• Visual Studio Help Files

  Found this guide http://support.businessobjects.com/documentation/product_guides/cr_net/vs_2005/ but i know there is an offline download of this as a .chm file but i've lost it. Can anyone point me in the right direction Cheers Hey Neil, If memory serves, we offered a CHM download during the VS 2005 Beta 1 and Beta 2 previews. As of the Visual Studio release, the offline help is available as part of the Visual Studio help system. The easiest way to invoke the Visual Studio help system is to open VS2005, and press F1. At that point, you can find the Crystal Reports help by expanding: Development Tools and Languages >> Visual Studio >> Tools and Features >> ...Show All

• SQL Server SQLCMD Batch File with script in batch file

  I am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express: sqlcmd -S (local)\SQLExpress -i C:\CreateDB.sql This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive.

• SQL Server Stored Procedure Update parameters question

  I just posted a question on WHERE clause impotence in SELECT command, I mean in my setting. It obviously should work on a global scale and now I have a problem with UPDATE command WHERE clause. I am talking about a different SP now. It is supposed to update a record in a table. Anyhow, the procedure did NOT seem to execute properly (did not update the record) when called from C# code but when I tried to exec it in the server it finally did work but raised a problem of safeguarding the unused parameters . I do not need to update all columns in every call to the SP that uses UPDATE statement. Some parameters are left the way they are. I found out that if I ignore them they are set to default values which is NULL for DateTime. It ess ...Show All

• Visual Studio Is there a VSIP interface instead CommandEvents class?

  Hello, I am developing a VSIP package and I need to be notified when particular command ("Edit.Undo" for example) executed. In add-in I used EnvDTE.CommandEvents class for that. Is there a VSIP interface which provides the same functionality (BeforeExecute and AfterExecute) events Thanks. Hi Mishazh, IOleCommandTarget is the interface you're looking for, if you're attempting to intercept this command. You can also still use the EnvDTE automation stuff to set up BeforeExecute and AfterExecute events. You just need to call QueryService for the DTE service. If your writing a managed package, you just need to call DTE dte = (DTE)GetService(typeof(DTE)); from your VsPackage object. ...Show All

• SQL Server AMO: Enumerate Calculated Members?

  Hi, Apologies if I'm missing something obvious here. I'm trying to enumerate the calculated members in a cube using AMO (as part of programmatically building perspectives), however I can't see an easy way to do this. The collection of CalculationProperty objects on the cube's MdxScript object(s) would seem perfect (and indeed works for Adventure Works), but for my own hand-built cubes this collection is empty; CalculationProperty settings don't seem to be exposed anywhere in the BIDS UI so I assume they can only be set programmatically, which is of no particular use to me in the general case when operating on potentially manually-produced cubes. Aside from using CalculationProperty the only way I can see to do this within AMO would be to p ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Problem with Microsoft Office Web components

  I am using Microsoft Office PivotTable 11.0 and Microsoft Office Chart 11.0 in my VFP 9.0 form. When I try to change 'DataSourceType' property of chart control to any value I get the message: 'OLE error code 0x8002000e: Invalid number of parameters.' I need to change this property to 3 because I want to dynamicly bind chart control to pivot table. Any help Thanks! I have checked the article that you point me to. It is suggested that the problem is in incorrect version of atl.dll file. But my version of atl.dll (3.5.2284.0) is newer than the version mentioned it the article (3.00.9435). So I still have the problem, but thanks again anyway! ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Backup hangs, server freezes

  We have SQL 2000 running on Server 2003. The server has 4 GB RAM, RAID 1 and has the /3GB switch in Boot.ini. We have 6 databases, the largest is about 14 GB. Until recently I could use Enterprise Manager to perform database backups to a folder on the same server but now the operation fails. After selecting the location for the backup and clicking OK, the hard drive light comes on but goes out after 15 - 30 seconds. The progress bar does not move. I've waited and waited but nothing further happens and the server doesn't respond. The only solution is to push the power button and let the server re-boot. Very occasionally the backup will run for a minute or two and the progress bar might get to about one third of the way across, (in which cas ...Show All
