• SQL Server Reporting Services MemoryLimit

  We're having trouble with memory configuration in Reporting Services 2k5 SP1, running on Win 2k3 SP1. We have a very large report, which we've been running to benchmark performance.   First, here are the results of our testing: Initially, the server had 512mb of RAM. When running the report, the w3wp.exe process used up to 400mb of RAM and Reporting Services usually timed out before delivering the report. We increased the RAM in the server to 1024mb, and found we could run the report. It took around 02'30" to complete, and the w3wp.exe process peaked at 520mb of RAM usage. When we tried to run two instances of the report concurrently, RAM usage peaked around 800mb, and Reporting Services timed out before delivering the ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Problem Indexing E-mails with WDS 3.0 Beta 2

  I have upgraded WDS to Product Version 6.0.5486.108 {3.0 Beta 2 for Windows XP (KB917013)}. It seems to be indexing my files and running well but none of my e-mails are included. I have Outlook 2003 (11.8010.8036) SP2. As an experiment I have installed Google Desktop Search. It has no problem picking up all the e-mail messages on my HDD in the *.pst files. WDS does not index them at all. Just to give you an idea (of the magnitude of the problem) -- Google Desktop Search identifies more than 100,000 files on my HDD when indexing is complete; WDS only finds ~ 26,000! The difference is the missing e-mails. What is the 'trick' Just to add to my confusion Windows Desktop Search is not listed when I open Settings/Control Panel/Add or Remove P ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development detect information bar?

  Is it possible to detect whether or not the information bar appears in IE I want users to be able to download a file but get mixed results on different machines, sometimes the file will download but occasionally it will be blocked by the bar. I want to display additional instructions for the user if it is blocked, anyone know if it is possible to detect this Generally, no, you cannot detect the information bar from the page. You specifically cannot detect the file download information bar. To ensure the download isn't blocked, ensure that the file download is treated as a user-initiated action: specifically, ensure that the download is triggered by clicking on a link. ...Show All

• Windows Forms AddNewItem button in BindingNavigator Flashes

  Hi everyone, Here's a strange bug. I have a form with a DataGridView control and a corresponding BindingNavigator . My problem is with the AddNewItem ( + ) button. Now when I move my cursor over it instead of having it lighting up it flashes On/Off. (The button only works when I click on it when it flashes On.) I am using VB 2005 Pro. The DataGridView is bound to a DataSet containing one Table . Not complicated. Only one thing on the BindingNavigator I disabled it's AddNewItem property and I added an event handler so that when the AddNewItem is clicked it opens up another form where the user can enter the info. for the new record. Also, it doesn't do this all the time. You have to be working with the program for a while. If anyone ...Show All
