• SQL Server Query Timeout in SSAS

  I am using Sql 2005 SSAS. When building the Data Source Views using "Edit Named Query", the data source is pointed to a Sql 7.0 server. When I tried to execute the query, it terminates after 30 seconds with "Query Timeout Expired". Try editing the DataSource object for your SQL 7.0. You should be able to change query timeout. I beleive it is part of the connection string. Edward. -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Get StrongDataSet reference

  Hello... I'm writting an Unbound recipe that will open Custom Wizard pages. This recipe activates only when xsd files (Strong DataSets) in solution explorer are clicked with the IDE context menu. Thats all Ok... But I can't get this StrongDataset reference to get a DataSet reference in the WizardPage Code to cross it's tables. How to do that... Thanks CarlosMag If what you want is to have the schema loaded into a DataSet, you could use a DataSet instance, and call the ReadXmlSchema method providing to it the full path of the item (the .xsd file in the project).

• Windows Forms app.application Publish file

  Hi, I know this has already been posted, but I need to get it clear in a simple way. The 'app'.application file is created when you publish an application to a web/ftp server, along with other files. The publish.htm page shows a button linking to the 'app'.application file and I can correctly install it, but a friend of mine (and maybe many more people too) get the 'app'.application file contents displayed in his browser. He has the .NET Framework 2.0 installed (installed automatically with VB 2005 Express), and I would like a simple solution to resolve this issue, without reinstalling .NET 2.0 (unless you are sure it resolves it). I also heard that it has to do with MIME types , but I'm not too familiar with this term to unders ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Uninstalling Windows Desktop Search

  When I go to uninstall windows desktop search it pops up a message saying that it found these programs, then lists the programs, and at the bottom says "uninstalling windows desktop search might cause these program to not work properly". How can I uninstall WDS and have it not effect my other programs, and what did WDS do to these programs on my computer so that I have to have WDS installed before they will work properly Why is WDS tampering with my other installed programs This is very disturbing. WDS does not tamper other programs installed on the machine. The dialog box gives user an option to review the programs list which if dependent on WDS may not work.

• Visual C++ ActiveX in WIN32 and Console

  Greetings all, I'm in at an impass and hope someone on the forum can help point me in the correct direction. I am working with a control system that is writen in C/C++ and built on an OSI/Posix core. The main program body is a Console/Server application that expects few or no user events or inputs. We build with VC8 using Gmake ( from the cygwin suite ) and everything works well, the main application runs from console under Server2003 with no problems. We run in to an issue here, we have vendor supplied ActiveX controls that we would like to access from the control system. I dont know how, and neither do any of my vendors or other devlopers. Being a unix devloper for most of my life I assumed that we could instancate the control ...Show All

• SQL Server Displaying Data of a Cube over Web

  When you use BI Dev Studio or SS Management Studio to process an Analysis Services database or object, there's a nice dialog box that shows very robust status and progress information. Is there any way to capture this information if you are processing something programmatically   Specifically interested in both the ability to capture and display this information to a user when processing via a custom application.  Also interested in whether or not there's a way to capture this information to a log (or table) for display and analysis after the fact (or if the custom application is running in a batch mode via a schedule).

• Visual Studio Express Editions DataGridView Before Update Event ?

  In a DataGridView, is there an event before update we can used to perform some tasks, like updating fields of the current DataGridView or updating other tables that are not link to the current view Tanks for your answer the datagridview only shows the data being bound from the datasource, or directly added to it. That's all. In terms of doing operations before the update event, wherever you are placing the code to update the database, only there would be the chance for you to do your editing on wherever it needs to be done as far as I can understand.
