• SQL Server Conlidate databases for multiple installations

  1. install a SQL Express instance such as myexpress; 2. create some databases with tables such as db1 and db2; 3. Reinstall SQL Express with the same instance name "myexpress". I assume we need reinstall SQL Express myexpress again becuase of bad operations. 4. Open the myexpress by management tool but I can not see db1 and db2 databases but the datafiles and logfiles are in the data directory. The question is what I need to do so I can consolidate exited databases so they can be seen in "myexpress" instance by management tool Hmmm it seems it has nothing to do with Team System, I would recommend you to ask this in the SQL Server forums, in which you will get more help ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Options I miss in svcutil.exe

  How do I generate code for ServiceContracts only (without DataContracts at all) How do I auto-merge code and .config-s from >1 services at once As you mention, for 1, you can use /r, for 2, there is no option to do it. You can use Mex OM to do it if you really want it. basically you can use mexdataexchangeclient ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.description.metadataexchangeclient.aspx ) to download multiple medatadataset and merge them together yourself, then use wsdlimporter to import code ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.servicemodel.description.wsdlimporter.aspx ). ...Show All

• SQL Server Activation not working

  Hi There Everything works 100% until i activate my sp. I specify to execute as 'dbo' in the alter queue statement. I also define the activated sp to execute as 'dbo'. But i keep getting permission errors from my activated sp. i have tried to excute as 'sa' , i have even tried to write a job that excutes to stored procedure but it also get weird errors. Bottom line if i exceute the sp in management studio logged in as sa it works , but thorugh activation or a job nothing works, as 'dbo' or 'sa'. Thanx Hi Remus Lastly, it also mentions in Roger Wolters book that if you do not stipulate execute as for your activated sp it will execute in the backgrouond as a sysadmin. However if i do ...Show All

  If i need to draw multiple game units ( ex: spaceships) in a scene ( they all have the same model ) whats the best way to do it Lets say the spaceship model has 4 sub meshs ( engines, wings, weapons, something else ) Currently I render each model by calling a function like this for each ship: Effect eff; Model model; eff.Parameters["blah"].SetValue["someValue"]; foreach(ModelMesh mesh in model.Meshes) { eff.Begin(); foreach(Effectpass pass in eff.CurrentTechnique.Passes) { pass.Begin(); foreach(ModelMeshPart part in mesh) { // set the texture for this part // draw the part } pass.End(); } eff.End(); } Currently if there are 500 same ...Show All

• Windows Forms ClickOnce in .Net 2005

  Hi, I would like to implement automatic updates to my application (which is in C#). I’m quite confused, I heard that there is ClickOnce\ Updater Application Block built in .Net 2005, is it correct How do I use it Were can I find relevant tutorials In the MSDN site I could find only the Updater Application Block for .Net 2003 Thanks, Gil You might want to read some messages in this forum about the issues with ClickOnce and certificate expirations. (I don't have a URL handy. Sorry.) In a nutshell, once your certificate expires, your users will have to uninstall and reinstall the app. to get updates. Renewing a certificate won't work as far as ClickOnce is concerned. The only work around is to generate a t ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development Javascript bug?

  I created a javascript file that contains a series of functions for popup windows to eight diffrent info blurbs and found IE 7 displays a completely blank (white) page when calling the script via this method: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../includes/pop_windows.js" /> For the record, I tested same in Firefox, and it plays with it just fine. Frustrated, I resorted to the less efficient (in my opinion) method of calling the scripts from the <head> section of the source page itself, i.e.: <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- function p1() { aWindow=window.open("p1.htm","thewindow",& ...Show All

• SQL Server 2 similar queries - different results! Why?

  SSAS2005. Tell me please, why this query SELECT { [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] } ON COLUMNS , { [Product].[Product Categories].[All Products] } ON ROWS FROM [Adventure Works] WHERE ( [Product].[Category].&[ 1 ] ) returns: $29,358,677.22 but SELECT { { [Product].[Category].&[ 1 ] } * { [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] } } ON COLUMNS , NON EMPTY { [Product].[Product Categories].[All Products] } ON ROWS FROM [Adventure Works] returns different result: $28,318,144.65 If I replace [Product].[Category].&[ 1 ] on [Product].[Product Key ].&[BK-M18B- 40 ] then results are identical! $25,919.52 Thanks.

• Visual C# C++ code to C#

  I spend few hours trying to rewrite one code which is about 100 lines long... There are using memcpy, memset and etc in C++ code, maybe someone could help me to make it work .. I am just beginner in C# and C++.... Just write replay here or e-mail (my e-mail: cybaslt@hotmail.com) You're right. That's just not going to work. The problem is that the C++ code does a lot of things that are just not allowed in C# (or in managed code at all for that matter). Mainly, using memcpy to fill an object would bypass that object constructor, which is a no-no. Basically, the C++ code (which is really just C code with a few minor changes -- the typedef on the struct definition is the real giveaway), reads a file in ...Show All
