• Visual C++ VC++ 2005 redistributable (vcredist_x86.exe etc.)

  Hi there, I noticed that the Beta 2 redistributable is hosted on the Microsoft download library, but the final ones seems not to be. Will it be hosted on microsoft.com (or is it already somewhere ). Also, it has been reported to me that on Windows 2000 the (RTM) redistributal gives an unuseful error message if Windows Installer 3.1 is not installed. The message is error 1723. "A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run." . It would be a lot more helpful to my users if this was a more informative error message - the solution of installing Windows Installer 3.1 was only found by trial and error. Thanks. Nikola.

• SQL Server Calling SSIS packages from a Service Broker Queue

  I would like to call an SSIS package from a Service Broker Queue. There is one way that I am aware of - Using xp_cmdshell from within an activation stored procedure and using DTEXEC. Is there a more elegant way of executing an SSIS package from within SSB Also, I am not interested in writing a .NET external activator to process my messages in the queue. I would like this operation to be strictly database oriented. Having said this, I am also trying to avoid triggers processing the messages in the queue. Thank you! SQLCLR with unsafe assembly (in order to call Process.Start()) would be slightly better option than xp_cmdshell. Even then, starting external processes from an activated stored procedure is l ...Show All

• .NET Development Integer vs Int16

  If value of variable is always going to be between 0 - 100 then will it make diiference to overall perfromance of application if we define that variable as integer instead of Int16. Assume that we have large no of such variables and they are used in highly transcational app where their value keep changing. Since now a days ll Pcs come with 32 bit CPUs and 32 memory dose it make sense to use 16 bit datatypes.

• Gadgets Downloading and searching a web page...

  Hey. I just got into Sidebar development and have a question. I've already got my gadget displaying nicely, but have run into problems making it functional. My Javascript is really rusty, so bear with me here. I'd like to be able to download a web page's source (HTML, generated HTML from a PHP page, whatever, not like the actual scripted source or anything, just what the end user sees) and then be able to sift through it for a certain element.
