• SQL Server SQL SERVER 6.5 restore

  I'm not familiar with 6.5 and generally only work with 2000 and 2005. I have an old application that worked with a 6.5 version. Apparently the server crashed and they didn't notice for several months. We are now attempting to restore from an old backup. I have both a .DAT file and a data dump. I installed a version of 6.5 and created a database with the same name and attempted to restore. I get an error message saying the backup was taken with a sort order ID of 32 and will not restore to the 6.5 version I installed. It says the new version has a sort order ID of 52. Is it possible to change the sort order ID back to 32 Yes, and you have to reinstall the SQL Server again by selecting the sort order to 32 ( ...Show All

• SQL Server Connect to Analysis Server - A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running ...

  In my SSAS SP1, I received an error msg in Aggregation design wizard "A connection cannot be made. Ensure that the server is running ..." while I was tryng to start "Performance gain reaches%" box. I verified that the local source SQL 2005 sample "AdventureWorksDW" is running without a problem. Open Service control manager and make sure you've started "SQL Server Analysis Services( MSSQLSERVER)" service. That is in case you installed default instance. If you installed named instance the service name will contain the instance name. For troubleshooting connectivity issues you can look at some tips on http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/edwardm/archive/2006/05/26/21447.aspx Edward Melomed. -- ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) OpenXML vs XPS

  I just read an article which mentioned that the OpenXML standard was adopted by the standards committee ( http://www.infoworld.com/article/06/12/07/HNopenxmlastandard_1.html ) This is an XML standard for expressing documents. Does this have anything to do with the XPS standard used by documents in WPF If so, what's the relationship If not, why does WPF not support the standard which MS has pushed into being a new standard for expressing documents Thanks for any insights. AFAIK, OpenXML competes more with Office's XML formats. XPS is a print ready format that competes more with PDF than anything else. HTH, Drew ...Show All

• SQL Server Autosize reportviewer control

  I want the reportviewer to display the report exactly over the entire screen. If I try to use "width=100%", the report viewer control expands beyond the screen area making us to scroll to view the "View Report" button. However, in the report manager, the same report gets displayed exactly occupying the screen size no matter what resolution the screen size is. How is it done Thanks. Hi, I think by setting the width we can control the size of the reportviewer control not the report data itself. By setting the width to 100%, we can arrange the width of the area which includes the parameters, the view report button, paging control, export and the print controls. Not the report area. I mean we can not confi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) App Positioning Per different types of Resolution

  Ok right now in my application it starts where i have it set right along the Taskbar,But i run at a Resolution of 1280 x 1024 and not everyone runs the same Resolution..Some people run higher Resolutions or Lower..So my Question is where can i find some information on getting the Application to appear along the Task Bar No Matter the Resolution From 800 x 768 all the way up to 2048 x 1280... The System.Windows.SystemParameters class has a static WorkArea property of type "Rect" which should give you the informatio you need (and if not there are a number of other screen-size related static properties). I was initially puzzled by your question, since I usually have my task bar at the top, and ...Show All

• .NET Development Refrerenced memory at 0x0000000c could not be "read"?

  Hello all you nice people out there in 'Sanity' land, First - a message from my sponsor: 'For the record, I'm no computer wiz. And, I also do not know all-a-da proper terminologies either.

• Visual Studio Saving and loading rendered report

  Is it possible that a rendered report can be saved with rendered data in a file/stream/db etc I want to not only save the whole rendered report into a file but also have a possibility to load the report from that file from ReportViewer control. What is the best way to implement it Thanks Brian, I'm not quite sure whether I phrased my question correctly - what I would like to do is to run the report inside the firewall, then upload the results to a server outside the firewall where another copy of reporting services could render it - do you know if that's possible cheers, niall ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro DLL Language in Portuguese

  This is my first Post :) I work with VFP since '99 and has been always in english. Dealing with english is not a problem, but for my custumers yes, especially with error messages prompted from VFP (due to program code error ou just a crash). Is there a possibility to translate a Resource DLL to portuguese just like exists in Spanish, French, etc. This avoid me have an error routine to translate some messages (one of the common messages is "The visual foxpro support library is missing or invalid"). thx, DaCosta11. As far as I know all of the existing localizations have been undertaken by dedicated volunteers from that country - Spain, France, Germany and, I think, Russia.
