    - Product catalogs restore It is not just a restore, I am useing SQL Delta , a program that can syncronize the content of databases, roles, functions and so on. The old and the new shop is called the same name so it is easy to check that the content of the databases is the same. The only item that i dont syncronize is the users, as we are now useing domain users to handle access to the databases. So i am fairly sure that the content of the databases are the same. But Commerce Server dont show the old categories, products or properties in the biz tools. Best Regards Philip Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - Microsoft HD DVD Interactivity Jumpstart is available... Hi Jeff, CreateACA is used to create archive files -- you can think of it like a ZIP file, but without the compression. It lets you store all your iHD assets (script, XML, images, etc.) in a single file to facilitate easy reading off the disc. During development, you want to keep your files "loose" so that you can easily edit them and immediately see the results. You typically wouldn't worry about ACAs until you were getting ready to start final mastering for your titles on a real HD DVD disc. XPL files are just XML files; I use Visual Studio to create them. Probably best to just take a basic playlist file from one of the samples and modify the elements you need to get your code to work (eg, change the name of the video file, and any PlaylistApplicationResource elements).

    - changing between normal and selected. Or are you asking about cropping You would use a solution similar to the one Amy posted for changing the backgroundFrame , but you would use the style:crop attribute to only show the portion of the image that was needed for each button. For example, if you have an image that was 200px by 200px and was segmented into 4 quaters each of which was 100px x 100px, you could do something like: < button style:width = " 100px " style:height = " 100px " style:backgroundImage = " url('foo.png') " style:crop = " 0 0 100 100 " /> < button style:width = " 100px " style:height = " 100px " style:backgroundImage = " url('foo.png') " style:crop = " 0 100 100 200 " /> < button style:width = " 100px " style:height = " 100px " style:backgroundImage = " url('foo.png') " style:crop = " 100 0 200 100 " /> < button style:width = " 100px " style:height = " 100px " style:backgroundImage = " url('foo.png') " style:crop = " 100 100 200 200 " /> Now each button references the same image, but only shows the section you want. Combine this with multiple backgroundImage values and a backgroundFrame animation and you should have a good solution. Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - XML on one line problem. I have this issue with BizTalk 2004 and since I was using an orchestration I loaded the message into an XmlDocument and then loaded the XmlDocument into a message inside an Atomic Scope Message Assignment object. You still need the Indent set to Yes. //create XmlDocument object xDoc = new System.Xml.XmlDocument(); // Set the node to an XmlDocument xDoc = xpath(msg_recv, strXPath); //assign message from XMLDocument msg_send=xDoc; Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - How to design (.NET Application & SQL Database) Fraud/Suspicious Activity Detection Application for Financial Organization Thanks Ollie for your reply. Well we already invested 6-7 months on analysing this business problem.Might You got this feeling because i could not explain entire application into the thread in a summarised manner. My answers are given in bold against each of your questions. 1. Is there a finite number of rules Ans: No rules would be added to system as per country regulators requirement as well as bank's compliance department.Some rules may be based on simple calculations and some based on Data Mining where customer current transactional behaviour is compared against previous behavoiur.For example customer average withdrawl is 10 K dollars.if he withdraws 90 K dollars that system should generate alert.T hese would be implemented by us in to system as a update pack not buidable by the client in application. 2. Are new rules identified often and if so how quickly are they to be implemented Ans: One/Twice in Year new rules are identified and it must b implemented in 3-4 months. 3. Do existing rules ever need modification Ans: No rule's logic would not be modified.All rules would be parameters based so input parameter would be defined by application admin. 4. How accurate do the rules have to be, as in if an account is identified as being suspicous and it is not what will the effect be Ans: 100 % otherwise bank would be penalised.System must raise alert as soon as any suspicious activity happens into the system. 5. Are there any performance constraints or is it purely you have to process all new data daily Ans: Processing would be on daily evening after importing all the data.System must throw its output by next morning.Because 3 days are given to bank for reporting. 6. Are the rules to run daily to produce reports are they design to be run ad-hoc Ans: Daily. 7. Are all the rules to be customer centric or are there every rules to be run across several accounts or across transactions Ans: Both type of ruleset would be into the system. For example if a large remittance is transfered in account A and on the same day it moves to account B,C,D..so on.then system should be able to track this interrelated transactions. 8. Are you modifying any of the data Ans: No. 9. Is all the data loaded daily, as in the system is 'flushed' and the reloaded before running Ans: Yes.i am wondering If data is flushed then how analysis services would store customer behavious into OLAP fact tables. 10. How much historical data are you required to store Ans: Maximum up to 1 Yr. Thanks S.Gautam Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - Error while adding a dll under Components Bindings Hi I am getting the following error while trying to bind a .NET dll in a process in RFID. When I try to validate the process i get this error. " The process has a component that is not reachable. None of its event handler methods will ever get called. There is no path for system type starting from a logical device that reaches this event handler. One common reason for this happening is that there are event handlers but no logical devices in the process. The event handler is <EventHandlerDefinition xmlns:i=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance " xmlns=" http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/Microsoft.SensorServices.Rfid.Design "> <componentName>notify</componentName> <eventHandlerInfo> <assembly>RFID.SCM.ManufacturerRFIDProcess, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=2318a97b4faa0bce</assembly> <className>Microsoft.Rfid.Samples.AudioAlert</className> <description>AudioAlert</description> </eventHandlerInfo> </EventHandlerDefinition>. Verify if this event handler is properly positioned in the process pipeline. " Also can I call a Web Service from the Event Handler.. Is this the right method.. When ever a TAG is detected by the RFID scanner .NET Eventhandler (Component) gets executed Which will then call a Web Service. Is this the right approach, or there are some other approaches too. for this. One more question. how can we get some additional information other then TAG info in the EvenetHandler. I am using the BeepEHSample for generating TAGS etc... I am not using any of the physical devices. Amit Rohilla Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - Catalog and inventory schema manager - property metadata Thank you Max, but i have reviewed the permissions and i am a member of the administration role for CatalogAndInventorySystem. The Catalog and inventory schema manager allows me to edit the property metadata without errors but i expect that once the metadata have been edited, the form for creating/editing new properties refreshes dynamically and shows the new metadata properties. For example, I expect that when i create/edit a property, the form shows the "group" field (previously added as a metadata property) but the form is always the same, with the same fields (Property name, Data type, display on site, ...)

    - Windows app, seperating programming and GUI layer. Thanks for the reply. It's not my desire to create a Winforms app with a Console app, really. I just was thinking outloud as a possible solution. My problem with simply creating a Winforms app as you suggest is that the first form becomes the trunk, so to speak, and the Logic, external classes, other forms, etc. become the branches. At least that is how I understand it. Am I incorrect What I want is the program logic to become the trunk from which forms, classes, etc. are instanciated (branches). What I want to do is something like below, where I use the Entry Class to handle the programs main logic, mainly deciding with classes to instanciate and which forms to show. If I run the code below it will, of course exit after 'mainForm.show()'. I don't want it to close, or be a console app, I would wrather it just hang around and accept events from the different forms and classes that it instanciates. class EntryClass { MainForm mainForm = new MainForm(); AnotherForm anotherForm = new AnotherForm(); SomeClass1 someClass1 = new SomeClass1(); SomeClass2 someClass2 = new SomeClass2(); // Define delegates for events public static void main() { EntryClass entryClass = new EntryClass; entryClass.start(); } private void start() { mainForm.show(); someClass1.doSomething(); } private void SomeClass1_didSomething(o as Object, e as EventArguments) { // Code here } } Perhaps I am simply not thinking about it the right way, or properly understanding your reply. Are you suggesting something other than replacing "mainForm.show()" with "application.run(new MainForm)" and instanciating by logical layer from MainForm Anyway, I hope that I'm not making myself look like an idiot.

    - How to make UI proof middle tier? Using something like MVC or MVP, you can decouple your UI from your middle tier and even make your UI logic testable to an extent. I'm assuming you're familiar with this since you mention some frameworks that use it. Your question, if I understand it, is whether or not a controller or presenter could work just as well for different UI technologies (WinForms, ASP.NET, WPF, Silverlight, NextGreatThing). I'd suggest that while I do think that some application logic could be built in such a way as to support this, what you'd end up with, in terms of UX, is not desirable. The different technologies, particularly ASP.NET vs Win client, are too different in how they manage state, how they manage UI components, and how they communicate with a persistent store. Even if you overcame these differences, you'd be left with a lowest-common-denominator interface that limits itself to UI metaphors that can be achieved in all the imagined UI technologies. Given that computer users are becoming more and more discerning in terms of user experience, I'd suggest that your energies should be focused on choosing the UI technology that best fits your application requirements and then using that technology to its fullest to provide the best possible UX within its technological constraints. Naturally, you still want to decouple your UI from your middle tier as much as possible, but I don't think the ROI is there for trying to decouple UI logic from UI technology. I'd even say you risk negative ROI if your technological/architectural abstractions seep through into your UI due to such an approach.

    - Debugging protocol handlers Thanks Eric, i figured out by trial and error anyway (and some ProcessExplorer help).

    - WDS is slowing down System Performance I have a similar problem. I just installed Office Pro 2007. Outlook 2007 requires WDS 3.0. I installed WDS 3.0 as requested. I let it run until it had ostensibly indexed everything (~20 hours). The index status window indicated that it had stopped and that 0 items were left to index. Now everytime I start Outlook (say after a reboot or at orning startup), the searchindexer runs and clobbers my system performance. I attempt to make it sleep. This is confirmed by the appearance of the "wakeup" button. But the indexer starts up after a few minutes and continues to make my machine virutally useless. I have just spent 5 hours on the phone with MS support (Bangalore). They had me performing a variety of useless tests. Finally stated that the problem was due to an interaction between WDS and other 3rd party "tool bars" and that WDS was probably not installed properly. They also stated that Terminal Services had to be in "automatic" mode (it was previously started, but it was in "manual" mode. I uninstalled the "offending" tool bars and uninstalled/reinstalled WDS. Same result - it continues to run and kill my systems performance. I too cannot unininstall because search is integral to Office 2007, especailly Outlook.

    - Vista-to-Vista WDS Not Querying Remote Index I am using a regular UNC share path (not administrative). I gave Everyone read access, but this did not make a difference. But, I did notice that I was initiating the search having drilled into a subfolder of the share, and this was a problem. When I run the search from the very root of the share, it's quick and there is no notice---it appears to use the remote index. I knew that remote indexes weren't queried when you ran a search on a store on your local computer, but assumed of course that WDS would do a remote query when starting in a subfolder of a UNC share. I'm assuming that's not officially not supported, then Thanks for the help! Tag: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive Architecture

    - Delaying file deletion with file adapter Hi, Thanks for the suggestion - I had thought of increasing the polling interval as well, however, my understanding is that it's based on actual time, not the file creation time. If it is based on the file creation time, then I believe that it would address my issue since the reopen by the recording software is instantaneous. Unfortunately, the reopen is out of our control. The third party software automatically performs the reopen as part of the file save process (which is why it's reopening the file from the same place) and doesn't have any settings to allow us to override it reopening the file. The file path is also locked down in the application settings during installation (at our business client's request to ensure that files won't get lost by someone not choosing the correct directory) which also limits us to only being able to have the .wav file saved in a single directory. I walked through a scenario of using a simple FileSystemWatcher .NET app to copy the .wav file to a separate directory for BizTalk (and even possibly using it as the solution), however, again, the third party software is doing something odd behind the scenes during the save because the file watcher app isn't able to pick up the events (create, changed or renamed) and recognize that a new file has been placed in the directory.

Hey,

I'm trying to use GPO to index our users home drive. I've set-up GPO to include this:

ofts://{*}/home/home/%username%/*

As a default indexed path. This does appear in indexing options, however the %username% has not been expanded and remains "%username%". It is not indexed either.

Is there anyway to do something like this in WDS v3.01

Thanks!

Re: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive

Louis Giliberto - MSFT

Unfortunately, we don't expand environmental variables for indexing paths.

If all the subdirs under home/home are users, you should be able to do:

ofts://{*}/home/home/*/* or even otfs://{*}/home/home/*

Note however that will cause everything under home/home to be indexed.

Re: Windows Desktop Search Development Indexing home drive

I thought as much, but I figured I would ask.

Technically what you say would work, as users don't have NTFS permissions to each others home drive. It would of course have WDS trying to access each directory, which would be a bit painful.

Thanks for the answer though - it'd be a nice feature to have in a later version though.
