• Visual Studio Source Safe 2005 & IIS 7.0 ( Vista )

  I can't get the webservice to allow PUT requests ( checking in files ), I get a failed authorization every time. Everything but the PUT works. I'm guessing it's some time of setting/permission that's not allowing the PUT verb, but I can't find anything that could be blocking it. Anyong have any ideas Richard is right, IIS in Vista does not have anymore the WebDAV web extension (the one that implements the PUT verb), so VSS over internet with server running Vista is a hopeless scenario. Also, running VSS Internet on XP while possible, it's not a recommended scenario. IIS in XP has a limit for the number of connections, and especially when using a proxy you can run fast out of these connections. T ...Show All

• Visual C# Variables - Named storage locations

  In "Learning C#," the author states the following: Technically, a variable is a named storage location (i.e., stored in memory) with a type. From the little assembly language course that I took in school many years ago, it hits me as odd that the memory location for the variable is indeed named. In assembly, we used to deal with registers R1, R2, etc., not actual variable names. What I would like to know is whether the actual memory location for the variable is, in fact, named and if so, where this name is stored. By the same token, the author states that the variable's type is also there. Is the type stored with the variable If not, how does MSIL tell what type a particular storage location (i.e. variable) is Of course, if ...Show All

  Hello there, I am using VS 2005 to create a cab file for a handheld device. It works fine but I want it to also do the following: 1. create a shortcut on the desktop of windows CE on the handheld. I have tried to add a custom folder called Desktop or Desktop Folder inside the Windows Folder but it doesnt work. 2. Have an icon on the shortcut of my applications logo instead og the custom exe icon of windows. Thanks in advance, John. There is no concept of "Dektop" in devices.

• SQL Server Calling user-defined functions in OLE DB Command transformation

  Hi We have a user-defined function that can be called directly via SQL (in SQL Server Management Studio) without error. We would like to use this function to populate a column, whist data is being processed within Integration Services. Using an OLE DB Command transformation to achieve this would seem the most appropriate. The following was inserted for the SQLCommand property: EXEC = dbo.GetOrderlineStatus(@dt_required = , @dt_invoice = , @dt_despatch = , @ch_status = , @si_suffix = , @re_quantity = , @vc_invoice_id = , @vc_order_id = ) However, when the Refresh button is pressed we are presented with the error below: Error at Load Orderline [OLE DB Command [15171]]: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8004E14. An OL ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Undoing a changeset?

  How do you back out of a changeset   I was experimenting with branches and merging and I made on a change on a branch when I intended the change for the trunk version.  BTW, I can see this being a problem because the VS editor MDI tabs only give a filename (not directory) and so does the solution explorer.  It would be nice if there were some visual cue to indicate that a solution you have loaded is not the "primary" version you work with but a branch instead. I'd like to second Buck's compliment.  You've definitely picked out some of the most painful cuts we had to make.  I believe some of them will be addressed with web releases of utilities but some need core code enhancements.&n ...Show All

• Visual C# accept indefinite parameters

  i want to implement such method which can accept N number of parameters....... how would that be possible Have you seen params keyword in C# private void SomeFunction(params int[] numbers) { /////// } You can call it using: SomeFunction(1); or SomeFunction(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10); or int[] arr = new int[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}; SomeFunction(arr); limitations: All parameters must be of same type. If you function also needs to get other types like string then params should be passed in last like this: private void SomeFunction(stirng someString, params int[] numbers) { /////// } SomeFunction("string", 1,2,3,4); I hope this will help.

• SQL Server Same cube, different answers.

  I have built a cube that consists of three tables. The first table consist of childcare facilities and is historical. The second table consist of their licenses to operate and is also historical. A facility typically has a group of licenses such as infant, toddler, schoolage, ect. and the license has an assigned maximum capacity. The third table is used to resolve the many to many relationship that exist since both tables are historical. For example, a facility's record may change over time but still have the same set of licenses. The dimensions of the cube consist of the facility dimension, the license dimension, and a fact built on max capacity. When I browse the cube from the cube designer I get one set of answers. When I built a piv ...Show All

• SQL Server RS 2005 run on SQL Server 2000 Database?

  Our product currently works with Cystal Reports but we decided to enhance it so it works with another reporting platform (MS Reporting Services).   We are in the beginning stages of developement and trying to decide which version of RS (2000 or 2005 ) to build the reports and integrate our web UI with.  Most of our clients are using SQL Server 2000 for their database platform and we don't anticpate them upgrading to 2005 in the near future.    If we built everything using RS 2005 could our clients deploy RS 2005 Report Server on a SQL 2000 Database    Is the licenses model the same when the Reporting Services and Database versions match vs non-match    Is ...Show All
