• SQL Server Call to Report Manager through Internet

  Hi All, Is it possible to call report manager through ASP.NET application We are using Microsoft Active Directory to validate users. If the user type is admin then we would like to call the report manager so that the admin can create roles etc. Does anyone knows how to do this Report Manager uses the report server SOAP API to perform management tasks.

• Architecture how to install several programs in farm

  I am beginning in a project which is a total disaster. The company has done a lot of things that I don't like so much, but I am an analyst-programmer, so I have not voice for changing anything. One issue is that all the modules of the different programs are in all the machines of the farm (>100 servers). So the load is balanced between all of them. I think that this works but isn't a good policy: 1) Perhaps if a program fails It could make all the servers to fall down because it is in all of them. 2) The loads aren't understood, because it is difficult to view which projects are the heavy. 3) Having >100 IISs makes AS ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Inline code

  I have a .xoml file with some inline code (<x:Code> element). I can create and start the workflow if I compile the .xoml into an assembly with wfc.exe. Pointing an XmlReader to the .xoml and using CreateWorkflow will cause a validation error (can't use x:Code without creating a new activity Type). I'm guessing this is a security feature and the behavior won't change. Yes No Scott - I am not sure it is a security issue - but it really relates to how CreateWorkflow works - it doesn't compile anything - so the Code element won't work. You can also compile the xoml with the WorkflowCompiler and then execute the wo ...Show All

• .NET Development An economical way of filling a listbox?

  An economical way of filling a listbox I fill an authors listbox using the table adapter. It's one thing with a lookup table with 30 or so rows, but I have hundreds of authors.  Above the listbox the user has a choice of adding another author(s).  When that form closes the AddAuthors button refills the table adapter. Is there a more economical way of doing this   I don't need to move among the authors or delete them.  I have a separate form for that.  This addform merely fills some textboxes and listboxes then uses an insertquery to add and close.
