Hi I am trying to use a "from" schema and a "to" schema to transform an XML stream in unmanaged C++ using the MSXML3/MSXML4 DLLs. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks, Royce

Hi, I am using the GetSchemaTable() method of the C# .NET OleDbDataReader class to read the schema of an Access table. The following columns always have the same wrong values: AllowDBNull = True IsUnique = False IsKey = False IsAutoIncrement = False Why do these schema columns show the opposite values of what they should be? Any help appreciated, Royce

Gidon, Thanks for your help. I am a newbie to SQL (as you might have guessed), so maybe I misstated my problem. I am equating "data source" to "server", as described in the help for the SqlConnection class: Data Source -or- Server -or- Address: The name or network address of the instance of SQL Server to which to connect. So I want to find all of the servers on the current domain. Royce

Hi, How can I enumerate SQL data sources in my domain using C#? I found MS KnowledgeBase article 310107, but I can't get the code to even compile. Thanks, Royce

There is no error message or diagnostic of any kind. After having Outlook open (it doesn't matter if it is still open or not), I log into my workplace workstation. After just a few seconds, I lose the connection. The connection is not open long enough for me to do any work. Any ideas? Thanks, Royce

Hi, I am having a problem with Remote Desktop. I cannot use Remote Desktop after having Microsoft Outlook open. Anyone ever hear of this problem? Any help appreciated, Royce

Hi, The AssemblyInfo.cs file contains attributes, such as AssemblyVersion, which I want to use programatically, as in an About dialog. I have looked at the AssemblyVersionAttribute class, but I can't find any examples showing how to use it. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Royce

Hi, I would like to allow users of my ADO.NET application to browse through a list of the available databases on a given SQL server. INFORMATION_SCHEMA in SQL Server Books Online doesn't describe how to do this. How can I do this? TIA, Royce

Thanks, Colin. Yes, I think you have given me some useful ideas.

Hi, I am trying to use a class in multiple projects. It is a simple class containing properties of a given database table. The class, DbTable, is defined in my main DbCompare project. I also want to use this class in a Control Library (UserControl) project which will itself be used in the DbCompare project. However, I am in circular reference hell! When I build the DbCompare project, I get the warning 'DbCompare.DbTable' is defined in multiple places; using definition from 'D:\Proj_net\DbCompare\DbTable.cs'. Does anyone know how to do this? TIA, Royce

Hi, I have two datagrids on a WinForm. I want to keep them synchronized so that when the user scrolls one of them, I can programmatically scroll the other one an equal amount. The datagrid is new to me. How can I do that? Royce

Mayur, Yes, please post your code. I have never tried what you are talking about. Thanks, Royce

No, but it indirectly invokes CreateInstance() which throws.

Vande, Thanks - I'll try your suggestion. Royce

Hi, How do I connect to my COM server, written with VS C++ 7.1 (2003). I have been writing COM servers and clients for about 5 years now. For the past 3 or 4 years, I have used the #import statement and the __uuidof operator with smart pointers to connect to my servers with no problem. Now when I try to use __uuidof() in a VS 7.1 client, it throws an exception "Class not registered" when it clearly is registered. Anyone know what's going on? Thanks, Royce

Hi, Using Albert Pascual's article as a starting point, I have created a Windows Service. However, I can't get it to run. After building it, I opened the command window and ran the InstallUtil.EXE on it successfully, but it never shows up in the MMC/Services window and it never writes to the event log. What should my next step be to get this thing going? Thx, RFickling
