• SQL Server Problems with LOOKUP component (repost)

  Hello, Can anyone address these: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=142849&SiteID=1 http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=142837&SiteID=1 -Jamie Jamie, It does make sense that you can't override the sql statement for a lookup component since you would typically connect to a relatively static table to import in a related column.

  Hi there I have no training in programming, but would like to start writing my own little programmes. In my work (civil engineer), I am increasingly frustrated by the lack of simple, time saving programmes to make my life easier, and hence the urge to write my own programmes. Of course, the start will be no more than programmes for one-off formulas, but having said that, I would like to (in many year's time) be able to write more complicated ...Show All

The way this is, I have to know C#, SQL for triggers and stored procedures, and LINQ for the in-code queries.  I don't see how this is going to make my life any easier. As I recall from the spec, the ...Show All
