  I have a server running SQL Server 2005 Dev behind a firewall that blocks the default SQL Server port. So, I changed the port that SQL server uses to another port.

• Visual Basic Problem printing with RawPrinter and Win98

  I use the RawPrinter class, as per MSDN discussions.  This has printed perfectly well from a Win98 client to a shared printer on a WinXP machine.

• Visual Studio Team System Visual Studio crashing all the time

  I have two virtual servers running, one with Team Foundation server Beta 3 and Sql 2005, and one with Visual Studion Team edition RC installed. When working on the Visual Studio box, it constantly crashes and especially when working with tests.  Both virtual machines have 1500 MB of memory allocated. Is this not enough maybe I had the previos betas installed as well and they did not crash this often. Seems a bit too much for a rc...

• Windows Forms Height limit

  Hi all I am using C# in VS.Net 2005. I have found that I cannot set the height of a form greater than 1036. Does anyone know if 1036 is absolutely the maximum for a form's height or any way to change the limit Thanks, To put a long story short. Let's look at this scenario: I am running a machine with 1280x960 and get the height limit 1036, but I am doing some maintenance work for an application targeting monitors with resolution 1600x1200 or higher (very common nowadays) and just need to rearrange two controls at the bottom of the form. The application was created with a higher resolution display so its height is 1100. Once I load the project and open the designer, its height drops to 1036. I have noticed that the hei ...Show All

• SQL Server long running report can not be rendered in Report Manager or through Subscription

  I am using a stored procedure which will run about one hour and ten minutes to return a dataset to reporting services to generate a report.

I even try to create a subscription to let it run throught. But it still can not finish.
