• SQL Server Cannot run the script of SQL Server 2005 t0 SQL Server 2000

  Hi all, i have a database in SQL Server Express Edition. i generate the database script from the database>All Tasks>Generate script Option. That script is not running in SQL Server 2000. I set the property of the database to compitible with SQL Server 2000 and i also set the property when generating script for 2000 version. still i get the same error. Am i missing something. Please tell me how to do this Even with compatability level set down, you can't expect a script to be compatible if you used any SQL Server 2005-specific features.  You're going to have to do a find/replace and fix it up to get it working.  What errors are you getting   Remember: No ...Show All

• SQL Server How to merge data from two different rows

  Hi Guys, Can anyone please explain and show an example of how to merge data from one row to another using in SQL 2000 thanks in advance Raijan, If this doesn't fit your case, please be more specific about what you are trying to accomplish. The first thing I would look to do is pass outbound parameters rather than datarows, that is assuming that the two rows are from different tables as: CREATE PROCEDURE DemoProcedure @UserName nvarchar(15), @Password nvarchar(15), @FName nvarchar(25) out, @LName nvarchar(25) out, @Role nvarchar(25) out, AS BEGIN Declare @UID int SELECT @UID=UserID @FName=FName, @LName=LName From USERS Where UserName=@UserName and @Password=Pass END BEGIN SELEC ...Show All

• SQL Server Performance

  I am developing an application which uses SQL Server 2000 as database engine, all connections are made using "sa", and my sa password. My question is: I might have implementation for over 350 concurrent users, using the application at the same time. How can I verify that SQL Server will not face any performance issues Any particular specifications for the Server that SQL server will be installed upon should I use multiple File Groups, or seperate Log File on a Hard disk and Data file on another Hard disk Please if you have any documentation that provide real time performance testing of SQL Server with more that 350 users, it would be a great help. P.S: My database is small (about 130 tables), most of them are only listings (user ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Plain ContentTypeReader

  Hi I have been reading through the forum for hours now and there is something I do not quite understand: Any class that is required for readers comes from Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content.Pipeline. This library is not available for the Xbox 360, thus leading me to the conclusion that it is currently not possible to write a custom ContentTypeReader for the Xbox 360. Is that correct My other problem is that I do not want to write an importer as I use an application to compile my models. I only want to write a ContentTypeReader to load it into XNA at runtime. Is that possible without utilising the ContentTypeWriter.GetRuntimeReader function cheers Daniel I export an OBJ file from a 3d software. Then I use my ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Xbox 360 Guides in XNA

  Hi there, I've been playing around with the framework and I have a little question for any MSFTies who can answer. On the Windows side of things, if we want to call up any useful built in functions of Windows like say the common dialog box colour picker (for say, a player's car paint job) or a MessageBox (you've reached the end of the demo!), we can still do so by calling in to the Windows.Forms namespace. On the Xbox 360 side though, any such UI we would have to recoded manually. However, as we all know, there are certain built in elements of UI on the 360 too in the form of the various Xbox Guide slide out panels. Currently, access to one of these does exist in XNA (The save Location guide for letting the user choose a Memor ...Show All

• Visual C++ Opening multiple files in a single program instance

  This is something that is done millions of times every day... Using Windows Explorer you double click a file to open it, the associated program starts up and the file is opened, if the associated program is already running, then the file is opened in that (already running) instance of the program. Simple... However, I'm having trouble finding how to do this simple feat with VC++ 2005, CLR, CLI, .NET. What is the simplest "supported" way to do this Seems you are looking for solution for making your program a single instance one.

• SQL Server Tape not available as Backup Device

  I've got a new HP ML370 G4 Server 2003 SP1 with a fresh install of SQL 2005 SP1. I'm trying to create a backup device for the internal HP DAT 40 and tape is greyed out as an option. I have the newest HP software drivers and firmware. The tape drive is seen by Server 2003 device manager and by NTBACKUP. I can backup using that program. Why doesn't SQL 2005 see it I tried a new HP Ultrium tape drive with the same results. Anyone else see this and can recommend a fix TIA I am having the same problem. I tried your TSQL command and get the following error: Write on \\.\tape0 failed: 1117 (The request could not be performed because of an I\O device error) But NTBACKUP is working fine so I don't think it ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Connect to Lotus

  Hello On our server we have a lot of Lotus databases that we get information from. Now we want to make a small easy program to collect information like product and quantity on stock so our resellers can get the information as well but still not get all the information in that database. Is this possible How do i connect to lotus database I would really appreciate all help I can get. Thanks Rikard aka Biocide I suspect you won't be able to connect to it as a 'database' - it may well be a repository for data, but probably isn't considered a database as we know it: or the format is not well known. You will need to use the Lotus notes objects, I believe. You will have to investig ...Show All
