• SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP will not start

  Hello there, Is anyone having problems with the Management Studio Express tool. I was able to installed it and use it for a couple of days without any problems but then one day it stop working. Now when I run the program it does not do anything. Not error messages in the event log. Also, I uninstalled and reinstalled. I found that the Books Online are also contained within the VS 2005 MSDN Library. So you can reference what you need from there. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Compiling VS 2005 Beta2 to a mounted network share

  Hi, I tried to do the following.  Create a simple c++ hello world app over on a mounted network share (lives on a netapp box).  Created the project just fine, but when doing a compile, it fails.  Here is the build log file.  Any idea what is wrong   Clearly I have write permissions to the files. Ok, in writing this query, I decided to try it to a network share on another windows box (our server).  Again mounted as a drive.  It works fine there. So, this sounds like some kind of weirdness on the netapp box with permissions or something. If anyone has any insight, please let me know. Thanks. Bob. Build ...Show All

• .NET Development Socket, detect message boundaries for objects - working code?

  Hi, I'm stuck with a problem that is bugging me for days. I'm custom serializing objects and sending them across async TCP sockets. However, I have a problem deserializing messages when the receive is split up in different packet sizes and I just can't figure out how to get it right. The problem is, that all works fine for a couple messages but then the header size is read incorrectly (I'm sending a header for each messages that tells the length of the incoming message so I can detect the message boundary): 2005-11-21 16:13:12.0468|INFO|Test.Server.ClientCommunicator.Server|Received connection from: 127.0.0.1:1990 2005-11-21 16:13:12.109 ...Show All

• SQL Server Assigning XML data to variables

  Hi Guys... Need some assistance here again. What data type should I use for the variable that I receive from a resultset I tried setting it to object, but I encountered some problem later in the stage during the data flow because the XML source adapter cannot get the variable. I tried setting it to String but get some error during runtime because of invalid datatype. The main purpose here is actually to get the data from an XML column in a table and populate it into the XML Source Adapter so that I can do some transformations. Any ideas Thanks. Hi, Yes, this is definitely an issue.  In the next releas ...Show All

• SQL Server Using ASP.NET Session State in SQL 2005 with a Mirror

  I have SQL 2005 mmirroring sucessfully working in an ASP.NET 2.0 web application. I also have session state being maintained in SQL Server using the built-in functionality in ASP.NET. The problem is, even with "allowCustomSqlDatabase=True" and specifying a failover partner in the DSN, it appears that ASP.NET does not work with the failover partner. It always tries to get the session info from the "data source" server specified in the DSN. Is there a way to get the session state to fail over to the mirrored server without writing a custom session state provider Hi, Would yo ...Show All

• Windows Forms Imitate DataGridViewTextBox behaviour to add rows

  I'm currently developing custom datagridviewcells and facing the following problem: When entering the last row in a databound datagridview (the "new row") and focusing a DataGridViewTextBoxCell the editmode is initialized and the grid waits for input. After typing the first char, a new row is created and the row is bound to that row. I need to imitate this behaviour WITHOUT typing. I developed a custom datagridviewcell with its own datagridvieweditingcontrol but which method / property is responsible for adding the new row I tried to call Me .DataGridView.NotifyCurrentCellDirty( True ) but it doesn't work ...Show All

• SQL Server Help With "enableEventValidation"

  The "enableEventValidation" feauture is new for .Net 2.0 When I had a page that called back to itself through the use of a pushbutton, I recieved an error stating: Invalid postback or callback argument. Event validation is enabled using <pages enableEventValidation="true"/> in configuration or <%@ Page EnableEventValidation="true" %> in a page.

• Visual C++ SubclassWindow question

  Hi, I have created an MFC owner drawn control (Derived from CButton) that needs to do some initialization after it is created or subclassed. If the user explicitly calls MyCtrl.Create( .... ), I can handle the OnCreate() message in my control, so no problems. However, if the user attaches the control through DDX, this results in SubclassWindow being called and OnCreate() is never called. I know you can handle PreSubclassWindow() before the window is actually subclassed, but I need to do some initialization after it is subclassed. So Is there anyway in my class to know after it has subclassed a window Thanks in advance for any help. ...Show All

• .NET Development ASP template to traverse XML

  Hi, I am making a Flash application to display Halo 2 stats using the XML feed supplied by Bungie.net. When the Flash app is online it will not get any data from the XML feed, I have been told that this is because of security features in Flash Player 6+, that require the server which hosts the XML feed need a cross domain policy file, crossdomain.xml, which allows my domain to access the feed. I have spoken to another person who made a similar app who also had this problem. He advised me that he had made an ASP template to traverse the XML into a seperate feed that Flash is allowed to access by having a cross domain policy file for the ...Show All
