• SQL Server Parameter Mapping in an Execute SQL Task

  I am trying to assign the same package variable value to three different parameters in a query. The variable contains the name of a database which the user will input during package execution. First I check to see if the database exists (if it does I drop it), then in either case I create the database. See code: if exists ( select name from sys.databases where name =   ) begin drop database ; end ; go create database ; go This is the error I am getting: [Execute SQL Task] Error: Executing the query "if exists  (  select name  from sys.databas ...Show All

• Windows Forms ToolStrip items disappeared

  All items on my ToolStrip control just disappeared. I can access the items in code but they are not visible on the ToolStrip control. Neither at design time nor at run time I can see them. Just clean ToolStrip. I just wonder if there is a way to get them all back without recreating I have solved it. I found out that when the very first ToolStripItem gets added to a ToolStrip control the Designer adds ToolStrip.Items.AddRange() statement. The statement is located where the ToolStrip properties are set. I didn't find such a string so I had to add it and all started working. I still have no idea why the Desinger deleted the line ...Show All

• Visual C++ Progress Bar assistance

  I am new to using Visual C++. I used a Control box in the Resource view tab to create the progress bar in the dialog box. This puts all the information in one file. In another file, I want to update the same progress bar so that it looks like it is downloading. How do I do that I've tried everything I could think of which is not much since I am new to this and they don't work. For example: one file Progress.cpp: Member variable,m_pBar, is what I created for Progress Bar using the class wizard. It was automatically put in this file.

• Visual Studio Express Editions capture Control-Enter keystroke

  In one of my programs I use e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter to tell when the Enter key is pressed while the focus is on a textbox.  I want to be able to capture when ControlEnter is pressed.  In the IntelliSense picker there is an option for CTRL modifier, but nothing for CtrlEnter.  So how do I combine the two to capture a ControlEnter keystroke   I tried e.KeyCode = Keys.Control + Keys.Enter but that doesn't work.  Thanks...     How about: If e.Modifiers = Keys.Control And e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then Debug.WriteLine( "you pressed control enter" ) ...Show All

• .NET Development C#/VB.NET on linux

  Hi, I have windows forms application writed in C# and VB.NET. How can I run it on linux Thank's Alexei Hi, In addition to what JBrown said, the .net framework is some-kinda ms-os dependent. I mean yes, you could run your program in a Linux OS. But not all .net functionalities are present. And as the previous post said " MS is not supporting the building of the .Net CLR for any non-MS OS " yes this is true, and by that, non-ms .net framework would always be 1 version behind...   cheers, Paul June A.
