• Visual Studio Tools for Office get_XML

  I have several bookmarks in my document and I'm trying to retireve the Word html data associated with each programatically.  I thought I would be able to use this method: Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word. Bookmark bookmark; string data = bookmark.Range.get_XML( false );   This returns to me a lot of Word document tags, etc, but not the actual text within the bookmark. So, I tried the same call with 'true': Microsoft.Office.Tools.Word. Bookmark bookmark; string data = bookmark.Range.get_XML(  true );   This code threw a runtime exception. One problem here again is that y ...Show All

• SQL Server DTS Wizard SQL 2005 - Enable Identity Insert

  I have a large number of Access tables that I need to periodically bring to SQL using the DTS Wizard in SQL 2000 (via Ent. Man). I am only interested in bring over the data from the MS Access tables as I had a separate script (application drive) that would create the SQL tables. The problem is this: with SQL 2000 when bringing over the tables, the check box for 'Enable Identity Insert' for each of the tables was checked , this worked fine. With SQL 2005, this checkbox is not checked hence, I have to click 'edit' for each of the table data being brought over and check the 'Enable Identity Insert' box manualy.
