• .NET Development Database "design" question

  Hi, we are working on a programm that uses a database comparable to a movie-database. Theres a table with all films. Each has an englisch name and sometimes there is a german, italian, spanish, ... translation. We think that it is the easiest way to use the englisch name (which every film has) as default name to add a column for every other language that may occur (that might be about 8). As result we will have ca. 70% empty entries in these 8 rows. But this shouldnt be a problem because we use VARCHAR as type and sql querries only use the default language-column and the column of the language the user wants. Do you think this approach is ok There will be arround 50000 entries in our database. Our should the language translation be seperat ...Show All

• SQL Server Viewing- VS Development Security

  Hi everyone I am having some difficulty getting the security on the Report Server to function correctley. Here's what's happening: I log onto Report Server using a certain account. This account is linked to a security role on the cube and to a certain company code within the cube. After building a report in Report Builder using this account and deploying it, I then run it from Report Server. It only displays the values in the parameters that are allowed for this user that I have logged in with. This is correct. However when I open BI and build a report and deploy it, the security settings on Report Server no longer take effect correctley. The parameter dropdowns are left empty where a certain company code should be. Does a cert ...Show All

• .NET Development jscript event handler

  I have an existing html page that works well in a Visual Studio 1.2 ASP.Net project. When I included the page in a Visual Studio 2.0 web application I recieved errors on all my event handlers.

• SQL Server Transaction Option Problem

  Hi all, I have a slightly strange problem involving required transactions not working as i believe they should. My package as it stands loops through a directory of directories. In each of the directories there are two files (1 x .XLS, 1 x .CSV). For each directory i have to access the excel spreadsheet and extract data from two work sheets and insert that data into a database (2 tables, one for each worksheet). What i'd like to do is to place a transaction on the dataflow that processes the excel worksheets so that if either fails it will roll back and not update the database. From this point i can then copy the directory to a Quarantine path. I have set up the data flow with transaction option = supported and it does what it is meant to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System FXCop cannot load my dll

  Hi, I have a problem with loading my application into FxCop. Actually, the problem had been discovered by Veritest, to whom we submitted our app for testing, but I reproduced it here. They used earlier versions of FxCop, but 1.35 gives the same result: When I try to open my application in FxCop, it gives me identical error messages about each and every dll and exe in the folder.

• .NET Development Missing entrypoint in MSCOREE: 'GetTokenForVTableEntry'

  Hi, I am calling an extended stored procedure from with in SQL Server 2000/ MSDE and on the odd site they are reporting the error message: Missing entrypoint in MSCOREE: 'GetTokenForVTableEntry' I think it has something to do with the version of the .NET framework they have installed, but I have no proof. After searching the web I was unable to find any useful information about this error or MSCOREE. Does anyone know the cause of this problem and the likely resolution Thanks, Matt if the .net 1.1 framework was in use when you installed .net 2.0, the installer would have been unable to replace the mscoree.dll.
