• SQL Server Blank Error Messagebox Displayed at startup

  When I start SQL Server Management Studio an error message box with no text is displayed with the Exclamation ICON.  Everything seems to be working after clicking OK though.  Anyone else experienced this.  Also...  Why is it that I can't repair the installation from Add and Uninstall   Do I have to uninstall it to repair it The SQL 2005 is the Developer Addition with a new install... I haven't seen the empty error message box problem.  Does it still do that when you start Management Studio, or was it a one-time thing You should be able to repair your installation by clicking on the "Change" button rathe ...Show All

• Visual C# running a process from memory (as opposed to from the file system)

  I have an embedded exe (gpg.exe) in a class library I'm writing. my problem is I dont want to extract the executable to the file system, but instead would like to run the process from memory. Process / Start Info take a file system string path to start the process. any clues as to how I might be able to replace some part of that functionality so that I can load the executable from memory into that Process object am I chasing a lemming, or does anyone think this is possible I don't know in what way you embedded the gpg.exe in your class library. But if you can get an Assembly reference to the ...Show All

• SQL Server Self refrencing tree hierarchies and CASCADE actions

  I've already filed a bug on this but it hasn't been picked up yet, so I'd like to get at least some discussion and feedback. I mean doesn't anyone think this is something usefull to have quote me: I've had a possibility to see SQLServer 2005 on a MS developer's PC and I made him try to create a table that can't be created with MSSql2000. As this kind of tree rappresentation (I think it's called adjacency list) is the most common way in Operations Research (many uses: networking, optimisations etc.) I think the DB engine should be able to support them. I don't pretend I understand why it may cause problems but it's a valid requirement. Stra ...Show All

• .NET Development wininet,winhttp,autoproxy

  I am working in vb.net 2003 and cannot for the forseeable future move to net 2005. I really like net and managed code until I have to work with c++ to accomplish some task like determining the proxy server address for a web service application. I realize that wininet and autoproxy routines mimic what internet explorer uses to connect to the internet. I just find it difficult to work with these c++ routines in the vb environment. This is my question. Is there not some way in managed code to ask the Internet Explorer directly what it is using for a proxy server if any Thanks, Fred You could query the registry and find the ...Show All

• .NET Development MSMQ in a Network Load Balancing server farm

  Hi I have a slightly bizarre question based on the use of MSMQ within a load-balanced farm. In general, I can use load balancing to my advantage - I simply replace the physical host with that of the virtual server and I'm laughing. However I have one scenario where I need clients to send messages via MSMQ to the virtual server, but have only one (master) server in the farm process the messages. The master server is decided (very basically) by a race condition at start-up and subsequent health checks. It is possible that the master could switch at any time, depending on availability etc. My question is this: If I have only ...Show All

• Visual Basic Disabling Javascript/Ignoring a certain line of code?

  Hello, I've recently started to play around with the Visual Basic language and have decided to make a client dedicated to a game I play.

• Visual Basic Question about SaveFileDialog

  I can get it to work perfectly, but only if I am overwriting a file. I cannot get it to create a new file then save. Say, I type a filename into the Dialog instead of choosing one from the list. If I do this it won't work. What am I doing wrong. Enjoy! You can actually reduce it further if you really wanted to and all those properties can be set at design time if your really wanted by dropping those two controls on the form. Potentially reducing the code down to 4 lines of actual code.
