SQL Server Report printing issue using the browser print control after deployment
I am having an issue with report printing. I have used a specific font (Garamond) for all the report elements when creating the report in Bus Int. Dev. Studio. While printing from the preview pane, the report prints with the Garamond font (as intended). But the issue is that after deployment, printing the report (with browser print control) does not print it with the Garamond font (looks like it is using the Arial or a similar font). This changes the whole look and feel of the report. I have tried printing the report from the reportserver, report manager and through URL access. All the 3 methods are giving similar results that the print output is not using the on-screen font. Anybody else face similar issues Is there any workaround ...Show All
.NET Development Maintaining the Query Through States issues "WORKS @ HOME"
I have built a web front end in ASP.NET that ties into a database used to capture information from varies servers. The front end uses a datagrid to display the data from the database. The front end also includes drop downs and text boxes that the user enters in criteria to be searched on. When the dataset is returned and displayed based on the criteria entered into the form I would to be able to edit fields returned. The issue I'm having is that the criteria(SQL statement) isn't being kept if I want to edit a certain recordset returned after criteria is submitted. What happens is that when clicking the edit button for a particular recordset it is returning the original resultset without the criteria entered. I do not have this issue @ home ...Show All
.NET Development OLEDB Excel provider - select data from the first sheet
Hello, I'm using connection string to connect to excel sheet. something like: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\MyExcel.xls;Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1""" after it I use sql select statement. the FROM clause contains the sheet name in the workbook. can I avoid using this name, and just select data from the first sheet Thanks. What would be the main reason for this I do not think provider allows using indexes for the spreadsheet names and you would definitely need to pass the name in your SQL, but if you use GetOleDbSchema you could get list of the spreadsheets inside of the workbook. The only thing is that I do not believe that GetOleDbSchema guarant ...Show All

Windows Forms Flushing Values from an Active-X Controls onto Form Controls...
HI All, Is there any way in which we can flush values from an active-x control on to our form controls like a text box. My requirement is like this, I have a peripheral device like a Card Reader, I have some public variable in my Card Reader Active-X control, which gets the values when the user swipes the card.

Is there any way for me to get rid of the Javascript Timeout and flush the values from my Active-X control right onto my form controls straight away when t ...Show All
Visual Studio Deadlock in ReportViewer?
Hi there, I'm stumped by the following: My program loads a report into a ReportViewer control (in LOCAL mode!), populates its datasets, then executes the report. Then I start changing the paper source and orientation in the Page Setup button in the toolbar. Every 20 times or so that I change something and click OK, the entire app hangs, showing the animated green circle (now frozen) and "Report is being generated". I can attach a Visual Studio debugger, and I get the following stack traces for two of the 5 or 6 running threads. Anybody seen this before, or have an idea of what's going on FIRST THREAD [In a sleep, wait, or join] > mscorlib.dll!System.Threading.WaitHandle.WaitOne(long timeout, bool exitContext) + 0x2e bytes ...Show All

Software Development for Windows Vista Persistence and long running workflows
Hello all I am developing a specialist content management system that uses state machine workflows to control the content throughout its lifecycle, which could last from a few days to a number of years. I have implemented a custom persistence service that uses Activity.Save and Activity.Load to (de)serialize the workflow state into and out of my backing store. This all works fine and I am very happy with it. However there is one major issue: Whenever I make the smallest change to a workflow none of my saved workflows can be deserialized. Instead it throws an IndexOurOfRangeException from ActivitySurrogate.ActivitySerializedRef.OnDeserialization This part of the framework does not appear to be designed for user extensibili ...Show All

Commerce Server Problem while excluding category from virtual catalog
Our company has a base catalog containing all our categories and products. Some products belong to more than one category. We would like to exclude some categories from the site for certain customers so we created virtual catalogs having the appropriate exclusions. However, we have encountered a problem in that any product within an excluded category is no longer available in the virtual catalog even though that product is also within a category that has not been excluded. I am curious if this behavior is this by design Unfortunately, this is the default behavior for exclusion rules in virtual catalogs. According to the on-line docs "When you define an exclusion rule on an item, all descendants of that item are excluded from ...Show All
