• SQL Server ON SCHEMA :: schema_name

  Hi, Could you explain what a scope qualifier is (the two "::" colons) and what it is used for Thanks. SQL 2K5 This :: syntax is covered in the BOL topic for the GRANT, DENY, and REVOKE statements. To elaborate on Niels's post, you need ALTER permission on a schema and CREATE TABLE permission to create a table.  Also - note that ALTER permission on a container like a schema or database gives the grantee the ability to DROP contained objects as well.   So if I give you ALTER permission on schema S, then you can DROP tables (or procs or views or ...) in S. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Sample Projects

  I have been hunting for examples MSF projects , I noticed on this forum that were plans to provide some . I was wondering how that is progressing. I am currently trying to understand how documnets will look and feel and hang together. Whilst I know there are templates they down't really help. It is so hard to build a sample that everyone can relate to. As such, in the MSF class, we take everyone though class-long example of a company that builds a bookcase. It sounds light-weight, and it is, but everyone gets the main points: what happens in the tracks and what happens by roles. I hope we expand & enha ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Activity Property values not available at runtime

  I am currently experimenting with a custom activity. We have a number of business rule objects which implement various, relatively complex data validation rules. The custom activity allows these business rule objects to be assigned to the activity and for parameters to be assigned as part of a workflow that links together a number of these business rule classes into a sequential [potentially brancing] workflow. So I basically have: BRActivity RuleClassReference ClassID ClassName ParameterCollection Parameter1 Name Value Parameter2 Name Value I've integrated these activities into an end-user design ...Show All

• SQL Server "Cannot open user default database"

  [2005 Developer Edition] In Management Studio I changed my default database to a user db.
