Yes, I tried but i was expecting someone who had some experience with this kind of algorithms to point me in the right direction. I agree, "best" is very broad. I need a fast search algorithm. I can optimize the source if needed. It's not an exact string match. It's all strings beggining with a given pattern, something like google suggestions. vSoares

Hi. I have a text file full of words (lets say one word per line). I want to find all words starting with a given pattern. What's the best algorithm to do this? Thanks, vSoares

Finaly found some info about this on http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/virtualserver/partners/vhdpartners.mspx[^] Cheers, vSoares

The demo includes a server application that requires "advanced" OS configuration. No one is going to change his OS settings just for a demo.

I agree. I wouldn't be considering distributing VMs if didn't need a "controled environment". Thanks for your reply.

No, I don't want to license the copies I will distribute. I just want to distribute something like those Technical Demonstration Toolkits that Microsoft handles to me. All the pre-configured virtual machines are evaluation copies.

Hi all. I need to distribute some demos of our application to customers. I was planning to distribute them in a DVD using pre-configured Windows XP virtual machines with the application installed. The Windows XP will be installed without activation meaning that the installation will expire within 30 days or so. Has anyone done this? Any legal constraints? Thanks, vSoares

Hi everyone! Can anyone suggest me a nice and free Web Chart control? Thank you. vSoares

Hi! I have several users connected through terminal services to a windows server 2003 64 bit. When a user sends some document to printer and tries to close session it hangs for several minutes. After searching, i found some articles[^] pointing this issue. This occurs because there is a process (Splwow64.exe) that remains in memory for several minutes. This process is used to convert between 32 bit and 64 bit applications. This process remains in memory in order to increase system performance and unloads from memory after a specified time from the end of the last job. We can specify this time adding or editing the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\SplWOW64TimeOut (DWORD) and setting here the number of minutes to stay in memory before unloading. Although this can be good for performance, it causes RDP sessions to hang when short time has passed after the user has done his last print and tries to close the session. The minimum value we can set SplWOW64TimeOut is 1. If we set it to 0, the application just hangs completely. Is there any way to set this process to unload as soon as the job ends? vSoares

Hi! Does anyone knows how to cancel an Installation from a Custom Installer class? Thanks, vSoares

Hi! When using terminal services we can specify a program to start at user logon. When the user closes the program the session should be ended. My problem is that when the users close the program, it takes too long to close the session. I have searched on the Group Policy Editor but can´t find a policy for this. Anyone can give me some hint? Thanks PS: using Windows Server 2003 R2 vSoares

Hi! I have a restricted user under Windows XP and i would like to grant him permissions to manage web sites in his own machine using IIS 5.1. I don't want to add him to the power users or administrators group, just grant him permissions on IIS even if i have to create a new group such as Web Operator or something like that. Does anyone knows how can i do this? Thanks, vSoares

I have already used it and it's pretty good. I just wanted something without having to install a service taking up on system resources. A client tool with direct connection to the database is the perfect solution. Probably I’ll install Vault or some other SCM tool like subversion. Thanks for the reply vSoares

Hi folks! I work for a company as developer and all the source control management in my team relies on Team Foundation Server installed on our lan. I work from my laptop and sometimes I spend a lot of days working outside the office. For internal policies, our Team Foundation Server is not available from outside. I would like to have some kind of local lightweight Source Control Management. I know CVS, subversion, etc. but I don’t need all those features like http server, several users, …. I only need some basic features like versioning, branching, diffs, … to manage my daily coding. When I’m at the office I’ll submit my changes to TF Server. Dows anyone know some kind of app like this? Cheers, vSoares
