• SQL Server Message compression

  We have run some tests on our application. Average message is about 2.5 MB. Messages are send once every 30 minutes. This is 3.5 Gb per month for one site. Now we already have three sites that will be sending this messages. This will be VERY high load on the WAN channel, and will cost us a LOT of money . Isn't it possible to add some compression XML should compress very well, this feature will make brokers more useful. Service Broker messages are not required to be XML. They can simply be blobs. So you could perform the compression and decompression fairly easily in your app and send compressed messages through the Broker. That way you ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Database monitor activity???

  Hi, I was wondering if workflow has something similar to event monitoing. Something like Filewatcher and MSMQ event subscription but on database. what i want to do is, if there is a change in a table's data, i want to kickoff a new workflow instance, but I don't know if I should use timers to poll the database. thanks, Hiten The responsibility for that would reside with the host application, and there is no built in Workflow functionality for that. In your instance, you could have a trigger on the table in question, and this could signal the host application to start the appropriate workflow. Th ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Web test failing RequestFailed: The value of the date string in the header is invalid.

  All webtests I run from VS2005 RTM are failing with a response of: RequestFailed: The value of the date string in the header is invalid.

• .NET Development How to send a string from one program to another?

  Is there a way to send a (small) string from one program to another assuming that both programs are on the same PC    I have tried using a tcp client and server connection between the two programs.  This works, but I was wondering if there was a more efficient way to do this. Thanks for any ideas, MisterT   Use System.Messaging namespace. One app creates a queue or both and use can send object to each queue. Just think in real world terms. The Message object under System.Messaging is a letter and the queue is the letter box. The Windows OS comes with Message Queuing which will deliver ...Show All

• Visual Basic editing DataGridView cell content

  I am developing a VB.net Windows app in VS2005. I make extensive use of DataGridView controls. I want the use to be able to edit the data in the DataGridViews. I have EditMode set to EditOnEnter for all DataGridViews. Data retrieved from the SQL db will be fine but I want to make sure that the data entered new or updated by the user is of the right type so I tried to code the CellValidating event to validate certain cells. I want to make sure that, for example, a DataGridViewTextBoxColumn used for dates is actually holding a date before I call a stored proc. to store it in the db.

• Windows Forms DataGridView Problem

  Hi All, I recently uninstalled VS2005 BETA 1 and installed VS2005 beta 2.  The new beta 2 seems a little more stable, but I ran into the following problems: 1.)   I have a base user control "A", which contains a datagridview.  This user control is inherited by user control "B".  With beta 1 , I can visually add, edit, remove any column in the datagridview using VS2005 IDE designer.  With beta 2, I can't no longer edit the columns interactively using the designer.  Beta 2 only allows us to edit the column on the base level. 2.)  With beta 1, I set the AutoGenerateColumn to false, when my code bind ...Show All
