• Xcel Odbc and OleDb to VFP with tables of 64 or more fields and records of 1000 or more problem

  I am trying to move data from SQL into VFP tables. On this particulare table i have 80 columns and approx 14000 records. I have the Data in a DataSet and create an insert command. I found the odbc has a problem with more that 64 columns and more that 1000 records as shown below. I thought I would try OleDb and it has the same problem. Any idea of a workaround This is ridiculous. Gary http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx scid=kb;en-us;275577 Consider linking the FoxPro table to the SQL Server and then fire a single INSERT statement to move the rows. That would be faster and more robust. Have you considered breaking up your single table into multiple related tables ...Show All

• Assaf Stone Hash Table

  I am just wondering about the uses of HashTable. when should i use a hashTable to store data Can i save the entire hash table into a file and can i read that file later using C# please let me know. Thanks cgraus wrote: A dictionary is a hash table, not sure why there are two, what the difference is, but the reason you use a hash table is so you can provide something other than a number as a key to look up your values. A common example would be something like a situation where your class has Customer objects, and they each display a name in a drop down list. Assuming the names are unique, a hashtable could be used to take the selected text from the combo box, and use it to look up the Customer ob ...Show All

• yonelay C# , Sending email through exchange server?

  I've searched on this and tried several methods using System.Net.Mail but I can't get it to work. I want to send email using the Exchange server they have at work. Anyone could show me how to do this (server requires authentication) Thanks in advance since I dont have an exchange server to test with, what happens if you take out the DeliveryMethod part of the code in regards to the networkcredential, I believe (but I guess it depends on the SMTP Server on how authentication works) that the username should be the email address of the sender ( From@Fake.com ). I'll see what else I can dig up. make sure that the firewall is not blocking the request from both your client computer and the server. as ...Show All

• susantez Coding a for loop for multiple threading and automatically timing out long running threads.

  I know most programmers including me could work out a solution for this, but I was thinking that there may be features built into .net2005 which cover this functionality in a neat way. I haven't done much threading before but have a serious timescale pressure so any help you can give with this would be appreciated... I need the following pseudo code: dim th(10) as threading.thread for each obj in collection ' collection has perhaps 5000 elements ' terminate any threads that have been running longer than their timeout - say 60 seconds ' pick up the first available thread, or sleep if there are no available threads.

• pmak Regex behavior

  I have the following regular expression: <%( <one>.+)%>(<%( <two>.+)%>) I apply it to the following: “<%this is one%><%this is two%>” After running the regex, one contains “this is one%><%this is two” and two contains nothing. Without the “ ” at the end, one contains “this is one” and two contains “this is two”. If I use the “ ” at the end and run the match from right to left one contains “this is one” and two contains “this is two”. This is what I expect. I do not understand why using “ ” at the end causes the match to skip the first “%>” and go to the ending “%>”, especially if it works without the “ ” and with a right ...Show All

• Brian Tucker How to keep a thread running?

  Hi, I have the following issue and the odd part about is that I had it already working however I don't know what I changed that it doesn't anymore. I runtime compile a class, create an instance of it and init it on a different thread. In this init the class subscribes to a couple data dispatchers and should now wait for incoming data. When I first implemented this it kept running after I subscribed to the dispatchers until I aborted the thread. However, now it subscribes and after that exits the thread. Any idea how I can keep it running without putting it in a wait loop Thanks, Tom Hmm, don't know where to start... Sounds like a WorkItem doesn't actually do anything. You say you're subscribing to ev ...Show All

• abhishek_6023 .NET 3.0 breaks printing subsystem on non-english XP / VERY ugly effects

  After installing .NET 3.0 on non-english XP two things will break parts of the printing subsystem: - parts of XPS are installed in English, i.e. unidrv.dll / unidrvui.dll / unires.dll etc. are non-localized As a consequence Printing dialogs of all unidrv.dll-based printer drivers show mixed output localized/english. And the default Input Tray is set to 'Automatically Select' even on a german XP which leads to strange effects like printers suddenly asking for paper in the Manual Tray instead of using Tray 1 as usual. - unidrv.dll / unidrvui.dll / unires.dll etc. are Windows Vista DLLs and incompatible with many XP Printer Drivers As a consequence some printer drivers will print all pages of multi-page documents on one sheet, all ...Show All
