I am on my way down to D.C. from New Jersey. But, with the storm moving through here, my flight is delayed and it looks like it'll be delayed further. I was advised against driving down (Beltway traffic concerns), and so dashed over to the Newark Amtrak station to catch a train down to D.C....
Two great events in N.Y. yesterday, with 75 attendees in Albany and over 80 in NYC. Today we have a lunch time usergroup meeting in N.J., and then I head down to D.C. for three events, a usergroup presentation this evening, and a seminar and midday usergroup session tomorrow morning. Links to all...
This is a feature first demonstrated in CT yesterday, a new tag in Scorpio named which does just that, it returns information about databases (and data sources, and tables, and columns, and stored procedures, and more). This first code snippet shows how to obtain a list of tables in a specified...
Yesterday's Scorpio presentations in Connecticut went very well, with over 100 attendees between the two venues. I'm posting this as I am about to head out the door to drive to Albany, NY for a midday session, and then it is in to New York City for a presentation this evening. So, if you are the...
I am in Connecticut, where we'll kick off Week 4 of the Scorpio usergroup tour with two presentations today, a midday one in Hartford and an evening one in Stamford. As before, we have additional Scorpio goodies this week that we'll be unveiling today for the first time, so if you are in the area,...
At one of the usergroup sessions this week someone asked if there was a way to get file information (size, date time, etc.) easily using a function. I said they should use , but afterwards remembered that we did indeed add a new function to Scorpio called GetFileInfo() which returns a structure...
Last night's session here in Nashville was incredible. About 50 attendees filled a great venue, and the crowd was so interactive that the session ran almost 3 hours! This was a really fun group to present to, they loved what they saw, and want Scorpio now. Tonight I present to the group in...
Yesterday I did something I have never done before. In over a decade of travel, bouncing between cities, states, and countries, I have never messed up time zones. Until yesterday, that is. For the past four decades, Indiana has been in the Eastern Time Zone, with the exception of ten counties in...
One of the Scorpio features that we've been demoing to wide acclaim, is the increased control and flexibility in managing ColdFusion Administrator Access and RDS access. In ColdFusion today, there is a single password for each of these features, and a user with the Administrator password has full...
Both of yesterday's event were superb. We had a lunchtime crowd of about 75 in Minneapolis, and they loved Scorpio (and the free food). I had to cut the session at 2:00 to get to the airport to catch my flight to Chicago. A flight delay meant that we started a little late in Chicago, but the crowd...
