• SQL Server Drag & Drop Multiple Query Files Into Management Studio

  In SQL Server 2000, you could have a Query Analyzer (QA) query window open to a particular database, and drag and drop a group of query files from Windows Explorer on it. QA would then open a query window for each of the files, and automatically default it to that database. I am trying to get the same functionality in SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, but it nags me with the "Connect to Database Engine" dialog box for every file. W ...Show All

  I'm using WinFX December CTP, ASPNET 2.0.50727, Windows Server 2003 SP1.

• SQL Server Use triggers to print reports?

  Hello I'm writing an application to manage order compilation. Users have smart devices with them to link the order to tables. Once the order is linked the device sends data to SQLServer via SQLClient. Actually there's a windows service listening on the server for TCP/IP calls, after sending the data the smart device sends a TCP message to the service. The service prints the order report to the kitchen. What I'd like to do is use triggers, so whe ...Show All
