    SQL Slow to start when rebooting server

    I'm having a problem with SQL 2008 taking ages to make the databases available. Master, model etc are available very quickly, but the rest of the databases can take nearly a minute to accept connections. This means that an application on the server that needs to connect to the server won't...

    Locking images stored in repository

    CR XI R2 with BO XI R2 SP4 I'm trying to store images in the repository - easy enough. However, I also need to lock their position on the page. It appears you can't do both! If I lock the image before adding to repository, it doesn't think it's been added (no disconnect option). If I add to...

    Index ordering

    Probably a dumb question, but this has been bugging me. When you create an index, you get the option to set the Sort Order. I'm happy with how this affects the creation of the index. Does this have any implication for performance, and if so, in what situations? In fact, does it have any...

    Defining keys for object with complex key

    In my DB, I have SiteName, with PK consisting of both SiteID & RegionID, both numeric. How do I define this as the Primary Key in Universe Designer? If I click Detect, it only finds RegionID (wrong), but I'm not sure how to add both. Thanks Andrew

    Average of non-zero values in a cross-tab

    First the report has to be a cross-tab as there are a variable number of columns and rows. Tried to persuade the customer to set a limit to the columns, but no joy. Have a cross tab with the grand total of some rows being summed, others averaged - using display string to display the final...

    Crystal/BOE XI R2 WinForms and VMWare 6

    I hope this will save someone the pain I've just been through. All my development work is done using VMWare Workstation. I upgraded to Version 6 at the weekend. Continuing work on Monday, I find that my Windows development using C# 2005, BO XI R2 and WinForms doesn't work properly any more...

    DateTime when report last modified

    I'm querying the CMS to try and find out when an rpt was last modified.Doesn't appear to be possible. I can get: 1) SI_CREATION_TIME - the time the object was created. (not modified) 2) SI_LAST_RUN_TIME - time last run - obviously wrong. 3) SI_UPDATE_TS - looked promising, but it's only when...

    Setting flashvars in swf embedded in swf using Javascript

    I'm setting and reading flashvars from javascript. All works well, but now I have a swf inside another swf. Using SetVariable only sets the variable in the container swf, and I need it in the inner one. I'm using Xcelsius to generate the swf, so I'm pretty limited on what I can do, so it all...

    JSP for .Net developer - book recommendation please.

    I'm experienced in .Net development - ASPX and VB.Net mostly. Done a bit of Java in the past. I now need to do some jsp work. Can anyone recommend a suitable book that builds on existing .net knowledge? I'll probably be using Tomcat, but not worried about the app server side of things, just the...

    Tree View not showing scroll bars

    I'm using a treeview to list folders and files - no problem. I populate the view in formload. Vertical and horizontal scroll bars don't appear even though the content is wide and long. They still don't appear if I resize the window small. I've tried deleting the other controls on the form, but...

    Hiding list items

    I've written a little code to allow list items to be collapsed then shown again as needed. If I initialise the page by hiding everything except the top level, nothing appears on clicking. If I comment out the init code everything works fine with the list appearing and disappearing when clicked...

    CrystalReportViewer - COM - Event Handling

    I'm trying to intercept the export event in Crystal Enterprise in the report viewer. There is an event onToolBar command that fires, but the help file only says: 'Since ASP scripting does not support events, you will need to write a small COM control to intercept the events. The COM control can...

    Task manager tray icon not visible

    When I start Task Manager, I don't get the CPU utilization icon in the system tray. If I minimize Task Manager, it doesn't appear. I have hide when minimized turned on, but there don't appear to be any other settings that would impact this. Any ideas? Thanks Andrew Andrew Baines Chase...

    Update many database connections

    Crystal used to provide a little utility - update70.exe then update8x.exe to update various properties of reports. There doesn't seem to be a version for 9 - has anybody seen one? It would be pretty easy to write, but need to save the updated report and the license gets tricky at that point...

    ItemSend event - getting the senders account

    Outlook 2003. I have multiple email accounts in one install of Outlook (pretty normal). For one of the accounts, when I send email I want to automatically bcc some colleagues. I'm using Application_ItemSend with VBA to do the code. The bit I'm struggling with is detecting which email account I'm...

    CE runtime install

    I have an VB6 application that uses the CR runtime - no problems. It accesses reports stored on a CE9 server - no problem, just use the enterpriseControls.dll, infostor.dll and friends. When I write the install routine, the CE dlls will not register. This then throws errors when I try to use CE...

    PC133 DIMMS in PC100 Motherboard

    My motherboard, an old MSI MS-6167 support PC100 RAM. I was under the impression that I could use PC133 RAM, but it would only work at the lower speed. I've bought a couple of DIMMS of PC133 (256MB each). It's detected by the BIOS in the power up and appears to work until Windows 2000 Server...

    I'm currently using and ADSL modem on my PC with a laptop connected using an ethernet crossover cable. Internet connection sharing works OK (well, most of the time!). I'm looking to replace the crossover with a wireless network so I can work in the garden. The laptop already has wireless. Can I...

    File information on open files - DSOfile.dll can't!

    I'm using DSOFile to retrieve document properties such as revision number. This works well, but now I need to read the properties of files that are currently open.
