Visual Basic Records Question
Is there a specific way I need to treat tables for record sharing Say if, I was making a PO table and I was depending on the last entry to help populate my next number, is there a chance that I would end up with the same number twice, from 2 different people being on 2 different machines I know access would'nt(very, very, very slight change - a millisecond) Davids Learning Davids Learning wrote: and I was depending on the last entry to help populate my next number, And this is when primariy keys come into play...It is a best practice that every table utilize a primary key.

SQL Server Create HTTP request in Stored Procedure
Hi, I want to know if it is possible to create and execute a http request in SQL Server. I want to run the request in the database as alot of the data in the url would be retrieved from the database. I want to create a stored procedure that runs the request. The stored procedure must be called from a trigger on a table. The reason I want to go this way is because it would be alot faster that to get the data from the database and then execute the http request in the application. Another reason that I want it done on the database side is because the internet connection of my client is not as fast as the one I am using for development so I don't want the pages to load to many times and get the data between the server and the client c ...Show All

Visual Studio Tools for Office Office 2007 Add-in permission problem
Hi, I've written an Outlook 2007 Add-in with VS2005. When I used VS to deploy the add-in, everything was fine. Now I tried to deploy the add-in on a machine where no visual studio is installed. I're read this and I placed the dll file to a folder and got through the granting wizard of .Net 2.0 configuration. But when I tried to add my VSTO add-in via COM add-in browser, I got this message: <myadd-in.dll> is not a valid Outlook add-in. What else should I do Hi, Thanks for the hints, I looked for the original setup project and installed my add-in. However, it was inactivated by Outlook, and I can't find a way to make it active.

Visual Basic Why is it innapropriate to use overloads in module?
I am using a module in a larger project as a way to provide cross-class access to some global objects. I want only to allow access to the variables through properties (so I can do some error checking). It would be handy to overload some of my properties but I get a warning (not an error) suggesting that the use of overloads is not allowed in modules. Why I recognize that properties and methods in a module are treated as static, but I don't understand why that should prevent me from overloading. Any thoughts My property declaration is as follows; Overloads ReadOnly Property getOPCvalue( ByVal tagname As String) as Object ... Code here End Property I'm not sure I understand the reasoning fo ...Show All
Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Custom Vertex Format
I have been playing around with creating my own custom vertex formats in XNA. To test whether it works I am creating a vertex format that is the same as VertexPositionColor. I created a struct with a Position, Color and SizeInBytes property. Creating the vertex element array is also no problem. Until here my vertex format and that of VertexPositionColoris exactly the samen. The only thing that is different is what both return in the GetHashCode method. I believe this value is used to actually use it (in combination with the vertex element array to index this value). In the GetHashCode method I return: this.Position.GetHashCode() | this.Color.PackedValue.GetHashCode(); I got this from this article . Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong ...Show All
Visual Basic Help with string manipulation in combobox
Hello, I have a combobox in which I populated as follows: John Smith - Count 24 How can I change that string in my combobox to read John Smith - Count 23 after I save a record ... and then John Smith - Count 22 and so on... I'm not sure if I could just grab the number value, and subtract it by 1 and then take the result and concatinate it back to the string... Thanks in advance. Hi Rashar, a possible solution is to create a integer variable and set that variables value as 23 dim countvariable as integer = 24 then set the combobox string as "John Smith - Count " plus the variable's value yourcombobox.text = "John Smith - Count " + countvariable.tostring put som ...Show All
