• SQL Server Url Question

  Is there a way to access the url of the page that you are on in a report I notice that you can access the report server url, but I need to read a page url and access it in the report. Is this possible No, I don’t think do, but what you can do is to compose your current URL via the ReportServerUrl , ReportPath, ReportName and Parameters that were called. YOu would have to put that in one complete expression. HTH, Jens Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All

• Commerce Server Loading And Updating The Commerce Catalog

  I would like to ask for advice on loading the Commerce catalog from an outside source. Let me first explain how we are currently doing this and ask for comment on how we could do it more effieciently as it now takes an unacceptable amount of time to load it with a lot of data. First, our site is set up for multiple stores. Somewhere around 1000 stores will be loaded into the system, currently there are a little over 300 stores. All stores share the same basic product data, or master catalog, however, not all stores sell the same products and each store has its own pricing. Therefore, we have created a BaseCatalog containing all available product data. Each store is then setup with its own VirtualCatalog which contains just the products ...Show All

• .NET Development How to specify a custom eventlog in app.config

  Hello all, I'm trying to learn about .NET configuration files. I've setup my app.config file to log to the EventLog (apparently to the application log). I'd like to know how I can tell the configuration file to create my own custom event log instead of using the application log. Here is my configuration file. < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > <configuration> <configSections> </configSections> <connectionStrings> <add name="DBConnectionString" connectionString="TESTSTRING" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </connectionStrings> <system.diagnostics> <sources> <!-- This section defines the logging configurati ...Show All

• Visual Studio Debug C# code and VB

  I've tried to debug C# code with my VB6 project with no success. I wonder what settings I need to set in VB6 and VS 2003 environments. My VB project is referenced to C# code using late-bound method. Thanks! When using COM interop to call C# .NET code from VB6, you need to attach to the VB exe process from VS 2003 (Tools menu -> Debug Processes...) You can set breakpoints in the C# code by adding the following lines: #if(DEBUG) System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Break(); #endif ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) What is SyncDirection.Snapshot?

  What is SyncDirection.Snapshot and how it is used In addition to the reasons Michael mentioned, Snapshot doesn't require any change tracking meta data on the server. So, if you're synchronizing a table that you can't add a LastEdit type column to because you can't make schema changes, you can still synchronize data with the Snapshot option. Steve ...Show All

• .NET Development XSLT to Excel transfer slow when using large data files

  I am attempting to transfer an XML file to an Excel File using XSLT. I am using XmlDataDocument and it slows down greatly on large data sets.

• Visual Basic I'm making a conversion program...

  For those of you who know me, I've finally settled on an idea for a program. It converts (for starters) from anything that ends with meters (you know, centimeter, millimeter, kilometer) into anything else that ends with the word meters. You get the idea. I'm useing combo boxes, and I need to assign values to the names in the box, so they can be multiplied. Like, the selection (this is exactly what it looks like) "centimeter(cm)" needs to be assigned the value 0.01. How do I do that, and make it so that when one thing from one box is selected, and one thing from another box is selected, and a button is clicked, they get multiplied together Thanks. try this: Private Sub Form1_Load ( ByVa ...Show All

• Visual C# Controlled Shutdown of a Consol Application

  Sorry if I have posted this in the incorrect section, but I wasn't sure where to post it, and as I am coding in C# I decided to put it here. The Issue I have several console application which need to perform a controlled shutdown. I create the Console application form code and store Process objects for each process created. I need to be able to tell if the process is still resoponding and hope to use the call Process.Responding to determine this (after first calling a Process.refresh()). When the creating application is told to it needs to shutdown the application in a controlled manner to allow for tidying up of resources and closing sockets. As such I am hoping I can call Process.CloseMainWindow. In both cases I have made the assumption ...Show All

• .NET Development SMTP Mail without SMTP Service

  I have a requirement for an email program to send SMTP mail without having IIS (and therefore no SMTP service) installed on work stations. I found a nice solution to this at http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/20030316.asp . I modified the code to fit my needs and it works. However I have a couple of issues. One: How do I cause the SMTP server to send out delivery notifications on failure and success This is pretty easy using the DeliveryNotificationOptions of the System.Net.Mail.MailMessage class. But of course I am not using this. Two: How do I send authentication or system credentials to the SMTP server Again, this is pretty simple using the System.Net.Mail.Message class.
