• SQL Server Queries returning Multiple instances of the same record

  I am running SQL 2005 and have created a simple database for interfacing with Visual Web Dev 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. I noticed that my applications where returning multiple instances of the same records in the queries. I went back to the SQL server and created a query, and sure enough, I'm getting each record returned 3 times. Where do I start to resolve this issue DOH! You were right. The records were duplicated. Apparently using the SET Insert Unique ON and not having the Primary Key set allowed the duplications. I've cleaned up the mess and I'll try not to shoot off any more toes. Sorry for the bother. I should have caught that ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Can't find MFC lib files for 32-bit apps in new PSDK.

  I recently downloaded and installed the Windows Server SP1 Platform SDK. I notice that there are MFC include files and lib files in the installation. However, I can't find any lib files for 32-bit applications. As I understand it the library files in the .\Lib\AMD64\atlmfc\ and .\Lib\IA64\mfc\ directories are for development of 64-bit applications. So which libraries should I use when building a 32-bit MFC application Thanks in advance, Roger   Martin Richter wrote: The 32bit MFC was never part of the Platform SDK, only the 64bit version is/was.

• Visual Studio Can VSS 2005 and VSS 6 co-exist?

  Can Visual SourceSafe 2005 and 6.0 co-exist on the same machine If not the databases, can the clients Thanks, Klas Yes, it is possible to have VSS 6.0 and VSS 2005 installed on the same machine. However, if you do... the VSS that you installed last is the one that will be used since the latest install will register the DLLs from the latest installed version. If you would like to switch the other version of VSS, you would have to re-register those DLLs (ie. using regsvr32). Scenario example: 1. Install VSS 6.0 2. Install VSS 2005, now VSS 2005 will be used. If you want to switch to using VSS 6.0 then proce ...Show All

• Visual Studio LogonInfo, linked parameters, different databases, subreports, Oh My

  I'm having a bear of a time getting reports with subreports to function correctly. I have followed all of the directions for logonInfo updates. The original report running under v9 only has to have the first four parameters filled, from there 9 other linked parameters are supposed to be filled. I started with code that we have in production (v9). This code ran fine when running against the server that the report was designed against. But when compiled in CR .net 2005 the linked parameter values kept prompting. Then I tried to hack my way through that problem and set all of the parameters (13) instead of just the 4 we normally send. Stil ...Show All

So is it useful to learn vc++6.0 now  or should i shift to Visual Studio 2005 from VS 6.0 . i would like to know the difference between these two. plz help me.
