• Visual Studio Express Editions visual basic express or visual studio professiona? which one?

  I'm a developer who has downloaded vb express and sql server express for my home computer. I wanted to know if I should break down and buy visual studio 2005 professional or should I just stick with the express version of vb. My funds are very limited and my skills as a windows developer are still emerging. I'm not yet a great windows developer. I will use vb/sql express for personal projects and learning and possible small business applications.Bottom line.. will the express version do for me instead of professional version Although I haven't used the class designer, it would be nice to use it if I need to and express has no class desi ...Show All

• Windows Forms Failed to create component 'AxHost'. How to remove reference???

  I'm using VS2005 Beta2 with a VB windows-application project. Within the project I would like to use a VB6-OCX. The first time I place an UserControl (that is provided by the ocx) on a form allthing works fine. Then, when I recompile the ocx for some reason I have no chance to use the the ocx anymore in my project. If I start a new VB project I can use the newer ocx without problems. Just the old project is not able to use that newer ocx. Whatever I do. I guess the recompiled ocx itself is not the problem. I have compiled it  in VB6 with project compability, but I also tried it with no version compability. The following error message ...Show All

• .NET Development console output

  I am making my first steps in C#. I am used to another object oriented language (VDbase plus) but not .NET. I designed a form under Windows Applications. There is a button on it. I want to print a short message to the console. I thought this function will do it on click. It does not print anything. The statement Console.Writeline ("hello") if placed in Main() body does not give any output either. I did set the Project->AppProperties->General->Output Type to "Console Application" and when I click on the shortcut to the released .exe file the windows form I designed as well as the command prompt window (Console) appear together but I ...Show All

• SQL Server HTML String Rendering in a Report

  We have a "Comment" field that is saved as a HTML string to the DB. This field needs to be pulled into a report as rendered HTML. I know this has been hashed out before, but has anybody found a good solution in the past couple of months We are thinking about storing two versions of the Comment in the DB: one with HTML, one as simple text. Has anybody found this an acceptable solution I know it flies in the face of good DB design, but it seems the quickest, easiest solution... Any word if this will be fixed in the next major release of SSRS Can we expect this release any time soon Thanks for looking, Smith ...Show All

• SQL Server How to optimize data import with huge volumes and joins across data sources not all SQL Server based?

  I need to periodically import a (HUGE) table of data from an external data source (not SQL Server) into SQL Server, with the following scenarios: Some of the records in the external data source may not exist in SQL. Some of the records in the external data source may have a different value at different imports, but this records are identified univocally by the same primary key in the external datasource and in SQL Server. Some of the records in the external data source may be the same in SQL. Due to the massive volume of the import, I would like to import only the records which are different from what I have in SQL Server (cases 1 and 2 ...Show All

  Hi; In the java world I use IntelliJ and in the C# world I use Visual Studio wit ReSharper & nunitaddin.
