I am planning on releasing a series on SQL Server 2005 Integration Services video tutorial using Camtasia Studio 4... These how-to series will introduce you to some of the new functionalities introduced in SSIS as well as guide you on how to move your DTS packages from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005... Because I am very busy at work the plan is to release the first video session on Monday, July 30th, 2007. That should give me plenty of time to work on it. Slideshow to the DTS to SSIS presentation will be available for download on Monday, July 2nd, 2007.
For information about creating and running your own community please visit Community Server Video tutorials.
If you are based in the surroundings of beautiful San Diego, CA the weekend of June 30 and July 1 you can have the opportunity to attend a FREE 2 days conference on .NET and other technologies packed with as many sessions as you would expect from a five grand seminar. SoCal CodeCamp is a place for developers to come and learn from their peers as well as network and share ideas with fellow developers.
I will be presenting 3 sessions:
| Seesion |
Programming ActiveX in C++ 2005 |
| Description |
A how-to presentation on how to program an ActiveX control in C++ 2005 using Cisco's VPN Client API. The ActiveX control will connect to a VPN channel. It will be used and integrated using C# 2.0 for both the web and windows application. |
| Session |
DTS to SSIS |

Community Server 2007 |
| Description |
Quickly create and build a community to include: blogs, forums, photo galleries, and much more, for your organization using Community Server 2007 from Telligent Systems. Why CS 2007?

From now on I am going to post mostly programming posts so watch out and put me on your favorites 'cause when I do programming you can bet it is World class coding.
Testing Jeff Espenschied's code highlighter I implemented (was easy but not that easy)
I wanted to create some tutorials I wanted to share with my community. I googled some keywords and came across Camtasia Studio 4.0 which was exactly what I was looking for.
It is $299.00 for its full version.
Trial: http://www.techsmith.com/download/trials.asp
Take a look at the tutorial.

Amongst the many new features added to blogging administration tools I really liked the ability to create rules to block spammers, the ability to block IP address, and the many other features added to the new version of Community Server to make it a lot more manageable to the moderator of a blog to administrator their own content...
I would like to know if there are T-SQL scripts available to upgrade my blog posts... I am thinking about creating a SSIS package in SQL 2005 to migrate data from my old SQL 2000. But then again why try to reinvent the wheel when there must be some tools already out there to accomplish exactly what I am trying to do. So for today on my to do tasks for the day, among the many other things, is to find the wheel.
Today I am upgrading to the
Community Server 2.1 SP2 (CommunityServer 2.1 SP2 (Build: 61129.2)) Personal Edition using SQL Server 2005. Did you know WROX has published a book focued around nothing but
Telligent's Community Server.
Wow! Just finished installing and playing around with it and the database using SQL 2005. I look awesome! The use of AJAX facinated me. This goes beyond my expectations.. I truly recommend you guys. Telligent you guys are my inspiration.
Has anyone ever used
Web Accelerator from Google? As you might have guessed it is a great tool to
index and store cache of web pages you commonly go to. The engineering behind
this add-in tool allows you to surf the internet faster than what your
connection speed will allow. The trick is kind of like indexing your database
for faster response. Just imagine a non-clustered and non indexed database
schema. It will look like a man trying to run on Moon versus another on Earth
performance wise.
The only thing was I had
totally forgotten the Accelerator was running on the background of my browsers
and when I updated a background image on my blog I wasn't seeing any of the
changes taking effect... Man I had tried it all; clearing my browser caches,
cookies, and you name it cache, without a slight change on the background.
This naturally had
to happen today to me... moi... Although I created a ticket with the
support team of my hosting website with this issue we still could not resolve
why this was happening. I conceded it was enough time spend on this
issue and I went dine at my parents house. There, after a very healthy and
delicious dinner, I decided to take a look what it would look like on IE
6.0 SP2 version. You can imagine I had already pointed my fingers to you know
who: IE 7.0. To my relief the background was different on their browser. On my
way back home the light bulbs turned on. I had left the Google Web Accelerator
on and it might have index in its own way my blog background, style sheet,
scripts, and whatever magic it has under its sleeves. So like a brave man with a
new light of hope when I got back home I went to my favorite Dell laptop and
turned off the Web Accelerator then once again cleared the cache from my IE 7.0
browser. And voilà case closed. IE 7.0 sorry
man.
If you have not even updated your Visual Studio
2003 to the 2005 you may be for bits of a catching up to do. Just about a month
ago Microsoft launched a preview to its new .NET 3.5 code named "ORCAS".
If you have fallen behind and still on the .NET
1.1 version I think you are bound to be in for some big surprises when you will have to switch
to the newer more robust version of Visual Studio .NET 2005. Not only has there
been changes to the IDE but also to many programming features... Although anyone
can get a fresh start learning the new trick I suggest you seriously start thinking of beginning playing with
the new features added to .NET 2005 IDE. If you or your company are not in plans to buy the new Visual Studio .NET 2005 you can get many of the feature if you were to install their respective,
either VB.NET or C#, Express editions.
Visual Studio code name “Orcas†--
learn
more.
The readme file is posted
here.
FTP is no longer supported on IE 7.0 browser instead it is supported on your Explorer or My Computer.
Hence anything starting
ftp:// (i.e.
ftp://mydomain.com) will not work on IE 7.0 but it will work using My Computer or Explorer browsers.
Motion detection in embedded DVR using MPEG isn't very easy as you have to go through many trials and errors to adjust camera motions. In addtion not every camera have the same hardware to run your code... To make thinks easier Flash is the easiest tool to use as a GUI to display video. In addition a 56K modem can easily capture motion using Flash in contract with using any other video rendering tool. I have created a tool called FlashIPX which can render your video camera, at home or at work, as a tool to use as a video surveillance using motion detection technology using C, C++, ASM as an API to use with either Java or .NET to create your own video surveillance application using Flash for the web or mobile operating systems.
The code is in testing phase and should be available soon.
Special Thanks,

When you perform the actions to uninstall Outlook 2007 and then trying to reinstall your Outlook 2003 then running Outlook 2003 you will get the following typical error message: "Cannot start Microsoft Outlook. Mapi32.dll is corrupt or the wrong version. This could have been caused by installing other messaging software. Please reinstall Outlook."
To fix this problem I did the following:
- I navigated to the C:\Windows\System32\ folder
- I renamed MAPI32.dll to something else like MAPI_Old.dll
- I ran C:\Windows\System32\FIXMAPI.exe
- Restarted Windows XP Pro SP2.
- Problem was resolved.
