• SQL Server Cannot open backup device 'F:\foldername'. Operating system error 5(Access is denied.).

• SQL Server Comparing Table Records

  Hi everyone, I’m looking for any recommendations or ideas for achieving a task I am currently doing in a much more efficient way or form. I am currently running a process that takes data in an Excel Worksheet and populates a SQL Table. Each record within that SQL Table is then read by another system to perform workflow related tasks. The problem I am having is reading each SQL record all the time, looking for delta changes. As you can imagine, this can be pretty time consuming if each record contains many column values with thousands of records in the DB. I’m using a DTS Package to transform the data from Excel to SQL. The package is extremely dumb, in a sense all it does before doing a bulk import is running a “TRUNCATE T ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies WebPart Sample

  I am new to MOSS 2007 and webparts development. Does anyone have a sample webpart code developed in VS2005 for MOSS 2007 that renders actual controls(textbox/dropdown for input and command buttons) The sample web part articles out there just do simple writer.Write(). They are not really practical examples to build off. A website reference will be fine was well. Thanks in advance. NJITDPM wrote: I am new to MOSS 2007 and webparts development.

• Commerce Server Controls\ProductList.ascx

  I have added new columns to the data grid and am now adding new Template Fields to the code behind the page. My question is how do I reference a field I added to the ProductDefinition (so a custom field). All of the code snippets I tried don't seem to work. 1. Container.DataItem["xxyfield"] 2. (CatalogItem)Container.DataItem["xxyfield"] 3. ((CatalogItem)Container.DataItem)["xxyfield"] I also tried creating a function and used item["xxyfield"] Please Advise. This still does not appear to be working. If have pasted my code sample in. The field that I am looking to retrieve is Category which I have added to the Product Definition. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Adding pages to document based on the same template

  Hello I have a simple single page template for a letter that I fill out using a simple C# application. But how do I make multiple pages of that template in the same document, eg. adding pages to a "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document" document for each recipient. The letters will never be more than a page long. What I'm trying to accomplish is beeing able to make severel letters from one template and then Print them out in one go. How is this possible I guess this solution is not possible because the number of generated letters from the template is unknown. The solution i've found (i know it is not a "clean" solution) is to save the generated letter in a file, and then use the Inse ...Show All

• SQL Server Create vb.net user login form

  Hi all, I made a Windows forms app using vb.net (VS2005) and SQL server 2005 Express Edition (to which I'm new). During the creation of the app I used windows authentication in the connection string. Now I want to secure the app, meaning I want the SQL Server database not to be accessed without a username/password. I guess the logical thing is to create a login form, providing the username and password so it can be used for connecting to the database. I thought this would be a standard (thus easy) thing to do, but no forum or article yet showed me a way to accomplish this in an understandable way. I also want to deploy this app using click once technology. I need to distribute this app on a cd/dvd. If possible, can anyone give me a s ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Check Constraints ignored by the data generator

  I am using VSDBPro to generate test data, my table has a check constraint defined in a column such as ( [Field1] = 'A' OR [Field1] = 'C' ), but it was ignored by the data generator and tried to populate some random values and terminated the entire process... Any workaround for that.... Does the Char column has a Unique constraint or is it a primary key If yes, then you should not find Regex Generator for that column, since Regex Generator doesn't support unique value generation for right now. Otherwise, you should be able to find Regular Expresssion generator in the dropdown list under Generator for that char column in Column Details window. Please let me know if you can find it. ...Show All

• .NET Development How to sign an assembly that is already compiled?

  I am building an application in 1.1, and all the assemblies in my application are strongly named. I want to reference an external assembly that is not strongly named/signed from one of my strongly named assemblies. The build in VS fails because strongly named assembly cannot reference weakly named assemblies. I do not have the source code for the weakly named assembly. What are my options Can I sign the weakly-named assembly using any tool so that it can have a strong name. Thanks. I remember this problem bitting me as well :) You can try ILMerge tool (you can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx familyid=22914587-b4ad-4eae-87cf-b14ae6a939b0&displaylang=en ).

• SQL Server Access SSAS 2005 Data from Java

  I have a C# ASP.NET 2.0 application that is using ADOMD to access my cube data in SSAS and it works very well. I have another project in Java and would like to integrate SSAS cube data. Is this possible I know Microsoft makes SQL Server drivers for Java. Is there anything like ADOMD for Java If not, is there a OLAP type tool that is similar to SSAS that is Java friendly I know Java and Microsoft are usually competing and incompatible technologies. Please don't tell me to switch or turn this into a political thread. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

• .NET Development WEB service parameters styles

  Hello. I am implementing a client for a Web service defined on the JAVA server (JBoss AS). They tried to define a style for methods parameters as 'rpc' which meaning that parameters appear in the WSDL as they are defined on the server and .NET test application had problems when the number of parameters was greater than 1. Then they moved to 'document' style which forced WSDL to envelop a list of methods parameters into a structure and pass this structure as parameter. It is very inconvenient because the name of the structure is defined as a name of the method and there are other confusing elements in this solution. Can you provide any information about limitation or constraints on the list of parameters in WSDL generated by JAVA Can ...Show All
