• SQL Server SQL Server XE Limitations

  Hi, As SQL Server XE can run on one PC maximum, does it mean that it can't support multi users I mean could it be installed on one server and to be used by multiple users connected to server with their PCs thanks in advance Yes you can use the express edition to develop applications for multi users. You do have to remember though to turn on the remote access for the server as this is turned off by default. For specific questions on SQL Express you should post your messages to the SQL Express group on this site. ...Show All

• SQL Server UDT - Get reference to table

  Hello everyone ! Given a UDT, is there any way to get a reference to the table where the specific instance is running IE: Let's suppose we have defined a UDT named UDTPoint; now we define two tables: ATable & BTable, wich both have one column that is defined as UDTPoint. When an insert/update/delete operation on ATable or BTable occurs, the UDTPoint class needs to verify in which context it is running (ATable or BTable) before doing operations on data. Is there any way to achieve that Thanks Giovanni No, the data type has no idea of the context in which it's being used.  That kind of defeats the purpose of a data type as a common object.  I th ...Show All

• .NET Development Default Credentials not working for Basic Authentication from IIS server to IIS Server

  I have some .NET 2.0 Objects hosted inside of IIS that are accessed via .NET remoting. The Primary Website that the objects are hosted in is part of an application pool that logs on as a specific identity (e..g a Domain User) and the website is configured use Digest Authentication.  The objects on the Primary Website access another set of .NET 2.0 objects via a single remoting uri that points to a network load balance that represents two web servers.  The two Load Balanced web servers are not on a domain and they are configured to use Basic Authentication. My problem is that when the objects on the Primary Website attempt to communicate with the Load Balanced web servers they are not sending username and password infor ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Newby questions

  Hi, digging around with Vista we came (after a lot of success with WPF things) to the point where we think about the WEB. We run a lot of web apps (ASPX). Most of them use Forms Authentication and profiles. Our idea is now to have those site support InfoCard. Before running into a totaly wrong way we try to ask here if our idea is totally stupid or not. The idea: When a user tries to enter a protected area we normaly bring up the .NET 2.0 Login control. This is pretty automatic - the user enters username / PWD and is redirected to the page after login. At the same page we offer a link to register - also using the "normal ASPX features" (Username, Email, PWD, Secret Question.....). On most sites we do an email verif ...Show All

• Visual Basic debug after vb6 migration

  Any advice on issues with debugging a migrated vb6 dll Setup appears correct with an external program defined and starting when debug is started. Breakpoints are set, but never reached. It appears that the application is still referencing the installed (production) version of the dll (still vb6), rather than the debug version (.net). Perhaps registry settings are not being adjusted to support use of the debug version Any suggestions would be appreciated. To remove any doubt, unregister the original component with regsvr32 /u. Make sure you've registered the debug version of the .NET module with regasm. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development How to Deploy Files to a Sub-Directory?

  Hi all, i am testing a WinCE application that i wrote by deploying it in the WinCE emulator. This application uses a number of bitmap (BMP) files, and they are deployed by setting their Build Action as "Content". How can i have the BMP files deployed to a sub-directory instead of the main application directory E.g. My application is deployed to "/Program Files/TestApp/" on the emulator, and all the content files are deployed to that same location. However, as i have quite a large number of bitmap files, i would like to deploy those to a "/Program Files/TestApp/bmp/" instead. i could not find a configuration to specify where to deploy a certain file to.
