• .NET Development Specify Initial Schema in Connection String for SQL 2005

  Is there any way to specify the Schema to be used for specific ADO.NET 2.0 connection   It defaults to dbo, which is how the previous release would of had to support it.  But if procedures/tables are seperated into different schemas within SQL 2005, then all lookups for the different tools (Like SQLDataSource configuration) only reference the dbo schema to fill information and would not see a procedure in the specific schema I want to reference. Thanks, Mike It appears the answer is no, you cannot specify the initial schema for use in SQL 2005. It is indeed frustrating that SqlDataSource configurati ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I use XSD in 2005

  I am a beginner with C# and I am trying to use datasets. I have been tiring to find some good books on how to use xsd or dataset class in VS2005 and haven’t' found much like this. Does anyone know of good examples or books I can buy that has this information. I understand Datasets (limited) but xsd just are confusing. Any help appreciated A dataset is a collection of tables.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Deploying Outlook Add-In (after following tutorial Part 2) - fixed!

  First off, it's worth saying that VSTO 2005 is excellent both as a product and as supported by all of the great articles and samples. Office has become a very important Hosting environment for enterprise applications and VSTO (and the community) is exactly what we need. I just finally got my Outlook Add-In to work with one-click deployment, but I needed to customize the SetSecurity project referenced in the Part 2 Walk-thru. I added a "trustTargetDir" parameter and when "trustTargetDir" is true, then the AddSecurityPolicy method uses "FullTrust" o the targetDir. In my case, I'm using Redemption.dll beca ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Runtime Workflow Design

  Scenario: An application allows multiple end users to define their workflow, then run the application based on that workflow. Real-world example: A defect tracking system wants to allow some clients to route new bugs to a manager and others to route directly to a developer. The nearest solutions I can think of are: 1) embed the designer in the application, 2) make the workflow be the most complex case and build in lots of if/elses, and expose those choices in the application. Both have their drawbacks. Any suggestions John Chris, Yes, you can do this. Look at Lab10 example. This hosts the designer and serializes ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Tutorials build but will not run

  I figured I would give DirectX programming a try since I've been finding myself frustrated with the old school ways of OpenGL.  I downloaded the October SDK and installed it, I am using Visual Studio 2003 Professional on a Windows XP Professional operating system.  This is running inside a VMWare machine.  I can run the example executables just fine, albeit in software mode, but it does work.  Now for some reason when I load the tutorial 01 solution (createdevice) and attempt to run it I get the message 'Could not initialize Direct3D...'.  I changed the exception handler in InitializeGraphics() function to output th ...Show All

• Visual Basic Updating a dataset help...

  Allright, well it seems simple enough, but I'm kind of stuck. First of all, I'm using VS 2005. I've run into trouble while trying to use the save on the navigator tool bar that automaticaly appears when you drop a table onto a form.

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Source Control - Get Latest not working properly - Files are not marked ReadOnly

  A couple problems with TFS Source Control. 1. Sometimes when getting latest, it will tell me that I have lots of conflicts because there are writable versions of a file in my working folder. I go and look and the file attributes are marked with an "A" instead of "R". This happens a lot and some of the files I never even worked on. Is there some way I can re-get everything from source control to overwrite all my files with the "R" readonly flag flipped. This also causes a problem when I try to edit one of these files that doesn't have the "R", it doesn't ask me to check it out. It seems quite random ...Show All

• Visual C++ Sometimes I need to do a clean/build on VS2005. Why?

  I've noticed when working on my VS2005 C++ application, that sometimes the debugger will report memory leaks or heap problems. I've learned that if I do a project clean and rebuild, that these problems go away. There are also cases where my app will get ASSERT failures that I resolve by doing a clean and rebuild. I have not been able to firgure out what I'm doing that is causing the incremental builds to produce these errors.

• SQL Server Stored Procedure runs but no records inserted

  I have just installed a fresh copy of SQL Server 2005 on a new server.  I transferred over one of my stored procs which has been working beautifully on another SQL Server 2005 server. This time though when it's run, It runs but doesn't insert anything into the destination table.  I recreated the tables that were on another server on this server by using the SQL query that you produce when  you do a Right-click | Script Table As | Create To | New Query Editor Window and simply copied and pasted the table creation sql script on my new server, changed the database name and it created it fine.
