    WIA Automation on XP. Can't Delete Photos off Device.

    Hi, I have a Kodak CX4210 camera. Connecting it to XP, it uses the XP Windows Image Aquisition 2 Drivers to connect. But the camera does not support the command DeleteAllImages. And this appears to be the only way to delete images programatically from WIA Automation in VB6. Does anybody know...

    Sounds like an FAQ to me... Thankfully our JET days are long gone. Just not quite long enough yet. Ta, J.

    How to Check for updates?

    Yes, that SP would do it and it contains it's own proof that it will work as well. This will be usefull for critical situations. However for more mundane situations, to prevent the creating of many SPs we have this working situation. We think. I've only tried it once. A Resordset is opened as...

    How to Check for updates?

    Hi, We develop multi user data access systems based on VB6, ADO(2.6), OLE DB provider for SQL Server and SQL Server 2000 Here is the situation. A recordset holding a single record is opened client side and the connection to the database is tempClosed, no locks are held. The operator then...

    Can you create non-unique Indexes on UDF returned tables?

    Well, according to the true Execution plan in Query analyzer, the udf generated table is used on the bottom half of a nested loop join, even though that is a fairly bad decision. If I could get a clustered index on the udf table or temp table, it would use one of those good joins, not hash, not...

    Can you create non-unique Indexes on UDF returned tables?

    Temporary tables which can't be used in UDFs right? I tried that first and it complained. :( Ta, Jim.

    Can you create non-unique Indexes on UDF returned tables?

    I can create PKs and Unique Clustered and Non-clustered indexes on multi line udf's But I'd like to create a non-unique clustered index for the table that is returned as it is then joined to several other tables. I can't do: CREATE CLUSTERED INDEX ON tblOut (ColumnName) it throw invalid use...

    Can the number of stored procedure parameters be variable?

    What do you need all 2100 parameters for? Creating a where clause? Tell us more about the sproc and we might think of a better way of doing this. Jim.

    How can I mass edit DEFAULT constraints?

    Hi, We screwed up (actually Alex did) Our All-In-One Wonder Database building/upgrading tool has gone a bit rogue and has created every NVARCHAR column with the DEFAULT contraint of (N'#BLANK#') due to a bug. But nobody noticed and one of the clients is live ¬¬; Does anybody know where that...

    Text doesn't fit the text box when printed, but does in the Design

    That's with any printer driver we use, although they are both HP Laserjets... Yes, generally we find that fonts that are cut off when viewing the report at <200% print out fine. This has always been our rule of thumb and I design the reports at 200%. But in the last report I designed some of...

    &quot;Estimated Execution Plan&quot; I just don't get it.

    Hurray! Thanks! I shall read these forthwith. :) You do all your queries in QA? Don't you find it time consumig typing table and field names? Not to mention remembering them all, I could never do that. &quot;Statistics IO and Time&quot; I don;t understand what you meant by that though. Just...

    Lots of Crystal DLLs. I need an explanation of them all!

    Yeah, tell me about it... ¬¬ But we've beaten 7 into something pretty damn decent now that we've lobotomised most of it's 'features' I was hoping not that support has stopped, somebody had written a definitive DLL/EXE list for crystal7.... I've read a guide about the definitions of the DLLs...

    Text doesn't fit the text box when printed, but does in the Design

    Ah, but that stil doesn't get round the problem of the text not scaling correctly with the Zoom factor, does it? As I said, the report looks fine at 200% and awful at 100% and somwhere in the middle when printing. Is getting that right all just trial and error? Or is there a certain zoom I...
