• Software Development for Windows Vista Microsoft Activesync will not recognize Office 2007 Beta

  I have currently upgraded my office 2003 to Office 2007 Beta and my activesync will no longer recognize that Office is installed and will, therefore, not sync my Outlook data. Has anyone else had this issue Any thoughts on resolutions to this I am using HP 6325 (Phone/PDA combo) with Microsoft Pocket PC Version 4.20.0 (Build 14350) I am having the same difficulty on a new Dell Axim X57v. Although ActiveSync recognizes when the PDA is hooked up to the laptop (Dell Inspiron 9300 running on Windows XP), it keeps telling me there is a synchronization error. When I run diagnostics, I'm told that ActiveSync requires Outlook 2000 or later. I have been running Office 2007 with Outlook 2007 with no other pr ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Datetime Variable perfoming >= instead of >

  The source table has timestamp column (Modified Date), which gets upated with each modification via an update trigger. I store the MAX(modifieddate) in a DeltaExtractionHistory Table in the staging database for each extraction or package execution. Then in the next run, I need to pick the coulmns that have a greater datetime, than the last extracted MAX(ModifiedDate) in the DeltaExtractionHistory table for delta processing. The OLEDB source has the following SQL statement: SELECT * FROM [dbo].[MyTable] WHERE [ModifiedDate] > with the following parameter: Parameter 0 : dtLastModifiedDate dtLastModifiedDate is an SSIS variable of type Datetime. I read the value of MAX(ModifiedDate) in this varia ...Show All

• Visual Basic Tabbed Browser - How to add new tabs?

  Hey, I'm trying to create a simple web browser that supports tabbed browsing. (That is, using to tabs to open multiple windows without launching the program multiple times.) I have everything except the actual tab part complete. I need to know how to add a tab and assign a web browser to it. I can get it to add the tab but assignning the browser as a child is beyond my knowledge. If at all possible a full example of a tabbed browser would be most effective for not only completing the task but also for me to learn how to do it. It that is not available any help would be just as highly appreciated. I am using a TabControl and a WebBrowser for controls and both seem to work correctly. Other than that there a ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. I can't find what I'm doing wrong!

  [EDIT]Well, I finally got it to work. What was wrong I don't know. I did get it to work simply by adding a weight variable into the vertex definition, but am not sure why, simply becuase that had not worked before (yes, I had defined them as 1 before). So, no more help needed, I guess... Perhaps you should start with the tutorials included with the DirectX SDK. The second Direct3D tutorial draws a triangle. The tutorials are located in yoursdkinstalldir \Samples\C++\Direct3D\Tutorials. ...Show All

• SQL Server Cannot Connect Remotely to HTTP EndPoint

  Dear all, I appologise that incarnations of this topic have been posted several times on this forum, however I cannot find a scenario that is the same as my own so I've resorted to starting a new thread. I can successfully create and connect remotely to an HTTP EndPoint on my Windows 2003 machine using Integrated security, the administrator username and password via my static IP address. I have read that Windows XP SP2 supports HTTP EndPoints, and it would be much more convenient for me to be able to create EndPoints in XP, and connect remotely. I have created the endpoint like so... CREATE ENDPOINT sql_tvr10 STATE = STARTED AS HTTP( PATH = '/sql/tvr10', AUTHENTICATION = (INTEGRATED), PORTS = (CLEAR)) FOR SOAP ( WEBMETHOD 'Stor ...Show All

• SQL Server Special/Foreign Language Characters Issue

  Hi,   We have a package that does a simple table to table data loading. Both source and destination have the same Codepage (850) and collation (SQL_Latin1_General_CP850_CI_AI). However, there are some foreign language characters in the source table, and it gets messed up when it's loaded into the target.   Here's an example for a column with this type of text:   Source: Solut§es Informst Target: Solu■oes Inform t   Both columns are char(30).   I have tried to load this row into another server in a different location and it works just fine, however the original target of data displays the text incorrectly.   I have no idea what can be causing this.   Thanks, ...Show All
