• Software Development for Windows Vista Correlation tokens...

  Hi, I have several workflows that need to make simultaneous exchanges with external methods and events through a DataExchangeService. To make sure each event is caught by the correct handler I’ve implemented the correlation attributes to the exchange interface. It all works fine, but I find it tedious to set up the parameters and properties related to correlation on the different activities in the workflow. I do not understand why this has to be as complicated as it is now. Why have Microsoft used a parameter in the external method as a correlation key. This means that you rely on the workflow developer to specify a unique key. Would it not ...Show All

• Architecture Message vs Service.

  EmailValidation message vs EmailValidation Service. SOA is mostly about services and messages. Rather than create a number of services with different names would it be recomended if we create 1 generic service and have it request/reply messages. For ex: EmailValidation service. Instead of creating a service for email validation, create a validationService and have it process all the validation messages for the application. Just wondering how others are approaching this. Thanks Sailu Hi sailu, I think SOA is more about bringing people, business processes, policies and technology more closely aligned by using loosely coupled ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 Remote Connection Problem... Big Time.

  Hi, I installed SQL server 2005 express edition on my windows server and I had no problem with connecting it remotely through Management Studio, then I removed it and installed a full edition SQL server 2005. That's when it's gone all wrong. Now I can't remotely connect the server through Management Studio.

• SQL Server Secure Social Security number in my DataBase

  Hi, i have a data base in SQL 2005 and i it has many tables with confidencial information Like Social Security numbers, Credit card Numbers, etc. And i would like to encrypt this information or make something to make this info invisible to any hacker, or any person that logs on the server.

Any one has any idea Best Regards. The only true way to make things invisible to a ...Show All

• SQL Server Referencing SQLDMO in UNSAFE assembly

  I created a SQL Server Project in VS 2005, and tried to add a reference to SQLDMO Object dll. But the reference --> add reference, does not allow it. It does not work, even if I set the Assembly Permission Level to UNAFE/EXTERNAL ACCESS. Reason I'm trying to do this: We have a SQL 2000 stored procedure that uses SQLDMO using sp_OACreate to BCP files to database. We are converting to 2005 and because of SOX restrictions, I'm trying to replace the sp_OACreate part with external stored procedure written in C#. According to BOL, I thought atleast UNSAFE should support this, but it seems not. Probably, I'm expecting too much.. ...Show All
