• .NET Development Accessing the registry from a Web Service

  I'm fairly new to this Web Service game so please feel free to suggest something different if it looks like i'm completely off track! I'm trying to write an application that runs on a Pocket PC that is accessing data stored in a SQL server database on a seperate server (not on the pocket pc). This will be deployed to lots of customers sites so I can't hard-code the location of the database in the program. I wrote a seperate little app to enter and store the connection string details in the registry so that data can be retrieved by the Web Service from the appropriate database and sent to the Pocket PC.

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 incorrectly claims I don't meet minimum service pack level requirements?

  This doesn't make any sense. I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 on SBS 2003 with Service Pack 1. According to Windows Update, there is nothing left for me to install. However, I am getting this error (while installing SQL Server Express and the Developer Edition): "Your operating system does not meet Service Pack level requirements for this SQL Server release. Install the Service Pack from the Microsoft Download Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/ LinkId=50380 , and then run SQL Server setup again."

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DirectX 10

  How will DirectX10 affect any current ATI Crossfire or NVidia SLI configurations when it's out for d/l I know that with Vista, there are drivers to update that support the new OS. If I built a system now, what can I expect what hardware not to be compatible with any API's Just to clarify, it's not DirectX10 but Direct3D10. No current graphics cards on the market today will be able to run Direct3D10. Due to the large changes in the rendering pipeline, you will need to wait for Direct3D10 graphics cards to be released. I suspect this will be a little before the release of Vista. If you were to build a system ...Show All

• SQL Server Embed HTML tags into report fields

  I have a need to render data returned from a relational DB with spacing intact. The application is a viewer for input data so the end user can determine if the input data is different than the file layout specified so the data will be parsed correctly, so spacing is critical. I changed to a fixed-pitch font to ensure that the text records align properly in VS (which they do), but when I render to HTML, the spaces collapse (of course). PDFs render correctly, but we were trying for HTML output. Is there any way to replace the native spaces with   so it will render correctly in HTML From the other posts, it seems not, but I want to dou ...Show All
