• Visual Studio Language filter on earlier version of MS Document explorer ?

  Hi, I prefer earlier version of MS document explorer( which still ships with MS Platform SDK ) to MS document explorer 8. However language filter settings (am I right ) are not persistent and preserve default values after displaying each new page. I just want to set language filter once, and never use it again. Is it possible thanks Vilius Hello Vilius, The language filter is actually a feature of the documentation as opposed to the viewer (dexplore). The documentation that shipped with earlier versions of Visual Studio (2002, 2003) used a technology that had the limitation you describe. Only with the Visual Studio 2005 content did we rework that feature so that it is persistent from page to pag ...Show All

• SQL Server Updating column values on Insert trigger

  Hi all. I am new at programming ms sql. I have a table with a date field : EventDate DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT GetUtcDate(); Now I need to make sure that if anyone tries to insert a null(ie : the object-mapping mechanism) I replace it with GetUtcDate(). I think I remember that Interbase had a Before_xxx trigger, and in that one you looked at the value of the fields and modified it accordingly. Could not find such a thing here. How do you do that in SQL Server 2000 All I need to do is look at the value in the column and if it is null replace it with GetUtcDate(); Thanks very much for your help, EnriqueM Hi! Thanks for your answer. The null will be sent to the database ...Show All

• Windows Forms Remember Login

  Helloo Is there a way that I can remember login, like cookies in web applications you can, store it to say a database or xml file then look it up next time you are loading the application. However it would be pointless doing this if the user can use the application any way...so you would need some authentication perhaps to compare the stored credentials against a database for example to see if the credentials are the same or not ...Show All
