Fantastic replies all. I appreciate the help. I have a question though that is somewhat off topic, but a curiousity of mine. Can you add disks to RAID 5 (or 10) after creation? Or would you have to rebuild...

I need to upgrade my database server, and was hoping I could get a couple opinions from people here. Ok, I've got an 80GB Oracle9i database in my group that supports some 200 users and runs on Windows 2003 Enterprise. The server is a Dell Poweredge 6600 w/ dual 1.4 GHz processors, 4 GB DDR...

Our database server is consistantly using 70-100% of our processor time. Would anyone mind throwing out some ideas of how we might improve this? My specialty isn't Oracle, so forgive me if I make no sense. Our DBA is on medical leave, so I'm left with coming up with possible solutions to...

I'm reading into how to make a call to an Oracle stored procedure from ASP.NET, but there seems to be slim pickings on the subject.

Thanks, before reading your post I just went ahead and did this: Dim strInsert As String = "Insert into csc.mismgr_calls (caller, subject, comments) values ('" + myvar1 + "','" + myvar2 + "','" + myvar3 + "')" Is it better to use cmdInsert.parameters.add etc? Thanks again!

Okay, I suspect it is the '@' symbols screwing everything up and that is SQL server specific. Anyone know what syntax I would use to do this with oracle?

I'm new to asp.net and I'm trying to get the basics down. I want to insert a record to my oracle table. I can connect fine and bind to datagrids etc... but when I try the following insert code, it blows up. --------------------------- Dim conFIS As OleDbConnection Dim cmdInsert As...

Nothing... I'm at my wits end on this. I've done everything in the MS article, and even modified the registry as above, and I still get the same "Oracle client and networking components not found" error. I'm going to start setting this up on another server, see if there is just something...

Okay, I'm sure many people have seen this error. "Oracle client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation. Provider is unable to function until these components are...

Just noticed this old post of mine and thought I'd post the answer I found. Wizard based forms do not have portlet parameters that you can use in a page. You can build a form in a dynamic page and include a bind variable. Make the bind variable public (on one of the tabs when your creating...

Ok... I've bought all the necessary stuff... but I have one problem: One of our machines is an Oracle9i application server (apache http server w/ web based administration) running on Window 2000 Server. When I plug the box into my backup/storage network, all is well and I can backup just fine...

I am trying to number the rows I retrieve from a select statement but with a catch... I am grouping my results, and the numbering must restart with each group... ie Group A 1 Field1 Field2 2 Field1 Field2 Group B 1 Field1 Field2 2 Field1 Field2...

I have a multi-part form that consists of 3 pages(forms) which each save data to the session. When the final form is complete, I insert the session variables to the DB via a FINISH button. I now want to take another step. Page 2 of this multi-part form allows users to add "items". Presently...

Hi, I'm not very familiar with autoloaders so I was hoping someone here might provide me with some additional insight. Our IT needs just recently grew from 2 Servers (1 person) to 8 Servers. (All W2K) I will be needing to backup all of these systems, so here's what I was thinking: I'd rather...

Yeah, I got to that point... but I can't find a manufacturer SAG anywhere... any idea how I can determine what driver I need?
