• SQL Server "Too low memory" and XML in cache

  Hi, I've read that the parser can use 1/8th of the available memory for the xml-cache, but I've run into this limit much sooner than I'd expect. I'm not using "sp_xml_preparedocument", but rather operating on columns with XML as datatype. This means I don't have the handle to the document and can't use "sp_xml_removedocument" to free the memory. It's a simple application written in C#, so should it be sufficient to & ...Show All

• Windows Forms Updates only with ClickOnce

  I have an application that can not be published with clickonce because it needs to install assemblies in the GAC. So I can build an MSI package to take care of that, but then is there a way to let the program get updates with clickonce Thanks, ryan There really isn't a way to install an app with Windows Installer (MSI) and then hook into ClickOnce updates. You need to install the app with ClickOnce to get the u ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Accessing TFS without Windows Integrated Security? (Internet Access)

  From what I see after an installation of Beta 3 is this Web Site on Port 8080 with integrated authorization. I am thinking of changing this to basic authorization and after that publishing the site over SSL with an ISA server. So that it looks like that: Client - SSL (Port443) -> ISA - HTTP (Port 8080) -> TFS Is it really that easy or what is the recommended way of achieving this Does the Client in VS2005 offer a way to enter credite ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Unable to play WMV on WMP10 on PocketPC

  I'm not sure if this is right place to ask this question, apologies if I'm out of line. I'm trying to play a video file (encoded as Windows Media Player 9 Screen) on a Pocket PC running Windows Media Player 10 Mobile on Windows Mobile 2003 SE (it's a Dell Axim X50v). I get the sound but no picture, so I'm guessing I'm missing the WMP9 Screen codec. Does anyone know how I can fix this Thanks in advance. that def ...Show All

• .NET Development VS2005 Dataset Designer Bug?

  Hi I seem to be having an issue deleting datacolumns from a datatable created using the dataset designer (hope that's clear!). I have created a dataset with two datatables based on SQL Server 2000 tables. I can't seem to delete any of the datacolumns that make up the datatable. I can change names, modify, etc but if I try and delete the datacolumn I get the following error message: Failed to delete object(s)'{0}'. {1}. The only optio ...Show All

• Smart Device Development TCPClient Connection Emulator vs. Device

  Hello, I am working on a project which enables a Pocket PC device (Pocket PC 2003) to connect to a server via a TCP/IP connection.

• Smart Device Development ARM data misalignment crash

  I'm new to Windows CE development but I'm facing crashes in bugfree code which is a mystery to me.

• SQL Server ssis security short coming, major issues

  Hello, I feel like ssis encryption model has a serious flaw. Especially when linked to SQL Agent jobs. I have posted and others have posted messages about this. Something is plain wrong with ssis encryption keys and password protection. Also, you do not have the choice not to protect the packages. In my case, protecting packages is completely useless.
