Tips

How do I get the text value of my enumeration in .NET? .ToString() doesn't work! - answered by David Klein.
I have just bought a new PC that comes with Windows XP and Outlook Express 6 (OE 6). My old PC has Windows 98 and OE 5. I wish to migrate my OE email messages to OE 6 on the new computer. Can someone please advise me as to how to do this? - answered by Adam Cogan

The Cutting Edge

G'Day Developers!
Analysis Server will by default use an Access database to store the meta data for each of the databases. Presumably this is because you don't necessarily need to have SQL Server on the same machine as Analysis Server. You should change this repository to point to your SQL Server because it's a more secure, robust, and allows you to backup your data with your normal SQL Server backups. More on rules to better business intelligence.
Cheers until next time, Adam
