• SQL Server How to create a report using multiple databases

  Hi, I am a beginner of Reporting Service. I am trying to create a report using multiple databses. For example, I want to create a report called RevenueByCustomer, so I need to get data from the Customer Table of CRM database, which contains customer information, and I also need to get data from Transaction table of Sales database, which contains all the revenue information. In order to get data from both database, I have created two dataset.

• .NET Development System crash in EEHeapAllocInProcessHeap() inside XPathExpression.Compile()

  We are developing .NET components that are used through COM from a COM client written in VisualAge Smalltalk V7.0. We experience a system crash (access violation; error code C0000005) when the Smalltalk client calls a .NET method that internally calls the .NET method XPathExpression.Compile(string xpath, System.Xml.IxmlNamespaceResolver resolver) (e.g. through calls to the .NET methods XmlDocument.SelectSingleNode(string xPath) or XmlDocument.SelectNodes(string xPath) ). Further investigation with WinDBG and the "Son of Strike" debug extension showed, that the access violation exception is preceeded by many “Undefined exceptions C0000090” (EXCEPTION_FLT_INVALID_OPERATION ). The first of these C000090 exceptions happens in t ...Show All

• Visual C# Finding text in a Rich Text Box Control

  I find that when I use richTextBox.find(string) it only seems to search until the first occurrence of the string. How can I have a find like that in notepad etc. i.e. finds the next occurrence with each click. The code I'm currently using to do this is: int pos; if (RichTextBox.SelectedText == "" ) { pos = RichTextBox.Find(searchTextBox.Text, 0, RichTextBoxFinds .None); } else { pos = RichTextBox.Find(searchTextBox.Text, (RichTextBox.SelectionStart + 1), RichTextBoxFinds .None); } if (pos < 0) { MessageBox .Show( "Your query " + searchTextBox.Text + " could not be found" , "Results" , MessageBoxButtons .OK, MessageBoxIcon .Warning); RichTextBox.DeselectAll(); } ...Show All

• SQL Server update statement

  Newbie Question: Im trying to update a table column to a new value and I receive an error, here is my statement: USE PD51_Data; GO UPDATE CASENUMBERS SET CaseNumTypeID = 130 WHERE CaseNumTypeID = 101 AND CaseNumber BETWEEN 199999 AND 600001; GO I receive this error Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Conversion failed when converting the varchar value '9368----' to data type int.

• Visual C# ConvertToDigit

  how can a multidigit number be converted to its string equivalent in words.e.g.,1324 to be converted to OneThreeTwoFour and OneThousandThreeHundredTwentyFour .Without using case or if-else statements,in least possible code. You will have to use case or if-else statments. It's possible to create a look-up table of delegates for each number, but it's arguable whether you'd get any major speed improvements over a switch statement. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Designer not saving a property change

  Hi, I have created a component. The component has a property which is an array of strings. If I modify this array in the property browser window then the VS designer notes that I have changed the property and saves (serializes) the changes. However if I change the string array in the component code the VS designer does not realize that the property has changed and does not save it. It seems I need to make a change using the property browser in order to ensure my changes are saved. Any ideas or comments Joe Are you manipulating the control property directly if so, you need to use a PropertyDescriptor instead. See my article: HOWTO: Manipulating controls of Windows forms from Visual Studio .NET add ...Show All

• Windows Forms Multi thread

  Hi, I have a while loop which keeps showing words in a label on a Form. I can still do events with the Application.DoEvents(). But the while loop contains 2 thread.sleep(). Which makes it slowing down in handling events. Its getting stuck for 5 seconds in total. I thought i might solve this problem by using multi threads. Once the first thread starts which contains the while loop, it should start a second thead that contains the Application.DoEvents() and not slowing it down anymore. Can this be done like how i described it Or does anyone has a better solution I'm all ears, thanks in advance! I'd like to second what Ahmed said: Any use of "DoEvents()" is suspect. In fact, we treat use of Applica ...Show All
