Software Development for Windows Vista Custom Root Activity Designer Is Ignored
Hello Everyone, I'm using xaml activation to have a xaml only workflow with no compilation. I've defined a base type of workflow (SequentialWorkflowActivity) that my xaml defined workflow derives from. This works with no problems - the problem is that my base type of workflow has a designer defined and that designer is ignored. One of the main reasons I want to define my own base type of workflow is to change how the workflow looks in the desiger... Here is my base workflow definition... [ Designer ( typeof ( BaseWorkflowDesigner ))] public sealed partial class BaseWorkflow : SequentialWorkflowActivity { public BaseWorkflow() { InitializeComponent(); } } He ...Show All
SQL Server SQL queries time out during backup
Hello, I am new to the forum and hopefully someone can help me with the problem I have. Lately, I noticed that my sql statements are timing out during the time SQL server is running backup job. The errors I am seeing in the log are: Process 59:0 (724) UMS Context 0x06403BC0 appears to be non-yielding on Scheduler 1.

Visual C# Shared Add-In project
Does a shared add-in dll ( hosted by Excel ) operate in Office XP (2002) I developed an add-in for Excel in VS2005 as shared add-in project. When it was ready i created the setup for this than distributed to our customer. The customer has Office XP (2002) and after installating the add-in, it had no effect. I have Office 2003 so when I tested the application was operating in order. The setup project contains the following: - dotnetfx.exe ( .NET 2.0 installation ) - office2003-kb907417sfxcab-ENU.exe (Kb908002) - setup.exe and ...msi By the way I read that the Extensibility.dll, Office.dll and stdole.dll is required by the shared add-in. I put these files also to the setup project but no effect. Any idea Thank You! Gabor Hargitai p.s. : ht ...Show All

Windows Forms app.application Publish file
Hi, I know this has already been posted, but I need to get it clear in a simple way. The 'app'.application file is created when you publish an application to a web/ftp server, along with other files. The publish.htm page shows a button linking to the 'app'.application file and I can correctly install it, but a friend of mine (and maybe many more people too) get the 'app'.application file contents displayed in his browser. He has the .NET Framework 2.0 installed (installed automatically with VB 2005 Express), and I would like a simple solution to resolve this issue, without reinstalling .NET 2.0 (unless you are sure it resolves it). I also heard that it has to do with MIME types , but I'm not too familiar with this term to unders ...Show All
SQL Server Reporting Services ReportServer DB reporting - 3rd party tool ?
HI There We are required to gather certain information regarding reporting services. Which reports were requested, by whom , how long did they run for, what parameters were passed etc etc. I see that the system tables do provide some of this information, is there a 3rd party tool or something we can use to gather all this type of information for us This is for reporting services 2000 and 2005. Thanx Hi, I don't know of any 3rd party tools but Microsoft has a DTS/SSIS package that extracts all the information from the logs and displays them in reports using Reporting Services. Just take a look at the following link: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155836.aspx Greetz ...Show All

.NET Development TransactionScope ignores timeout option
Briefly: I am running a long running transaction using a TransactionScope. I set the TransactionOptions timeout to a large figure of 59 minutes and 59 seconds (I seem to remember that there is a hard limit of 1 hour for DTC transactions.. found out the hard way!) Bu no matter how long it runs, it always seems to timeout after just over 10 minutes. All the processes run but as soon as it tries to dispose of the transaction I get a transaction timed out exception. I am using the Microsoft provider to Oracle talking to my 9i database and debug shows me it is running under a distributed transaction as expected. I am wondering if this might be some sort of Oracle limit/ 'feature' Has anyone had a similar experience code ex ...Show All

SQL Server Using an Excel Query to access SQL Server
I set up an Excel spreadsheet for several users that queries a SQL Server. I provided the spreadsheet to the users and set it to refresh when ever it is open. The query is working fine. The problem is the users are prompted with a SQL Server login screen every time they open the file. The login screen shows the server name, the username and the password. All they have to do is press 'OK' and the screen goes away. Why are they being prompted with this screen What can I do to eliminate the users from even seeing this window I also receive this window whenever I open the file and I created it on the workstation where i'm opening it. Thank you for any input or suggestions. When you create your datasource in ...Show All
Visual Studio Team System Unable to Debug Unit Test
Hello, I am relatively new to writing unit tests with VSTS and I have been unable to figure out how to get a test to run in Debug mode. I've set several breakpoints in the test and run it in debug mode, but none of the breakpoints gets hit - the test runs without stopping at a breakpoint. Is there a secret to getting this to work that I'm missing Thanks, Chuck Hello It is due to how unit test work. Remember a unit test is just a library that is loaded and run in mstest.exe.

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DirectX in VB2.0
I have a question, in some tutorial on the Internet, i saw a page, where you can have Direct3D running in your VB.NET application. Can some one explain me how it is done I downloaded the latest SDK, but is gives me " the &&& is ambigious in container Microsoft.Direct3D ". Start with the sample browser from the SDK and find one of the managed samples in VB (there are only a couple) and start with those. Then http://www.thezbuffer.com/categories/tutorials.aspx has all the MDX tutorials listed - some (few!) of them are in VB. David Weller's book ( http://www.thezbuffer.com/categories/books.aspx ) has a VB version too. While its perfectly possibly to use VB.Net there is little examples out there so unless you ...Show All
Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) DLINQ question
I just finished watching the "The LINQ Framework What's New in the May CTP" presented by Luca Bolognese. The video discusses DLINQ. question #1 I am a student and just starting to learn stored procedure of SQL. Correct me if i am wrong but my interpratation to the demo is that this DLINQ prevents you from creating sql stored procedure and your database query will mix up on your c# code or the business logic of the program. is that manner ideal would it be better if the sql code or the dlinq code is in a separated file and not mixed up with the business logic code quetion #2 would this DLINQ work with other database like MySQL, Oracle, etc this is my first time i have seen a video of LINQ. please correct me if i am wrong with my interpre ...Show All
