• .NET Development Which validator should I use?

  I have an array that is populated dynamically. It contains integers. I also have a dropdownlist. How do I make sure that the item that users select does not equal to any of the values in the array ie. each item in dropdownlist has value and text, with value containing an integer. I don't want users to pick the item whose value is any of the integer in the array. I tried using the comparevalidator but the valuetocompare is a fixed value, I can't assign it the array. any suggestions I think you should use Custom Validator and inside the client validation function, you have to implement this logic ! Also you didn't point out whether this array is server side or just a client side, however if it's ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Deploy windows users to different servers

  Hi All, I have an issue with deploying a SQL 2000 database project to different servers, each using windows authentication. I have a user against in the database project called "User1". This has to be tied into the login "COMPUTER\User1", where computer will be the name of the server I am deploying the project to. The problem is that creating a user using sp_grantdbaccess requires a login name, but the login name can't be determined till deployment time because the login name will change based on the server name. So I keep getting the error 'User1' is not a valid login or you do not have permission" . Does anyone have a work around for this Other then blogs and this forum are there any good online resources for D ...Show All

  Hi im trying to make a very very basic 3d racing game. Basically, ive spent hours trying to work out how to detect whether my rocket (the car) has left the side of the track or not.

• SQL Server Managing SQL 2000 databases on Vista...

  I have one database at an ISP running on a SQL 2000 server. Under Windows XP Pro, I installed SQL 2000 administrative tools then I could use the database manager as well as the query tool to manage my database. I have upgraded my machine to Windows Vista Ultimate. SQL 2000 client services won't install under Windows Vista. Under Windows Vista, I was able to create an ODBC component that connected successfully to the SQL 2000 remote database, but I no longer have a transaction tool or a gui to manage the tables. My goals are simple: I want to be able to view/add/drop tables and data using some sort of GUI. I would also like to have some sort of SQL transaction client. I don't need to do any high level database management, just view/change/ ...Show All

• Visual Basic How To Open A File On Another Computer

  Thanks for the help. Obviously I'm new at using files. Yes, I'm using VB6. New Question: I'm using: Open "Path" For Random Access Read Write As #1 Len=Len(Type) I'm doing this with both computers on my home network. Both Computers are running the same program. Both Programs are accessing the same file. My question is this: Does the system resolve conflicts if both programs attempt to write the same record simultaneouly Because right now, using the Open statement above and no lock statement later in my code, it seems a conflict could arise. I'm not able to lock the file using one program and then trap the error in the other program because the errors received do not appear to be trappable. For example I lock ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Sorting a ListBox of strings

  Hey, This really should be incredibly easy to do but all I can find is huge explanations of how to use CollectionViews, Observable whatnots, SortDescriptions etc. In code, I want to be able to add ["Cat", "Dog", "Ant", "Bat"] to a ListBox, then be able to sort them... I've looked at SortDescriptions but have no idea what the first argument needs to be. Exceptions are thrown when i try things like "Content", "Name", "Text"... what properties to simple strings have I really do want to avoid XAML for this bit as it isn't ideal, code, a couple of lines...

• SQL Server Passing multiple-values as a parameter

  I am trying to drill through to a secondary report passing multiple values as a parameter. For eg. I would like the user to select multiple years (2005,2006) from the drop-down parameter and pass that on to a secondary report. When I select multiple values and pass that as a parameter, the parameter in the second report defaults to 'All' or in some case the first of the multiple parameters (i.e only 2005 is passed). I don't have any problems passing single valued parameters. Any help would be appreciated. FYI - I am using an Analysis Cube as the data source for the report. Thanks You can do this by using the Split function, search this forum there are plenty of examples of how to use it. ...Show All
