• Visual Studio Custom Tag: <Overloads>

  Is the <Overloads> tag functional in the November CTP How should be used Regards Okay, I didn't understand that you were using external comments.  That aside, I believe it is working as expected and that you are just misunderstanding how it works.  <overloads> is just putting a message on the root node page.  It isn't altering how the items are grouped or how they are listed on the type's member list page.  In there, they will still be listed individually.  To change that behaviour would probably require reworking the XSL transform that generates the member list for a type.

• .NET Development Updating dBase tables

  How to update dBase (.dbf) tables I can read them with Odbc or OleDB but CommandBuilder can't create UPD, INS and DEL command based on 'SELECT * FROM dbf_table_name'. Exception is: "Dynamic SQL generation for the UpdateCommand is not supported against a SelectCommand that does not return any key column information." Yes, with PK column I can update but in most cases I don't have PK col or don't know where is it. How MS_Access change dbf files when I link them There must be some way. Please ignore this post.

• SQL Server SSIS refresh fails

  When I use the OLB data source (SQL SERVER 2005), select * from tableA, then use several steps and then Union ALL and Fuzzy Match, the process works fine. When I change the data source SQL to include two tables with a cross join, the new fields in Table B do not appear in the Union ALL or Fuzzy Match steps but do appear in all steps prior. The advanced editor refresh does not fix the problem. Deleting and recreating the Union ALL shows the Table A and Table B fields. Fuzzy Match is still incorrect. Deleting and recreating Fuzzy Match fixes it. Thanks for the help. I'll read in the Wrox book. There seem to be more issues with refresh not picking up the metadata or I'm using it wrong. When I create d ...Show All

• SQL Server How to run SQL Server Exp 2005

  Dear friends I have installed SQL Server Express Edition (55 mb). Program >> Start >> MS SQL Server 2005 >> Configuration Tool ... this is what being displayed.

• SQL Server How to import word documents into SQL Server

  Hi All, I need to import multiple word documents of same structure into SQL Server table. Could anyone suggest the way of doing this Thanks, Hemal Shah wrote: I mean i want to extract information from word documents into sql server tables. I'm not sure really. This isn't a common request seeing as Word documents are not structured files. The normal answer to extracting unstructured data using SSIS is that you're going to have to use code. You can download Primary Interop Assemblies for Office that enable you to interact with Word documents using dotnet code - hence you can use them in a script task/component. -Jamie ...Show All

• Commerce Server Displaying Discounts for Product

  Hi, I'm trying to figure out a way of displaying the discounts that apply to a product on the Product Page of our site. I don't seem to be able to find a direct way of doing it so I have created a couple of triggers on the CampaignItem & Expression tables and I'm in the process of writing a Windows Service to pick up the changes logged by the triggers and write them out to a "Promotion_Product" table where the relationships will be cached. This should give me a fairly efficient way of checking the product_discount & discount_product relationships. My problem is that I can't see a straighforward way of converting the xml expression body into a sql where clause. If I could use the xml expression in a catalog search ...Show All

• Visual C# How to raise an event

  I have two forms form1 and form2, when i click a button in form2 I want form1 to do something only if a button in form2 is clicked....How do i set up basics for an event to take place in this manner any help... No event is needed in what you are trying to achieve. Create some public property or function on the form which has to work. On the other form's constructor, pass the reference of first form so it can call that function or property. Handle the Click event of the button on this form and call the othe form's function like this: mainForm.DoWork(); Cheers ;-) ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. BasicEffect Class Acting Odd?

  When I use my own HLSL shader to handle VertexPositionNormalTextured data. My textured quad appears perfect on the screen with no irregularities. But when I try to use the BasicEffect class to handle texturing etc. The texture looks as though it has went through some sort of filter or something. Here is an example image of what is going on. If you zoom in you can see the blurring on the edges and for some reason the white block in the left corner is being partially brought over to the top right My first guess is there is some property in BasicEffect I am missing, but I skimmed through it looking for anything that may do this and found nothing. The BasicEffect shader doesn't do anything fancy with the texture lookup, just a regular ...Show All
