• SQL Server READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT

  READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT in 2005 is what I wanted. However, I am still using 2000. READ_COMMITTED in 2000 is different. Can anyone give me advice on this issue (or there is no way in Sql Server 2000 to handle the following scenario: Process One UPDATE tableA SET fieldB = 'testing' WHERE fieldA = 1; Process Two SELECT * FROM tableA WHERE fieldA = 1; While Process One is working, Process Two will fail. But I just want to allow Process Two to read the data (i.e. the version that before Process One is working). This is what READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT do in Sql Server 2005. ) Thanks for any advice. Hi Wilson. There is no automatic method to allow this type of read i ...Show All

• SQL Server HelloWorld_CLR not sending messages anymore...........

  Hello, Yesterday I made the HelloWorld_CLR sample work and figured today I would create a simple windows service to immulate its functionality.  When this was not working I tried the sample again and it stopped working.  I have tried several things and nothing has worked.  Has anyone seen this before or have any ideas on how I can get it working again   I even tried removing SQL Server and its samples then reinstalling to give me a clean slate but that did not work.  I did not make any changes to the software nor did I make any changes to the database however the sample did so I need to make sure I can fix this incase it happens in development not to mention I need to continue development.

• Visual Studio Team System Backup to remote computer and "Local System" service account

  I don't really understand how to do a backup of the SQL databases to a remote file share. Following the instructions in the install guide, I picked "Local System" as the service account for the SQL Server. But that means that backups can't be made to remote file shares, right Also, looking at the SQL documentation, they advice against using "Local System" as the service account for SQL for security reasons. So, two questions>/P> 1) Can I backup to a remote share when SQL Server runs as "Local System" If yes, how I am running in workgroup mode. 2) Can I just change the service account for the SQL Server to a local user account If that same local user account exists on the computer to which I want ...Show All

• SQL Server No more datatype TIME in SQL 2005...what to do???

  I understand that SQL 2005 doesn’t support TIME ( which is, for me, incredibly weird). Now, could anyone please help me solve my problem. I want to make it possible to insert into database a start-time for the first runner in a team. And when he finishes, a finish-time. This finish-time I will also use as a start-time for the second runner....a.s.o. Furthermore I want to be able to get the results from the database to present them in several ways. This also means I can't simply insert the time as a string since it won't change hour at every 60 minutes. I have read somewhere that it should be possible to create own datatypes, but I have absolutely no knowledge to that. Could anyone please help me ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Debugging without ActiveSync -unable to get Visual Studio 2005 to cooperate

  Hi all, I've been trying to debug a Windows CE 5.0 based device with VS 2005. Since this device doesn't have a full serial port or USB client port available, I've turned to debugging without ActiveSync (I did try merging in some AS partnership information from another device into the registry, but haven't quite gotten AS to connect.) I've used the instructions pointed to elsewhere, e.g. http://blogs.msdn.com/vsdteam/archive/2005/04/28/413304.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms228708.aspx However, there appears to be no manual startup server option -- VS 2005 seems to insist that ActiveSync be used as the Startup Server/Bootstrapper. When I try to connect after following the above instructions, it always ...Show All

• SQL Server How to hide a value within a Dimension

  Hello, I am trying to hide a value within a Dimension. Currently, the Dimension contains (NewBooker, RepeatedBooker, Others). I would like to hide Others (so people cannot see and filter on this value) while for Total (ALL)still show the GrandTotal (including Others). I would rename the Dimension name so users would understand Total includes Others. Is it a MDX statement I have to specify at Dimension or Cube level to hide this scenario. Any help is appreciated! -Lawrence Sorry, it was getting late and I was a bit brief with my response. If you only have one level, what I would do would be to insert your own top level and turn off the automatic All level. You either give the member you want t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Resend KeyEvent?

  Hello everybody, is it possible to recall a KeyEvent from my application The problem is as follows, I finally managed to override the hardkeys (like the green Talk or the red End button) on the phone. I do this by calling GXOpenInput() from the Game API. This works quite good. To detect keypresses I start a new thread where the program calls GetAsyncKeyState() to detect if a specific key was pressed (i.e. state_F3 = GetAsyncKeyState(0x72) for the Talk-key). The problem lies in the underlying form. Since all keypresses are blocked the form doesn't get notified if for example a softkey is pressed on the mobile. On this softkey a menuitem may be mapped. If this menuitem works as a simple button, no problem, I can invoke the callback function ...Show All
