• SQL Server Merge 2 columns from the same table

  Hi *, I have a table with 2 columns A1 and Firm. A1 holds "dirty data" and there are no NULL values. Firm holds "clean data" for some of the rows in A1 but not for all. So there are quite a few NULL values in this column. I want to replace the value in A1 if there is any data in Firm (value <> NULL). Rigth now, I solve this issue with a simple VB.NET script: Public Class ScriptMain Inherits UserComponent Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer) ' If Row.Firm_IsNull Then Row.Standard = Row.A1 Else Row.Standard = Row.Firm End If ' End Sub End Class Any ideas how to solve this issue without custome code Thanks! It sounds to me like you can use Derived Co ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Tearing my hair out over a LNK2019

  Ok, let me explain my sob story: I am working with the Intel Performance Primative trying to do an FFT as fast as possible. My original compiler was Metrowerks Codewarrior. After reading the IPP manual, I succesfully implemented the IPP code into a DLL using Codewarrior. It is pretty darn fast. After talking with a CS friend of mine, he recommended using the Intel Compiler for even faster code, which is a plug-in for the Microsoft compiler. So I installed my old copy of Visual Studio .NET 2003 C++ compiler with the Intel Compiler on top. Alright, now to the fun part. I use the EXACT same code that I used in Codewarrior, and the VC++ compiler refuses to link succesfully. My code is basically (by basically, I have left out a ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) No endpoint found.

  hi, I am getting the following error when i try to connect to the service running as a window service. The error is as follows : "no endpoint found on the specified address" Actually the service has some data contracts and also some database interactions. I am able to get the response when i just call a method that returns just a string but when i call the actual method that has the datacontracts and database interactions i am getting the connection error. For me to resolve the error i am not able to debug into the service running so that i am not able to locate the exact point where the exception is being raised. Thanks in advance.

• Windows Forms swap rows of a Datagridview!

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Business entity contstuctor never called

  We are working on a application that has the business entity classes on both the client and server in a WCF implementation. We used the svcutil.exe with a reference (/r) to the business entities to generate the proxy class for the client. We have a private dictionary to hold validation errors on the class and instantiate the dictionary in the constuctor. The IsValid method returns true if there are no errors in the error dictionary. The validation code in the setters checks the "value" and if it does not pass validation it adds a message to the error dictionary, if it does pass validation it removes errors from the dictionary if they are present. The problem that we are haveing is that the constructor is never called, so ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I wait for a flag?

  Hi, I am having a problem with my program. The program is intended to run three tests on a device. Each test uses the same program, but different parameters. The program reads data from 2 RS232 devices every 10 seconds, using a TIMER object. This same object calibrates the data, displays it, stores it to disk and tests against the test paramters. I start my program, having set the first set of parameters. I then start my TIMER and run code in the TIMER Tick event until a set of conditions apply. This may take between 15 minutes to several hours. When the correct conditions apply, I set a flag to show that the test has completed. I then change the test parameters and start again. My problem is how to wait for the first tes ...Show All

  I'm a new user to Visual C++. Once I've compiled and built a file how can i run it to see it in action Thank you.
