• Windows Live Developer Forums Is it possible to do this?

  I want to catch incoming/outgoing messages before they are added to the "Chat Window" in an MSN conversation. After I catch the message I want to add in a url for matched text, sort of like the wikipedia function in Trillian. (It matches words if they link up to a Wikipedia article and makes them link there). It would be ideal if I can add a custom right click menu too. I'd appreciate any help by anyone to send me down this path in the right direction. From what I understand the Activity API requires two users, whether a Bot or a Real person on one end. I don't think this is for me. I only want the user to see my changes to the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Version Control Events

  I have a listener for the Checkin event that analyzes changesets but the event is not being fired when a changeset is modified (i.e. after adding checkin notes).

• SQL Server SP permissions under SQL Server 2005

  I am just migrating to SQL Server 2005 and I am having difficulty figuring out how to do some tasks that were easy under SQL Server 2000. Specifically, I am not sure about object permissions. (This is what I did for SQL Server 2000) For database access by my web application, I added a SQL login for the IIS_WPG group. I then added a database user (name ASPNET) associated with this database login and give it only datareader and datawriter privileges. I would then 'double-click' the user, which would bring up the list of securable objects. I would then click the 'execute' permission for all of the user-created stored procedures. [do ...Show All

For this reason your question has not a simple response.  In the begining it depends of the way you use to work with crystal. If you use the clasic way - it is RDC reports - it means that you are using COM techonolgy as used with VB6. If this is the case, in deployment activities you probably will have the same issues registering compo ...Show All
