• .NET Development Dataset Update

  I have a dataset, and a save button that issues an update: myDataAdapter(myDataSet).Update() This works fine the first time the button is clicked. However, it I make changes to the record then click it a second time, it does not save the record. Is there another command/code i should be entering after the first update I have some more info based on testing. The first time I enter, the record is being inserted. It's second calls to the update (which should issue an update statement) that do nothing. If I call an existing record, I don't have any problem calling update() as many times as I want, and it will work ...Show All

• Visual Basic Need help with "Constant expression is required"

  I'm trying to define an Enum containing integers that make up a colour scheme. My problem is to define the values of the integers. I dont know where to get the hexadecimal values for the colours and in any event would prefer to use the colour names and have the compiler insert the values. The following code is an extract of my code and the second line generates a compiler error stating "Constant expression is required" Enum Autumn As Integer PlotGridColour = Color.ForestGreen.ToArgb() PlotUpColour = &HFF00& PlotDownColour = &H60FF& End Enum To isolate the problem I tested the following statements; Private Const PlotGridColour As Integer = Color.ForestGreen.ToArgb() Dim P ...Show All

• SQL Server Add a calculated measure to a Measure Group ??

  I have created a calculated measure which is logically very much part of a specific measure group but I can't seem to work out how to add it to the measure group.. it just sits there as part of the general Measures. Can I specifiy in which Measures group it should reside This would also make more sense for managing Perspectives.. In the calculations tab, when you are defining the calculation, look on the toolbar for a button named "Calculation Properties". Click on that and it will open a dialog box that you can use to add either display folders or associated measure groups for each of your calculated members. Just add an associated measure group for the calculated member in question and it w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Publishing unit test results without TFS

  Hi, I want to publish some unit test results to a system testing team without the use of TFS. I've recently moved over from a java project were all junit test results were published to system test in a junit report. This is idea for my organisation. Here the system test team are totally separated from development so TFS is not an option, and they will only accept code into system test if similar junit style unit test reports can be provided ! I really don't want to have to use NAnt and NUnit2Report, so am hoping there’s another option... Here's a simple template that will display the results of the .trx file: < xml version = " 1.0 " encoding = " utf-8 " > < x ...Show All

• SQL Server Execute SQL Task speed

  I've created a SSIS package, in a sql 2005 instance, that uses an Execute SQL Task" to call a stored proc as its last step. When run from BIDS, the last step takes about 2 to 3 minutes, consistently. When I run the exact same query from Management Studio (either via exec <spname> or by copying the sp's t-sql code into a query window) it consistently takes about 1 minute. I've run sevral test and these number are quite reproducible. Any ideas to account for the "slowness" of the Execute SQL Task TIA, Barkingdog The dropdown box at the top of BIDs says "Development" Here is what I have found. My package runs three control tasks. When I run all three, the Exec SQL tas ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to change cursor position bar size in text box?

  My users are complaining that the flashing thin bar that indicates the cursor position inside a text box is hard to see. They ask if I can widen the bar. I imagine it has something to do with the font, but I cannot see where I can change this in the properties of the textbox. Is there a way to widen the cursor position bar inside the text box Thanks. I don't like posting C# code because the event handlers are initialized in the designer, not the source code. I created a custom control, derived from a TextBox. Add a new class to your project, then paste this code into it: using System; using System.Drawing; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; public cla ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Alerts not being sent

  About a month back Sharepoint stopped sending alerts to subscribers. Notification is only sent when a new user is added. No other alerts are working for any of the Sharepoint sites on the server. I've searched pretty extensively for a solution and the closest I have come is: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/894632/en-us. But the kb solutions did not correct the problem. The SP installation is running on server 2003 sp1 and the SP version is 2.0 (version no. 11.0.6361.0 (sp1)). At this point I'm baffled but I really need to get this fixed. Any ideas or help is really appreciated. I remember Mike Walsh yammering on about this a while back in the newsgroups and he has graciously posted some info on his incred ...Show All
