• SQL Server Using VB.Net for Applications and the VBA Editor from Custom Components?

  Hi, Is it possible to make use of VB.Net for Applications and the VBA editor from your own Custom Transform Components (like the script component does) I would like to create a component that generates boiler-plate VBA code and that then allows developers to add their own specialised code in certain methods using the editor (just like the script component) If so, is there any documentation anywhere on how to go about this Thanks in advance, Lawrie I believe you'll have to sign up for the Visual Studio Industry Partners (VSIP) program and downlaod the VSIP SDK.

• SQL Server Incremental Load in SSIS

  We are in the process of converting our existing incremental loads from DTS to SSIS. Currently we get all the data for the past month into temp tables in the warehouse, compare with key fields add the new rows and update changed rows. All this is done using Execute SQL task.

We have around 20 tables that needs to be loaded 4 have large amount of data between 20 and 40 million rows out of which we will be brining over around 100 thousand during each incremental run.

• SQL Server automate passing

  hi! i already have a program that when you click a button it will get the new transactions in the database then pass it to another database now i need to automate the passing... once there is a new entry in the database it should automatically pass it to the other database. how could i do this ! thanks! I believe there is a way to do such mirroring if the databases are both SQL Server databases and if that is the case you should post the same question to the appropriate SQL form... Otherwise one could write a service application, an application with no GUI which runs as a windows service i.e not as a user, but the system, to check for the transfer condition, then do the read from the first database ...Show All

• Windows Forms Refreshing a Listbox

  I have a listbox that's bound to a relationship between a table and a dataview. How do I 'refresh' the listbox when a new record is inserted into the tables 'viewed' by the view If the whole application is shut down and restarted, the listbox shows the new data, so I know the database is right. The data is being filled into the program when you start it, you can either create a button that would allow you refresh, or uses a timer that will open your connection, fill the table adapter, then update the form. I am still new to databases, so I hope this helps. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista WF vs. BPEL and Java-based Engine such as ActiveBPEL

  How can I convince a Java-possessed manager that WF is the way to go. I have gathered the following arguments: - WF offers more expressive power that allows the modeling of variety of process types, i.e., sequential, state machine and rules based business processes. WS-BPEL is very much a subset of what can be represented using WF. - WF is an e xtensible framework with many extensibility points such as the ability to specify custom activities and deploy custom runtime services to extend the WF runtime engine. -  Lightweight framework   that can be hosted in variety of environments ranging from embedding it into a desktop application to orchestrated processes deployed in a Web farm. Whereas Java-based orchestration ...Show All
