• SQL Server what is the hardware environment for installing SQL Server 2005?

  I have to spend an extra money on hardware if my PC hardware environment for installing SQL Server 2005 is not enough. Please tell me about it. It might be a RAM requirement I don't know.

• Visual C++ C++ /CLI Class Library Project Problem, Please Help

  I am accustomed to setting up our n-tier solutions such that each tier is in it's own project in Visual Studio.  We are migrating from C# to C++ /CLI with the Release Candidate 1 of Visual Studio.  Our first C++ /CLI project will be a relatively small Windows Forms application, and I want to have two projects, one for the Presentation layer (windows forms app), and one for a Database layer (c++ / cli managed class library).  This has typically worked well for us in C#. Here is our problem: Let's say our class library is called Database, and our Windows Forms app is called WinForm. After we create Database, we get by d ...Show All

• Visual Basic generate a collection class from a Stored procedure

  Hello everyone. I am new to collection class, but what I have done and used I like a great deal. Now the one thing I have found ( and this is more then likely a problem with my programming then the concept) that when I create a collection class is very slow to start with. Now I do not mean the actual coding, but rather when I create the class in when I load the app. Example: Sub Frm_load() Dim colEmployees as new Employees lstBox.Datasource=colEmployees End sub Public Class Employees Inherits collectionbase Public Sub New() Dim dt as datatable= ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio Express: Missing DataBases from VWD Project

  LOST DATA BASES I appear to be doing something stupid! I created a VWD express project that contains a database. In VWD the DB application works fine. I can see all my tables. VWD stores the DB in the applications area of MY DOCUMENTS in a project folder under “SQL SERVER Management Studio Express”. However, when I run the SQL Server Management Studio Express, I get a instance of the “(computer_name)SQL\express” that contains the System DB, but not the DB that I developed in VWD. After investigating I found the SQL DB for the Studio Express under MY COMPUTER, “Microsoft SQL Server” in a subfolder under "MSSQL" folder. Mi ...Show All

• SQL Server Creating a Table Of Contents

  I would like to create a table of contents on the first page in a report I'm working on.  I've been looking around for a couple of days now and have come up with nothing.  I'm wondering if I can hook into the document map to create a custom TOC, if not how else might I be able to do this.  I'm currently using the June CTP.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Brian Schmidt I have been working on this table of content thing for a week now. I have somehow found a solution for that. You can write an assembly containing a function which would take 2 paramenters the page number and your g ...Show All

• Visual C# A newbie question on Interfaces

  hi,    I'm new to C# and OO in general. I can't seem to undestand the pertinence of interfaces.   From my understanding, the interfaces define the signature of the methods while the class implements these methods. How is this better than simply doing away with interfaces and simply implementing the method in the class   Apologies for the rather novice question, an example to illustrate the pertinence of interfaces would be greatly appreciated. regards, Pat Arrays are kind of funky for some reason. I know the docs say that it implements the IList interface, but in playing around with it, the only way I can see ...Show All
