• SQL Server Setup of user-defined columns with eye on reporting

  I'm looking for a best practice for creating user-defined columns that allows for not-overly complicated methods for reporting. For instance, a user or admin adds a few columns specific to his department, including descriptive and/or "column" names. He then wants to create a report that includes these columns along with some of the default columns. I'm thinking that for the novice or regular users, setting up report models would suf ...Show All

• .NET Development WseWsdl3.exe and C++/CLI

  Hi Guys, I'm I right in assuming that C++/CLI is completely unsupported at this point for WSE 3 The VS wse settings wizards don't work with C++/CLI projects (again), but that's fine, and I can live with that. However, it seems that WseWsdl3.exe doesn't support it at all, either. That is, unless you count generating the wrong type of proxy silently with no warnings or errors correct behavior. What I mean by this is that if you ask WseWsdl3.exe ...Show All
