• SQL Server Model Information

  Is it possible to get hold of the fit parameters out of the prediction models in order to use them without going back to the database. E.g. With the linear fit model, y = ax + b, is it possible to get hold of a and b   This way I could use the fit equation and parameters directly within my C# code, rather than making many costly connections back to the database. Ok, so I've installed the generic viewer and ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista vista search technical documentation - where can I find it?

  Perhaps it is my search and research that is lacking, but I am finding it very difficult to get any technical / development info on the new search and how it can be used. I did see the chananel 9 movie, which told me about OLE DB provider and thumbnails. I have also gone through WinFX documentation in SDK. I have interoperability requirements that I want to examine urgently. I am sure it's out there amoung the tons of stuff. But I can't find it ...Show All

• Windows Forms When or how can I expect to be able to deploy reliably?

  I have found click-once to be a fabulous concept, yet totally useless, as it does not provide enough control over the installation process. I can't tell you how many times my setup kit projects have become corrupt, and I have had to delete and remake them from scratch. Most of my solutions contain at least 5 projects. Advancing versions and switching between debug and release seems to confuse dependencies. When I do get a kit built, it ...Show All

• Visual C# Delete controle does not remove code

  Is there a way to delete a control from a form and get rid of the code associated with it   During testing, I've wound up with several text boxes/labels that i'd like to get rid of.  The only thing Iv'e found so far is to search for each name and manually delete.  Why does not deleting the item from the IDE get rid of the code Thanks http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=143096&am ...Show All

• Visual C++ console from form

  Hi! How can I call a Console window from a form application Ok: I dug a little deeper and I think I know what is going on here. The problem is that by-default a Windows Form application does not have a console associated with it: so any calls to Console::WriteLine will send the output into a black hole (\dev\null). The case where the application will work is if you start it from a console window because in this case the application will ha ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS instead of raw T-SQL

  Hello.. Just as new as everybody else I'm a bit confused when to choose SSIS and when to choose T-SQL. I've worked with T-SQL for about 6years now. I have taken SSIS Hands-on-labs, read alot about SSIS, tutorials etc. The cause for my question is actually very simple. I've build an advanced (imho) extracting system in T-SQL. We have an urgent need for collecting data from alot af different servers spread out in our country. On each s ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Multisample problem causes a massive frame rate reduction

  I have been experiencing problems with my program when it uses any form of multisampling. The frame rate is normally 60 + FPS which is as expected. However when some applications draw to the screen the frame rate drops to below 10 FPS no mater how low I set the resolution. Most applications don’t cause this problem, but the start menu does and virtually every tool tip does. I have discovered that some applications causes this cons ...Show All

• Visual Studio Persistent Database Login

  I'm having a problem with a persistant database login when running a report through a visual basic .net application. The problem occurs on only ONE particular machine that the application is deployed on. The login will not work with valid information and after clicking cancel the report viewer control is blank. I'm using the push method to populate a dataset from a stored procedure and pass it to the report in a reportviewer control. To prevent ...Show All
