• SharePoint Products and Technologies how to implement translation solution for sharepoint site content

  Environement: moss 2007, sharepoint 2007 Is it possible to do something like localization, globalization for a sharepoint site contents so that the users display the site content in the language they wish. Contents: columns names, columns contents, list names, every thing or most of the things in another language. Thank you. actually i don t have a pb with the user translating the whole sentence himself and putting it in a file or in a database. I don t have to implement a dictionnary like a real dictionnary that we find at the book store:) I only need to develop a solution to display different contents according to the chosen language of the user. The content itself will be available in full texts ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems installing SharePoint 2007...

  Hi all, I just got the SharePoint 2007 Beta, but have been having problems installing it on a Virtual Server (Windows 2003 server)! In order for me to install SharePoint 2007, I have to first install Windows Workflow Framework, however... When I try and install the Windows Workflow Framework beta 2.2, I get an error saying data1.cab is corrupt! even redownloading the setup doesn't work.

• SQL Server Connecting to SSIS in Management Studio.

  Hi: I have 4 named instances of SQL 2005 running on one of our sales server (dont ask me why I have 4 instances.Its a beefy box btw). All the instances have SSIS Packages (around 6-7 in each instance) saved to the SQL server and not to the file system. The issue is every time i need to look at the packages or export the packages from SSMS I have to edit the MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml and type in the named instance name within the <ServerName></ServerName> tag . I then have to restart my SSIS. I dont see an easier approach to this method. This is causing me a lot of unnecessary time waste. is there anyway this can be automated where in i can pass the instance name dynamically to the ini file or even more best, can I have all the in ...Show All

How else can we use the standard windows search companion on machines with WDS 3.01 installed Carl. ...Show All

• SQL Server How do I get bold and normal formatted text in a single field?

  In SSRS I am trying to get a textbox value to hold text with a mixture of formatting, along the lines of "name (country)" where the "name" part is bold and the "(country)" is normally formated. Can anyone help Thanks in advance.   kenny125 wrote: Is it possible for you to just use 2 cells I don't think so.

• SQL Server SQL 2005 Server DDL Trigger Errors

  Greetings! I've been working on a SQL 2005 project, and have really been excited about the new DDL triggers. I managed to implement some database-level DDL triggers successfully. However, I keep getting an error when I try to create a server-level DDL trigger. For several of the event groups, I keep getting the following error: Msg 1082, Level 15, State 1, Procedure tr_Server_Audit_Security, Line 44 "DROP_SERVER_ROLE_MEMBER" does not support synchronous trigger registration. I can't figure this one out for the life of me. Here's a sample of the trigger I'm trying to create (BTW, this code works for database triggers, with some slight mods of course): create trigger tr_Server_Audit_Security on all server  for drop_server_role ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Word Integration Starter Kit

  Hello: I heard about this Starter Kit. Is it available Where to get it Thanks, Yuhang I can personally attest to the fact that integration of any sort with Word is greatly improved in Word 12. The custom xml and content controls allow for integration between systems and Word unlike anytime before. Depending on your needs- I definately encourage you to look at the CTP for VSTO for Office 2007 and Office 2007 Beta 2. I know that once I started using Word 12. I simply won't look at trying any significant integration from other systems without seeing if it is within the timeframe to simply do it under Word 12. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. dem Bones

  Can someone tell me what Model.Bones are or point me at some documentation Specifically, I'm doing the "How to: Render a Model" tutorial on a model of a cube that I made. There are some lines in the code: Matrix[] transforms = new Matrix[m.Bones.Count]; m.CopyAbsoluteBoneTransformsTo(transforms); ... effect.World = MyWorldRotation * mesh.ParentBone.Transform * Matrix.CreateTranslation(Position); I've commented out the Bone-related code and my model still renders fine, so I was wondering what it's for. Thanks. Bones store the hierachy of how the ModelMesh objects were created. In most 3D modelling packages, meshes can be built hierachically, so you could have fo ...Show All

  Has anyone released any samples/tutorials/simple games that are 3D for XNA I am really not interested at all in doing anything 2D. I have made some progress making a game with MDX, though I haven't completed it yet. However, I am still having a mental hurdle with how to structure things in XNA. Not having the fixed pipeline isn't helping much either. No there are no visual designers or automatic visualizers with GSE. (though mitch did a demo showing that you can make a game component to do that http://blogs.msdn.com/xna/archive/2006/08/31/734204.aspx ) I suspect once the content pipeline is availalbe (nobody knows when....) then we will se people writing components like this. ...Show All
