• Windows Forms Draw on top of Image

  Hello. I have a custom control that loads a large image and displays it on screen (using scrollbars). The problem is that I want to draw on the visible part of the image (the part that is currently on screen) and I want to be able to modify the things that I'm drawing (i.e. if I draw a line on top of the image, I want to be able to remove that line later). I did something like this, with the help of this forum: (where Image image = Image.FromFile("picture.jpg"); ) protected override void OnPaint( PaintEventArgs e) {    e.Graphics.SmoothingMode = SmoothingMode .AntiAlias;    Rectangle src = new Rectangle (-AutoScrollPosition.X, -AutoScrollPosition.Y, this .Width, this .Height);    Rect ...Show All

• SQL Server Is it possible to create clustered index for multi tables within a SQL Server 2005 database within a query?

  Hi, all, I am having up to serveral hundred tables within a SQL Server 2005 database, up to 200 of them are without any clustered index. Is it possible to create clustered indexes for all of them together in a same query :) Thanks a lot for any guidance and advices for that. With best regards, Yours sincerely, Yes, it is possible with WHILE loop and dynamic SQL (with either sp_executesql or EXEC statement) that calls CREATE INDEX. However, the tricky part is you have to specify the column(s) for each table to be included in the index in the CREATE INDEX statement. So if you have a way to programmatically get the table names and the index column(s) for each table, it is easy to do the rest. ...Show All
