• AP Erebus Where has the Message Body Gone?

  Hi, all. According to my last thread Message Routing doesn't work , I have corrected some problems and the message could be routed to my destination service. But now comes another problem that the message body seemed lost. First let me give a short introduction about the projects. There are totally 5 projects: Client: The console UI.

• Stefan26 Still unclear on how to use Typed Datasets in BLL...

  OK, I have decided to use typed datasets in my data access layer (DAL). So, my question is, do I really need to create a business logic layer (BLL) From what I have read, you can extend the dataset classes in the DAL using partial classes and place business logic there. Doesn't this combine the DAL and BLL into one component Or is there something I'm missing Do you create the BLL and start by referencing the DAL project and inheriting the classes from the DAL and extend the classes there I don't get where one ends and the other starts. OR, if it really makes a difference. ...or do I even know what I'm talking about... Background: VB 2005, Winform app, expertise level: intermediate+, small application audience, single develo ...Show All

• Maximilian Machedon Multi-tiered enterprise application

  I am trying to get my head around multi tiered web apps in the .net world. In the java world, the tiers can be separated neatly into Web Tier (say Apache)->remotely accesses Middle Tier App server (say weblogic) which implements code which calls the data tier->Data Tier In the windows world, IIS can be the web tier but I cant find the middle tier. I read about enterprise services, but that requires inheriting from a COM interface which is something I dont want to do. Is there a pure .NET component app server out there Any tutorials on creating middle tier pure .NET components I also read about IIS hosting web services and have implemented a couple.. But I want my web app to be able to remotely call components on a s ...Show All

• ailuz Can't search within PDF files

  I've installed the Adobe Ifilter 6.0 and can now search to list posted pdf files in multiple sites by querying the pdf name. I can search content within Word files, but still cannot search content within these pdf files.

• Nitin Sharma22 Cell Formatting Task Pane

  Anyone know how to get the Cell Formatting Task Pane to appear I closed it and now have no idea how to get it back! Select a cell, then click Data/Cell Formatting to bring up the "Cell Formatting" task pane. No, there is no data or cell formatting options. If you select the cell in the Quick Tag selector in the top bar of the design view, do you see the Data/Cell Formatting option I don't have a copy of the program handy at the moment so maybe I am just deeply confused. Thanks Stephen, but I'm not sure what you mean. I don't see any Data/Cell Formatting menu item or context menu. I see a Data View menu but all of its entries are grayed out and none of them say Cell Formatting. ...Show All

• matman13 Replication for Transactional Data as a Solution

  Hi, I have seen situations where replication was used for replicating master/static data from central to various stores. I have a scenario wherein even Transactional data that is being updated at each store, updates not only the store but also the central and in turn the central pushes the updates back to other stores. One of the approaches being considered is using SQL Server Replication. I am of the opinion of doing this from the application instead at the database level. Some of the points which lead me to that are- On insert/update of every records, this replication would need to kick in to achieve a near about real-time scenario. I am not sure if SQL Server would be able to handle that. I potentially see the database crawling in no ...Show All

• Roto KPI List - Error with KPI different Site

  I created a KPI list and added a new Indicator using data in SharePoint List.  The indicator uses information from a Tasks list on a different site within the same site collection.  The indicator appears correctly in the KPI list, however, when I click on the indicators name I get the following error message: Incorrect function. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070001) If I create the exact same type of indicator with all the same values but for a tasks list on the same site as my KPI list it works fine. Anyone seen this before   Can I not pull indicators from multiple SharePoint sites Thanks, Andrew ...Show All

• rtaiss Differences between WSS and MOSS 2007 ?

  What are the main differences between WSS 3.0 and MOSS 2007 I realise that WSS 3.0 is free but there must be strong reasons why a company would pay for MOSS 2007 over the WSS version Thanks Thanks. Say you start with WSS 3.0, do you know if it is an "easy" upgrade to MOSS keeping all files, etc. intact What are the large dfferences in integration between 2003 and 2007 For example, the basics in 2003 must allow to users to at least open and edit files directly from Sharepoint without having to open the Sharepoint web portal ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I presume there are various connector licences for access outside of an intrane ...Show All

• crazydudeinsd sometimes i can break through code in vs2005 to debug a site

  I build my debug version, install it in GAC, then I reset iisreset .When i place a breakpoint I get the message: breakpoint will not currently be hit. no symbols have been loaded for this document Have u had this before. The problem is to do with where the debug symbols get created. If the assembly is in the GAC, it will be looking for the debug symbols in the same dir as the assembly, which will be c:\windows\assembly\gac\[assemblyname]\version. If you copy the debug symbols file (*.pdb) to the appropriate directory and then you should be able to debug. As long as you don't change the version number you can probably point the output dir to the gac\... dir and build to there, or just create a build event to copy the pdb... ...Show All

  Is there a way to fire off the audience compilation process through c# Specifically, if I wanted to compile just one audience but not the rest, is it possible to do this through code Thanks in advance for any help offered. Dez Actually, it seems that the audience compilation is possible through the object model. The AudienceJob class has a static method called RunAudienceJob that provides a way to start and stop incremental and full compilation. Althoug, it requires some parameters I can't find. Here is the SDK : public static int RunAudienceJob ( string [] args ) Parameters args Takes the following four arguments: ApplicationID ...Show All

• irohan_fernando Where can one find any WebServiceInputActivity Samples?

  Hi, I'm trying to add a WebServiceInputActivity to a WSS Stat Machine SharePoint Workflow project. But I cant find any samples or walkthru's or anything. What I'm trying to do is to have the WebServiceInput as the first event in a given state. If anyone knows of such a thing or has any documentation or anything please can you add to this post. Thanks Yeah, bit of a lack of documentation on this one. I followed through an MSDN webcast doing this last year - around may - but I can't remember it's name, I'm afraid. Not sure that you can really have a 'first' event in a given state. You merely have a number of events in a state which may (or may not) cause a state transition. I'd expect to have WebSe ...Show All
