• .NET Development XML Serializer Web service show files and folders

  i am having difficulty in making a web service that show files and folders on the CD in CD Rom , i am trying to return files names and extension but it returns an error which is System.IO.DirectoryInfo cannot be serialized because it does not have a parameterless constructor. I Dont have any idea about serialization Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks WebService (ASMX) use XmlSerialzier to read/write WebMethod parameters and return values, this put restrictions on what types you can use in your web method definition. One of the requirements, imposed by the XmlSerializer design is the presence of the default (parameter less) constructor, so because t he DirectoryInfo does not have the requi ...Show All

• SQL Server SP2 Issue on Analysis Services 2005

  Hi All, We are currently live on AS 2005 with a number of high profile customers. I've just applied SP2 in our development environment and have noticed strange behavior with crossjoin. A lot of our calculations are now returning the following error FORMATTED_VALUE #Error Semiadditive measure Appl Abs Bytes requires Time dimension in the measure group . This example measure is part of a measure group that forms the basis of our user defined settings. It is used as an overriding absolute value instead of an average over a time period. It has no relationship with time and I don't understand why it suggests it should. Also more importantly the aggregationfunction setting for all these user defined setting measures are set to ...Show All

• .NET Development WSDL & SOAP

  Hey all, Hoping someone can point me in the right direction here. Typically when building my soap object, the operation appears as <wsdl:operation name="ccValidateCard" parameterOrder="merchantName ccn expdate maskedCcn cardType returnCode"> <wsdl:input message="impl:ccValidateCardRequest" name="ccValidateCardRequest"/> <wsdl:output message="impl:ccValidateCardResponse" name="ccValidateCardResponse"/> </wsdl:operation> in the WSDL.

• SQL Server 17 inch Height Paper

  I'm trying to fill out a pre printed form which is 8.5in wide by 17 in long. Allowing for margins of 0.5 inches left and right and 0.0 inches top and bottom, I'm within the 8.5x17. Every time I try to print the printing stops around 12 inches and ejects the paper and waits for a new sheet. My printer (Epson LQ-590) prints these forms using an old MSAccess 2.0 app, si I'm sure it's not the printer. I've seen a lot about paper sizes on here but no solutions that work for me, I can't even get it to legal size paper - it always stops printing after about 12 inches. Any clues Thanks Philippe, I'd already used Report Properties > Layout and also changed the dimensions in the Properties window. I di ...Show All

• Community Chat Convert Money value to its Textual Representation

  Code Competition I had answered a post Convert to letter format a number value and provided a response that went counter to the logic of the threads up to that point. The two code examples provided to the poster used enums. I posted with a title Enums make me E-Numb and provided a code sample that use no enumerations. One of the other poster's code sample was .Net but based on a previous process he had written in a non .Net language. He commented that he had run my sample and after 100K operations mine was four second faster. He requested that I add some features to the code and repost so he could retest. I accepted his request and that is what this is...a place to post the code away from the original post so it does not become an OTP fro ...Show All

• SQL Server Simple relative time question...

  Hi Everyone, I'm probably missing something very simple here. Our customer request is to compare sales of the current year vs the sales of the previous year at the same date. Ex.: sales from 1 january 2006 to 10 october 2006 vs sales from 1 january 2005 to 10 october 2005 I added some relative time information in my cube using the time intelligence wizard but it looks like this wizard will only allow me to compare 2006 data vs the whole 2005 year... This would work great if i was to compare sales only on the 31 of december. How can i achieve this user request How does the current date work is it using the system date TIA Hi I think the simplest option is creating YTD metric for sa ...Show All

• Visual Studio Sandcastle and ASP.NET

  When trying to compile help for ASP.NET 2.0 pages (.aspx), the documentation is built for the code behind and the designer files. Since the designer files contain all of the information for each control in the form and is autogenerated, there is no need for this portion of the partial class to be documented in the help system, but the code behind properties and methods need to be fully commented. Is there a way to only have the code behind portion of the partial classes be included I cannot add any exclude tags or anything to the designer file since it is autogenerated and all is lost when it regenerates itself. This would be very helpful for controls (.ascx) files. This is an excellent scenario. I have ...Show All
