• Windows Forms abstract UserControl

  Hi all, I believe this question has came up in the past, and I wonder is there any change in status. This is about how VS 2005 designer reacts to UserControl that inherit from an abstract UserControl class.  The designer basically complaint when you try to edit the inherited form.  According to some early posting, this is a bug by design.  Is there a way to get around this problem   Thanks. Bill One or more errors encountered while loading the designer. The errors are listed below. Some errors can be fixed by rebuilding your project, while others may require code changes. The designer must create an instance of type 'CGS.WinUI.BaseUserControl' but it cannot because the type is de ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Injection attacks

  I am taking a class where the professor really dislikes using parameterized queries because he considers them to be pointless. Despite the many points that I and a classmate bring up, the only thing he considers valid is using them to prevent SQL injection attacks. To prevent this, he replaces all single quotes with a pair of single quotes. I know this works for SQL server, but will fail in some others (for instance MySQL also allows \'). Is there other possibilies such as the \' that need to be protected against Your professor is looking at parameterized queries backward. They should be the standard approach only abandoned with a good reason. First, by using parameterized queries you remove the need t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Mass Transitions

  Mass Transitions In our current workflow tool (i.e. Serena's TeamTrack) we have a concept of "Mass Transitions" where you can take a number of requests (e.g. 1000) and do a mass update to the work item states (or any other fields) instead of laboriously updating each work item. For example we have "Enhancement" work items that queue up in a "Code Complete" state. Once the build is deployed to QC (i.e. Test) we run the "Mass Transition" to update all work item states to "Deployed To QC." We can handle hundreds up updates with a simple "Mass Transition" and a cup of coffee. Does Team Foundation have a similar concept Mac Noland Two options here. Create a small util ...Show All

• SQL Server The REAL Warehouse Sample V6 database

  Regarding the code/db from the REAL project that just got released, I have no problem attaching the "REAL Sample V6" database, but the "REAL Warehouse Sample V6" database requires ENTERPRISE edition, because the default copy uses Partitioning (i.e. the PT version, although the document stated that the multi-table (MT) version is the default). I only have the STANDARD edition of SQL 2005, is there a workaround Appreciate any help.

• Visual Studio OLAP and ReportViewer LocalReport

  So far I have created an olap report that successfully connects to an olap database. In my Report Server Project I have a number of rdl report that have an SQL connections and are able to load up fine within the Report Server Project. I also have one rdl report that uses an olap connection that also loads up fine and I am able to view it in the Preview tab. In another project (ASP.NET 2.0) I am loading local reports onto the ReportViewer control. I am able to load up all the report with SQL connections just fine. My problem is that loading the olap report doesn't work. I dont get any error messages. I get an empty report. I then proceed to debug my way through and it looks like my datatable is filled with 6000 rows and 5 columns. Here is s ...Show All

• SQL Server Design advice for an education data warehouse

  I’m not sure whether this ought to be in the Architecture or SQL Analysis Services forum. I am after some initial advice about a suitable structure for a data warehouse which will be used to build OLAP cubes AS2005. I work in a county education department. Each year we create/update a set of reports and procedures which provide schools with online access to many of the statistics for their school compared to district wide and to national targets, etc. After this year’s, which is my second at creating these report/data, I can’t help but think that the whole thing is screaming out for a Data Warehouse and Cube data to report on.
