• .NET Development IO.Ports.SerialPort DataReceived EventType=Eof

  I never get an "Eof" EventType fom the SerialDataReceivedEventArgs. When the DataReceived event is raised the EventType is allways "Chars". I played around with the SerialPort.NewLine property but no success. Any ideas why Thanks, Eduardo It was technically possible to get an Eof event in the old days. The DCB structure, used to initialize the serial port, contains an EofChar member that allows one to define a special end-of-file character. Modern Windows operating systems no longer support non-binary transfers so the Eof event will never be raised. Accordingly, the SerialPort class doesn't have a EofChar member, the DCB member always gets initialized to 0x1A (Ctrl+Z). Why MSFT still defines Seria ...Show All

  I'm having difficulty trying to build a dll from source provided by a 3rd party. The source is actually free and can be found at http://librsync.sourceforge.net/ I am trying to build the librsync library in Visual Studio 2005.

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 Standard Ediiton.

  Hi: A friend of mine who works with oracle claims that they could not install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition to a drive other than the C:\ Drive. I know I could with Enterprise Edition and never tried with standard edition. Can any one please confirm that Standard Edition could be installed to a drive other than C:\ drive Thank you AK There is no difference in installation options (as it relates to path location) between Standard and Enterprise. Some files are put in the system drive, but you can checkout the template.ini file for the install path options (I think the parameter is something like INSTALLSQLDIR off the top of my head). Thanks, Sam Lester (MSFT) ...Show All

• SQL Server Question about Database Mirroring and Possibly NLB

  OK since my company really would not prefer to spend the money for Windows 2003 Enterprise and MS SQL 2005 Enterprise I was thinking about this idea... Server1 - W2K3 Std - SQL2005 Std - Primary Server2 - W2K3 Std - SQL2005 Std - Mirror Server3 - W2K3 Std - SQL2005 Std - Witness Server4 - W2K3 Std - SQL2005 Std - Processing OK So we have Server1 & Server2 doing the Database Mirroring. Then I have Server3 as the Witness to say who is the Primary and so forth. Now Server4 I thinking to us to create jobs that will run on a Schedule to pull data from our Ticketing system and import it into Server1 & Server2 (Yes this is a Datawarehouse).. So what I am wondering... We really wish to not have to change our connections to the DB wit ...Show All

• SQL Server SSAS YTD with Multisets

  Hi All, I'm not that well versed with MDX (I'm more of a TSQL guy). I have a simple calculated member as below: AGGREGATE ( PeriodsToDate ( [end_date].[Financial].[FYear] , [end_date].[Financial].CurrentMember ), [Measures].[ActualVolume] ) This works fine if I filter on the year or a single period, however it fails if I try any mltiset selections (for example 2 quartuers). Any help would be appreciated. thanks, Hi, I managed to get this far: SUM ( EXISTING [end_date].[Financial].[FYYYYMM].
