• SQL Server SQL2005 Enterprise IA64 vs x64 vs x86 performance?

  I went to setup a new SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition cluster and have to admit being quite confused after reading product version and CPU requirements. This is what I seem to understand: SQL 2005 EE in 64bit native on IA64 SQL 2005 EE in WOW64 (32bit emulation) on x64 (does it still use AWE ) SQL 2005 EE in 32bit on x86 Does anyone have performance data or comparisons from having gone through this before Anyone know why the EE x64 version cannot run natively in 64bit is it an artificial limitation (Intel kickbacks :) or a technical one Since the x64 version runs in WOW64 emulation am I better off building this as a 32bit machine wessen- what processor are you running: Intel Xeon EMT64, ...Show All

• Visual Basic Import, Export Access Database Files ???

I have searched around trying to find some documentation on this and have not found a solution. ****************************************************************** The application that I am using, uses an Access database to track trainee data.

If someone could please help me with selecting an .mdb file and saving it to a specified location on th ...Show All

• Visual Studio SubreportProcessing not firing, does it have to be an executable project?

  Summary: SubreportProcessing is not firing when the project output type is not executable. Hi , I am using LocalReport in my application. All the reports are located is inside a library and also all of them are embeded inside the assembly, so far everythings worked fine until I tried to use a subreport. I notice for some reason the SubreportProcessing event does not get fired, in order to test the application, I copied exactly the same files into an executable test project, and I noticed everything work properly there. Can you tell me what is the problem   And if my guess is correct, problem is related to the project output type, how can I achieve this without chaning the project output type Many Thank ...Show All

• Windows Forms Controlling WMP via Windows Forms just like in MS keyboards

  Hi. I've done a lot of searching in MSDN/Google for doing remote controlling via Windows Forms. I wanted to be able to control the playback of Windows Media Player just like if I do it with Fn+Media key to press or one of the 4 media player keys in Microsoft keyboards. I am wondering how they do it as I have included two simple buttons, Play and Stop -- nothing else. So because I don't want to embed Windows Media Player control into Windows Forms application, I wanted to be able to remotely control the real Windows Media Player. To be clear, I wanted to be able to control a real Windows Media Player just like a remote control. Is that possible only with the Windows Media Player SDK Am I asking the impossible Never mind my post. I' ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XNA Book ( In Progress )

  For reasons I cannot exactly put into words, I’ve decide to write a (free) book about how to use XNA.   It is defiantly a work in progress and thus far only includes two chapters and associated source code. I truly hope that my work is advantageous to some people out there. I am in part doing this as a practice towards writing technical documentation.   I am not accomplished in writing instructions for other people that may not have the same level of technical skill sets as myself.   I hope that with this book I learn a whole lot and more in that regard. Granted, if you are a diehard game programmer, what I have written is probably not for you, at least, not yet! Yet I would value your input.   If you feel like c ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista VISTA x64 Development Platform

  Hi there, I was hoping to start looking at doing some development on Vista x64. I cannot find the download on MSDN subscriber downloads anymore, I can only find the x86 version. Does anyone know what the situation is with the x64 version It thought I saw it there a week or so ago. Also, given that I do manage to get the x64 version installed, is there a x64 version of Visual Studio available yet For your reference I have a MSDN Professional subscription. Many thanks, Gareth. MSDN removed the x64 download temporarily to take the strain off the servers from all the downloads. Visual Studio 2005 supports both x86 and x64 development.
