• SQL Server Change the type of an expression container

  Hi, I use expressions to build the SQL query that is executed by the data flow. Today, I ran into an issue.

Is there a way to change the expression datatype to nvarchar(max) instead of the default nvarchar(4000) Thanks, Philippe So i am back in the business of using mul ...Show All

• Visual C++ linking to both msvcr80.dll and msvcr80d.dll

  I have a managed c++ project, that produces an assembly that's linked to both msvcr80.dll and msvcr80d.dll (in release mode). According to the intermediate manifest below, the release version of the runtime should be used. Dependency walker show that it finds msvcr80.dll in %windir%\WinSxs\something (as expected). It also shows a missing msvcr80d.dll, which is the problem. Any hints on how to further investigate what causes this, or solutions a ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Loaded - Initialized - SourceInitialized

  I'm hoping someone can help out here ... I'm trying to figure out exactly what these events "mean". Certainly, most sample code uses the Loaded event to mean "this object and its descendants are completely ready to go". However, I'm fairly certain I saw something from a WPF team member stating that -- at least for a Window -- the SourceInitialized event is a "safer" option. (This event is only available for Wi ...Show All
