• SQL Server Can't set varbinary(MAX) in Visio 2005

  Why can't I use the new types in Visio 2005 When ever I type in MAX - it complains that MAX is not an integer You need to do the following ( I will assume that you are creating a database model diagram): 1. Create new database model diagram 2. Go to Database -> Options -> Drivers 3. Select "Microsoft SQL Server" in the default driver for Visio 4. Click Setup 5. Pick "SQL Native Client" for ODBC drivers to use 6. Go to preferred settings tab and select 2005 in the preferred version drop-down under DDL script generation 7. Now when you create an entity and create a new column will see varchar(MAX), nvarchar(MAX), varbinary(MAX) a ...Show All

• Windows Forms Upload a file from Client to Store in SQL

  I have a web form where I want the client side users to be able to attach a word document in the record. Can anyone point me in the right direction Depends on your requirements: 1. Do you need to store the document itself in the table 2. Will storing the location of the file be good enough Speaking abstractly here, and only about point two; you can upload the document to the web server in a predefined location, i.e. an uploads folder and then stored the path / file name in the SQL Server table or just store the file name if the folder will be constant throughout the lifecycle. You will need t ...Show All

• .NET Development Incorporating multiple files into an Object in Word.

  I have recently learned how to render XML documents using XSLT stylesheets. What I have also done is to create another html page that uses javascript to load the xml document and apply the stylesheet entirely on the client side. The reason I am doing this is so that I can embedd these files into Word documents. However, what I don't know how to do and whether it is possible is to merge all 3 documents into one object, so when a user double clicks on the object they will be shown the XHTML document in a rendered format on their browser. So, the files would be: file.xml style.xsl render.html (contains the javascript to load the p ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista A new outlook on Windows Vista

  Hi! I am fascinated by the way in which Microsoft plans to change the nature of operating systems radically. Vista promises a better future -- lots of new data exchange solutions, better information organization and an easier GUI. It looks very exciting to me. However, there is still some doubt whether Vista will really be able to define the new wave of technology. I've been a user of Windows for the past 9 years, and have been accustomed to it (one reason I'll accept Vista quickly). I'd like to point out a few things that Microsoft should improve in order to gain more popularity (and market share ). Of course, I'm not a Microsoft empl ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How should the baseless merge work?

  I tried it between branches that had the same ancestor, but were not directly branched. I got conflicts for every file, even if the file content is identical. Is the baseless merge useful at all We wanted to err on the side of caution; so every file in a baseless merge generates a conflict -- making any assumptions about what the user wants in a baseless merge scenario is, as we sometimes say here at MS "Handing the user just enough rope to shoot themselves in the foot with" :) We don't check file contents at the merge stage, so we don't have that opportunity to at least skip the files which are ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Why is 'Drop' outside of source control?

  I'm sure a familiar site for a lot of people working with Team Foundation at the moment is a build machine file system littered with a folder after folder of previous builds in the drop location and it seems a bit odd that there is no provision for having the output of the build also placed in source control rather than clogging up the build machine, is there any particular reason for this So, OK, I could extend my team builds 'AfterBuildDrop' target to checkout the previous drop from source control and checkin the new one overtop and giving it a sensible label. I then want to be able at a later date to get against that label and publish to ...Show All

• SQL Server Error Opening Report in Report Builder

  I try to open an existing report definition like "Bug Rates" (or any other ones for that matter) and always recieve an error with this: "Server data sources do not match RDL". Has anyone experienced this or know of a way to fix this It appears your report has multiple data sources in it, which means you probably built the report in Report Designer. Report Builder expects the report to have exactly one data source -- a report model. It has many other limitations as well, so opening an arbitrary RD report in RB is generally not supported (although vice-versa is fine). ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to read *.txt file contents into CString object????

  Hi, I like to read the contents of a txt file into CString object in MFC program. Now, I use ifstream to read the contents, but it can read into char array only. Do you have any ideas Thanks, vcboy What's wrong with reading it into a char array (can the *.txt file contain Unicode characters - if it can then char is not the right choice) and then creating a CString from the array ...Show All
