• SQL Server Load assembly from Stored Procedure

  Hi, Is it possible to load an assembly either from a byte array or from the disk at runtime from a CLR stored procedure. I have created a stored procedure that needs to load different assemblies depending on a query and then invokes a method (called execute() passing a string query as a parameter). From debugging the CLR stored procedure in .NET I have found that it is this line that creates an error:     Assembly myAssembly= Assembly .Load()   It doesnt matter if I attempt to load the assembly from it's byte array or from a ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to create a Wizard with Windows Forms?

  Hi i want to create a simple wizard for an application consisting of a series of windows that take date from the user and store it in a file. I wonder if its possible to create a wizard with Windows Forms I use Visual Studio 2003 and Visual C# standard edition. Thanks in advance Yes it's possible. There are a few articles online about creating Wizard so have a search around. But I'll cover the basics here. When you program a form you tend to put most of the logic behind the form. For example, on button click do x, y and z. With a wizard approach you'd might think of putting code behind each n ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Access 97 does not close after running code

  I have a number of access databases that do not close after I have run code attached to buttons on forms. All the databases read text files and open recordsets to write the data into my tables. I have ensured that I close each recordset and database object, and I set them to equal to nothing at the end of the code. I have tried using the repair option on the database, but I still get the problem. The only way I can close the Access window is from task manager. Any suggestions Per the support engineer: I understand that your Access databases cannot close after running some code. Please notice ...Show All

• Visual Basic Parsing/extracting multiline fields

  I have a very large sequential file in which each data field is delimited by the same unique string (//, specifically). Each field of data is multiline. I would like to iterate through the file, extracting each field of data for purposes of parsing subfields and recording the offset of each field of data. Unfortunately, I can not identify a method that extracts/parses data fields that span multiple lines. TextFieldParser seems like a nice option, but it seems single line oriented also. I realize I could read each line of the file sequentially and concatenate each line until I reach the delimiter, but I would like a more efficient metho ...Show All

• Visual Studio Permissions problem?

  Hi, my company is using VSS with Visual Studio 2005. VSS is installed on the local Domain Controller (yeah, I know, not recommended). There were 5 developers working on a project, and they could access the database just fine. When 2 others arrived and accounts were created for them, they couldn't access the source trees anymore. I mean they're able to log in, and they see the project names, but when they click "get latest version" an error pops up saying "Error...access denied." Now I've tried setting the permission to full to just about everyone on the VSS server share, and this error keeps popping up. Can anyone help me ...Show All
