• Windows Forms shrinking menu width when rendermode = system

  If you set the rendermode for a menu to anything but system you get the blue vertical strip on the left side running from the top to the bottom. If you set the rendermode to system, it disappears but you still have the entire width where the strip was on the menu. How do you get rid of this margin I don't want the strip but without it it makes the menu too wide and ugly. Well that's not really an option. I need it to disappear. This wasn't the case with VS 2003. I don't know why they had to change it. ...Show All

• SQL Server Tuning Advisor errors

  Hi, the tuning wizard in sql server was a very good help for me. I was hoping to do the same after we installed SQL Server 2005. But the tuning advisor doesn't seem to work! At least not for our database. I have tried several times to create a trace when I run a heavy workload on the database. When I have finished the tuning, I get 0% recommended improvements, I should get plenty and always did before installing 2005. But I also get a Warning - "50 % of consumed workload has syntax errors. Check tuning log for more information." And there are many errors in the tuning log, but I can't see why the advisor complains. Here is one example of an error in the tuning log: E000 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The text ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS + SSAS => Fairly consistent hanging?

  I have an SSIS package that reprocesses part of my cube. I've tested that it works, and deployed it as a SQL Job to run regularly. Strangely, it seems that the SSAS server hangs fairly regularly and when the SSIS job starts to run, it'll be stuck for hours. Is this expected Should I be bumping our SSAS service nightly Are there tools available to monitor SSAS service health Had the same problem recently with SSIS and SSAS. Started when I added unprocessed measure groups to my cube. All of the sudden my SSIS tasks would hang with the "building processing schedule" message, and only one task would go at a time. I processed the all cube measure groups so that the only objects left unprocessed in ...Show All

• .NET Development WinFX and Interop

  Hello everyone! Right i was wondering since WinFX (.Net 3) is part of the Subsystem in Windows Vista if its possible to use the Managed API framework to communicate with other running applications using User32.dll in .net 2.0 i have to use Interop to import the dll and manually managed the code. But since WinFX is a subsystem surely there is already a managed API for User32 or something I cant find anything about the new WinFX features or documentation on the new procedures, namespaces and classes. Does anyone have any links or ideas to some form of documentation or anything of interest Thanks WinFX never included changes to the existing .NET 2.0 framework--it only contains the adjuncts like workflow a ...Show All

• Visual Studio RSClientController is not defined

  I am using a webforms reportviewer in local mode with a dataset. I have confirmed that the filler method of the business object is being called and a filled dataset is being returned. However, when the page renders, the reportviewer is missing the button images, none of the report is displayed and I get a script error of RSCLientController is not defined. I have checked the IIS setting about checking that a file exists and it is not selected. It looks like your site is blocking the request for report viewer scripts and images by redirecting it to your login page.

However, I have set up the server to start when the computer turns on via a windows service (XYNTService, the service I use to start the program). When I start and stop the service manually remoting works fine here to. However when I boot up the computer or restart it the application is running in the background just fine however there is no exposed object this time. I don't know if this is a security issue or a bug but the remoting only fails with a boot/restart of the computer. 1st, what is the relationship between the Service, the single instance exposed, the server and the client ...Show All
