• SQL Server Keep all servers registered and connected

  I have 5 servers in my Server Mgmt Studio divided into 4 groups, Local Production Test Development In Sql 2000 Enterprise Manager would put the little green arrow next to your db if it was connected, I noticed that Sql 2005 does do that but it wont allow me to keep all 5 servers connected and I need them all to stay connected.

I have deleted the registerd ones and re added them and still no difference. How can I keep all servers registered and conne ...Show All

• .NET Development Jscript runns out of order

• Visual Studio Crystal Reports Deleloper > Into > VS 2005 Standard Ed.

  Hi, I was going to ask this in the " Visual Studio 2005 Standard vs Professional " post, but it is locked. Has anyone tryed to intergrate Crystal Reports into the Standard Edition. Instead of upgrading the the Pro Edition. Just wondering I might try it myself, and maybe answer my own question. Thanks for any help Steve I did ask this question at a Microsoft demo of VS2005 and I was told that you will need VS2005 Pro. If you do not own Crystal Reports XI you will have to purchase it or use the version that comes with VS2005 Pro which is X. Just to install release 2 requires that you have a valid key for XI.

• Visual Studio export each page on different pdf file

  Hi! I have a dataset containing two related tables. The parent table contains many rows. Each of them normally creates a page in my report. Is it possible to export each of these pages into separate pdf files The most simple thing to do would be to loop through each row, copy  it to a new dataset, copy also the child rows and then perform the export to the new dataset. Can you think of a more elegant  way to do that Thanks Dimitris Thanks Mark, I think this will do the job for me. I was wondering though: When does the actual rendering of the report takes place I hope that if I execute the Export method several t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Problems installing Visual C++: install hangs & 100% cpu

  I meet or exceed the system requirements: WinXP SP2 Over 3GHz Processor Pentium 4 w/HT (not sure if you need to know this or not) 1GB RAM 50GB available hard drive space I already had the .NET framework installed, so I uninstalled it as directed, and rebooted my computer. I then tried to run the install. It tells me that it's loading up and gets to the " This may take a moment or two" message. The load bar gets to about 3/4 of the way across, then stops. The processor usages shoots to 100%. Trying to kill the process closes the little install window with that last message, but the program continutes to run.

• Visual C# Unloading an Assembly

  Hello, I read in one of the Blogs that an Assembly cannot be unloaded. It has to be loaded into a AppDomain and then unloaded. I have tried that. Take a look at the following code. AppDomain newDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("NewDomain"); Assembly myAssembly = newDomain.Load(AssemblyName.GetAssemblyName(assemblyPath); After doing Reflection on myAssembly, I used AppDomain.Unload(newDomain); There are a some other statements in the CurrentDomain. While executing, Iam getting the following exception: 'System.Runtime.Seri ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System In Web Tests, How to Validate the values on a grid ?

  I want to validate the values that are shown on a grid , based on the values that are selected on a Combo.(Herein internally, the grid gets filled, when the combo box value is changed.) I would also like to know the selected row from the grid, so as to try it... or else Manual testing has always been there at our help   You can do this with a validation rule.  If the value in the combo is displayed on the same page as the grid, then you could do it with one valistion rule.  If the value of the combo is on the previous page, then you would need to use an extraction rule to pull out t ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Cleaner designer-generated code

  I have some usability suggestions for the designer-generated code: Drop the "Attribute" text from attributes when they are applied. I know this is minor, but the attributes can run nearly off the screen. Please add a facility in the designer for adding the DefaultValueAttribute. When calling base.GetValue(...) in property accessors, don't use the fully-qualified namespace to the static DependencyProperty. Group all static DependencyProperty defenitions at the top or of the class. Sort attributes alphabetically when you apply them. I know this one is nit-picking, but it's easier to read when searching through a long list of attributes. ...Show All
