• SQL Server The process cannot access the file it is being used by another process.

  I have a File System Task Copy file operation to copy a file in an SSIS package. The package when scheduled as a job fails with the following error: The process cannot access the file 'C:\ETL\Consignment\Apple\AppleRawFile.txt' because it is being used by another process.". However when I right click on the package and execute it manually from the Integration Services it runs successfully without any problem. I am not certain on how to resolve this issue any inputs will be much appreciated. Thanks, Monisha Based on the lack of response, I guess this must be a stumper and needs to be addressed with Microsoft support. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Leftover pixels From DrawReversibleLine

  I am creating a drawing program...  When I draw a line I am capturing the mouse, and drawing a reversible line, which I store and redraw (to erase the line) if the mouse moves to another point.  The last line will be the the one I capture on mouse up. This works, except there are a few remaining jagged edges created during the process.  They all disappear after mouse up, but they are anoying anyway. Does anyone know how to fix this   When I have done this in the past against the Win32 API, it was very clean, and I am looking for that cleanliness. Do I have to use the API calls Thanks, Bob Thanks, I'll look into it. And it still might be a bug. It really helped to talk ...Show All

• .NET Development C# - What is the Big Whoop?

  Hello, Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question. I have been directed here from the question asking interface in Visual Studio 2005, under the Help menu. Recently, a headhunter told me .Net, especially C#, is all the rage. I don't understand why this is the case. My perception is most development these days is going to aim for a browser-based (i.e., 'web') interface for end users. That makes me think the most popular uses of Visual Studio 2005 would be for building ASP.Net data access applications, which points toward Visual Basic.Net, not C#, at least in my confused mind. Do I have this all mixed up If you are working with C#, could you write a few words about what you are using it for This would be extremely helpf ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Can't open regedit

  Hai.... Why if I want open regedit (run>regedit), and then show message error like that The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005) Please anybody help me... Jebat Thanks Your SP2 installation should take prescedence over anything else, but since it is not, here is what I would do. If you can only get the SP2 to install it sould overwrite all that other stuff. I would not just simply delete the NT regedit or anything until you try this simple solution first. XP Pro has a built-in program for such incidences. It's called program compatibility (wizard). You will have to hunt it. it might be under accessories then under systems tools.

• .NET Development I cannot acces the choosen properties from new component

  LS, I'm using VS 2005 C#. I created a new component that inherits form textbox. I added a Label to this textbox. private Label tBLabel; [Description("Label above Textbox.")] public Label TBLabel { get { return tBLabel; } set { tBLabel = value; } } private void InitializeTB() { tBLabel = new Label(); } I can use my new component.
