• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Modal Dialog Window Always Being TopMost Window Relative to the Parent Window

  Is there anyway to make a dialog window appear always on top of the parent window If you change the dialog windows ShowInTaskBar property to false and you switch applications and then switch back, your application becomes unusable. The parent window hides the dialog window and you effectively can't do anything anymore as you can't get to the dialog window. I know there is a TopMost Property that I can set, but that makes the window the absolute top window (i.e. appear on top of every window open). How would I go about making the dialog window the topmost window relative to the parent window Thanks, Kevin ...Show All

• SQL Server Configurations

  I have read many posts about configurations. However, in practice, I cannot solve a problem that is bothering me. I have connection managers (that manage SQL Server 2005 connections) configured in a local package. I have ProtectionLevel = 1 (By the way, where do you state that you want it "DontSaveSensitive", etc ). When I deploy the package to another computer (using the deployment utility) though, I get the error "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager ... failed".

• SQL Server I'm retarded and need help with Derived Column or Script Task

  I am moving data from an oracle database to sql server. Two of the source fields are dates, which sometimes contain values I know to be incorrect ('0001/01/01' and '1900/01/01'). I'd like to use either the derived column or script task (or any other appropriate one) to update these incorrect values (in both columns) to null before inserting into sql server, smalldatetime field.
