• SQL Server How to execute SSIS package with configuration stored in SQL server?

  Hi, I have a SSIS package called "MyExport" stored on the SQL server 2005 standard SP1. I have created an SSIS package configuration stored in a SQL table msdb.dbo.SSIS Configurations, with the configurationFilter = "Export2" with some configuration values which I can change programmatically as needed. How do I execute this package with the configuration in the SQL table I don't seem to have any problem when the package configuration is stored in an .xml file.

Can someone give me an example of a dtexec command for the above or maybe some c# code In Ex ...Show All

• Visual Basic Thanks Jim: New Problem

  I need to use the OPEN statement to open a file on another computer in my home network. Does anyone know what the File String should look like i.e. something like Open: "C:\The File" For Random as #1 Len = Len(Type) Except I need a valid path to the other computer! Thanks Forget that last post. While doing earlier testing I placed a Close statement in my code that I hadn't noticed. New Problem: The file won't CLOSE. It won't even close using Close without an argument i.e. "Close" Any ideas Dave ...Show All

• Visual Studio Small problem - Long namespaces truncated

  Hey folks, I don't know if anyone mentioned this, but if your Namespaces are long, for example. MyCompany.MyGroup.CommonLibraries.MyProject When the CHM file is built, the text of these namespaces will be truncated on the Namespaces page of the resulting help file. Thanks! G May I suggest then, that you allow the Namespace text to wrap in the cell instead of truncate. It will make the doc more readable without any crazy table layouts. Thanks!! -George ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Convert decimal to fraction

  Does VB have any built-in function to convert a decimal number to a fraction What I need is a way to convert a decimal number into a fraction string rounded to the nearest 32nd. So for example, .375 would be converted to "3/8" or .428 would be converted to "7/16" after rounding. If VB doesn't have this built-in, does anyone have code for a function to do this Thanks... DMan1, I was searching the forum on a completely different subject when I came across your post. The term GCF caught my eye. Your function getGCF works fine, but there is a much more elegant solution to this problem that was developed by Euclid . Yep, it is the same Euclid who developed geometry, a long, long ...Show All

• Windows Forms Do Not Merge Menus of MDI & Child

  I see several threads over the past few years on how to merge menus from the child on to the MDI - as it does this by default it's just a matter of how you want them to appear. However, I would like to maintain 2 separate menus - 1 on the MDI, and 1 on the child. If I change the Merge Type from Add to Remove it removes it from the MDI menu, but does not display it on the child form. Any suggestions would be appreciated. GRaab Hey Michael; I've added the menu to the child form, but am missing where (in design mode or programmatically) to tell it to NOT merge the menus. It merges them by default. Most times that great, but this time I need to keep them separate. Do you know what option defines the merge in the design mode, o ...Show All

But how do i link these two tables and also do the link in the combobox and datagrid.

The SQL statement is like "SELECT * FROM bookinformation WHERE bookID = @bookInGroup", and evaluate the param such as SqlParameter.Addwithvalue("@bookInGrou ...Show All

• SQL Server Question on Report Builder

  I am launching the Report Builder from my web application. The launching works fine. The Report Builder displays all the models published on the Report Server, whereas the user launching the report builder doesnt have permission on most of the folders containing the models.

The Report Server and the Report Builder folder under that both are running with Integrated Windows Authentication. Is there anything am missing to check I want the user should be able to see only those models, which he/she has been given permission to access.

• Visual Studio Uninstall Failure

  Ok ... so I really "messed" up ... wanted to install latest GAT/GAX ... uninstalled GAT ... then tried to uninstall GAX ... but this failed because I still had a Guidance package registered ... <sigh> (forgot about that) ... I then reinstalled the old GAT ... opened the solution to try and de-register it ... no luck ... it failed ... so, uninstalled GAT again ... then went through the registry and removed all references to my guidance package (it was called BaseLibrary) ... then I did a search of the hard drive and removed all references and I even did a file search to look inside the files to find those that might reference it. I tried the uninstall from the msi and Add/Remove Programs with the same result. Have also reboo ...Show All
