• SQL Server Login failed, user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection

  I set up SQL Express and Visual Studio Team System for the first time yesterday. I created a web service (on my localhost IIS) and added an MDF file to my App_Data folder. I added a table with five fields. I'm trying to connect to the database in my web service, but when my web service gets to the connection line it returns the error System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. When I add in my domain name and password to the connection string I get the error System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'redmond\danmor'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. I've queried these SQL forums, and the advice is u ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Beginner's Question - Computed Column

  I'm currently writing an app in VB Express. One of the VB modules is a timesheet where I have to subtract "finishtime" from "starttime". I created a computed column in SQLExpress that accomplishes this, but of course updating the table from my frontend causes an exception.  I know within SQLExpress this can be worked around by running the update twice. Question: Should I place computed columns in a seperate table that is not updated or Stuff programming protocol and not handle the error and just run the update query twice from the frontend or A suggestion of your choice, please be nice, a novice SQL user here. I don't particularly want to have to do the calculations each time the data is downloa ...Show All

• .NET Development Remoting serialization question

  I have a very simple type called TypeA that contains a property on it called Prop1 of TypeB. I've decorated Prop1 with both SoapIgnore and XmlIgnore however every time I make a call to a singleton MBR type, I get an exception from SoapFormatter telling me that TypeB isn't decorated with [Serializable]. Do I have to decorate TypeB w/ Serializable even though I don't want it included in the serialization of an instance of TypeA Thanks! Hi As I understood, you should use the attribute NonSerializedAttribute, and you should apply this attribute to fields not to properties. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Thread Missing

  Hello All, Does the moderater removes any threads I posted a question on FILEDESCRIPTOR structure and it is missing now. What would be a probable reason for removing the thread Thanks, There is a number of reasons for a thread being deleted. The most common one is being an off topic specially if it is a general win32 API programming issues and not VC++ specific. I will search the deleted threads and bing it back. Hopefully it is not an off topic one. Thanks, Ayman Shoukry VC++ Team ...Show All

• .NET Development How to configure a channel for RemotingServices.Marshal(o)?

  Hello again! This code works fine: TcpServerChannel ch = new TcpServerChannel(50000); ChannelServices.RegisterChannel(ch, false); ObjRef r = RemotingServices.Marshal( myChipReader, settings.RemoteUri, typeof(IRemoteChipReader)); But I'd like to take the part of creating and registring the channel in the app.config file. So I tried: <configuration> ... <system.runtime.remoting> <application> <channels> <channel type="System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Tcp.TcpServerChannel" port="50000" /> </channels> </application> </system.runtime.remoting> </configuration> But it doesn't work :( I tried to find out in the MSDN documentation (remoting scheme) ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How similar is this to DirectX?

  I started Windows programing two days ago...but I'm used to programming on other systems. Anyways, the lack of docunation for the xna framework sucks and I was wondering how similar it is to another doc so I can work with that Could I be able to read tutorials online dealing with DirectX and apply them to XNA Kind of. XNA is obviously driving the same underlying hardware as native DirectX, and many things are identical because of that (for instance the functionality of the various renderstates, and the HLSL shader programming language). So tutorials for things like "how does the graphics card work" and "how do I write shaders" will be very applicable. But our API is quite dif ...Show All

• SQL Server displaying null value as $0.00

  I have a field that is typically a currency amount but in some cases is actually a null. Is there a way to format the field in order to get the null to display as $0.00 Or, to set up the field as a formula using an IIf statement. SQL RS does not seem to recognize the isnull function.... thanks! Martha There are a few ways to get this to happen.

• Visual C# Domino/Lotus Notes automation problem: _COMPlusExceptionCode = -532459699 error

  Hi I'm sending email using Lotus Notes by referencing "Lotus Domino Objects" (v1.1) via COM in C#. This has been working successfully on my machine for several weeks (both in the ide and compiled versions). However this is not working on several machines in production. I keep getting a _COMPlusExceptionCode = -532459699 error. The exception is thrown whenever I try to create the NotesSession Domino. NotesSession notes = new Domino. NotesSession (); The Notes client is installed on all of the target machines. It would seem to be an environmental problem, but I've spent the last few hours scouring the net for an answer and am still no closer to a solution. Has anyone come across this before Thanks in adv ...Show All
