• Visual Basic can Serial device data be transmit to web_page.aspx directly?

  Hi there, Please help me. I have a serial WiFi device connected to a barcode scanner. Is it possible to create a "web_page.aspx" which can "talk" to the serial device to transmit the captured data to the "web_page.aspx" It's something like this... Barcode scanner (connected to serial WiFi device) --> [Transmit data via WiFi] --> "web_page.aspx" Previously i've used HyperTerminal (HT) to try out the connection. HT uses TCP/IP to connect to the serial device and the transmittion of data is possible. If it is possilbe to replace HyperTerminal with web_page.aspx, how can i do it That's pretty unusual. I don't know enough about it and you real ...Show All

• SQL Server Unable to Connect - SQL Express on Server 2003 from Vista

  Getting error 1326. I'm running SQL Express on Server 2003 SP1 (workstation - although, I did dcpromo promote and demote prior to installing SQL Express). I'm trying to connect from SQL Studio Express on Vista. TCP and Named Pipes are selected in Surface Area Config; sp_config remote, access..., 1 was run (per KB); ports 1433 & 1434 are open (I think 435 also was opened when I ran the KB instructions); Mixed mode is selected, user is set for SQL Auth, password is correct; all permissions are granted. I found an article online which stated that mixed versions of MDAC can lead to the problem. The server has 2.82.1830 and the client has 6.0.5600.16834. Could this be the problem If so, how to solve Thanks, John ...Show All

• SQL Server Bulk Insert from CSV - trouble with .FMT

  I need to bulk insert from multiple files which are comma-separated with quotes as delimiters around each column. I cannot use DTS because the filenames are variable (unless someone knows how to get DTS to read 'DIR *.csv' and then load each file ) This .fmt doesn't work because SQL sees "","" as "" - meaning no terminator - then ,"" where it expects whitespace. 8.0 6 1 SQLCHAR 0 1 "","" 3 Prefix SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS 2 SQLCHAR 0 1 "","" 5 Forenames SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS 3 SQLCHAR 0 1 "","" 4 Surname SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS 4 SQLCHAR 0 1 "","" 6 Job_Title SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS 5 SQLCHAR ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Why were MFC, ATL and masm not included in VC++ Express?

  First off, while I do have a degree in Geology, my minor in college was Computer Science.   Even though I do not have a job that needs much in then way of computer skills, since college I have been trying to keep up my computer skills.   When I found out that Microsoft was offering VC++ 2005 Express Edition as a free download, I was excited because I thought that I would be able to compile programs that I would find of use to myself.   At any rate, I am a little disappointed with VC++ Express Edition because of its limitations.   My question is what was the reasoning behind not including MFC, ATL and masm in VC++ 2005 Express Edition   I understand that the amount of programming that can be done in VC++ Expr ...Show All

• SQL Server "Package Configurations" Problem

  Hi all, I have just set up my first deployment utility for the Integration services package i've been building. I seem to be getting problems with the package Configurations. I added an XML config file so that i could change the values of my SQL connection manager at deployment time. This was so that i could deploy it on both a test environment and the live environment. Any other variables can be changed in code by the calling application. As soon as i added the options for the sql connection manager and enabled package configuration i got errors when running the application: [Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "InternalProductionData Connection Manager".

• SQL Server SMO Trace and the use of template files (*.tdf)

  Hi Micorsoft, I was just wondering if there are any plans to provide the ability to start a trace without a template file. At the moment I have to dynamically create a template file (which is binary by the way) in order to allow a user to set filter options. It will be nice for SMO to provide a better way to interface to these options. (XML file, SMO Class properties ...) Let me know if there are any plans to do this down the track, as it affects my overall design of my application which is currently based on SMO trace technology. Thanks, Jim K. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System /analyze + Windows Vista SDK + VSTS2005 = crash :(

  Apologies for the cross post but this doesn't seem to be generating a lot of interest in 'Visual C++ General' I have been using VSTS2005 for sometime, main reason for upgrade was to use the /analyze compiler option for unmanaged c and c++. Two days ago I downloaded the Windows Vista SDK, installed it and clicked on 'All Programs->Microsoft Windows SDK->Visual Studio Registration->Register Windows SDK Directories with Visual Studio 2005'. Since then compiling my project with /analyze causes VSTS2005 to crash. I would rather not uninstall the SDK as the compiler seems to be finding a lot more issues with my code, before it crashes! Any suggestions what I can do Thanks in advance. ...Show All
