• SQL Server Div encapsulating Report

  I have a problem with my reports after upgrading to SSRS 2005. Some of our reports are now wrapped in divs that generate there own scrollbars. This is a problem because our customers have to print via the IE print button (because they cannot download the activex object required for the print in the SSRS toolbar) and when they print they get a single page with scrollbars printed on it Any help anyone could give in solving this problem would be apreciated thanks a lot tom ...Show All

• SQL Server Running Totals

  We are trying to create a report that shows a Week to Date, Month to Date, and Year to Date Week to Date Month to Date Year to Date Item Number I've tried using an if statement (if date = current week, Qty, 0) and then sum the data but I get an error message that reportitems can only be summed in the page header and footer. I've also tried running totals, but it doesn't like the iif statement. Any ideas on how to do this Nancy Nancy, Here's an example of running values with a IIF statement. I believe you can accomplish what you're trying to do the same way. RunningValue(IIf(Fields!elca_employer_number.Value<0,Fields!elca_employer_number.Value, nothing ), count ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Managing Object Permissions using VS 2005 for Database Professionals

  Hello, Does anyone know what is the best way of managing Object Permissions using Visual Studio 2005 for Database Professionals I reverse-engineered an existing database but the IDE created a "post-deployment" script to revoke permissions and then grant them again. The problem is that if some developer decides to add a new Stored Procedure, then he/she will have to remember to add lines in this script too. Is there an easier way to manage this Thanks. Deepak. Dear Deepak, In the current version Post-Deployment Scripts, and specifically Permissions.sql is a proper place to define permissions for your objects. Once it becomes part of the process, Database programmers will remember ...Show All

• Visual Basic User input

  Is it possible for console applications to accept user input If so, what code do I need to include in my console application to do that Here's some sample code for getting user input, which must be a string.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Run a Workflow in a Workflow and cancel it

  Hi, As many others i am quite new to this topic. I found some examples and tried some simple things. I just wanted to know if someone maybe has some finished code for my problem or has some hints how to solve it. I have a Seq-WF-App where i start WF1, constisting of: cdBegin - Code : { Log("Beginn"); } Call Workflow 2 cdEnd - Code : { Log("end"); } In Wf2 i have: cdBegin - Code { Log("Begin"), Loop(10) { wait 1 sec; } Log("end"); } cdEnd - Code { Log("End"). I wanted to know how I can call wf2 in wf1 with a timeout. So i want: Call Workflow2 ( 5 sec ). After 5 seconds i want to cancel/abort/terminate the wf2 i called. What i reached yet is: I Abort() wf2. The Wf2 is currently i ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Develop in VirtualPC / VMWare possible? (Seems not)

  My understanding is that XNA GSE can only be hosted on top of C# Express, not VS2005 Pro. So, I installed it in a VMWare OS. Unfortunately, I get a NoSuitableGraphicsDeviceException when I attempt to run or debug a game (I have VMWare tools installed). Any thoughts on this What about running under Virtual PC I suppose I could program in VMWare, copy the binary over to my host OS, and attach the debugger... oh, wait... that doesn't seem to be an option in C# Express. Back to Square 1. Hi Larry.  C# Express installs side-by-side with VS 2005 Pro.  The S3 Trio video card that is virtualized by Virtual PC doesn't support the required level of D3D the XNA Framework requires. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. your first game!

  Hi, just wanted to express my views on the 'my first game' section... guys, this is a waste of time. please don't do things like this in future. it explains nothing, it teaches nothing. it just lets me copy and past a load of code and then marvel at what the program does. you may as well just give us the file and say look what we did. It's not all negative. the tutorials on visualbasic express were wonderful. I couldn't believe at how insightful they were. is this done by the same people well thats my feelings on that anyway. if your gonna do any kind of tutorial, take some tips off the visual basic ones. and if your gonna ask us to copy and paste code, make it small chunks, and describe what the commands are doing. othe ...Show All
