    Hanging Visual Studio

    This is on behalf of WDP as he is away at the moment. The PC has 512MB already. It can happen in any mode, it will just sit there, then you can stop it and re run again, it may work or it may require you to repeat the process a couple more times. Cheers Dave Dave dab@completebs.com...

    You can do fancy stuff in DTS but a straighforward way would be to bring the CSV data into a 'PreWash' table that consists of pure char fields where there is problem data, then add a process to the dts to execute a stored proceedure that uses convert to rewrite the problem field into a valid...

    Storing an Image in SQL Server 7

    Hi, You need to write the image in from the front end whether it be VB or Access or another, there is no way I know that you can do it with SQL itself, you could possibly break it into binary objects (BLOB) and write it into the field a bit at a time. The Northwind Access front end Employees...

    Debug Buttons Greyed Out in SQL2000

    Hi, I am having a problem where although the debug routine is active the debugger just executes the stored proceedure and then all of the actual debug controls are greyed out. I can set a breakpoint but it just ignores it and goes straight through. I am sure the permissions are ok because we...

    Record Set problem...

    I have not used the AddListItems before, but I may be inclined to go back to basics and put a break on the setrst line and use ?qry in the immediate window to show the contents of the qry string, it may be better if you are not already doing so to also add qry = "" set rst = nothing...

    making an exe file

    You would need the Office Development Kit to distribute the system as a setup.exe assuming you wish to send out the Runtime as well. If you just want to send the mdb file and various docs you could get away with a commercial installation creater such as Wise Or InstallSheild. Remember if you...

    Jim have you checked the file is not set to exclusive, if the front end is only installed on one machine and in View..Options..Multi/User..DefaultOpenMode = Exclusive, then only one user can use the database, either change this to shared or give the remote user a front end with tables attached...
