• Visual Studio VS Studio 2005 installed on xphome without web developer.

  As I don't have IIS installed on my xp home machine, when VS Studio was installed (beta2) on the machine it didn't install the web developer side of things.

Is there any way I can integrate the web developer into vs studio so i have one ide which is the whole point of Studio ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions vb6

  Where, oh where, is a free download of vb6 I am taking a class that is going to teach vb6, but the book for the class was only available used. Therefore the s-ware that WAS bundled with the book is no longer. I specifically need vb6, and was unable to find the download on ms.com. My textbook says it is available from ms for free. I need a rather specific answer, and thanks in advance from a novice! Not only is there no free download, the product is completely unsupported anymore. It's no longer shipping with MSDN, even. I'd suggest you try ebay, if you have a specific need to use VB6. VB6 is three versions o ...Show All

• SQL Server Conditional MDX ?

  I've got a solution where I need to apply some adjustment to a measure for a given scope: Scope ([Organization].[Organization].&[13], [Product].[Division Temperature].&[Frozen], [Measures].[FOB]); This = [Measures].[FOB] - 1.25; End Scope ; This works fine, but given that this solution uses role based security to limit access to specific dimension data, there are some roles that don't have access to the [Organization].[Organization].&[13] and the MDX fails parsing. Is there any way to make a conditional MDX that I can use to only apply the given MDX SCOPE when the role has access to the dimensions used in th ...Show All

• Windows Forms Setting ComboBoxes invisible

  Hello, I am using .net 1.1 framework on wxp pro. I am setting a panel that contains comboboxes invisible. When I set the panel back to visible, the comboboxes are set back to index 0 instead of retaining the value previously set. Is this normal behavior How can I prevent this from happening Thanks, Paula I'm not sure about why that occurs, but if you are looking for a workaround then: record the values before, then reset the combobox values after the panel is made visible. I use this same process when applying filters to my combobox source lists. -nate ...Show All

• SQL Server Control Flow setup

  Is it possible to setup a Control Flow at the solution level rather than at the package level I'd like to setup a Control Flow that truncates multiple tables in a staging database then runs multiple packages that reloads those tables. Each package has a Control Flow tab that seems to be specific to the package. Is it possible to set something up that governs the execution of multiple packages Thanks. SSIS contains a task called the "Execute package Task" which does it exactly what it says on the tin. It is ideally suited to the scenario you mentioned. -Jamie ...Show All
