• SQL Server SQL Express and SQL 2005 developer edition on same machine

  Hello, I am wanting to setup both SQL Express and SQL 2005 developer edition with visual studio 2005 professional on the same machine and want to make SQL dev edition the default local accont to where I can set the sql connection to server=localhost. Is there a way to do this Thanks When you install the systems you are able to install the systems using named instances... I would install the dev install as the local (Default Instance), this should be done as the default install parameters. In regards to SQL Express the default install installs as a named instance called ".\SQLEXPRESS". Whith the above settings you will be able to install both together, as this is what I have done....

• Visual Studio SSH connection doesn't allow using VS custom project

  Hi, Our integration implements our own project system. All works fine while you are working using private access to ssh server. In case of usage of public access (when ssh server doesn't require password for log in) the following command fails: devenv /Build my.sln Error message says that our project type is not supported because of package load failure and suggest running devenv /resetskippkgs. What is the possible reason for this Thanks in advance, Vadim. Hi Vadim, There are many potential reasons for a package load failure, although you will need to attach a debugger to devenv while it is doing the build to nail the reason down. Is your project system/package attempting to p ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies PARTIAL SOLUTION

  Hi, I have search everywhere for a solution and still I do not seem to find a solution. Outlook is not finding any emails (instant search). I think it is not really indexing anything. Vista search works perfect (seems like it). The index says it is done (outlook is included on it) As I receive emails, the list of pending items to index just grows and grows. I am using pop accounts not exchange. (I already checked the instant search options, the indexing thorugh control panel). Any ideas. I spent the last two weeks searching for a solution, and I have read and follow the suggested solutions from microsoft, but still is not really finding anything.. so frustrated!. Thanks for reading this, and I hope somebody can help me ou ...Show All

• Visual C# Why do we need Interfaces?

  Hi, I am not able to understand the significance of the interfaces. Interfaces exposes some behavior through methods, but classes can also expose its behavior through public methods directly, then why do we want to use the interfaces is it just for an assurence that all the methods in the interfaces are inplemented in the class Is there any other reason like performance I guess interface object will/can not be created at runtime, is it correct if so then how does the communication happen at runtime any thoughts/links to understand "what an interface is ".

• Windows Forms Check if the database must be saved when you close a C# form (with bound controls)

  Hi, I’m writing a C# program that interfaces with a SQL Server 2005 database (I use Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition as compiler). I have defined the classical ADO.NET SqlDataAdapter, DataSet and DataTable objects so that, once the database has been loaded with the SqlDataAdapter Fill method, you work with the data off-line. I would like to put a control in the Form OnClosing event handler method: if there are some changes pending, there should be a MessageBox that asks the user if he wants to save the changes; otherwise (no changes pending), the Form closes without warnings. The only way I have thought to do that is the following: protected override void OnClosing(System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) { Base.O ...Show All

• .NET Development Connection Pooling not working

  I have a form that has a number of database calls. It does these sequentially. In some cases it's not possible (due to archetecture more than anything) to make these calls all on the same connection. However it does open then close the connection. (all connections created are in using statements) What I'm seeing is that we're getting a timeout when the 100 connection limit is hit. Looking at Activity Monitor I can see these connections growing and growing over time in the activity monitor the more windows you open and close even though these connections are closed. (and they all use exactly the same connection string) data source=(Local);initial catalog=Evolution;password=dyknalna;user id=EvolutionUser;Connection Timeout=20; I read ...Show All

• Visual C++ Event Confusion!!

  Hi all, I'm pretty new to the world of VC++ programming and I'm trying to implement a mousemove event on a picture box on a dialog. I can get the MouseMove event to fire if I add a message map etc to the dialog cpp file and header, but when I add a picture box, there doesn't appear to be a class file to add any code to for the MouseMove event. I'm a little confused, if the code goes in the Dialog cpp and header how do I tell it that it's the picture box I want the event to fire on and not the dialog box Please someone help, I'm totally confused. Cheers Pete Add picturebox control to the dialog template. Create control variable for it. In VS 2005 you need to right-click picturebox and select "Add cont ...Show All

• SQL Server Problem of adding trusted accounts to reporting services: 'Some or all identity references could not be translated'

  Hi I created a new database called "TestReportServer" as mentioned in the installation instruction but I didn't see (or could select) the option "Create the report server database in SharePoint integrated mode". How can I select this option Do I need to remove the reporing services and reinstall it again Any suggestions After creating the database I get the error 'Some or all identity references could not be translated'. The user I selected is a local administrator and has permission to all groups starting with wss. I guess the database is not created as a sharepoint integration mode as I can start Server Management Studio and see the database. Is that a correct assumption I hope somebody out there can he ...Show All

• .NET Development metaclass/class references

  Hi, I'm in the process of learning c#, but i'm getting the hang of it pretty fast. The problem is documentation. I've read up on C# reflection, and i'm already using it, but there are certain things which aren't stated. For instance, my issue is that of class references. How do you do such in C#. Like for instance, delphi: <code> {* class reference declaration *} TDBObjectClass = class of TDBObject; {* Method returns the remotable object for a given class type...the method here is a class funciton *} TDBObject.GetRemotableClass(aClass: TDBObjectClass):TRemotable; begin ..... end; </code> What is most IMPORTANT about my question is the fact that I am not concerned with the Dynamic creation of the class us ...Show All

• SQL Server 64Bit - How to set maximum memory

  I installed SQL2005 x64 as the default instance on a clean install of Windows 2003 64Bit Standard on a machine with dual 64Bit AMD processors and 4GB RAM. When I bring up the server properties in SQL Mgmt Studio, it shows "Microsoft SQL Server Standard Edition (64-bit)", Platform=NT AMD64, 4GB RAM. But the rest of the properties show as if it were 32-bit. It shows 4 processors instead of the actual 2. In the memory page of the instance properties, it shows the AWE box ready for checking and the maximum memory listbox will not allow a value more than 2GB, as if it were SQL2000 standard. Is there something else I need to do to make the SQLServer 2005 instance realize it is really SQL2005 and 64-bit and it can address RAM above t ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. A Few Questions

  I've been programming for a while, but I can't grasp a few basic concepts of game development, so I have a few questions (actually a lot of questions, but i'll only ask a few) I see a lot of documentation talking about 3D stuff, but I'm interested in 2D and it's hard for me to relate 3D tutorials to 2D. What exactly is the SpriteBatch class, and how should it be used Would I derive an "enemy" class from SpriteBatch I don't understand the way a "camera" works.. if you move a camera, is the actual camera moving or are all the sprites moving Do I have to move them manually OK, here's some code from the Help file I told you about: partial class Game1 : Microsoft.Xna.Fram ...Show All
