• SQL Server One large database or many small....

  Hi Experts We are debating what is best: 1. To combine all the company's data in one large database, and use schemas and file groups to create logical and physical distribution on drives and namespaces or 2. Distribute the data into smaller databases with related data - eg. products and product description in one db, Customers in another and orders and orderlines in a third db. Just what are the pros and cons regards Jens Chr In almost any case I would suggest one database. The ability to use foreign key constraints is enough right there. The only reason I would suggest many databases is if you might need to seperate them into different servers, but that is very seldom. It is just so much easier to wo ...Show All

• .NET Development My head spinning now - no solution yet (Need help calling a webmethod of a web service w/o any web reference)

  Need help calling a webmethod of a web service w/o any web reference. I created a web service with one web method in it with no parameters. It returns an XML string and I'm trying to get that XML string in a windows service (or may be simple c# function).

(fyi, it works fine when I call this web service in IE). Here's my code: ----- web service - start: -- ...Show All
