• SQL Server Help: How to improve the speed of Sync.

  I have a table which has around 132000 rows with 24 columns. I use rda.pull download the data to PDA. For query these data, I must create a index on 5 character columns. The data download time is good enough, around 4 mins. But it takes 12mins to create the index. Please help to give me any idea on how to improve the whole synchroniztion speed. Thanks! If possible, make the colums shorter to decrease the index size. You could also consider createing the database file server side (including indexes), zipping and downloading, then unzipping on device. ...Show All

  How can we achive RoleBased Windows Authentication in VisualStudio 2005 without going for coding.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Tracking Schema reusability in Oracle

  Hi, I am working on a banking application and I am using Workflow Foundation for the development of a workflow subsystem. Our application is architected to work with any back end like SQL Server, Oracle etc. I used the tracking services and the supporting schema (tables and sp's) while developing on SQL Server. I was wondering whether the same tables and stored procedures can be ported into Oracle or not. If not, what is the way around. Do I write the schema myself. That would be a daunting task really. I am anticipated that the tables wont be a problem. Its the stored procedures that I am worried about. Any help would be appreciated. No, they can not be ported to Oracle and you will need to writ ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 table Partitioning

  Hi all, We are planning to use the SQL Server table paritioning in our project. There is a very large table storing 12 years of data. This table would have 25 million records with approx 2 million records per year. We are creating a index with below mentioned keys PK_ID (INT) Rec_CreateDate (Datetime) If we create horizontal partition based on the column Rec_CreateDate, I have the following questions. 1. Will this improve the performance of the DML queries on the table 2. Should I have the partitions on the same file groups or place in different file groups 3. Will the query performance improve only if I include the column Rec_CreateDate in the DML queries or the Pk_ID column itself is enough Also , ...Show All

• Visual Basic Dicom, GDI32 and VBS

  Hello First of all, I would like to say that I'm almost a newbie in VB and in advanced programming. So I apologize for that. Problem n°1: on a dedicated workstation, on which it exists a medical image viewer and other macros, In a macro that I have to modify, I will have to measure the distance between 2 pixels and report this distance into an array. Despite, there is a tool for making this measure, Its own source code is incorporated into a dll that is protected so I can't use the code for incorporating it into this new macro. So I want to use the gdi32.lib functions into the modified macro. My question is: Are these functions incorporated into the gdi32.lib, compatibles with medical images file formats (as *.dcm, *.img) or ...Show All
