• .NET Development Code when called from procedures but not when called from button events!

  I have what I consider a weird problem.   I have two procedures, <scrsave> and <scrcopy>.   They run perfectly when I call then from button events as I did during debugging.   Now when I try the same procedures by calling them from code rather than button events they seem to not work.   The first saves a screen shot to a picture box while the second copies a portion of the screen shot to another picture box. &nbs ...Show All

• SQL Server Management Studio lists all databases

  I was under the impression that Management Studio wouldn't list any databases that a user doesn't have access to.  But if I create a new user and give them db_owner permissions to just one database, if they log into Management Studio, they are able to see all databases listed.  They don't have access to do anything further, but they can still see the list which I thought was handled better in 2005. I'm using the Sept CTP.  Is the ...Show All

• .NET Development Keeping Unmanaged DLL Used by P/Invoke in Memory

  I use a 3rd party DLL, written in C++, that I call via P/Invoke (C#.NET 1.1). Problem is this DLL takes about 3 times as long to call the first time it initializes that it does subsequent times.

  Is there a preferred way to obtain the size of a file stored on an FTP server using the 2.0 Framework The best I've come up with is to contact the FTP server via an FtpWebRequest object, with its .Method property set to W ebRequestMethods.Ftp.
