    Error connecting to SQL databse

    Here's some very general possibilities: Did you try putting the above code I mentioned in your page? Does it return a valid username? Does this username have the proper permissions to log onto the database? What about trying another username? Have you ever successfully connected to a SQL...

    Error connecting to SQL databse

    Just guessing, but...something may be wrong with your username. What is the name of the account you're logged on with? Is it in the format of domain\username? You can verify your credentials by including the following in your page or code-behind: string UserName = User.Identity.Name...

    Error connecting to SQL databse

    Are you using Windows Integrated Security (passing to SQL Server the username/password that you are logged on with) or SQL Server authentication (a hard coded id/password in your connect string)? Assuming that you do have the proper permissions to log onto the SQL Server DB and that you're...

    Institutional Investors...mutual fund companies own significant percentages of company stock that could indeed make a difference in the decisions of executive management. Who owns these mutual fund shares? Small investors…many “little” people own mutual fund shares directly in individual...

    OPEIU Union for IT Folks?

    The driving force behind this IT exodus, as we all know, is greed and the desire to make more and more money no matter the cost to the community and the stakeholders. By stakeholders, I mean the employees of the company, the surrounding local businesses and shops; in other words, all the people...

    There are two existing organizations I can think of... Information Technology Association of America (ITAA) and Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP) From my knowledge, the ITAA is an association/union for industry employers and vendors. They lobby Congress, in the name of...

    KornGeek: Right you are, but in mutant's defense, sometimes it's much easier said than done, especially in today's economy. We're not just experiencing an IT slowdown, but a broad economy slowdown that crosses into almost all industries.

    Chris: Unfortunately, I can't confirm what the Soviet Union did or did not claim for its people. I don't believe there's much relevance in comparing what happened in the Soviet Union to what's going on today with many U.S. companies shifting their operations overseas. Economic isolation sounds...

    So what would you suggest as a solution? It's easy to just say "getting the federal government involved will not solve anything", and not provide an alternative response to such an alarming trend. The United States of America is a nation of laws...laws we all agree as a society to...

    ctarr: Thanks for posting this excellent, yet very alarming article. For all those who didn't read it, here are a few worthy excerpts: [At Microsoft]But of late, he says, he often hears the phrase, “two heads are better than one,” bantered about, meaning that two Indian developers can be had...

    tjd: So in your opinion…if a person does not run his/her own business, they’re not worth their salt? Can this be further translated into if a person is employed by someone other than themselves, they’re no good? You did say Good ones run their own business, or if they are working for someone...

    OPEIU Union for IT Folks?

    This thread has evolved quite a bit...probably a lot more than the original poster expected. With that being said, below is an excerpt from a letter that was sent on my behalf to the SEC secretary. It is most certainly related to our union discussions during the last few months. As a small...

    OPEIU Union for IT Folks?

    Hey tjd, What about airline pilots? They have a union. Do you consider them professionals? I hope so--because we trust them with our lives many, many times a day. A union is simply a way to stop one group of people (those who control the purse strings--aka management) from taking advantage of...

    link to local or network mapped disk dont work in Mozilla

    adm, Did you ever figure this out? I also cannot point to a file on another server [a regular file server] from a web server. This appears to be a bug in Mozilla---related to bug 70871.

    Ctarr, I can understand why you feel a Union is unnecessary in your case. What is the point of having one if they cannot negotiate anything above and behind what the County Council determines? However, I will say that just because the Council currently has final say in what you and your...

    I know that this thread is almost a month old, but I just wanted to thank bludonda for his insight on a issue that confronts all IT professionals. One thing he said that really hit hard was... What I think we might be seeing though, is a developing trend that may make the "technology...

    validation for spaces

    Sorry Troll... I went back and retested your function and realized I was using var space='\t\n\r'; and NOT var space=' \t\n\r';...I left out the space before \t. Your function catches blank spaces just fine. I could have saved myself a headache if I would have noticed this last Friday. Oh...

    validation for spaces

    Only a single space...what happens if the user hits the space bar more than once? The function may disallow one space, but accepts two or more as valid input (at least that's what happened when I tried it). Please don't misunderstand my intentions though...your post was still very helpful.
