• SQL Server Management Studio Express - error when attempting to run a query

  Hi, I have installed Visual Studio 2005 on my PC, and SQL Server 2005 Express was also installed. I decided to install the Management Studio Express, and the installation completed without any error messages. I created the ASPNET account after having installed the Northwind database on my PC, and I have created a test web site (ASP.NET) that creates a SqlConnection, and retrieves some data from the Products table in the Northwind database. The query returns the results i ask for, so that means that the accound has been set up properly. My problem appears when I try to run queries using the Management Studio Express. I have managed to add the sql server, and I can browse this in the object explorer, getting a listing of all the tab ...Show All

• SQL Server Which Server

  Hi Guys, I'm a beginner with Access and I set up a small database for a local charity project with a backend, front-end over a network drive. The database works well except that when too many people have the database open (there could be up to 6) at the same time it runs very slow. Someone said to me that if I put the tables on a server on one of the computers then it would improve the speed of the database but I would still like to keep the front-end as Access. Can anyone tell me if this approach would be a solution to my problem and if so which server would suit my needs, remembering that money is an issue Hi Lars, By default, SQL Server Express Edition installs with local connectivity only. ...Show All

• Visual C++ ListView /TreeView do not draw themselfes after CreateWindow

  i have a problem with the Tree/List-View Windowclasses. after creating a button, editbox or combobox the controls are painted immediately after the CreateWindow-command. with the above mentioned controls it is different. After CreateWindow-command for the Treeview there is only a "hole" in my parent window which comes from the CLIPCHILDREN-style that i use in the parent window i suppose, but the TreeView/ListView-control is not painted. the control is first painted after i drag the window off the screen and back on the screen for example to force a WM_PAINT-message to be sent form windows. Sending a WM_PAINT message explicitly after CreateWindow has no effect either. what is different with these controls here is the createwindow ...Show All

• Windows Forms Windows Installer Automation

  I'm trying to create an application that is able to heal or install as needed (for example: Office 2003 when installing on demand) using MSI automation. Where can I find information on using MSI.DLL automation in Visual Basic (not the C++ stuff in the MSDN Library) My program has a bunch of wizards that are all seperate EXEs that aren't needed all the time. for example, in MS Word (when set to advertise), the spell checker will be installed when you hit F7. I think I figured it out though using VB/VBA Develoers Guide to Windows Installer (available for free: http://www.larkware.com/Articles/TheDailyGrind305.html ) by reading Chapter 9 (although the book targets Visual Basic 6.0 and Windows Installer 1.1, I tried to adapt the code to ...Show All
