• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) Web Application templates for VS Express?

  Hi, just wondering if there are any templates available for VS Express On the homepage of one of the downloads specified in the Release Notes it is stated that "To fully enable Web Application Projects in Visual Studio 2005, you will need to first install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 – Update to Support Web Application Projects , then this add-in. Visual Studio 2005 Web Application Projects are not supported in Visual Web Developer Express Edition." Is there perhaps a way to register the template by hand The installer for the VS template states that it "ended prematurely because of an error", probably because of the the missing "Web Application Project" add-in. Suggestions anyone /Simon ...Show All

• SQL Server VERY large binary import/export headache

  Hi, I am currently importing (and exporting) binary flat files to and from Db fields using the TEXTPTR and UPDATETEXT (or READTEXT for export) functions. This allows me to fetch/send the data in manageable packet sizes without the need to load complete files into RAM first. Given that some files can be up to 1Gb in size I am keen to find out a new way of doing this since the announcement that TEXTPTR, READTEXT and UPDATETEXT are going to be removed from T-SQL. I had a quick foray into SSIS but couldn't find anything suitable which brings me back to T-SQL. If anyone knows a nice elegant way of doing this and is prepared to share, that would be grand. Thanks for your time, Paul SqlServer 2005 has a new .write extension to the UPDATE s ...Show All

• Visual C++ Is the Components and Controls Gallery gone?

  Hi, I am new to Visual Studio 2005. I couldn't find the handy Components and Controls Gallery, which was available in Visual Studio 6, through Projects -> Add to Project -> Components and Controls. Is it gone If so, how do I accomplish the tasks that I could with the Components and Controls Gallery, like adding an ActiveX control, a popup menu, or a splash screen Thank you all for your attention.

• Windows Search Technologies How remove exclusions after upgrade to v3

  After upgrading to OL 2007, I was 'forced' to upgrade WDS from 2.x and as has been documented I now have less flexibility in choosing what will be indexed. So be it for the moment at least... But some old OL 2003 folders in a local .pst file I chose NOT to be indexed by WDS 2.x are still excluded in 3.x, with no way to edit them ! How can I make changes to this custom exclusion list now I have WDS 3 W The Outlook team, when building in search into their product, decided that only the stores can be indexed or not, and not at individual folder levels. When searching a store, Outlook will either perform a fast search if the store is indexed or a slow search by scanning (grep) every email if it is not i ...Show All

• SQL Server Single to Multi-value parameter passing

  Hello, I am creating a drill through report in which I am selecting a single month from the main report. When I pass this month, I would like the secondary report to select all the preceding months (i.e to set YTD for secondary report) e.g. Primary Report - March selected from the drop-down Secondary Report - Jan, Feb, March should be selected. Any help will be appreciated. FYI - I am using an Analysis cube as my data source Thanks If you want to just display the month/year in the drop-down that is fine, but it is probably easiest to actually store and operate off of a full date from the first report (i.e. 1/1/2006, 2/1/2006, etc.).  This simplifies your filter in the secon ...Show All

• SQL Server Need help on COM-based Custom Conflict Resolver

  Hi everyone, I am working on a COM-based custom conflict resolver (vb.net) for a merge replication problem that I am having. This is what I am trying to accomplish. 1. Have a Last_Upd_Dt column. 2. When there is a conflict between publisher and subscriber on a column, the winner is the most recent date in Last_Upd_Dt and want the value for that column from that source. 3. If there is no conflict on a column and the column was updated by either the publisher or subscriber, I want to keep the change made by the publisher or the subscriber. (i.e publisher made change in col #1, subscriber made change in col #2, no conflict, the resulting row will now have the col #1 value from publisher, col # 2 will have value from subscriber.
