.net - SqlServiceAdvancedProperty Name To Get The Install Root For Sql Server 2008 Using ManagementObjectSearcher?
Nov 17, 2010
I'm using a ManagementObjectSearcher to query information about installed Sql Server instances, for example:
[Code]...
This method works great for InstanceID, Version and SKUName but now I'm trying to find the installation root as well. For SQL 2005 it appears the property name was SqlDataRoot, but has since been depreciated. Anybody know the correct property name to use to get the data directory, or even just install directory for Sql Server?

I was created simple payroll system application. It's already working on my local pc. Now, my client want to install in their server and they need to access atleast 3 pc's to it. This application compiled using setup and deployment. During the installation the access database included with the same directory of the executable file. If I will install this application on their server do I have to install also in their 3 pc's? but every installation it has included access database. How to achieve this? here is the connection of my database

Edit and Possible Solution: Based on the answer at DisconnectedContext MDA when calling WMI functions in single-threaded application I think the solution here is to call GetPortName() outside of WndProc. I will test this tonight and post my result.

I am currently working on an application for use with scanning an printing devices. I use the ManagementObjectSearcher in order to retrieve device names and Id's:For example using (Don't forget to add the reference to System.Management.dll in the framework 2.** folder if you're trying the code)
Dim searcher As New ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Win32_PnPEntity")
Dim PnpDevice As ManagementObject
For Each PnpDevice In searcher.Get()
[code]....
There are various classes such as:
-CIM_LogicalDevice
-Win32_PnPEntity
Allow access to various properties-- most of which are read only.
Question: Is it possible through one of these classes to reset a scanning device that is already in use or check on its current status.
-CIM_LogicalDevice("Status")--Win32_PnPEntity("Status") return the value of "OK" when the scanner is in use by another application. So that property must not be what I'm looking for.
I just want to query the device and if it is in use (from a failed attempt or human error) reset the device. The object that calls the scanner/printer is waiting for an event handler(successful scan) that sometimes does not occur and I cannot dispose of the object locking the device up as "in use."
How do I free the device? Or would the solution be to create a timer which waits for the event handler which could contain a property flag set to true if it occurs. If the event doesn't occur in a given timeframe and the flag is false dispose the object?

VS won't recognize this as a class, I get the "Type 'ManagementObjectSearcher' is not defined." error. Usually when this happens I just need to import something, in this case it's System.Management, however this doesn't do anything. I'm quite new to programming so it's probably some very simple mistake or misunderstanding.

I have some software that does the following code to try to loop through the software (MSI's) that are installed on a machine. Originally it was passing in a package name as a parameter, but I've simplified my code to make it easier to follow. It was working before, I can't figure out why it's not now. Here's an example snippet with a package that doesn't exist:
Dim

I have an application that allows the user to conduct database backups and restores. The users had been using Windows XP, with network security that allowed users to read the registry. For restores, the installation path to the SQL Server named instance was easily found by looking up the instance name in the registry using
restoreDir = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\" & m_DatabaseInstanceName & "\Setup", "SQLPath", Nothing).ToString
They have recently upgraded to Windows 7, and locked down the registry so that users can not read values from it. Is there a way (via code) to find the path to a named instance of SQL Server, so that the app can automatically place the database files (mdb & ldb) in the correct folder?

I need to develop a service and install it into a w2003 box to read excel files a then process its info. The process is as follows, users will upload excel files using FTP and then my service must take those files, validate and then update a SQL Server DB.
The application runs fine on my computer but on the server it asks for the libraries but when I try to install the MS office 2003 Primary Interop Assemblies, system displays "Please install Microsoft Office 2003 before installing the product".
I'd prefer to stay away of any server upgrade as we should require OKs, etc.. so, is there a simple way to just read excel files without having to install any update in the server.

Much to my disappointment I recently discovered that VB can not calculate the cube root (or any odd root) of a negative number even though it is a real answer.For instance if you tryMsgBox((-1)^(1/3))You should get -1 because -1*-1*-1 = -1. But no, VB will return NaN, not a number.Anyways, my problem is that I'm making a graph program and the user needs to be allowed to enter any formula they want and have it evaluated so the program can graph it. But if the user enters anything with x^(1/3) or like it, it will fail.So I was wondering if anyone knows of a way around this problem, such as an extension or patch or something that will fix the issue in Visual Basic. I haven't tried VB 2010 but does anyone know if they have they fixed it yet in that version?

I have a simple program that collects information from a database then sends the information to a .dll, which performs some calculations. I have figured out how to build and publish my application, but I'm not sure how to include the .dll. I'd like to put the .dll is a common folder (i.e. system32) when I install the program on a PC.
