• SQL Server Create Extended Procedures in VS 2005

  Hi I am trying to write an extended procedure that accepts a string parameter and returns an integer value. The extended procedure calls a regular stored procedure of a database passing the string parameter as an input. The int value is an OUT parameter to this procedure. Can I some one suggest where do I get started with respect to this in VS 2005. Use of side-effecting code from UDF is not recommended. It takes lot of work to get it right (dealing with bound connections, concurrency issues, deadlocks, scalability of xps, virtual memory issues depending on how the xp is written etc). Lastly, use of su ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to use world transformation in GDI+?

  Hello, I'd like to use world transformation to change size of my graphics but I want to keep pen, brushes,text size etc. The scaling matrix also scales the pen properties, text height and width. I was hoping I can an least transform the pen object using inverted matrix but it does not have any affect to pen style. Pen style is always scaled, please see my example below. I'd like to have a sequence of graphical elements and scale them, rotate them but do not change pen, brush or text size properties. Is there some simple way how to do it Gdiplus::Rect rect(10, 10, 100, 100); Gdiplus::Pen pen(Gdiplus::Color(255, 255, 0, 0), 10); pen.S ...Show All

• SQL Server dbo - Database ownership

  I have created tables within SQL Server database. My tables I have created do not have the dbo ownership( )...how does one transfer a table to dbo advTHANKSance It actually depends on which version of SQL Server you are using. With the use of SQL Server 2000 you can use the sp_changeobjectowner procedure. In SQL Server 2005, you may have a look on " ALTER SCHEMA schema_name TRANSFER object_name " as well as in the BOL under the sp_changeobjectowner in the BOL 2005, there is some information about the changes of the features which are in common related on the introduction of schemas in SQL Server 2005.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Error after deployment

  I have created a Windows app in VB 2005 Express and it runs OK on my development machine, it does give one error which I assume is to do with a demo version of a componenet which has a nag screen.  When the nag screen goes away, so does the error message. I have published the app and installed it on another machine.  Whenever I try to run it, I get a 'has encountersed a problem and needs to close' error.  My question is: is this error the same one I see (that goes away) on my dev machine or something more fundamental to do with the deployment I would prefer to not install VB Express on the other machine and compile the projec ...Show All
