• SQL Server Time dimension limits kills performance

  Hi, I have a cube with a fiscal time dimension like that: Year = 2005, 2006, 2007 Quarter = 20051, 20052, 20053 Then months and weeks using format like 200501, 200502 etc. Cube is partitioned by quarters, 12 partitions in total. Now what puzzles me is this: - When I query this from an Excel pivot and set no limit on the time dimension so I get something like total 2005, 2006 by quarters and 2007 by weeks, the query processes in a few miliseconds - When I query this from an Excel pivot and exclude something from the time dimension so I would get only 2006 and 2007, the query now takes up to 30 minutes. The code generated by Excel is much different between the 2 situations however, since the cube is partitioned by ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Problem regarding Serialization of Attribute

  hi friends, I want to serialize data type named Paragraph of System.Windows.Documents namespace and for this purpose I have written the following code in the application : [DataContract(Namespace = "ServerFileUpload")] public class mypara { public Paragraph para; public mypara() { para = null; } [DataMember(Name = "Para", Order = 0)] public Paragraph Para { get { return para; } set { para = value; } } } But when I initialize an object of mypara class to use the property Para then the error message is generated suggesting that the "System.Windows.Documents.Paragraph" is not serialized and try to make it serialized it using DataMember attribute which is defined under a Data Contract Attribute. ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS 2005 - can't float code nor design windows!!!?

  I'm getting pretty sick of tabbing back and forth, especially when I have a 3 monitor setup with plenty of screen space to display my aspx form/design on one monitor and .vb code on the other monitor. One truely time saving feature doesn't make it into VS 2005 ! Come on Redmond, this is IDE basics 101 -- I can float my solution explorer but I can't float my code window nor my design window -- freakin' brilliant. Someone needs to let the MS design team out of the vacuum they seem to live in - hello, planet earth, useful features please. Argh, just more frustration with an already horrible dev tool. Rob. thanks Luke, I explored that option, but not really a good solution for me as that would ...Show All

• Windows Forms Night Vision

  I am working on a military application that needs to support a "night vision" mode - that is, make the application appear in a green scale color pallet to make it easier on the eyes in reduced lighting. Now, I know I can take an approach that will "skin" or "theme" my application to make it appear green (our GUI COTS product Infragistics NetAdvantage makes this possible), but it still isn't a 100% solution because we would need to re-do all of our images/icons that we use in the app to a green scale version, and then code the functionality to change the images at runtime when needed. Further, because we display maps and map information, there isn't an easy way to change all of the maps into a green scale. Havi ...Show All

• Visual C++ CScrollbar Question

  I'm trying to find out where the scroll box is while it's being dragged. When I do a TRACE() using GetScrollPos() it returns the starting position. How do I get ahold of the position while I'm scrolling The problem is that nPos in OnVScroll is a 16bit value. If you scroll positions are larger than you can't rely on the argument. You need to use GetScrollbarInfo, with this function you can get the true 32bit position of the scrollbar! ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Missile CommandeEr Game (including Source) - XNA 1.0 Release

  First XNA game...done!  It's an old school missile commander clone (only its CommandeEr, like pirates...ARRRR!!!).  I spent extra time to maintain the original "cutting edge" graphics to make it a true classic.  Check it out...

I haven't played it much but my top score is 16440 on level 18. I'm pretty sure that other people have done way better :) I think the score penalty for hitting destroyed cities should be raised again. The problem that I f ...Show All
