That's correct. The full product includes 6 seperate components, one of which is the graphical (and command line) client tools to connect to a SQL Server machine/DB. They're a must if you haven't spent much time with SQL. :) Thanks, Sam ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Add-Ins and Stored Procedures ?

  I am trying to use an Add-In to query a SQLServer database via stored procedure. My code works fine in my Windows Forms test application but throws a system exception when run in the Add-In.

• Visual Basic Problem saving graphics to a file

  Hi, I have an application in which the PaintEvent calls up a procedure to get data from four Sql tables, and produce drawings. This part of the app works fine. I am now trying to copy these drawing one at a time to a Bitmap file, and not having much success. I've omitted the the Sql statement sections in the following code as they are not the problem. Private curFileName As String Private curImage As Image Dim ImageNo As Int32 = 0 ' This procedure adds the drawings ands text to the appropriate rectangle.

• Visual Basic Databases and Textboxes

  Part A How do I link textboxes to individual database records when the database has say fifty rows and fifty columns.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Architectural Help

  Hi everyone, Looking at using WF for a project I'm working on. Been working through tutorials and have the books but don't think the way I'd like to do this will be as easy as I'd thought. Basically I need the app to be asp.net, web based. The workflows will need to be user owned. Only one user can work on the workflow for it's life span. The vast majority of the workflow can progress without user intervention but there are some key stages that require data confirmation and decisions. Would this imply a state machine or a sequential workflow waiting on external events (the way I currently have it). From what I've read the hosting will need to be done centrally, i.e. a win service, in my case. At present I have it hosted in a console app (f ...Show All

• Visual Studio Cannot Debug in VS2005

  I cannot launch the debugger in VS2005. I have a solution with numerous projects (1 C#, the rest VB). Whenever I run the solution and hit a break point, I get a message saying that Visual Studio has encountered an internal error. I have sent multiple error reports to Microsoft about this. This also happens when I just try and single step into the solution. Everything in the solutions builds fine and runs fine, until I try and use the debugger. I am running Windows XP (SP2) with a dual-core processor. I read some posts online that recommend setting up your startpage and I did that. I also set the project to run on x86 CPU and I am still having the same issue. Another developer in my environment can debug the exact same solution and the prim ...Show All

• SQL Server Storing query results in SQL table

  Hey guys/girls, I was wondering if there is a way to store the report query results into a SQL database for use within an application. I would like to have the query information used in the report updated to a SQL table for later use. The other catch would be to deploy the information to a separate datasource location than the report is using (because the information will be stored in a different location than where the report is gathering information. Thanks! BJ If its on a separate installation you will have to create a linked server. Then you can simply use the following syntax to insert data: INSERT INTO LinkedServerName.DatabaseName.ObjectOwnerORSchema.ObjectName SELECT (...) More about creat ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Intercepting Save related commands in Word 2003

  Hello, does anyone know if it is possible to intercept Word's Save and SaveAS commands  using VSTO (VBA allowes it) Interception should work for all documents so that I can apply custom operations to each document before it is saved. Standart event handlers work only for a particular document or template. Once they are closed events are not fired for other documents. Substitution of Normal.dot hasn't worked because Word doesn't execute managed code refered by substituted template at least by default (why and could this behaviour be changed ). -- Thanks in advance.             This can't be done for ALL documents using VSTO ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TF53010 / TF14055 error

  I upgraded our TFS environment from RC1 to RTM last week and have to say that it went extremely smoothly. The entire upgrade (Dual Tier environment) took around 1.5 hours. Much nicer than my B3R to RC1 experience :) I did run into a few "glitches" that I've been working through. Two seem to have been preexisting issues, another was apparently a change in a developer's directory structure that I had to "help" troubleshoot. The final hurdle I'm trying to overcome appears to be some kind of authentication issue. Here's a sample of what I'm seeing in the event log on the AT machine (names changed to protect the innocent ) Event Type: Warning Event Source: TFS Version Control Event Category: None Event ID: 6008 Da ...Show All
