SQL Server Export to PDF has extra page???
Hello, When I export to PDF or Tiff, I am getting an extra blank page at the bottom of the document. Any ideas what might be causing this blank page during my export BTW...SSRS 2005 SP1 TIA!!!! Yes, I believe I see the problem now... By default, a new report will display a designer pane with a 6.5x2 size. You can't fit a heck of a lot on this pane, so you immediately increase the size by dragging the pane out beyone the 6.5 range. Well with the default 1 inch margins on each side, when this goes to render in PDF, you see an extra "blank" page. In order to get around it you can keep the designer with all the default settings, or you can change the margins and adjust the designer width/height to fit your needs. ...Show All
Windows Forms DataGridView and ColumnDividerDoubleClick
Heya All, Daft question regarding the datagridview maybe someone has a solution to. I need both events for: Private Sub dtgCurrentYear_ColumnDividerDoubleClick( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewColumnDividerDoubleClickEventArgs) Handles dtgCurrentYear.ColumnDividerDoubleClick MsgBox( "ColumnDividerDoubleClick" ) End Sub Private Sub dtgCurrentYear_CellDoubleClick( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles dtgCurrentYear.CellDoubleClick MsgBox( "CellDoubleClick" ) End Sub Which in THEORY should only be fired when: a) the column divider is double ...Show All
Visual Basic Calling an exe multiple times
I have to develop an application where I need to generate PDF from HTML. I am using ABCPdf component for the same. Now I am giving my users a web interface where they can select the HTML documents (lets say HTML1.html,HTML2.html,HTML3.html ...so on) and then the PDF gets created by invoking an exe which does all the work in the background. Now i want a scalable and robust solution to accomplish this task as my users can be any number and there can be n numbers of html documents to be converted to pdf. For example my user1 schedules 20 HTML files to convert to PDF like wise my user2 also schedules his 20 html files to be converted to PDF and there is no limit to the number of users. and so on .. so if I develop an exe to do the task ...Show All
Visual Studio Express Editions Displaying Double DataType Numbers into DataGridView
Hello VB Gurus, I encounter such problem in my datagrid view. It won't allow me to display the whole real number values (i.e, 12.645) it will only give me a value of 13.

Please help me find any possible solution. thanks Sure you can select the column and modify the DefaultCellStyle property to format the text in whatever way you want. You can change format, colors, alignment and a host of other things. ...Show All
SQL Server What is SQLDumper.exe doing ?
In the task manager, we only have 2 processes with username "sql_ssas_srv", and these are msmdsrv.exe and SqlDumper.exe This tells me that SqlDumper.exe is related to SSAS. SQLDumper.exe appears for a fraction of a second at a time, every couple of seconds. What is this process doing This is not a good thing to see SQLDumper.EXE. It means the Analysis Services process is crashing and creating a dumpfile. You should see a file for each time SQLDumper ran or in reality when AS crashed, it will be located in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.2\OLAP\Log folder. I may be wrong on the location. This actually is a very useful tool for support to determine what is happening t ...Show All
Visual Studio Team System "Missing file" link error with TFS build
Hi, We are trying to build automatically one VS 2005 solution containing various VC++ project (one exe and several dlls). This solution and its projects make use of custom configuration (this help us to define various preprocessor #defines used in our C++ code). When building this solution with one configuration through via VS 2005 on a desktop computer, everything builds fine. But after creating a TFS build type and running it on the build server we see this error: LINK(0,0): error LNK1104: cannot open file 'D:\Build\RootFolder\TFSProjectName\BuildTypeName\Binaries\PlatformName\ConfigurationName\DesignerLocale.lib' (D:\Build\RootFolder being our build directory path) It is strange that TFS build look for lib files in the 'D:\Buil ...Show All
Windows Forms strange behavior after using “Configure Dataset with Wizard”
I’ve been having strange behavior with a Windows Forms project after using the “Configure Dataset with Wizard” in the Data Sources tab in VS2005. It’s hard to describe the problem because the resulting behavior of the environment is inconsistent. Sometimes recompiling fixes it. Sometimes I have to restart the IDE. Once after running it the dataset was updated and could be found in the Solution Explorer but the revised datasource was completely missing. There are a lot of other weird things that would take a lot of typing to describe, but I’ll save that for later if necessary. I’m thinking my project or solution may be corrupt, and that starting a new solution and project from scratch might make the problems go aw ...Show All
Visual C++ Overriding FindResource() and LoadResource()
I would like to override the Win32 APIs FindResource() and LoadResource() in my C++/MFC app, such that all calls to those APIs (including those buried in MFC) call my versions, and my versions can if they desire pass the call on to the standard versions. The only possible way I can think of doing this is to implement these APIs in my own dll, ensure the .lib for my dll is in the library search path ahead of kernel32.lib (where the standard implementations of these APIs live) and then when I want to call the standard implementations explicitly use LoadLibrary("kernel32.dll") and GetProcAddress(...) to get a pointer to the function. I'd rather not have to supply an extra dll just for this. Is there a better way Mike ...Show All
Windows Forms Calling a separate function immediate upon loading the main form.
Dear All, I have main form where I do all my loading of my data like filling up the combo and grid. So I want a function where upon loading and show all my grid and combo frm1_Load method to call a separate function to do some task. The problem now I am having the function call as my last line in my frm1_Load function but is then delaying the viewing of my form. So how can I avoid this delay and allow the form to appear first. Pretty easy: protected override void OnShown( EventArgs e) { base .OnShown(e); } ...Show All
SQL Server Data disappearing during Run time

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Out of video memory when I have plenty (128Mb)
I've had several computers fail to create the DirectX device in full screen mode because of an "out of video memory" error. In two cases, the cards have 128Mb, and I'm sure it's not using even close to that much video memory (front buffer + 2 back buffers = 3*1440*900*4 = 14.8Mb (not even close to 128Mb). On one computer, I was able to solve the problem by lowering the DirectX quality settings from the control panel. On the other computer, that didn't solve the problem. I'm sure my program isn't requesting high quality settings (MultiSample = none, MultiSampleQuality = 0). Does anyone have any idea of why this would happen, or what I can do to fix the problem Thank you, Jeremy DirectX error me ...Show All
