I'm just not sure what to do about it, or is it just a fluke that I should ignore and not worry about?

It does happes that Handles are a limmited pool also and when you load many apps on your pc and one of them either have memory leaks of mis handle the handles :D you can run out of them. If this was on your local workstation a good old reboot will take you back to normal operating conditions. If you are a hard die guy and really want to know whos the responsible program in Task Manager and Display "Handle Count" ;) Cheers, * Noel Post #405301 Steve Jones - SSC EditorSteve Jones - SSC Editor Posted Monday, Octo

on for a client is used actively, users often get "Error creating window handle" exceptions. Aside from the fact that the application consumes too http://weblogs.asp.net/fmarguerie/cannot-create-window-handle-desktop-heap much resources, which is a separate issue altogether that we are already http://hdg-thefish.blogspot.com/2014/06/my-first-cursor.html addressing, we had difficulties with determining what resources were getting exhausted as well as what the limits are for these resources.We first thought about keeping an eye on the Handles counter in the Windows Task Manager. That was because we noticed that some processes tended to consume more error creating of these resources than they normally should. However, this counter is not the good one because it keeps track of resources such as files, sockets, processes and threads. These resources are named Kernel Objects. The other kinds of resources that we should keep an eye on are the GDI Objects and the User Objects. You can get an overview of the error creating window three categories of resources on MSDN. User Objects Window creation issues are directly related to User Objects. We tried to determine what the limit is in terms of User Objects an application can use.There is a quota of 10,000 user handles per process. This value can be changed in the registry, however this limit was not the real show-stopper in our case. The other limit is 66,536 user handles per Windows session. This limit is theoretical. In practice, you'll notice that it can't be reached. In our case, we were getting the dreaded "Error creating window handle" exception before the total number of User Objects in the current session reached 11,000. Desktop Heap We then discovered which limit was the real culprit: it was the "Desktop Heap".By default, all the graphical applications of an interactive user session execute in what is named a "desktop". The resources allocated to such a desktop are limited (but configurable). Note: User Objects are what consumes most of the Desktop Heap's memory space. This includes windows. For more information about the Desktop Heap, you can ref
12 June 2014 My first cursor - faster than SET based operation Of course, you should NEVER write cursor. Especially not for SQL server. Or so I was told. The rational behind the code I believe people hate them so much because usually you might find them in some legacy code, where there could be some other proper SET based operations, or at least they might exist nowadays. Nobody likes legacy code. Nothing too delightful about jumping into code that you don't know and you didn't write. Another reason is of course, for the usual T-SQL code that you write some smart people wrote optimizer for. If you run a Cursor the optimizer cannot kick in, so it's likely that the code would run slower. But sometimes you do need to write cursors. The main use is when you needto go row by row. Then why not use client side programs, like C# or VB? Well, maybe it's because the developer feels more competent using SQL than by using C#? That's been my excuse for writing the code below. So I had to go row by row for a one off. My SQL skills exceed my C# skills. I needed to run this code once and that's all. So I choose to write a cursor. What does it do? There had been some duplicated rows of data in the "attachment" table. The data is a file, saved in the "content" column as varbinary(VARMAX), and I just wanted to make sure that the duplicated file name didn't stem from a different files, but rather, represented the same file on multiple instances. I've made sure that all attachments were saved to a new table called "multiple_attachment" when "min_attachid" is the ref (there's obviously another field called "file name" which I didn't bother with this time). Since it's hard to trace errors in Cursor I've added the "INSERT" statement. Using SET based operation would not be quicker (tested!) due to the INNER JOIN of a table on itself, on top of the expensive operation of comparing varbinary(max). The code DECLARE first_cursor CURSOR FOR SELECT content, attachid, min_attachmentid FROM dbo.multiple_attachment WHERE attachid <> min_attachmentid DECLARE @content VARBINARY (max) DECLARE @attachid BIGINT DECLARE @min_attachid BIGINT OPEN first_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM first_cursor INTO @content, @attachid, @min_attachid WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 BEGIN IF @content <> (SELECT content FROM dbo.attachment WHERE attachid = @min_attachid) INSERT [dbo].[trace_errors] ([attachid]) SELECT (@attachid) FET
