• Sharezxx Updating GUIDs for use with DW

  Afternoon, I’ve been having trouble importing objects into the DW from the CS databases: I’ve found a post on Alan Faulkner’s blog: ( http://blogs.msdn.com/akfaulkner/archive/2006/08/24/719638.aspx ) and the CS 2002 documentation: (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms944310.aspx) which mentions that all GUIDs need to have brackets to work with the DTS DW Importer. Our existing system does not use this format. I can easily migrate the existing profiles to the new format but I am worried that changing the transaction GUIDs will cause problems with data held in the various binary data columns it uses. Has anyone any experience of performing this change and do they know if there are any issues with just updating the GU ...Show All

• Peter paterson http://runonce.msn.com/runonce2.aspx ---> Error on page ---> Done

  Anybody can help me! What I have to do, for save my settings right now If you open the registry editor by going to the start menu and then choosing run, then type in regedit, then you may be able to fix the problem as I did. Fist, locate the key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main] . Second, on the right side of the screen locate the subkey [RunOnceHasShown] . Third, click on the subkey mentioned in step 2 and change the value from 0 to 1 . Fourth, close regedit and restart IE. IN ADDITION to what the last post recommends, you should also create the following DWORD in HKCU>Software>Microsoft>Internet Explorer>Main: RunOnceComplete Set it to 1 This FIXED it for me!

• Louie Menard My creation - Obstacle detector using webcam and laser pointer

  Hello everyone! I created an obstacle detector a few days ago which uses a webcam and a laser pointer to approximately determine how far an obstacle (for example, a wall) is from the camera. Check it out on my blog . If you can't see it on my blog, try http://ashishrd.blogspot.com/2006/11/obstacle-detector-using-webcam-and.html . Hope you find it interesting. :) Ashish Thanks!

• RyanB88 Internet Component Download Broken under IE7?

  Hi All, I have a web application that uses Internet Component Download to install a client-side component. The distribution unit for this component contains an OSD file that declares a dependency on another distribution unit. Both the main and dependency distribution units (and the components they contain) download and install properly under IE6, but fail under IE7. By inspecting the code download error log file for the component, I can see that the reason for the failure is 'ClassFactory cannot supply requested class' (0x80040111), and appears to happen when attempting to download and install the dependency distribution unit... but as far as I can determine the dependency distribution unit is never actually even downloaded. If I remove ...Show All

• mfdiqwer Tuns of bugs in IE7, how to report?

  While attempting, and I do mean only attempting, to develop my application I keep getting "this old feature is now broken in IE7" Well here is a small list of what I can remember off the top of my head.. ----------------- $(id).onclick = 'alert(1);' <-- wont work until you forcefully update the DOM $(id).setAttribute('onclick', 'alert(1)'); <-- wont work until you forcefully update the DOM To update the DOM forcefully... $(id).parentNode.innerHTML += ''; After that innerHTML call, the onclick event assigned via properties will work. ----------------- Another problem, which I, ironically got while trying to post this message is a very big problem that is present when using google maps (or says so by g ...Show All

• kageg IE7 Toolbar Icons

  Is it possible to extract the IE7 toolbar icons for use in applications with web browser control or are these protected or inaccessible I've looked for them and can't find them. Anyone I've gone through a bunch of DLLs with no luck. the question would be rather: it is legal to use them in my own apps Indeed, they are in ieframe. Thanks. - I'm just making a slightly modified version of IE in VS2005 with the webbrowser control, and it's just for personal use, I don't plan to even distribute it. I am curious about whether it's legal though. MS makes a lot of their icons available for use but I haven't seen the IE toolbar icons anywhere so I don't know ab ...Show All

• matti81 Internet Exploerer event model

  Hi, I am looking for some information about how to catch events of Internet Explorer, for example I want to perform some action when new URL was entered. Best regards Roman. The only events exposed by Internet Explorer are exposed in the DWebBrowserEvents2 interface. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms850276.aspx If you are hoping to be notified on a character by character basis (such as when the user is typing, so as to control the autocomplete logic) you won't find any such event. However, IE starts a new navigation when the URL is entered , which triggers BeforeNavigate2 . You can respond to this event by performing some action with the URL (or Headers, PostData, Flags, and so on) or ca ...Show All

• Kohl.Mike How to search inside of PDFs?

  How can you search the text of PDF files using Windows Desktop Search 3 Beta 2. I also have Windows XP Professional, Adobe 7 and Office 2003. Are there any PDF ifilters that work with Windows Desktop Search 3 yet Where do you find the IFilters I looked at the WDS page and could not find any links for them. Hello nosajeel, In order to index the content of .pdf files you need to install a .pdf IFilter (Adobe offers one for download on their site). Unfortunately, there currently isn't a .pdf IFilter that works with WDS 3.0. It is expected that one should be available shortly. If you have a strong need to index .pdf files you ca ...Show All

• FJohnston I can't believe most Windows users don't know how to use toolbars, OMG.

  This is most irritating. Almost all of Windows users in my company don't know how toolbar works. They don't know they can enable toolbar, take out toolbar, customize toolbar, and not even the simplest of all, move toolbar around. Toolbar is so simple, standard, and flexible. And yet, they don't know how to use it. And now, I think that's the main reason why IE7 doesn't support moveable toolbar, and that pisses me off even more. Argh. I understand your frustration, but if you want to be a good developer you have to realize that people have jobs to do and don't have time for such frivolities. "Users: can't live with them, can't live without them" I remember when toolbars first started ...Show All

• Mike Chapman Uninstalling Windows Desktop Search

  When I go to uninstall windows desktop search it pops up a message saying that it found these programs, then lists the programs, and at the bottom says "uninstalling windows desktop search might cause these program to not work properly". How can I uninstall WDS and have it not effect my other programs, and what did WDS do to these programs on my computer so that I have to have WDS installed before they will work properly Why is WDS tampering with my other installed programs This is very disturbing. Arvind is correct and this is an issue with the installer. It just list every program installed after WDS just incase they depend on a component from WDS. Thanks for your help.
