• Visual Studio Problem with size of CR on deployment machine

  Hello guys, I have a problem with page size in Crystal Report when I run my application on deployment machine. The problem is that only part of report page can be seen, and the number of pages is significantly increased (which indicates that all data are there but something wrong with page size). This is windows application (Win XP SP2 is installed on deployment machine). I use Crystal Report for VS2005. On development machine everything works perfectly. I had to notice that also on some deployment machines it is OK, so I suppose that .msi file is correct. I tried both with and without merge modules and results are the same. Does any one have same idea .. We are experiencing exactly the same p ...Show All

• .NET Development Dual MatchCollection on "A B|C D|E F|G H" input

  I have an input file (this is simplified; the real input file is very very very large): A 1\n B 2\n C 3\n D 4\n I am using the following code: Regex first_part = new Regex("[A-Z]* "); Regex second_part = new Regex("[A-Z]*\r\n"); MatchCollection firsts = first_part.Matches(input_file); MatchCollection seconds = second_part.Matches(input_file); for (int i = 0; i < firsts.Count; i++) { Console.WriteLine(firsts[ i ].ToString() + " " + seconds[ i ].ToString()); } Does the MatchCollection implementation guarrantee that the output is still matched up accordingly What this I mean that A and 1 are still printed on the same line, and B and 2 as well (although on another line). Thanks! Why don't you use ...Show All

• Windows Forms MaskedTextBox

  I am trying use the new Windows.Forms.MaskedTextBox control (new for .NET 2.0) with a mask type of Short date (00/00/0000). the problem is that when i pull a date value from SQL Server, the mask fails. For example if SQL returns 6/10/2006, the maskedtextbox displays 61/02/006. I tried to replace 0 in a mask with 9 (optional number), still the same problem. This is how i format date in code: if (clientDetails.Tables["Clients"].Rows[0]["AuthCodeStartDate"]!=null ) { AuthCodeStartDate.Text = String.Format("{0:d}", Convert.ToDateTime (clientDetails.Tables["Clients"].Rows[0]["AuthCodeStartDate"])); } Thanks for the help!

• SQL Server $25,000 per processor for this?

  What is wrong with Microsoft How could you honestly release this product I agree with everyone else - the new features in SQL Server 2005 are not worth losing the features in 2000! I'm telling my clients to not upgrade. You guys had better release a new version or upgrade fast. mySql is starting to be a real competitor. I can no longer justify your cost. I happen to agree with you about how you describe your disatifaction. Most likely MySQL is your best choice. However, all of my clients have most definitely found that upgrading to SQL 2005 to be well worth the time and expense. I wouldn't consider using MySQL at all since SQL 2005 provides so much functionality that the time and effort to pa ...Show All
