• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How to use View and Projection matrix?

  Hi. I'm trying to draw a vertex buffer (using PositionColored vertex) but I can't see anything. So, reading about it on the web, I've found that I need to set two matrix: Projection and View.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Working with Headers (this is working now)

  Using VSTO in VS.net 2005.  I would like to include a picture in my MS Word 2003 header.  The picture I would like to insert at runtime will depend on an action selected by the user in a smart tag ("Insert Logo").  I would like to just include the possible pictures in the same directory with the application add-in, and refer to the paths at run time. So far I have had problems getting the header pane to close, and figuring out how to insert a picture from a file.  This is the first page header code I started with: Private Sub AddHeaderPic() Dim i as integer i=1 ' for first section For i = i to 1 Globals.ThisDocument.Section(i).Headers(Word.WDHeaderFooterIndex.wdHeaderFooterFirstPage) _  .Range.Sel ...Show All

• SQL Server Show table create date AND TIME for tables in a database?

  Is there a way to change the info displayed when working with tables in a database I'm really, really, _REALLY_ missing the timestamp component on in the "Created" column and would like to have it back if possible. Seems like it is there behind the scenes, but just isn't displayed. Did I miss a date format option setting somewhere Thanks for any assists Rob Yes, looking for the date and time of the table's creation but I would like to have it visible in the Management Studio GUI when I look at the list of tables. Back in SS2K the date and time were visible, but in SS2K5 only the date is visible - I'd like to know if there is a way to make the time portion visibl ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Are samples old or is my intellisense broken?

  Let's say I have this in an App.config file for a WCF service: <configuration> <system.serviceModel> <services> <service type="GreetingsService"> <endpoint address="" binding="wsHttpBinding" contract="IGreetings" /> </service> </services> </system.serviceModel> </configuration> The 'type' attribute for the tag <service> (set to 'GreetingsService' in my example) is not recognized by intellisense. Was this attribute replaced/ dropped and the sample is no longer accurate with the latest WCF or is my intellisense somehow not working and if it is, any ideas how to fix it Thanks, Trevor ...Show All

• SQL Server Using Stored Procedures with Report Builder

  New to the forum here. I'm having a trouble. My company is contemplating using Report Builder as an end user tool as opposed to giving everyone a copy of Visual Studio. I'm studying the feasability on this. A problem I'm running into, is that it doesn't seem possible to use a stored procedure as a data source. All of our standard reports are based off of stored procedures. Now granted, I'm talking about just Report Builder. I know how to base a report off of a SP using reporting services in VS. So, my question is, can you create a report off of a SP using only Report Builder, and if so, the steps Thanks guys! I'm not sure I follow you. By server explorer, do you mean enterprise manager I already have the stored procedures creat ...Show All

• SQL Server Database Mail 101

  Question 1: From what I understand, Database Mail can only be used to Send, not Receive, email. Is this correct Question 2: I can hear our developers saying "way too complicated. When an error conditon is sensed by our app we can simply have the app send an email to our email server. Done." With that in mind what does Database Mail have to offer our developers that they can't easily do in their app TIA, Barkingdog Hello, 1: Yes. DBMail can only be used to send. 2: For a start, Dbmail can be used to issue e-mail alerts in response to database-engine related events (job completion, errors etc) as well as including query results in the message.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Can I store formatted text in sql express?

  Is it possible to store formatted text such as RTF if to an SQL database And while I'm on... Do the MDF files work like the good old Access MDB files The application I'm creating requires swapping from one database to another. E.G. An engineer vists a client and enters data into the database. He then gives a copy of the database to the client. Does the client only require the MDF file or will they need to install SQL Server Express Cheers. I believe they would need SQL Server express installed to access the files and perform the queries etc... In regards to storing formatted text - this is not a SQL issue. SQL just holds "raw" data. So its up to you how you wish to format and store data. ...Show All

• SQL Server Where to use SQLCLR ? Data access is not recommended?

  Just wondering which scenarios is suitable to use SQLCLR. Any kind of data access is not recommended I guess. Only things that cannot be easily done in TSQL should be done in SQLCLR but why Can't those things be done in app layer itself Scenarios recommended for SQL CLR: - External data access like filesystem, registry etc - Complex calculation - Recursion without data access (this can be implemented with CTE for data access) If data access with SQL CLR is not recommended why should CLR should be even used and logic reside in database layer.. it makes no sense to me.

  We are porting an application using DnsQuery from XP to Vista. Every single successful NAPTR query crashes inside dnsapi.lib under Vista (but not under XP).
