• SQL Server [264] An attempt was made to send an email when no email session has been established

  [264] An attempt was made to send an email when no email session has been established is the error I get when I try to send mail on the database. It is a SQL Server 2005 Standard edition. I have configured database mail and tested it and it works there, then I configured a database operator. then I just created a test job to notify the operator of the job completion, and the email fails. Any ideas Ryk I had the same problem but was able to make it work using tips from this web site. I have W2k3 Standard Server SP1, SS2K5 Standard SP1. Both SS (SQL Server) and SSA (SQL Server Agent) run with Local System account, automatic start up. 1. Configure Database Mail. Create the profile, specify your ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Using a Primative to obscure View

  I'm creating a loading screen. I'm doing this by drawing 2 primatives to form a simple positioned coloured vertex as a rectange. The square is black, and is the width and height of the screen (as in device.DisplayMode). I'd like this to rectange "cover" the screen while textures are loaded. I'm doing it this way so I can fade the loading screen out to reviel the environment once everything is ready to go. However, because the position of the primative is 0, 0, 0 - and I do not wish to move my camera, the primative is obviously at a distance (not covering the screen). Mathamtically, what is a good way to position this rectange directly infront of the camera, without moving the camera, and without adjusting the perspective ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums GeoRSS or XML for adding many points

  I currently use an array to populate about 120 push pins (and growing) on the map, and it appears slow, see http://www.fulhamusa.com/fusamap/membermap.html I tried to use the AddLayer as described in the interactive SDK, but it doesn't appear to GET the data no matter what. If someone could post a simple example with an example of the xml or georss file too that would help greatly. Thanks I implimented a clustering algorithm recently that allowed 100,000 points to be rendered on VE with ease. The two basics are: only render points that are visible and if two points are overlap render a "megacluster" instead. I limited my map to only ever show 200 points. I recommend using AJAX to add the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Web Browser validate URL

  ok...i have another question about a simple C# browser... I found out that if i type something like www.google.com into the browser, it has an error, but if i have the "http://" it will work.  So my question is, how do i detect if the person has typed "http://" or not, and then have the appropiate responses to those situations...i dont think that was clear :)...let me rephrase, suppose the person types http://www.google.com , i want that to go directly to the browser, but if the person types www.google.com , i want the browser to add "http://" Thanks, paoloTheCool :) try this . http://www.codeproject.com/vb/net/IE7_Clone_VS2005_Browser.asp more i will try by code.. hey i m gl ...Show All

• Visual Basic PrintForm Forum only!!

  I've no backexperience on VB6 but more than three years of experience on .net. I'm trying now to play with the printer. PrintForm look to be a very useful utility; only few programming examples are missing. Pls open a specific forum per Power Pack tool. I believe this is just a timing issue. If you call me.Refresh() after changing the backcolor it will solve the problem. Also the PrintForm component contains two methods of capturing the form. I found it I used this override it works fine also: PrintForm1.Print( Me , PowerPacks.Printing.PrintForm.PrintOption.ClientAreaOnly) ...Show All

  I'm working with .NET/C# on the WM 5.0 and have noticed that I can't get a debug spew to show up in VS2005, it will show up in the console window though.

• SQL Server report viewer height problem!! in IFRAME

  Any body has problems using report viewer in IFrame Here is the observation i have....when you assign the report.Height = 400px. It is assigning the report body height to be 400px. when i say report body I mean report body only!! The report parameters section is not included in 400px. The export, print, page navigation button sections is not in 400px either!! Given such properties, when you want to show report viewer in a pre-determined IFRAME (non-scrollable) height of 500px, part of the report and horizontal report scroll bar could disappear , if the paratemeters section is more than 100px (says >2 rows or more than 4 parameters)!! can someone tell me how to lock the height of report viewer size that will include parameters + ex ...Show All

• SQL Server Totals (or Sum) in a Function or View

  I have the following data in a table: Item Qty 1 1 1 -1 2 3 2 -1 2 -1 Using a function, how can I code it so that I get the following: Item Qty 1 0 2 1 Also, if a Qty does equal 0 (as in item 1), can I use a >0 in the Criteria field of the resultant expression to remove it from the Function results Hi, You can put a filter to your results after grouping by using the "HAVING" clause. This will help you remove the 0 summed results. select item, sum(qty) from item_table group by item having sum(qty) > 0 Eralper http://www.kodyaz.com ...Show All

• Visual C++ Multiple Regression

  Good afternoon everyone, I am maintaining software which does statistical analysis. Currently, the code is in VC++ 6, although I am in the process of migrating the entire project to VS2005 C#. At the moment, I need to add a chunk of code which will perform a multiple regression statistical analysis to the VC++6 code. What C++ libraries can I use to perform the analysis I looked at the Gnu Scientific Library (http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/#platforms), but that seems to only compile under cygwin and unix. My google searches turn up nothing. It's really a very straightforward calculation: a least-squares best-fit for multiple variables. Excel does it quickly and simply. Can you recommend a good statistics library that will work for me Than ...Show All
