• SQL Server problem with DtsTransferProvider

  I am trying to transfer a database from one SQL Server 2005 server to another. TransferData method completes successfully (and all tables are available in the destination) if the source db contains only default database users (namely dbo, guest, sys). Then I repeated the same process after adding a database user (named 'testdbuser') to the source database, TransferData method threw the following exception, but the database was created in the destination (tables were not available in the destination) ERROR : errorCode=-1073548784 description=Executing the query "CREATE USER [testdbuser] FOR LOGIN [BUILTIN\Admini..." failed with the following error: "User, group, or role 'testdbuser' already exists in the current database.".

• Audio and Video Development Question about normalizing percentage-based "textAltitude" or "textDepth" values

  Hello all, I want to parse a percentage-based "textAltitude" or "textDepth" values, like "150%", into pixel-based values, like "31px", which is required by the normalization process specified in spec VI7-41-2. I had read spec VI7-95 and [XSL] 7.27.4 / 7.27.5 to find out that the percentage-based values shall be calculated based on the "em-height" of font, but I am not sure what that "em-height" is, and if I just consider the textSize as "em-height", the calculated values will not meet the testing contents' spectations. Can someone explain what the "em-height" of font is and how to calculate the pixel value of percentage-based "textAltitude" o ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development IE 6 opens new window instead of loading in frame specified by target attribute

  I have a frameset with multiple frames, some nested. One of the frames has an anchor that uses a target atribute to load the referenced page in one of the other frames. When I click the hypelink, however, the page loads in a new window, not the frame specified in the target attribute. This will happen repeatedly. However, if I refresh the browser just one time (on the main page with the nested framesets), then from then on the link will behave properly, loading the content in the other frame vice a new window. Once I've refreshed, the behavior will be correct no matter how many times I click the link. Very strange. I can't imagine what is happening when I refresh the browser that makes any difference, or why it doesn't work properly to beg ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Buttons on Form disabled when using SQL Database

  Ok, I've tried de-bugging this and I can't figure out how to rectify my problem. So far I have a simple application with a simple database. (I'm getting back into programming after 20 years.) I have a list box with names of historical figures. When you click on the name a picturebox on the form changes to that person's picture and there is a 'summary' text box which says a little about them. The list box is bound to the database. It works pretty slick actually. The only problem is that once I click on the list box (and the event ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged takes place) all of the buttons on the form are unresponsive. Apparently the program goes into a loop where it checks to see if the listbox has changed and continues to do ...Show All
