• Software Development for Windows Vista Calling CreateProcessAsUser() from service

  According to some MS documents (e.g. http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/vista/services.mspx), it should be possible to use CreateProcessAsUser() API in a Vista service to create a process in user session. I am trying to achive this, but the function returns error code 1307 (ERROR_INVALID_OWNER) = "This security ID may not be assigned as the owner of this object." Does it work for somebody Many thanks in advance. The call was in windbg, I used DebugBreak() to get into step by step. (Somehow I couldn't use OutputDebugStringA() to display using DbgView.exe). When I use Remote Desktop to debug, the session id is 3, however WTSQueryUserToken() failed with the same error 1008. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team System Multiple Checkout Problem

  I was wondering if there is a way to totally disable multiple checkout for Team System. I have set the Team System Source Control Settings to disable multiple checkout and I have changed the Team Foundation Server Settings Source Control File Types to disabled for file merging. However there are still instances when multiple users can check out .cs files or the solution when another user has the same file checked out. Sometimes the changes are lost when one user tries to check in the file because the merge fails. Removing the users from the admin groups did not work. I'll try to get the users to provide screenshots and more information to help Microsoft diagnose the problem. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Volume textures!

  There is Texture3d, but the content pipeline doesn't support volume textures. That's great! Now the main thing I wanted to do with XNA can't be done because volume textures aren't supported. More and more it feels as if this product should've had one more round in a beta cycle. That or they have to get XNA 1.1 out the door soon! Wonderful API, but it needs some polish. Actually my DDS file is created by a c++ plugin I coded for 3dsmax that does some processing and then writes a dds-file. Anyways. Apparantly the following worked and should be alright since I don't target the xbox 360 (don't own one): Texture3D vol = Texture3D .FromFile( graphics.GraphicsDevice, @"data\volumetexture.dds" ); ...Show All

• SQL Server Check if a windows/nt user account exists

  I have some script which creates/grant priveleges to windows/nt users to DB but i frequently get the message below: Windows NT user or group '<user or group>' not found. Check the name again. I understand that this is because the said user/group is indeed not present in the environment I'm running the script (ie. testing and production environment). But is it possible to have some sort of checking whether the user/group exists in the environment so that I could determine whether or not to call some lines of code Not sure if this is possible so i had to ask. c",) SELECT * FROM sysusers will show the users from the current database.
