• SQL Server performance differnce between 3027 and 3033

  Hi, I have found major differnces in performance between the two versions - specially with queries that should be answerd from cache if i execute multiple times... Test Query - after the first execute it tooks 1 second with 9.0.3027 and 12 seconds at 9.0.3033. Is this a bug in the last ctp - does this change back in the released SP2 or is the something bad in my models for the latest version we used two equal machines - processed the db on 9.0.3033 and restored the backup on 9.0.3027 query looks like select {[4WochenSet]* [Zeit].[Tag].[Tag]. Members } on axis (0), Descendants ([Immobilien].[Geographie].[Bundesland].&[Wien]&[AUT], [Immobilien].[Geographie].[PLZ], SELF ) on axis (1) from Ang ...Show All

  It was announced here http://bloggingabout.net/blogs/erwyn/archive/2006/05/11/12167.aspx and then within a few days, the documentation was so completely removed from MSDN ...it was like it never existed.

• Visual C# Trapping Cancel event in Word SpellCheck

  I am using the Word SpellChecker feature into a C# application (not that the language matters). The problem is that I do not know of a way to tell if the user canceled the SpellCheck process or not (by clicking on the Cancel button). The word function has no returned value that I can tell and it seems that the event cannot be trapped either. Does anyone one know how I can get this issue accomplished ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DLLs on the XBOX 360

  I don't know if this was posted elsewhere on the forum as the search function keeps giving me errors. Is it possible to construct a DLL in C# and then deploy that to the 360 This would be very useful, especially for those like myself who are making an engine that can be used for a variety of projects. Yes, you can do this by creating an "Xbox 360 Game Library" project. Its output will be a DLL that works on the Xbox 360. You can then either reference that project or the built class library from any other "Xbox 360 Game" project. --Stephen ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGrids

  I was wondering.. If anyone can show me a really really simple example of datagrids with maybe just one row of a random information... I have a load of tuts.. but I cant find the right one to start with. The datatable has a dynamic capacity; it expands as and when it needs to. As far as I know, you cannot directly adjust the number of rows and columns (other than by adding and removing). ...Show All

• Visual C# C# and VB.NET, which can be learned faster?

  Could anybody help let me know which language I should begin with C# or VB.NET Same here, programming VB4-VB6 and then moved to C#. I just see some perfect example how tipical VB developer working in VS .NET environment would solve a problem. http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1046394&SiteID=1 Check the second post. I think that 99% of VB.NET projects has reference to Microsoft.VisualBasic reference. So is this kind of projects are .NET projects, I don't think so. Of course this reference can be used in C#, but to think on such idea is less possible than when working in C#. This bagage of VB is really havy and i don't want to take it. ...Show All

• Visual Studio How do I set up web access?

  Hi, I'm a VSS newbie at best but had this thing dumped on me. Actually, I never used it up until today. I was asked to configure VSS so that an outside developer could have access remotely. We do not currently have a VPN so I'm trying to enable SourceSafe Internet. I go to server--> server configuration and enable SourceSafe Internet for this computer. I then enable Source Safe Internet for this Database and give it a path server\share name. I get an error message of "please re-open the database in SSAdmin using its shared path" I'm rather certain I am using the correct path. Is there any walk through for configuring this How do I know its actually configured IIS is already running on the box so does it dump some stuff in t ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Binding to static property

  Hi! I use for my data layer the provider model introduced with asp.net 2.0. I have two questions: Is it good to use this model with wpf applications too Is there a better model for data access My goal is to use the share the same data layer with both window applications and asp.net applications. If is it right to adopt the provider model, how could I bind to a method or property of a static class I usualy have a DataManager class which supplies Providers. Conceptually, this is my data model: public static class DataManager { private static OrdersProvider _orders; private static UsersProvider _users; private static void Initialize() { // Providers initialization } public stati ...Show All

• SQL Server Difficult T-SQL query (for me anyways)

  Hi. I am developing for a system that receives an input from an external modem. The Transaction is split into 2 sections, Section 1 = grants the transaction ID, Section 2 = deliver the transaction Data. I have 2 corresponding tables, One called tblremoteunitrequestID (Where the transaction ID is granted) The other called tblremoteunitrequests (Where the transaction is completed, about 1 second later) I am writing a diagnostic report that determines if the first part of the transaction completes but the second part fails. I am having difficulties designing the SQL for this. Here is some sample data for tblremoteunitrequestID : (The first stage of the transaction) RecordDate | Serial 13/11/2006 14:00:36 0 ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) WPF/E and multithreading ?

  Hello, can you tell me to wich extend the upcoming CLR integration is going to support multithreading As you always ask for scenarios, here’s mine: I would need that for asynchronous loading of data and media from different places on the net, asynchronously processing it and collecting, combining, formatting and presenting the results to the user. antonio Thanks for the feedback (and scenario!) We are still working through what features will be included in any CLR support. Using JavaScript and http requests (atlas/ajax) will enable you to make async requests and get back XAML/XML (or JSON) which you can then process. Would this work for you thanks, -mark Program Manager Microsoft This post is provide ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridViewImageCell and Default Error Image

  Hello, I have A DataGridView, which has a DataGridViewImageColumn. On design time, I set the image that I'm going to use for that column, but on runtime and based on some business rules, some rows are going to display the image and some are not. The problem is that in the ones that should not display the image, I just need, basically, to display nothing. But each time I try to change the value of the cell to null or to something else (using the OnCellFormatting event), the grid will display the default error image, and that's just what I don't need. I've tried to set a default icon, but the Paint() method will ignore it. Any thoughts By default the image column and cell convert null values to the standard "X" im ...Show All
