• SQL Server Ongoing problem

  I have been having an ongoing problem that I don't need solved here, but maybe I need some direction. I have a form that I am trying to create that has four different sections (data lists). Each data list can have five different listed categories and these are populated based on a SQL select statement. In the report, I have to have each of these five categories print on the form regardless of whether there is data associated with them or not. My problem right now is that if there is not any data associated with a category, the table just does not print; not the header or the footer of the table. It is just a blank area. I have tried doing a FULL OUTER JOIN in the SQL select statement, but this is also not working. What would I need t ...Show All

• Office Live Development How to save site customisations and new Applications/Workspaces?

  I'm building a Workspace on my Office Live Premium site that I want to be able to deploy on multiple customer Office Live Premium sites. How can I save my new Workspace definition in such a way that I can easily deploy it to multiple customers Hi Tara. I followed your instructions, but it doesn't save the .STP file to my desktop PC.

• Visual Basic Issue with viewing errors in the IDE

  I have tried to view my errors by using the IDE. However, when I click on > View >> Errors I do not see the error list window. I only see if I run DeBug and click on the "Yes" to continue even though there are errors. Does anybody have any idea how I restore the ability to view my errors Thank you! I'll try that. I have errors, but I can't see the window. If I have errors and click Yes to continue when debugging, I see the errors.

• Smart Device Development Storage Card File System Errors on Device Emulator

  Hi I am having trouble with the Device Emulator mapped Storage Card File System. I am running a CE 6.0 image in the Emulator. I am in particular intermittently getting failures to open files for writing with the CREATE_ALWAYS flag. Delving into the VCEFSD driver, the problem is due to the initial Find call in the VCEFSD_CreateFileW function indicating that the file exists, when it doesn't really, and later it tries to delete the file and fails because it doesn't exist. Additionally, there are 2 calls to VCEFSD_GetFileAttributesW by code in CreateFile before the VCEFSD version is called, and both these call indicate the file does indeed not exist. Any ideas I have looked at the Shared Source for the Device Emulator V1, but haven't seen anyt ...Show All

• Windows Forms Binding to a Business Logic Layer

  Hi, The question is more for designers and architects. The question is about working with data, specifically about Binding to a Business Logic Layer. With introduction of typed datasets in .net 1.0 and especially in .net 2.0 I started to ask myself - isthat really necessary to create a class that is a mapping for a db table. I will explain what I mean. Take for example database pubs , table authors. With basically one click VS2005 creates for you a typed dataset, let's call it authorsDataSet , which incapsulates a complete object model of authorsDataTable , authorsDataRow and even multiple tables with their relationships. Notice that authorsDataRow IS an complete object model of an author. Besides, there is a authorsTableAdapte ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Product.cab not found?!?

  I tried to install Beta 2 after uninstalling Beta one and I got a lovely message when the installer was trying to copy over new files "Product.cab could not be found"... With the option to Abort, Retry or Ignore... Of course ignore rolled it back... What can be done to fix this I'll try to download the .msi again, but it's going to take me a while... Well, my first suggestion would be to try and run the installer again (although I'm guessing you've already done that) and if the same error comes up, I don't think you have any other option but to download the installer a second time. Just really sounds like the installer was corrupted during download. Hopefully, the second time is the charm and you'll be up and running ...Show All

• SQL Server LIKE '% [a-z]%'

  I have to select all rows from a table which violate a convention. The convention states that each word in the character string is seperated by a blank space and each word must begin in an upper case letter. The example in the subject line fails to achieve the results I am hoping for. How must the expression be written such that only those records where a blank space is followed by a lowercase letter are returned by the query What version of SQL Server are you using If you are on SQL Server 2005 you can use the technique below. Look at the link below for an inline TVF that can be used to split strings based on a delimiter. http://www.sommarskog.se/arrays-in-sql.html You can then use such ...Show All

• SQL Server Chart with Data Fields from Multiple Queries

  Is there any way to create a chart using data fields from more that one query I tried to create two different datasets, but the chart has to be bound to only one dataset. So when I drop the data field from the second dataset onto the chart I get a SQL error. I've also tried UNION ALL. Each of these queries is correct by itself, but UNION ALL combines GLBUDAMOUNT and GLTRXAMOUNT into one field. I need them to be two different fields so that I can do GLBUDAMOUNT VS GLTRXAMOUNT in the chart.     ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Searching Work item history

  Was it intended to allows for a text search in the history field using the query builder If I do a query on history using the 'contains' for a common word, nothing is returned Being able to search on the history would be very usefull to find items quickly instead of searching on fields individually Thanks B. Huard InCycle Software Sorry, by common word I did not mean the standard 'the', 'on', etc. (thanks for the tip on the noise words) For example if I search for 12001 (a common number in our world) it does not find anything. Anything I enter does not work. Our installation is an upgrade from Beta3. Could it be that the full text index is not activated Any idea on how I would ...Show All
