• SQL Server My questions

  I'm new for ssas and I'm studying NS samples,i found all the subscribers and subscriptions are created manully,my app have millions of subscribers and many different kinds of subscriptions,so how to create those objects through reading data from tables Much appreciate for your reply In SSNS 2000, subscribers, devices, and subscriptions have to be created using the SSNS API using a programming language like C#, VB.NET, or VBScript. In SSNS 2005, we know have some views that can be used to create those rows in the database. Here are a couple of links that may help. http://sqlns.blogspot.com/2005/10/creating-subscribers-in-2005.html http://sqlns.blogspot.com/2005/09/creating-subscribers-in-v20.ht ...Show All

• SQL Server WMI error (not install/uninstall -- performance monitor derived class)

  Trying to use WMI to monitor a SQLExpress DB and not getting anywhere. In fact, wmiprvse.exe croaks. Here's the query I'm running from within CIM Studio: select * from Win32_PerfRawData_MSSQLSQLEXPRESS_MSSQLSQLEXPRESSDatabases (Just did a search for SQL and found this class) When trying to get an instance, WMIPRVSE throws this exception: The exception unknown software exception (0xc000000d) occurred int he application at location 0x7814454d.

• SQL Server NTEXT special character "SQUARE" appearing where a return should be. How do I fix this?

  I had to import some FileMaker Data into SQL Server 2005 and in the resume field a "SQUARE" special character is appearing everyplace that a return should be. It has really messed up the formatting. I know how to use the updatetext in a cursor to replace the special character but I don't know what to replace the "SQUARE" special character with so the text is displaying a new line rather then this "SQUARE" character. Any help would be appreicated. Try replacing it with char(13) + char(10): replace(resumetext, char(1),char(13) + char(10)) This works: declare @test nvarchar(100) set @test = 'this is the character' + char(1) + 'this is a different line' select replace(@test, char(1),char( ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista WMI and Win32_DeviceChangeEvent

  Apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum to post on. If so, then please direct me to a better one. I'm having difficulty getting notification for the WMI event Win32_DeviceChangeEvent. Using the TempConsumer sample in the latest Windows SDK (Samples\SysMgmt\WMI\VC\TempConsumer), I modified two lines of code to be able to subscribe to the Win32_DeviceChangeEvent Line 169 changed from CBSTR Query(L "select * from MyEvent" ); to CBSTR Query(L "select * from Win32_DeviceChangeEvent" ); and line 239 from CBSTR(L \\\\.\\ROOT\\DEFAULT ), to CBSTR(L "\\\\.\\ROOT\\CIMV2" ), Compile the sample and run in Windows XP, then went to Device Manager and picked a device (in my cas ...Show All

• Visual Basic Visual Basic Visual Studio 2005 Debug.Write doesn't work

  I recently purchased Visual Studio 2005, and am trying to learn Visual Basic .net via an on-line class. Most of the less on s are very simple short programs to write messages to the Debug Output Window. For example: Public Class Form1 Private Sub Form1_MouseMove( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e _ As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Debug.WriteLine(e.X & "," & e.Y & " " ) End Sub End Class However, when I run it in Debug/Start Debugging, I see nothing at all appear in the Debug Output window. I asked the instructor about it, and he has no clue, but says the code works in VB 6. Does anyone know what might cause that David ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Some questions before I start learning XNA

  Hey forum peoples Im graduating soon from university and am hoping to get into game programming/design. Ive had telephone interviews with a couple of companys along with some CV assessments, and the gist of what they've been saying seems to be that I've got the skills, got the enthuisiasm, but don't have the experience (very few demos) and I was thinking of learning XNA to create some more professional code. Some questions though... Im not sure how this sounds, but how similar is XNA to flash/Actionscript Ive designed games for it before, and im fairly sure I can program my future game idea in flash, but how hard would it be to transfer it over How easy is it to design 3D models can it be done as part of the IDE or does it h ...Show All

• Gadgets Att MS gadget men: note 1.0.0.0

  Hi, like the small set of pre-loaded gadgets that come with Vista, but can't find 'Note' gadget on the gadget website. I would like to suggest a v2 feature: It would be great if the note gadget synced online to e.g. Hotmail note widget so that my PC would not have to remain on if I wanted to stream via rss the notes to my mobile. Because that's it isn't it -- no paper. For that I see the note gadget on the sidebar synching all new note online and in turn that being accessed by a mobile phone, also any notes made online sync back to the desktop gadget. I know it'll never happen but if you think about it that is what should happen. Samuel, UK Excellent idea, Wilbour. Yet another suggestion might be to allow for sizing. I'd love the u ...Show All

Free to publish free or commercial games on the XBox360 (XBLA, etc). Basically no restrictions except don't pass my code off as something you made :) Will LGPL do this I hear it's looser than GPL. The looser the better, methinks. wait, so you're saying that an xbox360 game project won't allow you to download a third party .dll (built as an xbox 360 game library of course), reference it, and deploy it Can we get someone from the XNA team to verify this ...Show All
