• SQL Server Long duration Pre-Execute phase

  Does anyone know why SSIS sometimes just sits in the Pre-Execute phase of a data flow and does nothing It doesn't matter how elaborate the data flow is or the volume of data. It can sometimes take 80% of the task's run time. Are you able to monitor activity on the source system Perhaps the problem is there.

• Windows Forms Integrate IE into WebBrowser class

  I want to add the address bar and menu bar of Internet Explorer into my WebBrowser class form under C#. Is it doable If so, would somebody please give me a hint of how to do that not entirely doable but you can make your own. Simply add a drop down list on your form and add a button like "GO" or something and implement the selectedindexchanged event of the dropdownlist (combobox) so when the user selects a URL, you will navigate to it. Example: private void comboBox_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (this.comboBox.SelectedIndex > -1) { this.theWebBrowser.Navigate(this.comboBox.Text); } } and perhaps implement the keydown event so you c ...Show All

  Hello! I try to build a COM dll addin which is designed to work together with an external application.. an exe.

• SQL Server OLEDB Destination performance decreasing drastically over time for large input files

  Hi, We are processing 60,00, 000 rows(2 GB file) available in a flat file and loading them in to a database tables using OLEDB Destination components. In the data pipeline of an SSIS package we have 1 flat file source reader, 7 look up components(full cache mode), 1 multicast component and 2 OLE DB destinations with fast load option. We have observed that first 10,00, 000 rows are processed and loaded in to target tables in just 4 minutes time. The second set of 10,00, 000 rows are processed in 15 minutes time. After this for processing each 1,00,000 rows SSIS is taking approximately 8 - 10 minutes time. We are not able to identify the reasons for the unexpected behaviour of SSIS. We thought that as the input file size is ...Show All

• Visual Studio Reacting to Tools->Options changes in custom project

  Here is my scenario, I have a custom project and have also implemented some custom Tools->Options pages. Some of those options in the pages I created can deal with how the project is to be displayed. What I am having a hard time finding a way to do, is react when the Tools->Options page is closed. I've tried looking for a command that may come into the projectNode from one of the Exec() statements with no avail. I also tried going through the DTE.Solution.Projects list on save of my options to see if any of my projects are in the solution. The issue here is that all of my projects come back as ComObjects that I can't cast into my project type to call a method on my project to refresh its view. I'm assuming there is a way ...Show All
