• SQL Server How to view report on end user's computer?

  I have created Tutorial report from MSDN Reporting Services tutorial ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms170623.aspx ). Now i can view report from Visual Studio 2005 environment (with Preview pane or with Debug/Start Without Debugging command) or from Internet Explorer (opening http://localhost/reportserver$SQLExpress and navigating to project and report subfolders).

But i see no way to deploy RSReportHost.exe to end user's computers. Actu ...Show All

• Visual C# Problem in Reflection of dll from web service

  Hi everyone, I need to have Reflection of dll got from web service, i.e after retrieving wsdl file, generate .cs file and compile it to dll and then reflect it. The problem is the .cs file generated does not contain the structure : namespace...{} but it uses WebServiceBindingAttribute to specify the namespace so System.Reflection can not get the namespace of the types/classes by either using Type.Namesapce or Type.FullName. Any idea to handle that Thanks. Trang Namespaces aren't required in .NET. Given the assembly you should be able to load the type information directly using Assembly.GetType . Alternatively given the assembly use Assembly.GetTypes to enumerate all the types. If nothing else this will ...Show All

• Visual C# "is" operator efficiency

  is "is" lightweight Specifically, for checking whether a reference to a base type is a certain derived type. I am considering doing this in a method which I want to be as fast as possible. Its not exactly lightweight, but it is the fastest way of determining whether an instance is of a particular type (unless you want to check the type and then convert it, in which you should probably use 'as'). ...Show All

• Architecture Replication for Transactional Data as a Solution

  Hi, I have seen situations where replication was used for replicating master/static data from central to various stores. I have a scenario wherein even Transactional data that is being updated at each store, updates not only the store but also the central and in turn the central pushes the updates back to other stores. One of the approaches being considered is using SQL Server Replication. I am of the opinion of doing this from the application instead at the database level. Some of the points which lead me to that are- On insert/update of every records, this replication would need to kick in to achieve a near about real-time scenario. I am not sure if SQL Server would be able to handle that. I potentially see the database crawling in no ...Show All

  In this up i made i need to have a text document start when the app is fired for the first time then not again after that. The setting is saved per user and per version of your application. If you have run the app in the debugger, you can use the "Synchronize" button in the settings designer in order to "reset" the setting to its default value. You don't need to do this in order to publish your application, however - as soon as another user runs the app, it will be the first time for them (on that machine) Best regards, Johan Stenberg ...Show All

• Visual Basic Sharing Functions and constants between forms in an application

  I'm sure this is a really easy thing to do but I cannot get it to work. I have declared functions and constants as public in my main form but these cannot be seen by other forms in the application. Could  there be something simple I'm missing as everywhere I've searched just states - if the objects are delared public then they will be available for use in other forms     All help appreciated. Try using the Shared keyword in the function declaration. That way, the other forms won't have to use a reference to your main form to use the functions. For example: Public Class Form1 Public Const pi As Double = 3.14 Public Shared Function WhoIz() As String Return "nobugz ...Show All

• Visual C# Firing events in child classes...

  Hopefully somebody can explain why .NET will not allow me to do this... I have a class, NonStationary, which has a member CurrentValue, and an associated event OnCurrentValueChanged. Now, I have two classes which inherit from NonStationary: Joint, and Shaft. Inside Joint and Shaft, there are times when, if the user hooked the event in the application, the event will be fired because he/she has set a min/max value above/below the currentvalue. The problem is, is that I cannot check to see if OnCurrentValueChanged has been hooked (if it's null), nor can I fire the event from within the Joint or Shaft class. The error I get is: "The event 'OnCurrentValueChange' can only appear on the left hand side of += or -= (except when used from wit ...Show All

• Windows Forms Cannot download the application error!

  Not sure how this happened, but I am no longer able to run my application that I have published. I originally had about 95 revisions published and started getting this error. I manually deleted all the builds from the publish directory, removed my application from the add/remove program, deleted all related file folders under Local Setting/App/2.0, ran mage -cc, etc... I have tried all of that and I still cannot get my application to deploy and run anymore.
