• SQL Server Conditional Formatting - not so conditional??

  I have the following code in the color property of a textbox. However, when I run my report all of the values in this column display in green regardless of their value. =SWITCH(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3, "Red", Fields!Wrap.Value < 3, "Green") I already tried =iif(Fields!Wrap.Value >= 3 , "Red", "Green") and got the same results. Is it because this is a matrix report What am I doing wrong Thanks in advance . . . A matrix cell is always in the intersection of a row and a column group. Usually, several detail rows will go into the same matrix cell instance based on the row/column grouping. That's the reason why you get the warning. By just referencing a field ...Show All

• SQL Server Dts Package foreach loop container and Excel connection manager

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) using ws-at in wcf, need to config it first use wsatConfig.exe ?

  Hi all, I want to create a distributed transaction in wcf (and for further development, a 3rd party web service could be added). That's why I want to use ws-at. In order to do that, do I have to set the configuration to enable the ws-at using wsatconfig.exe so i could create a distributed transaction in wcf I've tried this, but at first it generated message that it requires DTC access to be enabled and allow the inbound/outbound in Transaction Manager Communication. I have enabled it. But when I try again to enable WS-AT network support, it always says SSL certificate could not be found. What should I do next Thank you, lingga 1. the svc supported transaction must implement message mode o ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Is DirectDraw supported by Windows CE?

  I have a fast graphics API to support WinMobile 2003+ and I also want to support fast graphics on generic Windows CE devices (non-WinMobile). Should I be using DirectDraw for this If so, should it be provided by the hardware vendor as part of their CE operating system or can i just redistribute DirectDraw on my own. If so, where can I get this redistributable package I'm new to using DirectX. Thanks, George Robert Lettan wrote: v3 supports DirectX6.1 v4.x supports DirectX8 v5 supports DirectX9 Interesting, where did you get this information from Robert Lettan wrote: if you are still unsure about the support, each version of CE also has GDI+ as standard. so you can alway ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) problem in generating proxy file for the typed dataset using Svcutil.exe with Jun CTP

• SQL Server How should I name my history tables ?

  Hi, I want to backup an important table every week in creating some history tables. I would like to create a Dts job or script to create every week a table with the day and month in its name.

• Visual C++ C++ code compiled with Visual C++ 2005 Express runs slower from the IDE

  I have noticed that my code runs slower when invoked from within the IDE. The debug code runs a small job in 21 seconds from the IDE (no breakpoints set) and in 6 seconds when invoked from Windows explorer directly. The release code runs in 11 seconds from the IDE and 1 second when run directly. For comparison, I tried the same code generated by Visual C++ 6 and got 14 seconds when running from the IDE and directly. Is there some setting that affects this I could not find any. Is this normal behavior for this version of Visual C++ Thanks, Peter Hi Peter The VC++ IDE offers the possibility to define configurations which include a set of project settings (like compiler / linker opti ...Show All

• Visual Studio VSIP for other MS platforms

  Hi, I need to know whether addin compiled and tested on Windows (XP for instance) for Visual Studio 7.0, 7.1 and 8.0 compatible with the Visual Studio for XBox360 If the precompiled binaries are not compatible then obviously you'd need to recompile your addin for XDK in which case you'll need VSIP for XDK. Is that avilable In short i just need to know the chances of porting a VS addin developed on Windows to XDK and make it available for Visual Studio XBox360. Thanks in advance. As I suggested, the add-ins are for the Visual Studio IDE, which basically is the same for Windows, XBox, Windows Mobile, Web ,etc. It uses SDKs for the target platform but the IDE is the same. There can be subtleties in the designer windows, since Windows c ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Several REF/Runtime/documentation bugs/suggestions

  Hi, everybody. I've been doing things with D3D10 for some time and I must say that I'm overall impressed, it's a very good piece of software. However, there are some things I'd like to see improved. The first one is improvement of documentation - I hope, that it will be done before release :) There are lots of problems here - some wrong (SampleLevel parameters) / missing (how to use SampleCmp - it never says it needs a SampleComparisonState, in fact it does not even mention such type anywhere - I found it in fxc10.exe; pitch behaviour for block-compressed textures (it is not mentioned in docs as it was in D3D9, though it was different from D3D9 in June SDK - and was changed in August SDK to D3D9 way); the deprecation of BGRA fo ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with changing text in a label

  Hello people. I have a little problem. I am trying to change text in a label depending on what item is selected in a listBox. Here is my code so far: private : System::Void listBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e) { if (listBox2->SelectedValue->Equals( "High Elves" )){ this ->label1->Text = L "19" ; } } Now i thought that this would work, but the text just stays as label1. Any ideas SelectedItem is an object, not necessarily a string. According to the documentation for ListBox, you add Object instances (not necessarily Strings) to a list box, and the actual item displayed is the result of the ToString() method on each object.  (So if ...Show All
