• SQL Server How to read XML data from SQL data field?

  Using RS2000 I have a field in a SQL DB which contains data stored as an XML string. Is there an easy way to parse this string into data without moving to SS2005 I have builts a parser in SQL, but I would like to know if RS had a way to directly read this. If not, is there a method in RS2005 which handles this type of data The only way to really do this in RS2000 is to create your own custom data processing extension that encapsulates the code you have written to parse the Xml. There are quite a few examples online. In RS2005, you can use the Xml Data Processing Extension, which is designed for ret ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System sqlservr memory usage at 2GB

  I was just poking around on our TFS server investigating some unrelated issues, and noticed that sqlservr is using 2GB of memory (1GB physical, 1GB virtual), while msmdsrv is only using 225MB total (113MB physical, 114MB virtual). This machine has 2GB of RAM on it, and Task Manager shows about 450MB "Available". From the backups, it looks like we only have about 160MB of data (TFS dbs+reporting+STS). We have about 5 users using this machine. Is this normal I'm guessing SQL can't go any higher since I'm 32-bit with no /3gb or any other memory features. Yes, this is normal.

• Software Development for Windows Vista HandleFault and exception handling

  From what I can tell, if I have a custom activity that throws an exception, this activity's HandleFault method is called, but the exception/fault really isn't 'handled' unless there is a fault handler setup for the thrown exception type; right And, in such a scenario, the HandleFault method of any containing/parent activity is NOT called, but the exception is propagated up to them if not handled at a lower level. Is this the way that it's supposed to work   If so, is there any way to have the HandleFault method of the parent (or even top-level workflow) activity to be invoked when an exception is thrown from a child activity ...Show All
