Yes, shared memory is enabled, and yes, I've posted to the MS bbs. OK. I opened SSCM and changed the TCP Port field in IPALL to be 2433 (I also cleared the TCP Dynamic Ports field). I then rebooted the machine. When I logged back in, I disabled Norton A/V. I then tried to start the service...

I have followed the steps from several sites, including: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=914277&SD=tech http://www.datamasker.com/SSE2005_NetworkCfg.htm At this point, all I want to do is enable remote connections using TCP/IP (no pipes). When I do that, though, the server fails to start...

Hello. I have SQLEXPRESS 2005 installed on my laptop running Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. I have an application that can connect to the local instance with no problem. The other day, I tried to configure SQLEXPRESS 2005 for a remote connection from my desktop. To date, I have been unable to...

Thanks, chiph. 1. Do I need Visual Studio 2005 to use the .NET Framework 2.0? I've got a full version of Visual Studio 2003, and I was under the impression that 2.0 .NET was simply a download and VS 2003 would accommodate it. Is that not the case? 2. I can already tell that my learning...

Thanks so much, B00gyeMan! Do you have a C# book that you would recommend? I probably don't need a language book, but a somewhat more advanced book. But if there's a quick reference book of C# syntax, that might be nice to have. Again, I greatly appreciate it.

I am a programmer with 10 years of experience, primarily with C++. I have absolutely NO experience with the .NET framework. I am working on a brand new application in my spare time, and I want to embrace the .NET framework. I have a few questions and would appreciate any and all advice that...

Ah, yes. Couldn't see the forest for the trees. Thanks!

I discovered the same solution shortly after filing my post. Thanks. I did a little research online and discovered that references do not require storage. That's what surprised me about the case as described. Even though I had a reference member variable, it was not given a unique storage...

I've been programming in C++ for a few years now. I'm not intimate with the standard per se, but I understand, for the most part, how things work. I've hit a problem that simply has me perplexed. Create the following class. class Test { public: int _i; double &_d; Test(int...

Someone locally gave me some insight. Apparently, std::string has two buffers - one for dynamically-sized strings and one for small strings. This is for optimization purposes. The .NET debugger shows only one of these buffers; I think it's the dynamic one. So when you go from a 16+ character...

When I say "s is BAD," I mean that it contains garbage characters, not the assigned string as one would expect. Yes, I included <string>. It wouldn't compile otherwise, right? :) I've got access to a machine that still has VC++ 6.0, and I can't reproduce the problem there either. The...

I'm running MSVC++ .NET 2003. I've got a text file that I need to parse. I'm using std::getline, but I'm running into some problems with missing lines. Here's my code: std::ifstream infile("myfile.txt"); std::string line; while (std::getline(infile, line)) { // Operate on line...
