• SQL Server OWC-XML Structure migration issues SQL2005

  Hi, I recently migrated a customer's BI solution from SQL2000 to SQL2005. He used to access the Analysis Services cubes via pivottable from OWC 9 or 10. Concerning Cubes, Measures and dimensions he now has the exactly same structure on SSAS as before on SQL2000. Now I have about thousands of reports in OWC 9/10 XML format which i have to migrate to OWC11 to work with SQL2005. I started replacing the version number, Dataprovider and the new Servername. Now connection can be established but I only see the reports measures. None of the reports dimensions (+ structure + filtering) can be seen in the pivottable report. Is there any documentation on what has changed in the xml format or any smart way to easy migrate owc9/10 xml-repor ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums About MSN personal message and WMP caption...

  Hi, everyone !! We know Live Messenger's personal message can change when listen the song with Windows Mediaplayer. And I want to write some code let personal message can show the lyrics with the song synchronous, if the song has it. So, can you show me some example or give me suggestion about the Live Messenger and Windows Mediaplayer communication. Thank you very much !! But even when you succeed in getting the messages in sync with the song, you'll probably run into trouble with the msnp network itself. It simply doesn't allow you to change your personal message that often. It's a safety measure by MSN to keep people from flooding the network. Hope this helps, coolio ...Show All

  Hi, Is there a sample on configuring the CS Order adapter programatically in the BizTalk so it can be used configuring the dynamic send port I need to assign send adapter URI and END POINT MESSAGE TYPE = "Order Queries" properties during run time. Thanks, Why not configure an endpoint for each site and use the "Sitename" endpoint configuration property This property is also written and read from the message context, so this is routable in an Orchestration. You can have the orchestration route based on the Sitename context value to the appropriate endpoint. Further, you can use the Send Port endpoint message type to be "From Context" and you can use the ...Show All

• SQL Server Paging issue on conditionally set second table visibility

  Hi. I am having a problem with a 2005 report that has two tables and is designed thru visual studio. The second table is set to page break before printing and also to repeater headers on new pages. It works fine just like that. However, if I place a condition on the visibilty of the table based on an input report parameter it does not page break before rendering the table. In fact it does not page break at all leaving me with an extremely long last page. The visiblity parameter does properly toggle. This is all occurring when rendering the report to the screen using the windows reportviewer. When I export to PDF it looks fine. Any help would be great. No, its not fixed, but I figured out a solution ...Show All
