Arkle Online Training Videos

Hi,
Follow our blog which shows new features and how to use them.

Please don't update yourself to a new version without checking with the helpdesk first. You may need schema updates to your database before applying an update (and if you update with out them Arkle may fall over and not work).

SQL Server Transaction Log Full

Sometimes, for whatever reason the transaction log gets full up.
And shrinking via management studio doesn't work;

sp_detach_db [database name]
Then rename or delete the log file

Then
EXEC sp_attach_db @dbname = N'pubs',
@filename1 = N'c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\pubs.mdf',
This will create a new blank log file and get you up and running.

Easiest way I have found to date:

MsgBox("is button", MsgBoxStyle.Information)
End If
