SQL Server how we get the text() value
how we get the text() value. your always give half answer, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Youe Solution declare @query varchar(8000) select @query = 'select month ' + ( SELECT distinct ',SUM(CASE WHEN Status = ''' + status + ''' THEN Count END) AS [' + status + ']' AS [text()] FROM sometable s FOR XML PATH('') ) + ' from SomeTable group by month' select @query exec (@query) It looks like you are just doing a FOR XML query, so you dont need to use the XQuery text() operator. You should be able to use SQL's CAST/CONVERT operators: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187928.aspx ...Show All

Visual C# How do I stop running a function?
Hello, I need to know how I can stop running a function in the middle of running it. I cannot give any real coding examples but, I can get a structural example and show what I mean. private void TestFunc(string a, string b) { while(a != b) { try { // Code that should run like normal. } catch(Exception ex) { // If the code gets here I should stop the entire function right away! (TestFunc) } } } If the code gets to the catch I have to stop executing the function right away and run another function (which is handled elsewhere). This is a very newbie question but, I've not had to do this yet. Thanks for any help. Quilnux You can return fro ...Show All
SQL Server SSAS and Excel 2007: Server Side Formatting vs Conditional Formatting
I have some server formatting on a measure so as to be able to flag the presence of certain numbers at a lower level for the data. ie: I want to flag a cell if any of the DESCENDENTS is greater than a certain value. I have done this and it works in the OWC browser. I can get everthing to work in Excel 2007 except this.. Excel 2007 doesn't seem to support server side formatting. Is this true I don't think I can acheive this using Conditional formatting.. any ideas anyone Make sure that the connection properties for the SSAS connection from inside Excel 2007 have server-side formatting enabled... In Excel 2007, when on a pivot table that was created from an SSAS 2005 cube, the PivotTable Tools part ...Show All

Visual Studio Express Editions radio box text
I have fourRadioButtons on a form. I want to assign a different text value to each (based on the contents of a picturebox), but I don't know how to. Well you simply set the .Text property of them. Example: Me.theRadioButton1.Text = "new text" Me.theRadioButton2.Text = "new text" .. .. however you need to determine this "content" shown in the picturebox in some way. Perhaps by the Image location/file path of the image ...Show All
Visual Studio Team System Nothing happens when pressing the Report Builder button.
When I press the Report Builder button on the report site homepage, nothing happens. I can see that IE is trying to open reportbuilder.application on a the report server, but I do not see any dialog requesting me to allow the application to run. When I log in on another PC with the same credentials I can create reports using Report Builder. These are the details I get when running the application directly from the server.

Visual C++ Make drive mapped to USB mass storage device read only
Hi I need to make the drive that is mapped to USB mass storage device to read only. I spent hours together to have this done, but in vain. The aim is to make these removable drives read only once they are plugged in the machine, so, files from fixed drives cannot be shipped outside. I need sample/examples in VC++. Thanks in advance. Thanks. I'll pass my program only the drive letter, it could be 'C' drive, or another drive, say 'G' drive mapped to removable USB thumb drive. The program should make the drive read only. What appropriate APIs should be invoked to do that I need pseudocode atleast. I have tried applying appropriate SD that has only requried ACL with specific ACE(s) with specific access rights masks.
