Visual Basic MSFlexGrid OCX license enforcement
My app has used a MSFlexGrid OCX control for many years. I cannot even say where the original OCX came from - the previous developer found it. After porting to Studio 2005 the app now complains that the OCX is not licensed (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/AddPost.aspx ForumID=29&SiteID=1) but only on certain boxes - in this case an XP box with only Studio 2005 installed. It works on WinXP and Win2k boxes with both Studio 2003 and Studio 2005 installed. On clean customer-installed boxes the install CD has worked fine in the past with 2003 builds of the app. The offending XP box did NOT have the key HKCR\Licenses\ 72E6712 ...Show All
SQL Server Deleting ReportServer TempDB
Hi, I need to free up some space in my harddrive and was wondering what the effects of deleting the TempDB would be. I am not using this machine to host any important reports. (I am using it as a development machine). my question is what happens when i delete the tempdb will it break the system and will i have to reinstall reporting services to get my reports working again You should never delete the ReportServerTempDB - RS will no longer work afterwards. The RS windows service should automatically cleanup entries in the ReportServerTempDB after they are expired (e.g. sessions expire after 10 minutes). ...Show All

.NET Development ExecuteNonQuery hangs
Hi All, I posted a question some days ago, but didnt get any response. I guess I didnt word it properly. I'll try my best this time.... This is what I did: Create Command(connection, myTransaction) Set TimeOut property Try myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() myTransaction.Commit() Catch ex as Exception myTransaction.Rollback() End try But the app hangs at myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() statement.

SQL Server How to browse a cube using a web browser
Hi, I would like to know how to browse a cube using a web browser. So far, my company is using excel to browse the processed cubes but they want to extend the access to other departements and therefore accessing and browsing cubes using a web browser would be more appropriate.

Visual Basic VB .NET/VB 2005 Express/ VB 2005
Hi. Ive decided to move from VB6 programming and Im not really sure where to go.. Ive got a copy of VB .Net 2003, and Ive also downloaded VB 2005 Express edition, with a possible view to getting hold of Visual Studio 2005 to program VB 2005. The problem (and confusion) that I have is - what is the difference, and which should I turn to Am I right in assuming that VB.NET 2003 and VB 2005 are different, or am I ok to learn .NET 2003 until the 2005 version comes out I know this might seem like a dumb question, but I want to move onwards and upwards and am a little confused, as I dont want to concentrate on 2003 if I'm going to be learning an ...Show All

SQL Server problem with SQL-Server 2005 CTP
I have received visual studio 2005 beta experience kit. My kit included a version of MS SQL-Server 2005 Developer Edition CTP ( Developer Edition printed on the surface of my DVD but I don't know it's true or not because I saw this page: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/2005/productinfo/sql2005features.mspx and there was not Developer Edition). I had a new and fresh Windows 2003 (without SP1) installed on one of my office PCs. So I decided to install visual studio 2005 beta 2 first and then SQL-Server 2005 CTP.
