Visual C++ ATL COM MTA And STA Models
In STA COM Environment do the events go to the subscribed client in a queue In MTA COM Environment do the events go to the subscribed client in a queue If the answer is no do we have to use Mutex in the subcsribed client event function to prevent Accesing the same object in the same time. Please answer all the questions and note that I am not asking COM interface functions but interface events like Fire_Start(unsigned short objectID); Thanks in advance Since you haven't gotten any replies yet, you should direct this question to http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx dg=microsoft.public.win32.programmer.ole&lang=en&cr=US .

SharePoint Products and Technologies Alerts not being sent
About a month back Sharepoint stopped sending alerts to subscribers. Notification is only sent when a new user is added. No other alerts are working for any of the Sharepoint sites on the server. I've searched pretty extensively for a solution and the closest I have come is: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894632/en-us. But the kb solutions did not correct the problem. The SP installation is running on server 2003 sp1 and the SP version is 2.0 (version no. 11.0.6361.0 (sp1)). At this point I'm baffled but I really need to get this fixed. Any ideas or help is really appreciated. Sounds like your WSS search is broken. Follow these instructions to fix it. Shane Young ...Show All
SQL Server How does SQL Server 2005 work with old applications
Hello All, How does SQL Server 2005 work with all ready existing applications that ran on SQL Server 2000. Does SQL Native Client work backwards compatible to the old applications, And if it is, is there anything special I need to do. If it is not backwards compatible, do I need to use the old MDAC How would I use it in SQL 2005. Thanks all..... Nina You can use the SQL Server 2000 Best Practices Analyzer to scan an existing SQL Server 2000 database to look for problems that you may encounter when upgrading to SQL Server 2005. When you first upgrade a SQL 2000 database to 2005 (by restoring from a backup or detaching and the attaching), it will be in 8.0 compatibility ...Show All

Visual Basic Inernet
Using Vb, is it possible to download zipped files from a website, unzip them, and then use the files inside Steve it is. you can use either the ftp or httpwebrequest classes to take in the request, save the file then do whatever you want with the file. to extract the zip file, you can either "shell" it out using a 3rd party software or maybe use the Gzip classes/stream in .NET 2.0. here is a small example achieving the downloading of a file: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/FileDownloadManager.asp gzip class: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.compression.gzipstream.aspx hope it helps! ...Show All
Visual Studio Team System Team Foundation Server and Incident Management
Hi, For our managed services department we have just started we are thinking about buying an incident management system. Since we do not only proviced operational support but also support for our products I was wondering if it would be a good idea to use TFS and Team System as our incident management system. We currently not using TFS and Team System. Does anybody have any experience with this and would it be the "rigth" tool for the job Thanks, Jay Definitely not. The closest you'll get to incident management in Team Foundation Server at the moment is work item tracking, and that is mostly developer-/architect-/tester-centric. I think Microsoft either has plans for or is curren ...Show All

Visual Basic Full Text Search in Visual Basic
I am trying to create a simple full-text search application in Visual Basic (2005 Professional trial version). I have been successful in doing full-text searches within SQL Server Management Studio using SQL queries, so the database has a working catalog, index, etc. Here is a sample SQL query statement that I have used in SQL Server Management Studio: SELECT SectionText FROM Full_Documents WHERE CONTAINS (SectionText, ' "radio" '); This query returned all the rows containing the word “radio” within the SectionText column of the Full_Documents table.

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) ListView performance when resizing columns.
Hi, I'm using the ListView control with a standard GridView. I have about 8 columns bound to a DataSource (which inherits from Collection<T>) using aDisplayMemberBinding for each column. I don't give a CellTemplate - I just let the GridView display the values as Text. My problem is with Performance. I have about 250 items in the Grid (I'm going to need up to about 600), and yet already the performance is not good: specifically with resizing the columns. Clicking a column border and then dragging takes about a second to respond. Is this a known issues Is there something I can do about it Thanks, Sam Hi, Sam It should not be so slow as you mentioned. I guess the reason is all the it ...Show All
