• SQL Server Using Unicode in SQL Server

  Hi I'm have big problems trying to save Unicode information into my MS SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine. Alright, so the problem I'm having now is I'm working with MS SQL 7.0 and PHP5. I've trying to get information to save into MS SQL, however it is storing it all weird. When I save the information and try to view it in Enterprise Manager it shows it has random characters but for some weird reason I can output that information on the page correctly when I do a SELECT query.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. disposing of video when using "RenderToTexture"

  hi, i am using C#, feb2006 sdk and managed directx 1. i am exploring the Video class, especially the render to texture feature. setting the whole thing up was not much of a problem, except for the total lack of documentation of this class. anyways, after some trial and error i got it work quite nicely. the class seems well designed and - once you know how - is easy to use. my problem is, i haven't found a way of safely disposing of the video object. i ALWAYS get an access violation exception when i call Video.Dispose(). mind you: this only applies to the render to texture mode. the normal window output works fine. ...Show All

• SQL Server Dimension formula

  In a sales cube I have added dimension formulas to an account dimension. Example: NetRevenuePer100kg. The formula is: NetRevenue / Quantity * 100 When I use this in a MDX query like select {[DIM_ACCOUNT].[NetRevenuePer100kg]} on columns, {[DIM_PRODUCT].[WOOD]} on rows from cube where ([DIM_TIME].[2005].[Q1]) everything is fine. But using the following calculated member in the where clause: ... member [DIM_TIME].[MY_TIME] as 'Sum([DIM_TIME].[2005].[Q1].[Jan]:[DIM_TIME].[2005].[Q1].[Mar]) ... ... where ([DIM_TIME].[MY_TIME]) I get a value which is about 3 times greater than the correct one.

• .NET Development Gathering a list of System DSN 's through the ADO .Net toolkit

  Hi - I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post, so apologies in advance if it's not! I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to extract all the system DSNs from a machine in order to populate a drop-down box, without having to write code to access the relevant registry entries Is there a library provided in the .Net framework that will achieve this Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, Mike Hi Mike, If this were provided by the framework, it would be through the .NET ODBC data provider (System.Data.Odbc). However, although there is a native ODBC API to gather DSNs (SQLDataSources), ...Show All
