• SQL Server Conflicts from nowhere

  I have two tables that are getting conflicts between the subscriber and the publisher, however I am pretty sure we only update these tables at the subscriber. I have column level tracking turned on. The tables both have Nonoverlapping, single subscription (3) set for partition options. I wonder does this do any maintenance to the tables I have put in place some triggers to audit what makes changes to the data, but won't know until tomorrow, so if there is something that anyone knows about that might help, please let me know. Thanks The triggers I put in place to audit the updates to the table I am conerned with revealed that there were no updates occuring that were not expected. So, what happens is the data gets inserted via a bizta ...Show All

• .NET Development Trying to insert non-latin characters into sql-server through ADO.Net shows '????'

  Hi! I'm trying to insert non-latin characters (string) into the SQL-Server through me web application, and in the management console the field shows ' ' could this be fixed Thanx! Shushu, Is the column that you are inserting non-latin characters to defined as NChar; NVarChar; or NText If not, the unicode character you inserted will be translated into a standard 1-byte (ASCII) character. Most likely the reason why you are seeing the " ". I would recommended using unicode columns and parameters (for Stored Procedures) for handling non-latin characters. HTH, Jimmy ...Show All

• SQL Server Estimating growth of mdf file size...

  Hi, how can I estimate the mdf file size's growth as record inserted For a rough calculation you can calculate the sum of bytes needed for one row, e.g. Having a table with three CHAR(200) will need 600 bytes + additional overhead ~32 bytes. You can just sum up all the data types you have to get the row size in your table. HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development window handle for active tab

  hi folks, when a document completes loading in a new tab, my bho gets notified via DISPID_DOCUMENTCOMPLETE. how can i get the window handle for the tab window i've tried the EnumChildWindows/IsWindowVisible combo but it's not always reliable. it would seem IE7 has the handle but how to get it any ideas I may have misunderstood... Each tab has its own WebBrowser2 object and a new BHO is created for each tab. I'm not sure what you mean by "top-level" WebBrowser, i'm guessing the value obtained in SetSite - this should be unique for each tab or do you mean the HWND - having looked further up the thread In IE7 the HWND obtained is for the window, see the code earlier on to obtain ...Show All

• Architecture Design Consideration for active/active clustering

  Hi, I need help on the design consideration to develop a VB application to work in a Cluster (active/active). The application would consist of an NT service that will spawn activeX exe components based on a configuration. Thank you, regards, S. Balakrishnan One main thing that you need to remember regarding Microsoft's clustering technology is that it based on a "shared nothing" concept the meaning is that in an active/active configuration you'd need to partition the work between the two active servers and have each server act as a backup for the other one. Regarding other design consideration. you should probably provide some more details e.g. what are the fail-over ti ...Show All

• .NET Development HttpListener and a client error (403)

  I am attempting to create a al client/server app using the HttpListener class. I want to bypass IIS altogether. I was told that a system with SP2 has the necessary HTTP stack implemented in HTTP.SYS....so here is my simple, sample that I can't seem to get working. Initially I was going to create my server using sockets (SSL etc), but had read that it would be easier to user a higher level protocol like HTTP. So here are my first tentantive steps (cobbled together from googling). Any guidance would be appreciated, even a book reference would be welcome.... namespace MDA.HTTPServer { public class httpServer { public static void SimpleListenerExample(string[] prefixes) { if (!HttpListener. ...Show All

• Community Chat Opensource C# BitTorrent library

  Hi there everyone, I've written an open source bittorrent client library which runs on Windows/MacOS and nearly all flavours of Linux which is pretty much at Beta 2 status, i.e. most of the really big bugs are gone. The source is available at the public SVN for mono under the Bitsharp folder (details can be found at www.mono-project.com). There is also a TorrentCreator and BitTorrent Tracker library available at the same place, both written in C# aswell. Those are also needing developers should anyone be interested in pitching in. Example code and a more detailed blurb is at www.mono-project.com/Bitsharp. Basically, i'm doing a call to developers to: 1) Try and find a few people who wish to help with further developing the library. 2) Try ...Show All

• Windows Forms Changing the Layout mode of custom designer

  Originally I asked about turning off snaplines in the designer and got no answer. I found an article that said in Visual Studio you change the layout mode from Snaplines to SnapToGrid to get rid of snaplines. It also says that if you hold Alt while dragging Snaplines are turned off. The Alt trick works just fine. However, I cannot figure out how to do the other. My question is: "Is it possible to change the layout mode of my custom forms designer and if so how can I change it "   Ken Ok I need to learn how to ask better questions. The answer to this was to use the DesignerOptionService . When I finally got this implemented, I was able to do all kinds of fun things. Like turning o ...Show All
