• .NET Development Which Container to use?

  I am wondering if any body would have an Idea for which container I should use, and maybe some tips on how to impliment it.  I am using reflections to get hash codes from a fully qualified name which includes the application, which form it's on, and which controls are it's parent.  I need to tally how many time people are pressing these controls.  I have the hash codes for them and I want to store the tally with each hash code as the identifying key.  Any idea's would be appreciated. Thanks Matt P.S. - I was thinking about using a hash table but once I put the information into the hash table how do I incriment the value.  This might sound simple and I hope it is, but I don't know how to do it.  A ...Show All

• SQL Server inquiry

  I just have a basic inquiry about sql server mngt studio. I have create about 50 tables under the Master database. i no longer want them there and would like to place all 50 of my tables into another database. The only way I can seem to go about doing it, is to go into the code and change "Use [Master]" to "Use [Quickwire]", where quickwire is my new database name. however, since there are so many tables this is a very tedious process. Is there an easier way...like a copy and paste concept Please let me know if there is..

• SQL Server Executing a whole container in one transaction

  Hello all, I am trying to build a package running a container that includes several tasks: 2 Execute SQL tasks and a data flow task. I would like to execute this container in a single transaction, which means that if any of the tasks fail, no changes are been made by the container execution. To achieve this, I have followed the instructions of how to configure the DTC on the server and locally, and set the container's TransactionOption Property to "Required". The problem I encounters is that when using a dataflow task in the container, the running process runs OK until it reaches the dataflow task, then it just gets stuck (marking the task in yellow). When removing the dataflow task, left with only Execute SQL ...Show All

• Visual C# Numbering convention on drag and drop controls in IDE

  I have a situation where when a user creates a new Foo object using the default constructor, a name is automatically created for this Foo object internally. The purpose of the name is because this Foo object will be immediately added to an internal Dictionary, and the name that was created for it will end up becoming the key of the Dictionary, whereas the Foo object itself is the value. These names obviously have to be unique, otherwise they wouldn't be able to be added to the dictionary. Ok, now the first thing that came to my mind on how to solve this situation was being in a .NET IDE, and I drag and drop a new TextBox onto the form, the name that gets created for this textbox is "textbox1". Now, at first I figured ok, maybe it just a co ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System RACI Questions

  In MSFv4 each Activity is associated with Participating Roles. Those roles are divided into four categories: Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed (RACI). Where are these categories defined What specifically is the difference between Responsible and Accountable Martin Danner Arrowrock Corporation Boise, Idaho Thanks Randy. Please bear with me here, as I am coming from a traditional, plan-driven project management background. I know that MSF incorporates agile project management techniques that are radically different. Frankly I find this new approach extremely fascinating. However, I'm still trying to get a handle on this new world order. So, with that in mind I'm going to risk ...Show All

• Windows Forms Hardware Information in VB.net 2005

  Hi, Are there any good tutorials on retrieving hardware information using vb.net 2005, not 2003 or vbscripts. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Andrew Robinson. What exactly do you need to get from hardware information There really isnt a way in .NET, except for say getting information about the drives in your computer (drive type, capacity etc...) I think you may need to use WMI Example: http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/hardware_properties_c_.asp http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms751672.aspx I think the last link will be the most useful to you ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) confused of creating an instance c#/xaml

  Hi, I have a good grasp of OOP from my Actionscript 2.0 background although I am very new to c# and xaml. I am somewhat confused that I have to create an instance of an object in c# when it already exists in xaml. For example; I create a Storyboard in xaml and call it myStoryboard. If I want to access and manipulate myStoryboard in c# I have to create a new instance of Storyboard before I can set it = to myStoryboard. Why do I have to do this if the instance already exists as it seems to me that I now have an instance of an instance Sorry for the nub question but I just can't seem to fully appreciate the 'why' of this process thank you I dont think you need to create instance again if that storyboard is in resou ...Show All
