• Visual C# What is with all of the files for a simple program?

  I posted this in the IDE section but got no reply so I am trying it here. I am just learning C# and made a solution for a command line program. I would like to know what the heck all of these output files are for and can I somehow force them not to make subdirectories. I was able to remove the bin directory but not the obj\Debug etc. directory. Also don't understand the Test.vshost.exe file and the duplicated Test.exe and Test.pdb files. \---Test | Test.sln | \---Test | Program.cs - Main Program | Test.csproj - Project | +---bin | \---Debug | Test.exe - Executable | Test.pdb - program database for debugging | Test.vshost.exe - WHAT IS THIS FOR | +---obj | | Test. ...Show All

• SQL Server Microsoft Participation in this forum

  The VSTS team have posted a really useful manifesto for their participation in MSDN forums which I have read here: https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=885414&SiteID=1 I'd like to politely suggest that the SSIS team do something similar on here. People have different expectations of what involvement Microsoft do/should have on this forum and it would help if Microsoft could clarify their position on this. -Jamie Jamie Thomson wrote: The VSTS team have posted a really useful manifesto for their participation in MSDN forums which I have read here: https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=885414&SiteID=1 I'd like to politely suggest that the SSIS team do something similar on ...Show All

• Visual C# Creating a line in the registration database in Windows, and the Using/changing this value?

  Ok. First of I am creating an application which does a lot of communication with a database. Several databases actually, and what I would like to do is have a couple of lines in the registry which contains the IP of these databases. Say, key Production=10.10.10.10 key Report=10.10.10.11 key Distributing=10.10.10.12 How do I create these using the windows installer How do I use this information in a connection from the program to a server How can I change this if the IP changes of one of these servers I don't know if this is the best solution, but I think the information is good to know stuff anyhow. Different ideas are welcome, but I think this is the way I want to do it. Sune Se ...Show All

• SQL Server Wildcard characters in MDX?

  Is it possible to use wildcards in MDX I am getting null values when I use the syntex [Product].[%Cola%] in an attempt to bring back all products that have the word 'cola' in the name. I can't find any reference to wildcard characters for mdx in Books on Line, any help is greatly appreciated. Wino MDX does not have the concept of wildcard characters in the same way that SQL does. You either have to use the filter() function in combination with the instr() function to search the name property of a set of members. eg. FILTER([Product].Members,Instr([Product].CurrentMember.Name,"Cola",1) >= 1)) (If you are using AS2k, this is your only real option.) Or, if you are using SSAS 2 ...Show All

• .NET Development Client Authentication using X 509 certificates

  I am a WSE newbie and am trying to authenticate a client application (written in .NET) to a web service (written in .NET) using WSE 3.0. All I care about is authenticating the client and do not care about encryption or mutual authentication. When I am using the WSE 3.0 wizard to generate the client side policy file, it forces me to enter the name of a server certificate (which does not seem right) along with the client cert (which is right). My understanding is that the server cert (only the public key is needed on the client) is needed to authenticate the server, as in a mutual authentication scenario. Now if my use-case is only to authenticate the client, and not care to authenticate the server, how do I do that in WSE 3.0. If ...Show All

Is this possible Thanks in advance Hi Catherine, Not 100% why you should get that message. I assume you have Outlook and not another email client. You could try a modification to this line.

• SQL Server DTS Packages Unspecified Error

  WE have dts packages created with ftp component in Sql 2000 dts designer. At the same time client where we are developing the package has sql 2005 components.
