• SQL Server Could not load file or assembly ADODB, Version=7.0.3300.0

  I have an application broadly deployed (about 10 computers). As of yesterday, two of these computers are unable to start the application, and failing with the error below. All other computers run the application just fine.

• SQL Server packages and data source views do not work?

  Hi, doing my first steps in SSIS I wanted to copy data from 2 different SQL 2000 database servers to a SQL 2005 Data warehouse. For not having to deploy additional views and procedures to the individual systems I chose to create a Data Source View to create an abstract view on the different data sources. I found out that I can have named queries pointing to the two different data sources in the same view. 1 Project, 2 Data Sources, 1 Data Source View with 3 Named Queries When I now add a Data Flow Task to the Control Flow how can I specify my DSV as Source for Transformations I even added both OLEDB Connections to the Connection Man ...Show All

• Visual C++ 2005 upgrade ports Floating Point Consistency incorrectly

  I have a fair sized project in Visual C++ 2003 that I ported to Studio 2005. It's taken a few days to track it down, but I have discovered that Studio ported the 2003 "Floating Point Consistency" project setting (under C++ | Optimization) incorrectly to the 2005 "equivalent" of "Floating Point Model" project setting (now under C++ | Code Generation). My 2003 project was set to Default Consistency (which is also the default from the App Wizard for MFC projects, as compared to "Improved Consistency" = /Op compiler flag). The upgrade of the project to 2005 set the Floating Point Model to &quo ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Webtest "hangs" while Submitting

  Actually, it appears to be hung before the request is sent, because the Request Detail window says "Request not yet submitted". I've got a webtest where, on a specific page, it always "hangs" while executing...  The main Test Progress window shows "Submitting" under the HTTPStatus column, and it stays this way for at least 4 or 5 minutes.  Test Results pane shows the test as "In Progress".  If I try to start the test again, I can't:  "The test could not be run because of the following exception: Cannot start more than one local run."  (The app is responsive, so it's not exactly "hung" but the test In Progress is n ...Show All

• Visual C++ access violation when running ported database solution (from VC++6 to VC++8)

  I am maintaining a supply chain database solution & am attempting to port it from VC++6 to VC++8(2005 native -NOT /clr) - the solution is composed of 45 projects (an .exe & 43 dlls & a lib) - it uses COM & ATL. I have managed to compile everything successfully after solving some initial errors caused by greater ISO C++ compliance(I think) of the form: was : m_spDBStock = m_spBLStock; now: m_spDBStock = ( const IDBRecordsetPtr &) m_spBLStock; //where m_DBStock is of type IDBRecordsetPtr,which is derived from ADODB::_RecordsetPtr Now a large part of the solution works fine, but a few method calls result in an ac ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System 404 response when trying to connect to team server

  Hi, I've finish up installing TFS on my server but I can't connect to it from my client (VS team system). When either pressing the "add server" button on the team explorer or Tools>Connect to team explorer server, I get a pop up with a 404 notice. Both client and server are the latest on MSDN.

• Smart Device Development Extremly Slow Performance in VS2005 B2!!

  I have two different systems that I installed VS2005 Beta 2 on. The main development machine is a P4 with a gig of ram, and plenty of disk space. The OS is XP Pro (SP2). I am trying to develop an app using Pocket PC 2003 (for right now), but the design process takes so long its almost not even worth trying! I place a grid control on the form, add a query, and then have it generate the data forms (Summary View & Edit Detail) and it takes almost 10 minutes to generate the screens. When I go to run the application in debug mode it takes almost 5 minutes to render the device emulator and deploy the app to the device emulator. I read ...Show All

• SQL Server OUTER JOIN table limit?

  I came across this statement from ASP.NET forum : "..There is a limit to the level for OUTER JOIN ANSI SQL limit is four after that you may get strange results. ..." . I did a little research but without getting clear answer from the SQL92 standard itself. I am wondering whether I can get help about this in SQL Server 2005 implementation here. I put this question in another way, How many tables can we use in OUTER JOIN(or INNER JOIN) in SQL Server 2005 Thanks. There is no limit in the ANSI SQL standard or SQL Server. In fact, the ANSI SQL standard doesn't talk about such limits anywhere. The ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Task Assigned To

  When creating a new task in TFS, the Assigned To drop down includes many different accounts by default. For example, it includes the TFSSERVICE account that we use to run TFS, and TFSSETUP which we used to install TFS. Is there a way to limit the list of people, or create exclusions I'd like to remove TFSSERVICE, TFSSETUP and several others from the list. Thanks in advance. Mark You can achieve that by modifying the Task work item type definition (you can export it using witexport.exe). Here you can specify users/groups/values you want to see in the list: <FIELD refname="System.Assign ...Show All

• Visual Basic The macro substitution in VB.NET?

  Hi Doea some one know how to perform macro substitution in .Net VB I've tried to read the Help - all in vain... With best regards! Hi, No, Macro Substitution has not been part of Visual Basic atleast after Visual Basic 5. I am not aware of versions before Visual Basic 5 - but I would assume that it has never been part of Visual Basic. However, people have had various workarounds such as Database queries or a select case statement to achieve something similar. Regards, Vikram ...Show All
