• SQL Server whilst stuck in a land of 6.5 compatibility

  is there an alternative to a user-defined function, short of an extended stored procedure Your question is a little too short and succint! It depends what you're trying to do - there may well be an alternative, but given that there are three different kinds of UDFs and a bunch of different ways that they can be used I'm not about to start going into all of them. Post your problem and we can try and help you. ...Show All

• Visual C++ MoveWindow for dialog has no effect when invoked by message handler

  Problem: MoveWindow function for a dialog appears to not work when called from a message handler. Details: My dialog-based application needs to work in both landscape and portrait screen modes. Not only that, but it needs to detect when the user has chosen to rotate his/her display from portrait to landscape or vice versa, and adjust itself accordingly. When in portrait mode, the dialog is 1024h x 768w. When in landscape mode, it is 768h x 1024w I added a message handler ON_WM_SHOWWINDOW, which is called when the application is first displayed. I also added a message handler WM_DISPLAYCHANGE which is called when the system detects an aspect ratio change. Both of these message handlers call a member function that does the follow ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Just to clarify TeamSystem license - TFS

  I have been reading a lot of different information about TFS x TeamSystem license model, concerning Cals etc One thing I am almost sure is when we sign for MSDN Premium TeamSystem (whether Suite, Dev, Tester or Arch), we do have rights for 5 CALs to access TFS. Another issue has to do with using this package after expiration. I have posted previously about the possibility of signing for MSDN Premium TeamSystetm Suite, and when renewing, choosing a lower package (tester for instance). In this case, I would not receive any other new features on the other versions (in this case Dev and Arch), but I would be fully license covered to continue using the whole package I had up to that moment. Could anyone from Microsoft confirm this 2 in ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development How to control frame buffer mechanism

  Hi, all: In DShow, there are some allocators in input pins to control the buffer management, frame queue, and memory re-use. But in MF, I don't know how to control the details about frame re-use. For example, a MFT can create and output DXVA buffers by itself. But, the MFT does not know when the buffer can be reused. That makes me very confuse. Always to re-create DXVA buffers is not efficiency. Is there any more detail information about that Else, I don't know how to playback video smoothly. Thanks Ah... It seems that we hadn't yet published that interface as of Beta2, which would explain why you don't see it yet. But anyways, when we ship, IMFVideoSampleAllocator will be in mfidl.idl(mfidl.h), and it's the interface throu ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums [OTP] VBA Using combobox in Excel

  H i there,   I'm working on an engineering spreadsheet (Excel) and need some help in manipulating comboboxes / dropdown list.   Say i have 2 list, where list A has the list of countries and list B has the list of cities for the country chose. If all the data source (i.e. countries and cities) are to be extracted from the Excel spreadsheet, is it possible to make list B dependant on list A (that is to say when user selects a country in list A, list B will automatically gives the respective cities) WITHOUT creating a userform If so, please advise how.   Hope you can understand what i'm trying to ask here.

• .NET Development SSL Authentication problems

  Hello, I want to make a valid SSL connection with a server based on this code but I get an error -> Certificate error: RemoteCertificateChainErrors. Exception: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure. The admins from the server asked me if I use the right certificate to authenticate <-- I don't understand that part. What to do now Thx in advance. Seems like ill communication The error message means the server's certificate was rejected. Your admin was asking whether you're sending a client certificate. Assuming you didn't change the sample's overall program structure, which implies that the part of the program which authenticates as client didn't fail, client certificates seem to be either n ...Show All

• SQL Server Statement parsing and conditionals

  I'm currently dealing with a block of dynamic T-SQL that basically says 'if exists(select name from ' + @databaseName + 'sysobjects where name = ''tablename') begin insert into ' + @databaseName ' + tablename blah blah blah end' When @databaseName is on the current server and the table does not exist, the procedure correctly skips over this section and proceeds to the next. The @databaseName is a linked server name, the procedure fails, complaining that the table doesn't exist or the user doesn't have rights to it. Is this a misconfiguration of the linked server or simply an order of operations issue that can't be avoided You still need the database in there too. So you need to pass ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions For loops

  Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to 'spawn' for loops on the fly. For example, I have three nested for loops such as: for (int x = 0; x < 2; x++) for (int y = 0; y < 2; y++) for (int z = 0; z < 2; z++) Console.WriteLine(x.ToString() + y.ToString() + z.ToString()); which displays the binary numbers 000 to 111, what I want to be able to do is pass an arguement (like the value 3) to a function which creates 3 nested for loops and behaves as the above for loops. The idea being that this function can be reused being given a different value resulting in that many nested for loops being executed. I'm new to C# so any ideas would be welcome. Cheers. How about: MyMethod( ...Show All
