• Smart Device Development GetCurrentProcess()

  Hello, Can anyone help me, how can I find (actually I need to Prevent runing same program) GetCurrentProcess() from C#.net for pocket PC. When I try to use like: System.Diagnostics.Process using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.ComponentModel; ---- ---- System.Diagnostics.Process ERROR: 'Process' could not be found ..... Thanks, Leo The most common way to do that is to use mutex.

• Windows Forms managing large amount of controls...

• Visual Studio Branching in VSS 2005

  Does anyone know if VSS 2005 still enforces branching on a file by file basis We have numerous systems within our organisations and would develop multiple concurrent versions. We have been reluctant to do so because merging on a file by file basis is too time consuming. Yes, branching in SourceSafe 2005 is still file-based. However, some additional options are supported at the command line. For instance "ss branch" & "ss merge" now support the recursive command option (-R). See the early documentation at: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/d6x776hk(en-us,vs.80).aspx http://msdn ...Show All

• SQL Server executing a package from T-SQL

  Is it possible to execute a package in a trigger or stored procedure For most practical reasons, no. You could use xp_cmdshell to call DTEXEC which will execute a package. This will run your package synchronously, so doing this in a trigger would generally be a very bad idea, as this would block the transaction from completing during the execution. If trying to reference the data from the transaction that invoked the trigger then you will be blocked as well as this has not been committed yet. Long running transactions are generally a very bad idea. Another method would be to create schedule job th ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro _screen.ContinuousScroll problem

  I noticed this problem just this morning after spending many hundred hours debugging my app for the past few months when everything worked just fine. This is the setup which is hardly unusual. There is a function in a prg file and a Click method that calls it. There are a couple of print statements like: "coimng out of the function: "+numeric_id and such in the function(s) and one in the Click method. All output is character strings. The button is clicked many times during the debug. I get only one line of output out of the function but the rest of it is overlapping this first line no matter where it is coming from. The ...Show All

• Architecture Lookup table architecture

  I come across the situation where there are many lookup tables with simple look up table structure in general. In database design I am anticipating each table with type and status looup along with some more lookups. In total if I have 250 data tables, it will take 500 lookup tables which will have 1500 DAL stored procedures and 1500 ins/upd/del triggers. I came across a way to simplfy this architecture by putting code and codeoption tables using combined lookup into one lookup table. I can write custom constraints to enforce database integrity. I want some expert advice. Do you see any issue with this kind of approach I used this earlier ...Show All

• Visual C# searching the multiple words found in the text

  hello genius guys, i am trying to search the multiple words found in a text file in a single loop. what i want to do is that: when i enter the words like: "am, words, to" etc.. then it should find those words in the text file or let me say in this message board. i am able to search them by using only the for loop by passing single word at a time. also, making my search style more complicated i need to find those words also which contain the above substrings. eg: if i enter only "or" then it must find the chracters "or" in the word "words". i guess u get my point. i am thinking to use ...Show All

• .NET Development Will AnyCPU cause binaries to run as 64-bit on x64 machine

  I used VS2005 professional to compile 18 .Net assemblies using the AnyCPU platform setting in configuration manager. I also have a startup executable that calls into one of the GAC libraries to start/run the program.  I compiled both the program and all assemblies on at 32 bit Windows 2000 OS using the "AnyCPU" platform setting On the 64-bit computer running XP-Professional(64)...

• SQL Server Agent Proxy accounts not listed

  Hi, I just created a new proxy account. Creating credentials wasn't any problem (my NT user), creating the proxy (for all subsystems) also. But when I look at the subsystems in the SQL Management Studio I don't see the new proxy! I refreshed it, restarted it, no chance. I also tried to recreate the proxy but I can't since it tells me that it's already present. So where is it I need a proxy because my SQL Agent is running as local system but I need some credentials from a user to run a SSIS package. When I create a SSIS job step I only see "SQL Server Agent account" under "run as". I expected to see the proxy acc ...Show All
