I would nope not. I would expect it would be related to how many are in any single spot, not how many in general. For instance, I have a tool we're using in the office. It has a folder structure it uses for storing contents. It uses 2 value hex 00-ff as a foldering scheme. Each one of these...

What about the limits on the numbers of folders on a volume?

are the maximum number of folders and files on a single logical volume? We want to take the content of a file share in the office (WIndows) and put it on an external hard-drive. It's all old stuff, but we can't afford to throw it away either. We want to make a couple o copies for safety...

Without going through some exercise to actually echo each character value to the screen that would be tough. I do happen to know that this is what the routine called does however. Having said that, I did get this working with some help from a person in experts-exchange. The answer was a...

...The issue is that the API I'm using needs to write into a buffer and it's going to write a 0 terminated string. This worked with VB and the String * 1000 declaration, but in VB.Net, I can't allocate space, without actually having content. The API is writing into that and returning fine, but...

I don't think that last one will work. I'll just end up with a string like I already have. I'll give them both a shot though.

...parameter and the result is written into a second. Prior to VB.Net the second string needed to be defined something like: Dim Result as String * 1000 This was necessary because the API "wrote" the result into the memory location provided. That's how it works. This type of declaration is...

We have a web site from which we need to generate "poor man's" reports. This site is IIS and currently with ASP. Our approach to this is to generate Excel and download them to the user. This is what we inherited. The data is being queried from a relational DB. The site is currently ASP...

I continue to have the following problem. I'm using Outlook 2003 on Windows XP. Our company servers are Exchange 2000. Fine so far. When I go to establish a partnership with my WM5 PDA I'm having the following problem. Upon first sync, all my personal address book entries are converted into...

Would anyone knokw how to migrate non-database objects in a SQL Server instance? We need to move about a dozen servers (with dozens of databases and packages, etc. in them) from SQL Server 7 to SQL Server 2000. We cannot afford to do this one-by-one manually with export and import. Moreover...

We don't want to backup/restore database-by-database. We know how to do that (as I said). We want to copy the contents of the entire server from the old to the new.

Help. We have about a half dozen SQL Servers with between 20-60 databases each on them. These are all SQL Server 7 (on NT) and we need to migrate them to SQL Server 2000 (not ready for 2005 yet) on Windows 2000/2003 (don't know which yet). We really (REALLY) don't want to export/import each...

Is it possible for one field in an MS Access table to be calculated from other fields in that same table (in the same row) like it is possible to have a field in an Excel spreadsheet be calculated from another field in the same row? We want/need to upgrade/uplift an Excel application that has...

It's this last bit, which is why MS Access is an issue. We're quite familiar with Relational databases. I've used them for > 15 years going back to vendors like Ingres, etc. all long gone. Unless we can use MS Access in such a dynamic way (the end users using it I mean), then it won't work...

We are not trying to use Excel as a database. The spreadsheet is a vehicle for "prepping" data for submission to a modeling/optimization tool. It so happens that creating the input data takes quite a bit of work as does prepping it. The spreadsheet is the tool for this final step, after which...

We've got an application that is very data heavy. This has been done in Excel 2002, where we have sheets for the filtering and processing of data to prepare it for optimization with a tool called GAMS. We've hit limits on this with the number or rows with which we can work given that each row...

I need to "send up" a complex XML structure to a SOAP request from a VB.Net program. It's also possible that we may need to do this from ASPX. Either way, the program or page is the client to the server that we have and to which we need to upload the data. The XML itself may have a couple of...

SQLBill Thanks. Somewhere along the way I started putting in the * and I don't recall where. Old habits die hard. Wo far as the the backups go, the situation is that we currently have 15,000,000+ documents. The company requirement is that for an enterprise system (such as this one), a full...

...take > 1 day (the files are directly on the file system and managed by Documentum). The additional question would be any experience in using SQL*Server to manage files stored in image fields and any resulting impact on data delivery. In other words, does storing images slow down all other...

...a middle man. It stores the documents and manages the full-text index, but relies upon a commercial database for the metadata (either Oracle or SQL*Server). We don't use full-text indexing on the documents in question, just metadata, but we also want to store the documents in "image" fields...
