• SQL Server Windows Authentication - Different Domain

  Hi: I am trying to figure out if there is a way to connect via SQL Server Management Studio to a server sitting on a separate domain. So here is the situation. there is Server B which sits in a domain called DomainB. If I am in DomainA, I could typically remote into that server utilizing an IP address in DomainB, and even transfer files to that server. But how do I connect via SQL Server Management Studio(basically login as a different domain user) to Server B in DomainB from DomainA. Basically when I choose Windows Authentication from the dropdown list in SQL Server Management Studio, it grays out the username field, which is where I could type something like this domainB\usernameondomainB, similar to how you would connect to a share o ...Show All

• Visual Basic R

  I'm sure this is possible to do. I am working with a UTF8 encoded file. When the file is opened in VB and loaded into a text box, the line breaks are converted to squares. Each line break is represented by two sqaures. I have been using code to replace bad chars, but the problem with it is that it replaces a single instance of the square with a LB. So I am getting too many LB's. How can I replace this with a single line break TIA That is correct. All characters appear normal (plain text). However the line breaks are represented by the . I also tried opening the file in MS Word and Wordpad with the same results. The application from which the file came from is "Opera Web Browser". It ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Adding a filter to the graph builder

  When I add a filter to the graph builder , does its interface reference count increases by one As far as you are concerned, no when you do an AddFilter for a IBaseFilter that you created yourself previously (you just need to release your pointer).

• .NET Development Socket transfer of TIF results in unreadable TIF file.

  Hi everyone, bare with me, this is my first post here. Currently, we have a program that connects to a server and retrieves three types of files (TXT, CSV, and TIF). The program now needs to be in VB .NET without changing the server code. In my code below, I can successfully receive textual files (TXT and CSV) files byte-for-byte without a problem. The resulting files work perfectly too. However, when I try to retrieve the TIF, my program outputs the correct number of bytes but the file is corrupt. I was wondering if anyone can point me in the correct direction. <CODE> Public Function readFile(ByVal strBuff As String, ByVal fileSize As Int32) As String Dim returnData As String = "" 'Holds returned data from s ...Show All

• Architecture Architectural Considerations for Auditing

  We are building an application which connects to two kinds of database viz. one is a local database store and other is located at a central server. Now to perform auditing for every transaction I am of the opinion to do auditing at the database level. Implement it as part of trigger insertion into an audit table. Reason being its simple to implement and maintain. My Database Architect is against the idea and wants me to handle auditing at the application level. Would appreciate your viewpoints and guidance on this. Thanks Sai Hi, Basically if you see the issue from a database architects perspective , he might be correct when he does not want to use triggers for auditing. Execution of triggers ca ...Show All

• Windows Forms CollectionEditor questions Names in left pane

  Hello all, CustomItem is a class which inherits Component. I then created a strongly typed CustomItemCollection which inherits CollectionBase. Next, I wrote a custom editor which inherits from CollectionEditor. It works well except that I can't figure out how to access the (Name) property in the PropertyGrid. I would like to change the names in the left pane away from Class0, Class1, Class2, etc. based on one of the properties in my CustomItem class. Thanks in advance for any ideas and/or suggestions. Hello mangelp, I believe GetDisplayText is VS2005, we are still using VS2003. I can't use the default because I need to change it after one of my properties has been set.
