• SharePoint Products and Technologies Can you use Active Directory Manager data in workflow?

  I can’t seem to find a way to automatically rout a workflow task to a user’s manager using the person’s "manager" value from Active Directory.

• SQL Server Encryption - Protect from attacks by programmers?

  I can encrypt columns in sql 2005 but where do I store the key to decrypt the columns I can store the key in the database (or server on which the database resides) but I think that offers little security. I could store the key on another server that the sql server accesses only upon startup (though I don't know exactly how to do that). Or I could store the key on a removable drive that is read (and only needed) when the sql server starts up. What are your ideas on this matter TIA, barkingdog As long as the password is not hardcoded in the application, for the programmers to see, they should not be able to get it from just examining the code. What are your concerns if the user is speci ...Show All

• Visual C# WTS_CONNECTSTATE_CLASS detailed

  Sorry for the specific topic, but can anyone help me to figure out the states of Windows Terminal Server Session Actually, I can use WTSQuerySessionInformation function to find out, what happens with session at the moment. The intresting thing is about the state of connection. Here what I found in MSDN: WTSActive means "A user is logged on to the WinStation." OK, this is understood. WTSConnected means "The WinStation is connected to the client." Erm, not sure, when it happens When user is WTSActive, he IS connected anyway, you now. WTSConnectQuery means "The WinStation is in the process of connecting to the client." And when this happens WTSShadow means "The WinStation is shadowing anoth ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to restore subscription table in TfsIntegration ?

  During evaluation of TeamSystem we accidently unsubcribed ALL events from the subscription table in the TfsIntegration table. I guess we unsubcribed some mandatory TeamSystem events, like DataChangedEvent and TeamSystem will not work properly. My question is how to restore the subscription table. I know that there is a TfsReg Tool, is it possible to use this tool Thanx in advance! I solved my problem now by restoring the old SqlServer backup's.I dind't make lot of changes the last days so this was actually the best solution for me. But anyway it would be nice to have a repair or analyze tool to detect and fix bugs in the TeamSystem database (like the SourceSafe Analyze tool). ...Show All

• Visual C++ Interlocked issues

  Hi, I'm working with Vs2003, targeting multiple platforms and processors (including multicores). I'd like to replace some of the windows' CriticalSections used in our code for something faster. As using volatile (especially with 2003) is not very thread safe (no memory barriers, etc), i went for interlocked operations. Since the code i was suppose to patch was using something that looks like while( !m_bBoolean ) ; m_bBoolean = true; // ... volatile bool m_bBoolean; I introduced a new class to only need to replace the type of the value itself: template< typename T > class VolatileType { enum { LOCKED = 1, UNLOCKED = 0 }; public: __forceinline VolatileType() : _lock(UNLOCKED) { set(0); } __forceinline VolatileType( const T ...Show All

• Visual Basic using tabcontrol's tab pages to select a specific user control from a panel collection

  If you can catch my drift in the code below, I'm trying to select tabcontrol tabs on a tabcontrol on the right side of a split container. (There is a separate tabcontrol on the left, which has tabs, whose selection will spawn a different set of tabs on the right tab control. I am having a difficult time selecting a tab on the right, and having it display the correct user control. I am using only one panel with a collection of controls, rather than a tab page for each control.( For some reason that proved to costly performance wise.)  Does anyone understand what I am 'trying' to do Thanks -greg Private Sub TabControlRight_SelectedIndexChanged1(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TabControlRight.SelectedIn ...Show All
