SQL server and row level security
Why SQL Server has no build in row level security? LOL.
Oracle does have nice and simple way to define RLS since version 8i.

save infopath data in Word Doc.
Hi All,
I am working on a condition, where A word document (which is a blank template) is attached to a infopath form and saved in Form Library. After submit the form I want a do either of the two options.
1) A mail will be sent with a form where user will fill the details and that got saved in words document. because now word doc is blank as it is a template.
2) Word document automitcally picks up the details from infopath fields and save that in word document.

Hi,
It is a complicated method.
You can do this by using managed code to populate the word document. You can do this with the library "WordML" that allow to populate data in a word document.
But you need to use word as a xml version. It is a development that not exist natively.
Hope this helps.

Windows Update Codes 0XC80003FA 0x8024001B Not updating
Ran into a server that was not updating WSUS (Dell 2950, W2K8 enterprise). Did a lot of diagnosis and could not resolve problem, so we rebuilt from scratch twice including all the latest Dell drivers and were unable to update from windows update or internal WSUS. So how does a clean build of W2K8 not be able to get Windows updates???? That's what we were wondering. Windowsupdate.log indicated some corruption and that the database would be rebuilt, however it never got rebuilt - It appears to me there is a bug in the code that is supposed to do that. Windowsupdate.log clearly says the log would be rebuilt but never did it. The following error was logged in the system log:
Log Name: Application

The expected checksum was 2818733426791738953 (0x271e271e0c70ee49) and the actual checksum was 1089324781602401865 (0x0f1e0f1e0c70ee49). The read operation will fail with error -1018 (0xfffffc06). If this condition persists then please restore the database from a previous backup. This problem is likely due to faulty hardware. Please contact your hardware vendor for further assistance diagnosing the problem.

</Event> First, got on a DC because the tool I needed was installed there -esentutl.exe. That seems to get installed when you do add the DC role to W2K8. Mapped c: drive on server having the problem as z: On server having the problem box shut down cryptographic service, BITS, Windows Updates. (had to set windows updates to disabled – kept restarting and opening the file) you need to do this to get access to the DB to do anything with it.

I bolded the odd statement - the problem was likely due to hardware failure - yeah right, my brand new Dell has a hardware problem..... sure...... So we ran diags on it anyway and the Dell DSET utility and no problems found - server reports it is healthy. Latest drivers were installed via the Dell ITA.
On further thought I realized that the DB the error code refers to is a Jet DB and I start thinking about what might get Jet fixed if it had a problem somewhere else..... Hmmmm...... maybe Active Directory for instance.
So I did a bit more poking around the web and found some very helpful info. Found this entry suggesting I needed to use esentutl.exe which on a DC is front ended by ntdsutil http://x220.minasi.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2820 Found this KB and got the idea to try repairing the JET DB. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816120
------ begin snip of command window--------
The database was repaired, I ran Windows update again and presto - 38 updates waiting.
So that's what got it fixed. I've found from other people that this problem has actually occurred somewhat regulary and I couldn't find anyone that had a solution so if this helps anyone - you're welcome.

I'd be inclined to think that the DATASTORE.EDB was corrupted from the original installation image.
Was this a DELL installed instance of the OS; an installed instance from a local image; or was this instance of the OS installed directly from media?
It is an interesting concept, however, to use ESENTUTL on the datastore. I'd never even considered that option, and it may well be a preferable option to the current practice of trashing the entire ~\SoftwareDistribution folder when the datastore becomes corrupted. Of course, that doesn't mean that all instances will be repairable, but it may well be something we need to try before making the decision to trash it outright.
Also, I'd be interested in seeing, in context, the actual log entries containing the subject error codes (0xC80003FA; 0x8024001B). The latter code is usually a VALID indication of a LEGIT activity:
| 0x8024001B | WU_E_SELFUPDATE_IN_PROGRESS | The operation could not be performed because the Windows Update Agent is self-updating. |
However, referring back to the image source -- if somehow a master image got 'captured' while the source of that image was actually in the process of performing a selfupdate, it could easily wreak all sorts of havoc on the subsequent implementations of that 'in progress' image.
Of curiosity, I'd also be interested in knowing what version of the WUA is logged on that machine at the top of the WindowsUpdate.log, and what version is currently installed.

My question is if I gave answer to the question it is on Microsoft forum so I get the points straight away. But if I do blog somewhere else how do Microsoft know that I am doing blogging and my blogs/Galleries is quite popular in the community.
Another question in order to get MCC or MVP award do I need to do blogging and answer to the forum question for full one year in order to consider for that
I mean Microsoft award MCC and MVP in the start of every year or it could be any time in the year as well
I think someone might be able to reply this question in more detailed manner
Many thanks

WTF is Templates Home???
Word 2010 on 7 Ultimate x64 (non-networked) stand alone system
In every previous version of Word going back to Windows 95 we could create a document template, click File --> Save As -- Document Template and then any time we wanted to create a new document from that template, go to File --> New and there was the template.
But in Word 2010 if you try that syntax you end up looking at a stupid screen that tells you pretty much nothing. It says "Available Templates" and "Home"
Well where is Home? How do I path my File Locations to save a new template such that it will show up there?
How does Microsoft benefit from doing this? Do the engineers in the suicide capital of the world (Redmond) get arousal from instilling pain in users? Or are they trying to wreck the company? Maybe they're moles from a competitor? WTF???
Reply:
The path for templates can be set in File > Options > Advanced > File Locations... (at the bottom) > User templates.
The default location is C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates.
In File > New, click My Templates to see the templates in the User templates folder.

Thanks for trying, but that does not work. When I do as you say, there's nothing there but "blank document".
The question is "How do I path my file locations to save a new template such that it will show up under the stupid Home area of the (new) stupid layout?"
Thanks.

Still nothing Hans. I can see the file path. It's the default and it's the same as what you have indicated above.
When I go to File > New > My Templates I see nothing but Blank Document.

In the home section, click the icon called Blank document--that icon represents normal.dotm, which when clicked gives you a new document based on normal.dotm.

Hello,
As Hans suggested, please save your personal templates in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates (which is default template file location if you do not change it before in File > Options > Advanced > File Locations... (at the bottom) > User )templates.
Then, when you click File > New > My templates, you also see your personal templates:
I've tested this for you and the new saved template did show in my template window, if you still have problems, maybe you can show us your screen that Hans, Pam and I can be further help:)

I checked my File Locations and it's still at the default installation. Problem is, when I save something as a template, it defaults to the stupid Libraries Documents folder so a user is compelled to path through to the "burried deep inside Windows" tempates folder.
I created a new teamplate and saved it in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templates then closed Word, opened Word, clicked File > New > My Templates and sure enough, there it is.
This begs the questions:
1) How the heck is a user supposed to know to path that deep into this trash?
2) How does Microsoft or anyone benefit from this change from what worked well for decades?
3) What changes should we expect in future versions of Word? I've spent decades of my life becomming proficient with computers. But this is a waste of my life. I will not tolerate it. Let me guess, they're going to start putting all the fonts randomly upside down and backwards to save the seals and butterflies?

Stop Windows Media Player shortcut from being created in the ProgramData folder
Hi,
I am setting up a Kiosk Windows 7 computer, very locked down.
The problem I am having is that when an Administrator account logs in and a new profile is created for that administrator account I am getting a shortcut to the Windows Media Player in the folder "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu". This is than giving all users including the locked down users access to the Media Player.
How do I stop the creation of new profile from creating this shortcut?
Thanks

OS deployment through SCCM 2007 R2
Hi,
I'm new to OSD feature, need help in configuring and deploying OS.
Steps I followed.
Installed WDS and configured PXE point in the primary server.
Distributed default boot image that is present in SCCM to the PXE point.
SOE image are distributed to DP's.
created the task sequence
and advert. for the task sequence.
The task is configured is like downolad the content when the task sequence run's
but I'm getting error like "Unable to read task sequence configuration disk"
How to install OS same as software deployment?
Whether PXE server IP should be added as "help address" for this kind of deployment?
Also, whether the PXE server IP should be configured in DHCP scope?

what are the exact errors you are seeing in SMSTS.log ? here's a post to help you find them:-
Troubleshooting PXE and OSD Deployment problems
Troubleshooting with the help of SMSTS.LOG and F8
and have you checked if you can browse C:\ yet ? if not (new disk) you could try diskparting the disk before starting the task sequence.

Usually this error message is associated with no network connectivity in WinPE.
Bring up a command prompt in WinPE (press F8)and run IPConfig to confirm if there is network connectivity.
To press F8 you must activate "Enable command support" on your boot image and refresh DP.

if the computer doesn't get an IP while PXE booting (and you stated that you opened a command prompt which means winpe downloaded and launched) then you are missing network drivers in your boot wim images for your hardware that you are booting on, have you injected any network drivers into your boot images ?
what hardware are you PXE booting on ?

The issue has been resolved now. The issue is due to a 3rd party firewall device wich were causing the communication failure.
But, now the issuue different.

MS sign in issue for some users.
Hi
I have more than 7000 users on BPOS. Suddenly some users are not able to Sign in Microsoft Sign in application. After Doing some troubleshooting found the certificate coming from BPOS should old expiration date.
Some user fixed with this command - cacls "%appdata%\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA" /t /e /c /g %userdomain%\%username%:F
Client Side Certificate showing expire date- Microsoft Online Services BPOS EMEA CA5 Certificate CA5
Can you please given me details about how this certificate issues by BPOS and why suddenly some users are showing expire certificate date and not able to Sign in.
What is root cause and how to over come this quicky ?

Mangesh,
The certificate you are referring to is downloaded by the Sign-in client. If your users can't sign in, it will be expired as they only last for a few days (it is renewed every time the user logs in). You can view the SIC logs for explanation of why the user is failing to log in. The logs are located at:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Sign In\logs in Windows 7/Vista.
If this is an ongoing issue (and critical), I would highly recommend contacting BPOS support for a quicker resolution.
Have a great day,
Dan

MSRS 2008 Report Execution Service - Setting Multi-Value Dropdown to '(select all)' from code
Is there a good way to programmatically select all values in a Dropdown Parameter, when you do not know the values available beforehand? In other words, can I programmatically 'select all' in one go, as opposed to having to select each individual option in the dropdown explicitly?
e.g.
ReportExecution.ParameterValue[] msrsParamArray = new ReportExecution.ParameterValue[num]; msrsParamArray[0] = new ReportExecution.ParameterValue { Name = "Blah", Value = "10" }; msrsParamArray[1] = new ReportExecution.ParameterValue{ Name = "Item", Value = "%" }; // attempt to select all as Item is a multivalue dropdown in the code above, the Item value is a dropdown with 1 or more values in it. Let's say I do not know which values Item has... is there a way to simply select all using an approach like this(represented by the '%' in the code above), or must I set all Item values explicitly?

#550 5.1.1 RESOLVER.ADR.RecipNotFound - New Exchange 2010 Server Install
Hello all. I have just setup a new Exchange Server, patched it to SP2.
At first it needed to have the ISP open port 25 (they said that there is no reverse lookup as a result so hopefully this is not the issue.) Now I can send emails internally and externally but cannot receive any messages externally. The error is "#550 5.1.1 RESOLVER.ADR.RecipNotFound" so I am scratching my head as to why it is not working.
Right now I am just using the OWA so no Outlook issues yet. Let me know what I need to send to this post to help resolve this issue.
Thanks SAS

Sorry for the long dealy in this.
You were kinda right. It appears the issue was with the MX record. The priority was with the MICROSOFTONLINE and should have been with the internal Exchange server.
Changing the priority of the MX records resolved the issue.
Thanks for your help and sorry for the delay in this.

Unit Testing SharePoint with Moles
Hi I have an issue unit testing SharePoint with moles , my code sample to test below like that:
SPSite site = SPContext.Current.Web.Site; SPSite siteElevated = new SPSite(site.Url); SPWeb webElevated = siteElevated.AllWebs["TestWeb"]; SPUser currentUser = webElevated.CurrentUser; SPGroupCollection groupCollection = currentUser.Groups; String userGroupType = ""; foreach (SPGroup group in groupCollection) ... ...
how can I Mole this structure ?
thanks

Hi
You would be able to find a sample or video on step by step process but in essence you install moles and pex and add a test project to you solution - add project reference to main project in test project and in the references - right click and generate moles - something like that
Then in you test cases you wold create the moled objects rather than real ones and any function you want to fake you add a delegate for it.
Regards

Hi Yogesh , I have already done these steps you talked about ,but I got stucked in moling these SharePoint code sample , I tried to run the test code below but I couldn't succeed.
Uri uri = new Uri("http://TestWeb"); List<SPGroup> groups = new List<SPGroup>(); List<SPWeb> webs = new List<SPWeb>(); groups.Add(new MSPGroup() { NameGet = () => "TestGroup" }); MSPGroupCollection grps = new MSPGroupCollection() { CountGet = () => groups.Count }.Bind(groups); webs.Add(new MSPWeb() { NameGet = () => "TestWeb", CurrentUserGet = () => new MSPUser() { GroupsGet = () => grps } }); MSPWebCollection webCollection = new MSPWebCollection(){CountGet = () => webs.Count}.Bind(webs); MSPContext.CurrentGet = () => new MSPContext() { WebGet = () => new MSPWeb() { SiteGet = () => new MSPSite() { //AllWebsGet = () => webCollection UrlGet = () => uri.ToString() } //CurrentUserGet = () => new MSPUser() //{ // //NameGet = () => "Unit test user", // GroupsGet = () => grps //} } }; MSPSite fakeSite = new MSPSite() { UrlGet = () => uri.ToString(), AllWebsGet = () => webCollection }; it gives site url not found exception .

PowerPoint 2003: click in table selects some columns and rows
Hi,
we have a strange problem: if I click in a table either the whole table or just some rows and columns are selected. So I have to move the cursor or click onto another cell to remove the selection. Usually on my computer the selection is three by two cells, i.e. if I click in cell 5, 7 then the cells 3, 6 to 5, 7 are selected.
I have checked this problem on three computers, it is always the same behaviour.
This problem appears also on a fresh installation of PowerPoint 2003 SP3 and all patches, the Windows client is Windows 7 Enterprise 32bit.
On a fourth computer with Windows XP SP3 I do not have this problem. Also this problem does not appear if I use UltraVNC and control the Windows 7 client (either if the mouse click into the table is done form the remote controlled user or me).
Any ideas?
Best regards, Nils.
Edit: modyfing a cell does not destroy the whole selected cell, but the first, which is usually not the cell in which I've clicked.
Edit2: I've found a tipp in the internet: properties of the powerpnt.exe => Compatibility => Disable desktop composition
=> this solves the problem, even if it disables the aero effects...

Hi,
It seems that you have found the solution to this issue. Thank you for your time and effort.

Hi Sally,
this is currently a workaround. A fix from Microsoft, which allows to have the aero desktop active, would be better. :-)
Best regards,
Nils.

Windows 7 Pro - net view randomly gives error
Please advice anyone - I am lost...
I use a Cisco E4200 as router/GW for my LAN/WiFi clients, and have PCs and NAS (WD Live Books) devices connected to LAN - and Laptops, Blackberrys and Playbook(Samba) connected to WiFi. There are NO firewall on the E4200.
After a fresh start of all devices - things work as they should.
a "net view" on my Windows computer shows all devices that I should see.
In Windows Explorer, under Network, it correctly lists all the "computer" devices on the top, then Media Devices, Router and storage devices.
Then - after anything from a few minutes - to hours - sometimes a day - devices starts dissapearing from the top of that list - They dissapear from "Computers" but are still listed under Storage or Media,..
AND - I can always ping all devices, I can connect to them with UNC path etc.. so connectivity is there...
When devices starts dissapearing from the "Computers" section,
I am unable to do a "Net View" from my Windows computer, only getting the error:
"System error 6118 has occurred. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available..."
but - still "net view \\hostname" will list all shares on that computer...
A reboot of the Windows computer does not help, same problem..
The Only way to normalize the situation again, is to cycle power on the E4200 router.
and things are "normal" again - until it happens again - after 3-4 minutes - or hours...
I have spoken to Cisco about it, and they say that since I can still connect to all devices on the LAN, and NO firewall on the router is On, No Port blocking - No firewall at all - that it cannot be the Router - but must be a Windows problem...
I have met the wall here... I would have thought that - since a reboot of Windows computer does not help, a reboot of router does not help - but a full Power cycle of the router Works.. that it should be a router issue...
But - I have sometimes managed to "fix" by doing a full reset of TCP stack on the Windows, rebooting and setting IP again...
It almost seems as if Windows is filling up some internal cache/routing tables inside the Router, filling it up with problems...
Things are working without the Network Browser able to populate the Computers on the Network table, but - it is irritating not being able to see all the network connected computers when I need it.
I have tried most things - including disabling Windows own firewall - but - same result..
I have change workgroup name on all devices - same result
I don't have any Homegroup defined..
TCP/IP v6 is disabled
Only one network adapter enabled
Static IP configured
MTU on router set to 1365
and WHAT can cause the "net view" to suddenly stop?
and WHY is it "fixed" only after I power cycle the router?
Please jump in anyone, any suggestions are welcome... I want to have this fixed...
