• Visual C++ msvcr80.dll Problem

  Hi there, can someone possibly tell me why Noton WinDoctor is telling me that 10 executables in the .NET Framework 2.0 cannot access the necessary dll file msvcr80.dll I see that the dll exists in the WinSxS directory and I'm running XP pro. I didn't have this problem until I downloaded the 2.0 framework at windows update. Any advice appreciated. Thanks. Naolin Thank you for sharing the solution to this msvcr80.dll problem.  I had the exact same problem as everyone else and when I followed your instructions, my Norton Win Doctor found no more probems, and my machine is back to normal. You have really helped some people with your posting, including me! Sincerely, John Allen     ...Show All

• SQL Server Bulk Insert with Mirroring

  Can anyone suggest a bulk insert solution in a mirroring environment Basically, I'd like to import a text or excel file using SSIS. Do all the "Flat File" and "Excel" data flow sources use bulk inserts Just wondering if I would need to use a "staging" table or something like that since bulk inserts won't be logged when dbs are mirrored.  I'm assuming I'd be able to import data using the dataflow sources into a sql destination "staging" table, then do a "INSERT INTO [production] SELECT * FROM [staging]". I'm assuming this will be logged (but slow). Any help would be appreciated.   ...Show All

• Windows Forms Update custom control at design time when property changed

  Hi guys, I created a custom control SListView extending ListView. I define the SListView to hold a collection of a simple class type, which has two fields: name and id. Name should be displayed in the SListView control. Everything works fine except after I added a collection of names, the SListView control does not update its content at the design time. It will only display the names at runtime. I searched for answer, it may related to ControlDesigner.OnComponentChanged method, but I can't find examples on how to use it. Any suggestion Thank you! Shu write the code on Page_load is will update ur sslist each time u use it.. Note: Do use isPostback to avoid collecting same names on each eve ...Show All

• SQL Server Accessing Reporting Services from a machine which is not the server

  Hello, I plan to install MS SQL Reporting Services 2000 (later probably 2005) on the same server as where the MS SQL Server 2000 database is stored. However, the developers (people designing the reports) will not have physical access to this server (it is stored in a different office). Remote Desktop is possible though, if no other solution exists. Are the developers able to use the Report Builder on every machine or is a single license needed for each developer workstation Or, in other words, what needs to be installed on a computer in order to create different type of reports Any comment on what is best or a link is appreciated. Thank you in advance! Best regards, Michael Fuchs ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Is there a way to hide the earth base layer?

  Some of the custom tile layers I have created cover up the base earth layers completely. Since they are covered and can't be seen, I don't want the client to download them when the covering layer is active. Is there a way to turn the base earth layer off and then back on again when the covering layer is removed Not that i know of, there is a good article on ViaVirtualEarth about rolling your own tile server that would give you a way to do it but honestly i think its more trouble then it worth. Is it such a problem that they download a few extra tiles (they are cached for 7 days) it all happens in the background. John. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Managing users

  Hello, I am trying to figure out the best way to manage SQL logins and database users in VSTS4DBP based on local Windows logins where the machine name differs in each deployment enclave (e.g. dev, test, stage, and production). Our environment is as follows: Due to deployment environment restrictions at our customer sites, we must use local Windows accounts as the basis for our SQL Server security - logins and database users. Although the user name remains the same, the machine name differs in each deployment environment, of course, so the project needs to be able to dynamically alter the full login name for each deployment environment. Because of the way VSTS4DBP handles user objects, we haven't been able to figure out how to mak ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Managing permissions

  Is there a way to restrict a user's ability to create, edit and delete labels or branches What I want to do is to have only certain users to have permission to manage labels and branches. Can this be done I just realized that if you deny access at the root level and then re-enable it on the subdirectories, you need to re-enable access to all the groups because the "Inherit security settings" option apply to all the groups - not just a selected group. So if you want to restrict just the Contributors from creating branches at the root, you will have to add all the other groups back in at the subdirectory level and add the permissions back in because the "Inherit security settings" opt ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Anyone else Agree - Missing Event?

  I was just wondering or agrees or... even... disagrees. Why is there no 'StateChanged' event There is event for Started, Completed, Terminated, but not the main event I , personally, would think would make the most sense: StateChanged Anyone else think this would very much be a benefit to workflows in general Especially, if the event included the option for a generic<T> object to be passed in the event. Again... a newbie just sharing his "two-cents". Trevor Thank you, I am NOT complaining. Tracking is VERY robust, I was just considering "simple" scenarios where such robust features are not necesarly required. I certainly have alot of "learning" to do ...Show All

• SQL Server Problem accessing MSDB in a cluster

  I'm new to sql clusters, but i've been asked to set up an SSIS job on a cluster. My wish is to import the dtsx package to MSDB, not to "File System". This works fine in my non clustered test environment, but on the cluster, I can't expand the MSDB node. When I try, I get a pretty long error message, I don't have it here right now, but i says something about that the reason could be the lack of a default instance on the sql server. I'm not the one who set up the cluster and to be honest, I don't know how default instances works in a clustered environment. Does anyone recognize the problem A related question. Should I connect to "the cluster" or to the node with SSIS installed when I upload the dtsx package I'm a ...Show All
