• SQL Server Merge Replication not replicating updates

  I have an issue that is only occurring in a production environment. The architecture is filtered merge replication between two SQL Server 2000 SP4 databases. The publisher is standard edition and the subscriber is personal edition. The issue is that is I update certain rows on the subscriber the data is not replicated to the publisher. Inserts and deletes seem to replicate correctly. The issue is specific to certain rows in some tables. If I update other rows the updates replicate correctly. The subscription has been re-initialized once and it did not fix the issue. The replication process indicates that there was not data to merge and the subscriber updates remain and are at that point different form the publisher row values af ...Show All

• SQL Server Replication Error

  I found a problem in replication which we have 3 tables, namely tab A, tab B and tab C replication will apply on tab A and tab B and there is a trigger on tab A and tab B, whenever insert/update on tab A it fires trigger to update tab b whenever insert/update on tab B it fires trigger to update tab C And I found the replication error from tab A on updating tab C. If I manually insert the row, it works fine..... Any advise Thanks in advance! No, actually, the column 'amount_id' is defined as 'not null'. While inserting the row into tab A, it fires the trigger and check the conditions in tab b, and then insert the row into tab c. However, I found the 'amount_id' is defined in the trigger and shouldn't be ...Show All

• .NET Development How to retreave Name of Element When reader returns a type of Text?

  I am using XmlNodeReader to read from an Xml file, but every now and then it returns an node type of Text. The text contains the value so that is no problem but I need the name in order to know where to put the value. This is the reader code: You can remember name of the element when the reader passes it. If you have XML loaded to XmlDocument you don't need to restrict yourself with the XmlReader -- you can analyze XML directly in XmlDocument. In you sample I don't see ant text nodes so I puzzled why you troubled with them. ...Show All

• Visual C++ error C2440: '<function-style-cast>' : cannot convert from 'UINT' to 'CString'

  I got this error while I'm moving the VC++ 6 project to Visual Studio 2005 project. My code is like the following void DumpProperty(LPCTSTR pValue); When I call this function by passing the UINT data type, it causes error. UINT tmp; DumpProperty(CString(tmp)); // Error error C2440: '<function-style-cast>' : cannot convert from 'UINT' to 'CString' No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload resolution was ambiguous The CString class should have a constructure to convert from 'UINT' to 'CString', this code can be compiled successfully on VC++ 6 Thanks Perhaps CString tmp1; UINT tmp2; DumpProperty(tmp); tmp2 = _tstoi(tmp1); may ...Show All

• .NET Development Sending MS Word document without using outlook.

  Hi, We are looking for a way to send styled word document without using outlook. When u create a new mail in outlook word is used. In our project we have some standard word documents that can be used as mail.

• Visual Studio How to create a component designer type designer?

  I'm looking for help or preferably an example in creating something that pretty much does the same thing as the Componet Designer. Ideally I would like a developer to pick my object type from the add new item class, which would create <classname>.cs/vb and <classname>.designer.cs/vb files. My user control would be created to use as the design surface, and my designer would have control over the <classname>.designer.cs/vb file using CodeDom to generate the partial class implementation. I am working on an IRootDesigner implementation right now, but I suspect that that will not be completely sufficient and I keep getting hopelessly lost looking at things like TypeCodeDomSerializer,etc. Any help is appreciated.

• Smart Device Development Background Key Press Listener

  Hi again, I just wrote this, and it dissapeared, so I'll write it again and hoepfully it won't turn into a double thread. I basically want to my program sitting in the background doing it's own thing, or just idling about, and be able to press a key and have this key jump to a function (or perform some action) in my background program. I've looked at RegisterHotKey, but from what I understand, this just puts a message into the message stack. I would rather jump to a function without having to contanstly check the stack. Even something that triggers when the message stack is added to is fine. I basically want a Java type ActionListener. Anyone have any ideas or direction It'd be VERY appreciated...

• .NET Development Microsoft.XMLHTTP failing to uncompress a file

  Hi, I'm attempting to use the XMLHTTP object to fetch a compressed file then load it into an XML object. On a client PC the file is always remaining uncompressed and hence failing to do the load.

• Windows Forms UNC/URL path from OpenDialogForm

  Hi I'm using the OpenFileDialog control in VS .net 2003 to allow users to select file paths and save them into a grid and add a description. Now this works fine for local and network files which can be resolved to a UNC path. My problem is that when trying save the path of a file located on the web with a URL path it downloads the file locally to the users temporary folder and points to that rather then the source path. example: select file at google.co.uk/documents/programming/OFDCode.vb Click Open File is downloaded to temporary folder The .FileName property updated to C:\Documents and Settings\%USER%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\GHGJGZUP\OFDCode.vb I need the .FileName property to return th ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Data Binding: How to bind a group of Radio Buttons to a value/collection?

  Are there any properties that represent the selected state of a group of Radio Buttons Seems that Radio Buttons are very different controls from others in that cannot represent any value in and of themselves, they must be combined with others. Thus one typically wants to bind the entire group to a single value and map the selected radio button in some way to represent a value. In the most simple case 2 radio buttons representing to a collection of {true,false}. Is this the kind of situation where MultiBindings might be applied Thanks NIK I need to bind to a business object, well outside of code behind, but this gives me some of the picture. However, how/where are s: and p: declared I tried ...Show All
