• SQL Server SQL Server Express Edition - no service pack yet

  I installed SQL Server Express on my local pc using the default settings. I also have SQL Server 2005 installed on the same machine. With the SQL Browser service running, I am unable to connect to the SQL Server Express database. I receive error: Cannot connect to MyComputerName\SQLEXPRESS. Additional information: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to the SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server) Any ideas why I'd be receiving an error about remote connections when the connection I' ...Show All

• SQL Server Executing MDX StoredProcedures using AdomdClient.dll

  Hi fellow developers, At the moment, i have a SSAS 2005 installed and a working cube on it. Everything is working fine. However i want to have an ASP.NET Page to access some of the data in the cube and present it. Well this would be no problem at all, if i use the AdomdClient and send queries over it, but this destroy my layer architecture. I dont want any Queries in my Application, but in the SQL Server. When i used a sql server database i always used stored procedures to access the data because of security and consistence. Now is there a possible way to create MDX Stored Procedures and execute them with the Adomd API like i did with sql server databases Or other clean solutions like creating mdx libraries on server and acc ...Show All

• .NET Development String.Compare with Unicode characters

  I am trying to sort a list of Greek Unicode strings, but I can't get the .NET framework to correctly sort or compare the accented vowels. For example String.Compare(" "," ") // or String.Compare("\u1f00","\u1f30"); always returns 0 and String.Compare(" ","α") always returns -1 regardless of the Culture information (current, invariant, Greek) I use in the other arguments of the Compare function. Is there a way to make the first comparison return a negative number The native API function is CompareString() . Same problem though, it returns CSTR_EQUAL for the all the characters. Windows Vista has CompareStringEx() but I can't try it yet. ...Show All

• Commerce Server Azman failing to load stores

  Hi When I start AzMan it tries to load the stores that were previously loaded, which at that point it displays an error message saying that it couldn't find the file paths. When I then open the stores manually there isn't a problem. Has anybody seen this behaviour before My main problem is that the Catalog service tells me "the current user is not authorized" and I wondered if the two problems were related. Thanks in advance Paul These two problems are not related. One workaround you can try for the azman problem is to first manually close the currently opened authorization store before closing the Azman MMC. Next time you start azman.mmc it should open without trying to access an ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Newbie: editing a branch

  I have a project A which I branched to B. Now I have to edit some files in B (the branch). I can do it in the Source Control, but changes are not "introduced" to the solution so I cannot compile and test. All documents I have read edit this way, but never compile!! What am I missing Which would be the best way to accomplish Another solution pointing to the phisical branch It looses source control. Many thanks I would suggest that after you take branch B, make sure you commit the branch. Then open up the solution (from branch B) and edit it as you normally would. You can then merge it back to your original branch if thats something you plan on doing,. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Locking Mouse

  Hi ive been looking for days to find the code that will lock "Block" the mouse move event from being processed... So far i've tried the code: actHook= new UserActivityHook (); actHook.OnMouseActivity+= new MouseEventHandler (MouseMoved); public void MouseMoved( object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { Cursor .Position = Ace; } where Ace is the point that the mouse was at last. This doesn't work unfortunatly as i can still move the mouse around... That event is hooked with a class called UserActivityHook (declared as actHook) (not my class) UserActivityHook public event MouseEventHandler OnMouseActivity; I'm thinking that Cursor .Position is only repainting the cursor and while the mouse ...Show All
