• SQL Server DTS Package

  I have created a DTS package that connects to the database fills a temp table with data based on my sql statement, generates a text file with the data in the temp table, and after the file is generated the temp table to truncated. The package has been added as a job to run daily, but the problem is sometimes the job will not generate data in the text file. I get an email with the file attached as soon as the job ends, and if i see that no data is in the file I run the package manually, and for what ever reason the file will then have data. Can someone tell me why the job will sometimes pull data, and sometimes not. But manualy running it will always pull data. Thanks in adavance for helping!! ...Show All

• Visual C# foreach without Type

  Hello, I have a collection and I want to iterate all elements in it. Example: string [] arr = new string [] { "A" , "B" , "C" }; foreach ( string s in arr) Console .WriteLine(s); in the example the element type is string, because the collection is array of strings. is there a way to do the same as foreach does, but without declaring the type. something like: foreach ( s in arr) Console .WriteLine(s); some how make the compiler know that the type is the collection's element type. Thanks. yes, I've heard something about the var stuff. Currently my application is deployed with .net framework 2.00, and it is not going to change for a while about object - ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Windows Cardspace Control Panel applet crashes (RTM)

  I have several development machines that I have been unable to get the RTM version of .NET 3.0 working on properly. Even after completely uninstalling the various pre-release CTP cardspace / infocard packages, if I make any changes (add / edit / delete a card), the applet crashes with an uncaught exception. Attempting to debug it in VS isn't much more helpful -- I get this error: System.ExecutionEngineException was unhandled Message: An unhandled exception of type 'System.ExecutionEngineException' occurred in System.IdentityModel.Selectors.dll Is there some way to remove whatever Registry / files / settings / etc. are causing cardspace to crash This seems to be system-level as it occurs even with a newly created user account. ...Show All

• SQL Server Allow reference to dynamically-created DataColumn from report--Help?

  Hi everyone, I currently have a strongly-typed dataset that, in code, will expand tables according to relationships in that dataset in order to bind it to my ReportViewer. My problem now is whenever I try to run it, I get an error looking like the following: An error occurred during local report processing. The definition of the report 'Main Report' is invalid. The Value expression for the textbox `textbox15` refers to the field `Parent_FullName`. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data scope. The reason I'm dynamically creating this dataset on the fly is because I couldn't find how to do a one-to-one relationship (bind a column in one report ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with Event-based Asynchronous Pattern sample code - form Not Responding

  Hi, The sample code at: ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.MSDN.v80/MS.VisualStudio.v80.en/dv_fxadvance/html/3c1aa4d4-da87-4a03-b812-3d167b8c57cf.htm that uses prime calculation to demonstrate the asynch pattern, appears to have a problem. Not sure where the problem lies - don't think it's in the asynch pattern. It may be the ListView. - in the PrimeNumberCalculatorMain form's InitializeComponent method change the buttonPanel to dockBottom and the ListView to dockFill, so that resizing the form resizes the ListView. - Run the app and start many threads (the more running the easier to lock the app) - resize the form up/down while the threads are running. Eventually the form will lock. Some time later the title bar will display N ...Show All

• Visual Basic Compiler Error after Service Pack 2

  Hi I have read that this is a problem for others Microsoft has said that we need to contact their support for a fix.

• Visual C# Why ImageList can not dispose the image it contains?

  It's strange that ImageList can not dispose the image it contains, when I invoke imagelist's dispose method. private void Form1_Load( object sender, EventArgs e) { ImageList images = new ImageList (); Image image = Image .FromFile( @"xxx\bookmark.png" ); images.Images.Add(image); images.Dispose(); this .pictureBox1.Image = images.Images[0]; } I have invoked imagelist's Dispose method, but the picturebox can still show the image in imagelist. Why ImageList _copies_ the image, it does not own a reference to the original image. If you want the original image to be disposed, dispose of it yourself. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Syntax error when using Online MSDN

  Hi, I have a problem with the Visual Studio 2005 help. Every page that loads i get a "line 1 syntax error" message box. It is DRIVING ME INSANE! I have tried to repair of the Document Explorer tool. I have looked for updates or KB articles and i can't find anything. I have tried turning off IE debugging but just the shape of the message box changes (and it doesn't ask me to debug), and the syntax error moves to line 2. A sample source for the page starts with XML so i thought that might be the cause but I am running the latest updates. Has anyone else had this problem Thanks in advance for any tips, Nathan Hi!

• .NET Development sql injection :: filtering datagridview

  I use a textbox to filter my datagridview's binding source on keydown. I'm facing problems if the user enters apostrophes and other undesirable characters into the textbox. "Fred's furnace" is a data item that is available in the datagridview. But when I enter "Fred ' s" in the textbox search it causes an exception. Please can someone point me to a how-to in this case of avoiding sql injection. Thanks in advance.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Replace text in XPS documents

  I'm trying to replace text in XPS documents and I've got nowhere. What we're trying to do is replace our old word templates that have bookmarks as placeholders; we use vb6 to replace the text where the bookmarks are. This is so users can create generic documents and merge them with our data from our database. We want to replace this as honestly the current solution isn't that good, but does work, so it's not all bad. I've created an XPS document with bookmarks, can't seem to figure out what makes a bookmark a bookmark in XPS. But really all we would need would be a placeholder like <Address> or <Name> or something and then replace that text with data. Can anyone help or at least point me in the right directi ...Show All
