• SQL Server '..product level is insufficient...' running package; I have SP1 installed

  I read other threads with this problem and one solution was to install SP1 on the workstation. Our server is running 9.00.2047(SP1) and my workstation SSMS version is 9.0.2047.00 so I'm assuming it's SP1 and I am still getting this error. To make matters worse, I have jobs set up to run these packages ON the server, but they aren't working either because I have '...error authenticating proxy...Logon failure unknown user name or bad password'. I'm trying to use my Windows login because it has sysadmin rights; I created credentials, assigned them to a proxy under SSIS Package Execution; in the SQL Agent log I get the error '...SQLServer Error: 22046, Encryption error using CryptProtectData.'.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Cannot insert activities from the toolbox if CanModifyActivities=False

  I would like to have a workflow initialized with two activities in it and also be able to drag additional activities from the toolbox into the workflow. I have written the code shown below to achieve this goal. However, after setting CanModifyActivities to false, I cannot drag activities from the toolbox into the designer. The designer does not accept the activities anymore and does not throw an exception. How can I have a workflow initialized with 2 activities in it and still be able to add additional activities by dragging items from the toolbox (which seems not to be possible, if CanModifyActivities has been set to false) [ Designer ( typeof ( WorkflowActivityDesigner ), typeof ( IRootDesigner ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Problem with method.ExceptionHandlers

  I am unable to get the exceptionHandlers in a normal run. The only way that I can get these are to Launch the debugger before I cast my member to a method and then I MUST hover over the method and its ExceptionHandler Property. If I launch the debugger and step thru slowly I still miss the exceptionHandlers, again I must Hover over them in order to get them. Here is a snippet foreach ( Member member in type.Members) { if ( member.NodeType == NodeType .Method || member.NodeType == NodeType .

• SQL Server Table Column Comparison Transform

  Is there a transform available which allows you to specify two different tables (same primary key) and compare columns (you identify which column(s) values need to be compared in the transform) between those two tables thanks J.A.J. wrote: I want to be able to compare column values between the two different tables. These tables will have the same primary key but the column names and number of columns will be different. I will have a mapping table that lists which columns are to be compared.
