• Visual Studio Team System The maximum number of errors has been reached.

  On building a database project i am getting 0 error, 200 warnings and 1 message. Message is - "The maximum number of errors has been reached. 41 total errors and 1231 total warnings were encountered." As a result i am not able to build the solution.Is there any way to ignore this message and go ahead with building and deploying the solution Or if there is any way to resolve the issue then please let me know. Thanks. As Alle aluded to, you should be able to see all warnings and errors in the output window when you do a build. From within the output window you should be able to double-click on the errors and go to the appropriate file. Another approach would be to suppress those warnin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions One to Many relationships

  Is it possible to create a one to many relationship in VB express sql database I wish to relate a primary key in one table to several fields in another table. If this is possible what is the best way to go about this I have tried the diagram method and it does not seem to like having more than one foreign key between the same two tables. I'm pretty sure it is possible. You need to get your hands on a better database designer. Try SQL Server Management Studio Express . For a better answer, post at the SQL forums. ...Show All

• SQL Server Urgent - No mapping between account names and security IDs was done error !

This is Sql Server Express running on a domain controller - Windows Server 2003 R2. Everything i find ont he net refer to IIS, DHCP etc etc , i cannot find the issue regrading sqls server configuration manager. Thanx Two things - ensure that the user account you're starting wityh has permissions to log on locally. If in doubt, add them to a local group that can. Second - if this is a new account, make sure you wait for the account to replicate through the domain. This can take up to 15 minutes o ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unlike Mercury Loadrunner, "value" null, "error", null displayed in web browser

  Using LoadRunner, copied the body of the request into a form parameter and parameterised the values. Upon running the web test, instead of the next page appearing,the following are displayed on the web browser section of the results. "value" null, "error", null  I looked at the context of the response and realised that the correct values of the form parameters were returned. However the body of the response displayed  {{"value" null, "error", null }} and hence cannot make progress with scripting I got the post body from Mercury load runner because VS2005 didnt record the post body. I cannot use VS2005 with SP1 applied because of the bug in SP1 preventing play back of HTT ...Show All

• Visual C# Oracle Data Provider

  I would like to add a reference to "Oracle.DataAccess.dll" to my project but it is not showing up in the .NET tab of the Add Reference Dialog. I know that Visual C# Express 2005 is delivered with only "Access" and "SQLserver" connection types but I was wondering if anybody succeeded in adding an Oracle data provider through a "backdoor". Provided you have the Oracle client installed which you can download and install from Oracle. Then, Go to Oracle's website http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/odpnet/utilsoft.html Once downloaded and installed using the Oracle's Universal installer. This will install and place all of the .dlls into the proper ...Show All

• Visual Basic Upgrade and Version Question

  I have an application where I have stored some user information in the My .Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.CurrentUserApplicationData Folder. When there is an upgrade to the product I would like to carry the data from the older versions folder to the new versions folder. I have code that upgrades the my.settings but nothing for the user data. I know I can easily copy the data files from one folder to another but how do I know what the previous version is Is there an easy way to get this information or does anyone have an idea how to calculate the previous version I found out that the in the assembly information the file version controls what "version" library the users files are save ...Show All

• Visual Basic Can't Get VB6 Serv Pak 6 to install in Vista RC1

  Has anyone gotten VB6 Service pack 6 to install in VISTA RC1 I tried and it errors out with some cryptic error about a missing file and quits. VB shows no sp installed and programs that were created with SP6 installd on XP will not run in the API on Vista RC1 with an error message "Component missing". Has Microsoft a fix for this We have lots and lots of custom written programs that we will have to maintain and support on VISTA (if installed) and there seems no way to do it because the service Pack 6 can't install. Chris, Thank you for the information. Setting VB6 to run as Admin did work for the error I was getting when trying to run the IDE. However, I am still unable to install SP6. It looks like the only ...Show All

• SQL Server Package Validation Error

  I have a package which takes a text file and imports data into a SQL table. It returns the Package Validation Error: Error at Data Flow Task [SQL Server Destination [1430]]: Failure inserting into the read-only column "ZipCode". The column ZipCode in the sql table is a varchar(50) column. I do not understand why it thinks the column is a read only column; if someone could shed some light on this I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks! GN Okay I've confirmed that it is a permission error. When I use my login, which has sysadmin privleges, for the database connection there is no problem inserting into the table fields.

• SQL Server #Error using IIF and divide by zero

  I am getting an error in a calculated field that could potentially divide by zero, even though I'm using an IIF. The column displays in the report as "#Error". My expression looks like this: = IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0, "None" , Fields!Hours.Value / Fields!Qty.Value) I have successfully used this approach with INT fields, but this time the Hours field is a NUMERIC(9,2). My workaround is to do this: IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0, "None" , IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0, 42, Fields!Hours.Value) / Fields!Qty.Value) I guess the 42 is cast to an INT inside the second IIF and the calculation works. What's strange is that the division would even be carried out in the event of Qty = 0 from the first II ...Show All
