• Visual C++ 2005 Resource Editor trashes non-English languages when you edit any dialog

  I have an application that has resources in 11 languages, including Chinese (CHS), Hungarian and Polish. These three are especially challenging because they use a non-English code page - Chinese uses 936 and Hungarian and Polish use 1250 (English and western-European languages use 1252). I am not using Unicode but rather just single byte characters sets for all languages except Chinese which requires MBCS (two byte characters). MFC an ...Show All

• SQL Server Simple recovery and Full backup

  Hi MVPS/MS Experts: Pardon me and my ignorance for asking this question. I just want to understand the backup architecture more clearly. According to BOL (both in SQL 2k and SQL 2k5) in simple recovery mode trasaction log backup is not possible since the log is truncated on checkpoint which is true. Also we know that FULL backup backups both the db and transaction log as well. My question is what happens when a database is in simple recove ...Show All

• Visual C++ Using DataGrid

  I've to change the values displayed in a datagrid (I mean I have to change the database). I watched in the code generated by the .NET, but it's ununderstable for me yet... Assuming you are using VS2005, right click on your datagrid and click on properties. Under the Data section, take a look at the DataBindings property and click advanced. I believe you can specify the source of your data there. If you are not using VC2005, you can probably ...Show All

• SQL Server How to turn off Auto Recovery in SQL Server Management Studio 2005?

  Auto Recovery kicks in about every 5 minutes in SQL Server Management Studio 2005. Over a slow network connection, SSMS stops responding until the Auto Recovery completes. Auto Recovery can be turned off in Visual Studio 2005 but I have been unable to find how to turn it off in SSMS. This has nothing to do with the Auto Recovery feature of SSMS. I am also looking for how to change/turn off the Auto Recov ...Show All
