• SQL Server Drillthrough results conditioning

  Hi, I would like to be able to set a condition to define the results of my drillthrough in AS 2005. Let's use an example to explain what I am trying to do : We got a Cube with 2 dimensions ( Time, Products ) and a measure ( Sales Amount). In our cube we have stored detailed informations about our vendors, customers and stores. The following statement should return all rows from the columns Customers, Vendors and Stores names. DRILLTHROUGH SELECT {[Time].[Time hierachy].} on Columns, {[Products].[Product.hierarchy]} on Rows FROM My_Cube WHERE ([Measures].[Sales Amount] RETURN [Fact].[Sales Amount] ,[$Vendor].[Vendors name] ,[$Customer].[Customers name] ,[$Stores].[Stores name] I wonder if it is possible to set a conditi ...Show All

• SQL Server Referencing a CLR DLL in a Custom Task

  Is there a way you can reference a prebuilt CLR function in a custom dataflow task The CLR and the custom dataflow task are one in the same. The reason that I'm designing the custom task is that I find that it's time consuming to make a call to the database to retrieve a function to work on something that's already in memory. Also, another reason is that if the code needs to be updated, it doesn't have to be done in 2 places allowing for less confusion. I tried adding a reference to the CLR function in my SSIS dataflow task, but when I try running it in SSIS, I get the error saying it cannot use a SQL CLR defined task in the package which I believe is due to this reference in the CLR code: [Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.

• Visual Studio Any books for VSIP SDK Explanations with code examples

  Hi, I'm very much new to VSIP, so i don't know how to start and how to use it. If anybody know how to use it or if any books available for the same, please let me know. Thanks in Advance, Regards, Saravana Kumar B Hi Dmitry, It looks like the VS team has moved their video content away from www.vsipdev.com . At the time I wrote the response, the link was still active and accurate. There seems to be quite a bit of web content at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/extend/webcasts/ , although not everything that used to be available appears to be there any more (e.g. there was a webcast on unmanaged project systems before).

• SQL Server ODBC connection failed, but...

  Running a database using sql server. User, rights, password set up on the server side and is functioning fine on the users normal desktop. But here is the problem. When the user goes to a different desktop they have never been on before and a new user profile is created on that desktop, they are unable to access the database. When using the front end (access), an odbc connection failure popup occurs when trying to retrieve data. The wierd part is that the odbc connection was set up under admin tools just like it is setup on the working desktop. Also the connection tests successfully. This leads me to believe that it is a desktop side problem and not server side. It is only a problem when a new user profile is setup on a desktop that the us ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Records encryption

  Hi, I am currently saving some records with VBs records function of files. The problem is that anyone could open and see them with a text editor. I was thinking of encryption, possibily symmetric one. With the password used to login, I would encrypt them so only the password owner can see them with the program. What do you recommend that is easy, needs no external files or strange things Also, I know records size can be calculated (eg, add 2 bytes per character *10 characters *1000 records to give the total file size), would any encrypted file keep that exact size, eg 1 byte encrypts to 1 byte Thanks. As long as the .NET framework is supported then the file can be encrypted using the methods above...So y ...Show All
