• SQL Server XML Bulk Load schema question

  I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction with a schema file for importing XML into a DB - the XML file has multiple sublevels, all of which need to be imported into a single table. I have it functioning "to an extent", meaning part of the file is imported - however, some of the sublevels have been driving me nuts, and I am not sure how to get it to work for all of the columns. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED - I've searched high and low for any documentation that would explain how to write up the schema to be able to import. Testing the schema I have created so far works - however, it does not import all of the ...Show All

• Visual C# TabControl

  I have a TabControl 'tabcontrol1', which i am populating with 5 tabpages at runtime. Now i also have another TabControl 'tabcontrol2' which has 2 tabpages of its own already. I want to add 'tabcontrol2' on every one of the 5 tabpages of 'tabcontrol1' when they get created during runtime. Any suggestions ! Create tabControl2 as a customControl.

• Software Development for Windows Vista I got only one thing to say...

    I tried to contact mr. Gates for several months, but there was no answer to my letters. I tried as well to contact other's in the Microsoft Cooperation, but with no success. I had and certainly still have some great ideas to combine with the Vista OS... and many more ideas that would probably deal with the open source madness. But, as you know, there are two sides to this war, Microsoft and Google... I assumed Google would be very interested in my proposal, and I was extremely correct! My sites can definitely affect a great number of teenagers which are going to be the next generation of technology, and might understand, w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System What is TFS RC?

  Can anybody explain me what is TFS RC (Team Foundation Server Release Candidate) Thanks Thanks Chris. From what I've been able to dig up, once we've upgraded from RC to Trial, then all we need is our valid Product ID (from our license) in order to turn off the Trial status. But, that's a headache that I don't have to deal with at the moment. Gotta let the IT lady have some fun. She's in the process of messing with it now and will find out for sure by next week. ...Show All

• SQL Server Excel Source: not to import blank rows

  I am trying to load data from an excel file, how do I use SSIS so that it won't import blank rows in the source excel file Thanks in advance! As with other databases, you'll need to use a WHERE clause to exclude rows that you don't want. There is no such option available on the driver, the connection manager, or the Excel source or destination. -Doug   ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Overprint, knockout or trapping in XPS?

  Just wondering out overprint/knockout would be handled in XPS. That is, black text with a cyan background might be overprinted to deal with registration problems. In PDF files, the text object has the attribute of whether it knocks out or overprints. I am not finding a similar setting in the XPS spec. Trapping is another issue, but does not need to be specified in the document. Thank you for this info. The "painters model" term is a bit misleading, as far as a name goes, becuase if I first paint a whole area with, say, light yellow, then I draw text with solid/opaque black, even though I should on ...Show All
