    Lost component references

    I'm an experienced programmer but new to VB. I inherited a project that I modified and have successfully compiled. I had to reboot my machine, now when I open the project it can't find references to ocx, dll etc. The directories it is trying to find them in are not what it previously looked in...

    Function Key Assignments

    I've inherited a VB app that opens a .hlp file when a user presses a 'Help' button. I need to change the name of the .hlp file but can not figure out where/how in the code this file is being opened. Code for button pressed just does a sendkeys {F1}. How are actions assigned to function keys?

    Error trying to connect via Enterprise Manager

    Get a 'General OLE Error 16386' when trying to connect to remote sqlserver 2000 from enterprise manager client. Yet I can connect just fine with utilities like osql or query analyzer. I've checked connect properties and they are correct. Worked fine up until a few days ago. Reboot didn't help.

    How can I print a blank page when reports ends on even page number

    Been messing with this for days now. Have two groups: inside group has a next page after which works fine. The outside group needs to print an additional page 'This page intentionally left blank' when the data for that group ends on a even page number. In other words, report must always end on...

    Conditional Formatting of Numeric Fields

    I'm trying to place either a '$' sign or append a '%' sign to numbers in a row base on the value of another field. I can conditionally get the '$' to display correctly using a formula, but have not found any way to conditionally append the '%' sign.

    How to use cursor variables, dynamic sql

    I have a procedure that needs to select/sort through a table 10 times. The only thing different in each select is the 'where' and 'order by' clauses. I need to use a cursor to process but don't want to duplicate processing code for each cursor ten times since the routine is the same for each...

    Do SPs have anything like Oracle's rowtype for cursors?

    SqlServer 2000. Is there a method to declare a variable of the name and datatype of each column in a cursor, like %rowtype or %type in Oracle? Can table variables be mapped automatically to cursors?

    Problem Importing Access tables via DTS

    Getting 'Workgroup file is missing or opened exclusively by another user' error when trying to use dts on access db. I can open the mdb just fine through access. It is on my machine so no one else could have it open. I close it before attempting the import. Any ideas?

    Setting Database Diagram Connection Points

    I'm trying to get the connectors in my ERD to locate next to the fields they refer to; primary key to foreign key. Right now they just hook to the middle of the entity or some arbitrary point. Whenever I try to move them I lose the relationship. Tried creating connection points, but still...

    Sql Server Editions - Standard vs. Enterprise

    Any good places to find objective comparisons, besides microsoft. Don't need failover/clustering or more than 4 cpus. Had read that standard edition does not allow concurrent full table scans. Any performance differences? 15-25 users, 750meg database, 50 tables. Heavy query, light update, OLAP...
