• Visual Studio Team System Generate script for 2000 and 2005

  Hi, The database I'm building needs to run on 2000 and 2005. I have the project set to SQL 2000. Now I have a script that grants execute permissions. It checks the server version and based on that executes a script for 2000 or for 2005. Like this: DECLARE @version CHAR(1) ; set @version = SUBSTRING(CONVERT(CHAR(20), SERVERPROPERTY('productversion')),1,1) IF @version = '8' -- SQL Server 2000 BEGIN DECLARE @sql NVARCHAR(4000) DECLARE @db SYSNAME ; SET @db = DB_NAME() declare @u SYSNAME ; SET @u = QUOTENAME('NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE') set @sql ='SELECT ''GRANT EXEC ON '' + QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_SCHEMA) + ''.'' + QUOTENAME(ROUTINE_NAME) + '' TO ' + @u + ''' FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES ' + 'WHERE OBJECT ...Show All

• Visual Basic Select Case statement being evil

  The select case statement is out to get me! Has anyone else run into the trouble of having a Select Case statement and one of the case statements has hit if you look at the data, but refuses to hit anyway That probably doesn't make sense... Put it this way... I have, say, a ListBox control that has three IP addresses in it. For argument's sake we'll say the three items are: 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.3 These items have the indices 0, 1 and 2 respectively. Now, inside a function that receives a string of data (T) from a network user I have code that's something like this: Dim X As Integer For X = 0 To (ListBox1.Items.Count - 1) Select Case ListBox1.Items(X) Case T 'Code segment 1 Case Else 'Code ...Show All

• SQL Server Delay in package starting when running from SQL Agent

  Hi, I wonder if anybody can shed any light on this problem. I have a SQL Agent job which has three steps, each step runs an SSIS package. The job is scheduled to start at 11.00 pm, which is does successfully. However, it has been taking between 2 and 3 hours to run, which is way longer than it should. When I've looked at the logging, I've found that the although the job starts at 11.00 pm, the first package (in job step 1) does not start executing until about 11.30. It finishes in about 5 minutes, there is then about an hour delay before the second package (in job step 2) starts. This finishes in about 10 minutes, then there is another hour delay before the third package (in job step 3) starts. I've tried configuring the steps ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Word.ControlCollection in an ActionPane

  Hi, I'm trying to develop an Action Pane with a button, this button should create an object like a Textbox in the Application.ActiveDocument. I found in msdn some information about the class Word.ControllCollection that should be right for me (I Hope ). But when I use the method AddTextBox it crash. I supposed that it happens because I'm running it in the ActionPane class. Is it right Is there any workaround Thanks a lot. Without seeing the code, its hard to determine what the problem is. I have an example of doing this in my book (VSTO for Mere Mortals), but since the book hasn't been published yet, I'll share a bit of the code here for you. Things to keep in mind are: Rather than using Activ ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions dates and null values

  My column in sql is of a date data type. I have a textbox that a user can enter a date when certain parameters in the program are met. On occasion a date does not have to be entered in the textbox. This is where I have a problem. The column can accept null values but I am not sure how to program this part. I have a date variable = cdate(txtbox1.text). If nothing is entered in the textbox I get an error message of "can't convert "" to a date) Any help would be appreciated. well I thought you were directly inserting into the database Since you seem to have a Sql/Oledb command in place and executing it - you are directly inserting into the database.

Help would be appreciated. Kind regards. Yes, I have tried to cancel the Bubble effect of the event, but here's a more accurate description of my problem, I hope it's more clearly now.
