• Architecture Synchronizing Legacy DB and Application DB

  Hi All, We are developing a solution which requires consulting some information on legacy systems. There is also a requirement to keep the system available even if the legacy systems are out. We are thinking about replicating the information on our application DB as a contingency (it is acceptable if the data we have to use does not change often). My questions are: Have anyone used a different solution for a simmilar requirement If not, what would be the best way to do this 1) Implement a windows service that update our DB copy from time to time (the problem here is that our application is running on a cluster, so we need to control the concurrency between the services running on each cluster machine) 2) Use som ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Registering Express probs

  I have installed both VB express and Web Developer Express today. When i go to the help -- Register product the window telling me to click the link to register comes up. I click on the link, IE6 launches great but no Page comes up. There is no URL either in the address box. This is the same for both products. I got into registering the web express by a URL that someone had on this site, but the key i got didn't work. Can anyone help please. Geoff Well i found the problem.

• .NET Development Seperating Data stuff from C++ apps

  Hi,   This is probably for most of you a very basic question.  My goal is to define in a seperate instance from application all infos related to DataSets and DataAdapters that are needed when connecting to a specific database.  Why      First, I would like to be able to have in a single instance everything needed when hooking to a SQL Server Express database and in an other everything needed when hooking to a SQL Server CE database.  Then, from application, I would like to be able following a few basic configuration steps to choose from one or the other, or even both in specific cases.   Second, I want to be able to seperate Database related stuff from application so that I ca ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Custom Username and password for authentication

  Hi I'm trying to have a service authenticate over the internet (HTTP or HTTPS) to a custom username and password list. I understand that I can use a MembershipProvider and link that in using the WCF config file. My question is what kind of transport do I need to use (basicHttpBinding or wsHttpBinding) and what kind of security do I need to define on the client and the server (Transport Security Message Security ) Also, on a related but further note, I need to be able to see which logged in user is calling the service so I can get their account details etc. Is this found somewhere in the OperationContext object Hope that's enough detail for what I'm trying to achieve!

• SQL Server Changing default directory for stored procedures

  I want to change the default directory for my stored procedures. It is extremely inconvenient for me that they are placed in \documents and settings\... I cannot find a place in the Tools where I can change it. Thanks. Thank you Andrea. Then what can I do about this, I would say, serious problem I make a modification in my stored procedure, and try to save it. The only options I am given is to save a " Query1 " (it may be Query23 " or something) or " save as ." Let's say I save d it. Then I close the SQLEXPRESS and open it up again. Go to my stored procedure and cannot find my changes. Now it does not seem to happen every time but so annoyingly often that I cannot see any pattern to change my b ...Show All

• SQL Server Report Manager Error

  I have seen this issue in other posts, but I've never seen a way to fix it. When I try to access the Report Manager, I get the following: Server Error in '/Reports' Application. The DLL is there, for some reason it doesn't seem to be looking in the reportserver folder... I tried to uninstall .NET 2.0 but it says it won't do it because it will disable applications (duh) I might HAVE to thrash the server because I have to have this running in the next two weeks! I'll keep noodling with it... if you think of anything else, let me know.. ...Show All

• Visual J# How to close a blocking DatagramSocket?

  Hi; I have a DatagramSocket that is waiting on a receive: DatagramPacket pkt = new DatagramPacket(new byte[100], 100); mySocket.receive(pkt); I need to close the socket when my application is ending (it is in a worker thread). I presently call mySocket.close() and that works but I get: net.windward.xmlreport.b: [formatter] ac.server WARN net.windward.xmlreport.b - direct java.net.SocketException: A blocking operation was interrupted by a call to WSACancelBlockingCall net.windward.xmlreport.b: [parser] ac.server WARN net.windward.xmlreport.b - multi java.net.SocketException: A blocking operation was interrupted by a call to WSACancelBlockingCall The thread 0x9d8 has exited with code 0 (0x0). net.windward.xmlreport.b: [p ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) export to image with black block

  My code is: RenderTargetBitmap rtb = new RenderTargetBitmap((int)canvas1.Width, (int)canvas1.Height, 96d, 96d, PixelFormats.Pbgra32); rtb.Render(sp); BmpBitmapEncoder encoder = new BmpBitmapEncoder(); encoder.Frames.Add(BitmapFrame.Create(rtb)); FileStream file = new FileStream(Environment.CurrentDirectory + "\\temp.bmp", FileMode.Create); encoder.Save(file); it run without exception,but the image ' blank area was fill with black block,why Interesting.

• SQL Server Serious error in RS licensing docs on MS web site

  Correct me if I'm wrong... There is a potentially costly error in at least 2 Reporting Services 2005 licensing docs on Microsoft’s web site. They fixed the docs a few months ago after I called and told them about it but, now they are bad again! Here are links to the bogus docs: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/howtolicensers.mspx http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/sqlserverlicensing.mspx Both of these docs say that you need 2 SQL licenses to run Reporting Services 2005 on a separate server from the SQL engine. This is not true. You only need 1 license! You do of course need the correct number of CAL's or a CPU license. The license.txt file that ships on the SQL Server 2005 standard edition ins ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Hiding deleted items on grid

  Hello What I want to do is to hide deleted items in a grid in real time. I have a grid bound to a PRODUCT table. The grid displays all the products I have. I have SET DELETED ON in the Form's Load event In the grid's INIT event I have SET FILTER TO NOT DELETED() and in the DELETE event I have Thisform.grid.Refresh, to refresh the grid every time I delete an item. In a button called "DELETE PRODUCT" I have the following code DELETE So, when I choose a item in the grid, I click the DELETE PRODUCT button and the grid behaves a little weird, 1- The last record in the grid gets deleted not the one I chose. 2- The grid gets refreshed only when I click in another Item inside the grid.

• SQL Server Output Buffer Remove Row?

  I am using a script component to create the output buffer dynamically. I use the Outputbuffer.AddRow() call. I then set all the fields I want, and its added to the output and later inserted into the database. If a field value fails it causes an error, but the record is partially inserted upto the point where the set field command caused the error. So if I set 10 fields, and it fails on field 5 it inserts data for the 5 fields that worked and nulls into the others. As a result I have a try catch clause, and if it fails I want to cancell the addition of the new row. Is there a command like RemoveRow(), rollback, etc that can be used to not insert the record in error Sample code.. Try PaymentOutputBuffer.AddRow() PaymentOutp ...Show All
