• Denis Pitcher Lazy question re associated changesets

  I know I could try this out, but it would take a while to log the work items and run the builds! Could someone explain what happens when the value of <UpdateAssociatedWorkItems> changes The thing is, we will be running nightly builds and hourly semi-continuous integration builds which I would like the build results to show associated changesets since the last time the build type ran, but does this mean that associated work items can only be logged with one build type I would like the CI build to list everything that has changed in the last hour, in case someone's changes break the build, but I would also like the nightly build to show what has changed in the last 24 hours (including all the changesets already associated with the C ...Show All

I understand the concept but when i debug the code and....lets say save a file, I cannot find the file on my desktop as a .txt file. Here is the code that I have implemented.

• IamHuM sum a secod

  hello guys! I'm doing a sql query and the criteria is >'08-02-2007 12:42:06'. When I run the query, it returns this date. But the criteria is bigger than the date (> '08-02-2007 12:42:06') I think it is because of miliseconds. So I was thinking, maybe I can add a second to the hour. Does somebody know how to do this Thanks. Liliana No need to declare another variable: Dim dt As DateTime = #8/2/2007 12:42:06 PM# dt= dt.AddSeconds(1) Dim dt As DateTime = #8/2/2007 12:42:06 PM# dt .

• Robertis Tongbram Could someone help me troubleshoot a bug in designer

  Having major problems with computed columns in vb express designer. in datatable designer if I try to add Sum(child.Total) to the invoicetotal expression property I get an error validating the formula for column "invoicetotal' If i try add Sum(child.total) to the invoicetotal expression property in the dataset designer I get error. unbound reference in aggregate expression 'system,data,aggregatenode' This is driving my crazy.

• BenK95781 Qbasic commands in VB 2005 Express

  I wrote a math formula in Qbasic and I am trying to get it to run in VB 2005 Express, it has a lot of nested loops and comparison statements (If Then Statements). I have watched two chapters in the tutorials for VB 2005 Express and it is relating more to forms then to the math formulas I need it to run. Is there a way to get it to run or do I need to fork out $200 for Power Basic Kent , I will copy these links and study the material when I get back to Houston. There seems to be a lot of information about VB, what is the difference between the free version and the devoloper version of this product Thank you for yor help.

• SpeedNut Customizing team build number?

  When Team Build launches, it automatically assigns a build number of the format: <BuildTypeName>_<YYYYmmdd>.<number> This is pretty heinous and means essentially nothing to our QA department who is used to build numbers like 5.30.010. Under other circumstances I wouldn't be so picky but I've just discovered that the bug tracking uses these numbers to populate its drop down list of build numbers. Is there any way to change this number I suspect from what I know about Team Build that the answer will be no. I have thought of a work around but I would really not go through the hassle (the work around being to change the name of the build type before every build by using a tf rename command, such that it would be som ...Show All

• TheGreenGenie Q about the given options of merge resolution dialog box

  Hi, Sometimes when I'm merging between two folders that connected with branch relation I get different options in the resolution option dialog box.

• Danny Tuppeny error trying program on other pc

  Hi I've got a program. It has 1 source file (.cpp) and 1 header file(.h).

• rtaiss Cloaking then uncloaking folders regenerates all changesets?

  Here's how I created the scenario: Initially no folders were cloaked and I ran a few successful TeamBuilds. I cloaked a few folders and ran my TeamBuild project successfully. I then uncloaked these folders again. When I did that ALL the changesets from the time of the migration from VSS were listed in the build. I'm testing a build script so this wouldn't be happening in production but this still seems like wierd behaviour... Thanks for the heads up on this issue - we plan to address it in a future release of Team Build. -Aaron ...Show All

• grellsworth CreateFontIndirect Assertion in wingdi.cpp

  Hi could any one help me in this piece of code which is causing an assertion CFont* myBold = (CFont*) GetFont(); if (myBold) { LOGFONT lf; myBold->GetLogFont(&lf); lf.lfWeight = FW_BOLD; lf.lfHeight = 18; myBold->CreateFontIndirect(&lf); //causing assertion here in wingdi.cpp } Thanks in advance Kiran The function is fine just like you have it. Just add the DeleteObject right before you call CreateFontIndirect and then SetFont right after. Does that not work You can't create a font with a pointer that is already allocated. You need to call myBold->DeleteObject() before you call myBold->CreateFontIndirect You can then call SetFont(myBold) ...Show All

• Ineedhelp123 tab control

  Hi I am using a tab control, a status strip and a tool strip. the tool strip is docked at the tp and the status strip at the bottom but when i try and dock the tab control to fill the form it is hiddne behind th other two controls. How can i solve this problem oh thanks. ill just try that. Drag the Tab Control to the size you want it to be relative to the rest of the form and controls and set it's Anchor property to anchor it to the top, left, right and bottom. By doing this as you change the form size the tab control's size will automatically grow/shrink in just the same way. Hi, this is a Z-order thing - you have to bring the tab control to the front.

• Geeee HELP: C# or VB On Certain Keys Press Start Application

  Hello, My basic goal is to code a program to run in the background and start on windows startup. That when I press like Ctrl-U or another combo. It starts a program. Mainly RK Launcher. I have been trying to figure this out for awhile. If somebody could point me in the right direction that would be extrmely helpful. Thanks! - Steve Hi I think you need a windows service that will run in background and will hock to Keyboard events, when you press any key your service will receive that keys code and if it is the desired pattern then it will perform the operation you want.

• M.D.A Are there client (team explorer, excel addon, ...) updates assocated with TFS SP1?

  If so, can you run the sp1 exe on the client machines or is there an assocated service pack for the client software Steve Mayhugh wrote: But I must admit it's a bit strange. Considering the fact that to install Team Explorer the user must install it from the TFS setup. But for the SP1, the user must use the VS SP1 instead of the TFS SP1. Team Explorer is installed separately from Team Foundation Server. They ship on the same CD, and have a common front-end autorun, but they are indepdendent packages -- TFS is located in the at , atdt , and dt folders, and Team Explorer is in the tfc folder.

• BrentB Project Creation Failed--Cannot connect to Sharepoint

  I am getting a Project Creation Failed error message--appears that it has difficulty connecting to the Sharepoint site. This is a clean install of the TFS trial on a Windows Server 2003 SP1 box with WSS 2.0 SP2. Any ideas on why this is failing I checked to make sure the port the TFS project creation wizard was using to access the site with the port specified in the Sharepoint Central Administration website and they match. Perhaps a complete uninstall/reinstall is the only answer... 2006-06-13 19:01:31Z | Module: Internal | Team Foundation Server proxy retrieved | Completion time: 0 seconds 2006-06-13 19:01:31Z | Module: Wizard | Retrieved IAuthorizationService proxy | Completion time: 0 seconds 2006-06-13 19:01:36Z | Module: Intern ...Show All
