• Vidhya Sagar VS Hanging

  Whenever i try to debug my application, Visual Studio Express passes after the compilation, and then nothing happens. After a shrot while a message appears telling me to wait, and if VS is waiting on another program, would i like to go to it. This has me perplexed, as i have no idea what is going on.

• jeusdi The same web test runs once and fails the next one!!

  I have a web test that I need to run iterativelly on my application I configured the run count to be 100, the first time I run the application only the first run inserts data successfully the other 99 don't, the next time I run the test even the first run fails. The problem is not with the data because there are no special validations made on the data to be inserted the system accepts all sorts of data even duplicated. Please note that when I say fail I don't mean that the web test stops or give a fail status for this case I mean it fails to run the recorded actions somehow because I don't see the data that should be inserted into my database one more thing: if I insert the exact same data manually it is inserted into my system.

  How do I search for specific files in a given Team Project I know we can do this from Windows Explorer after a workspace mapping has been created, but I want to know if this can be done from Source Control explorer itself.

• BrettDerry Accessing the updated power toys when installed using the .msi

  Hi, Perhaps I missed it, but there doesn't seem to be any documentation that indicates how to access the command line power toys after they are installed using the msi package. I had to do a search on my c: and d: program files folders for tfpt.exe to figure out where it installed to. I would consider modifying the installer to add a shortcut to the start menu that opens a command line with a path setting that points to the installation directory for the power toys. At the very least, some text on the download page that specifies that the power toys install to "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server Power Toys" would do the trick. Users shouldn't have to search their own hard drive to find the app they just installed! ...Show All

• Marius F Something Besides Sql Server

  I understand how nice Sql server express is, but I need to find a different way of storing data. I am trying to create a program that I can distribute without forcing the user to install a bunch of stuff (except the framework, of course). I also understand that I could use xml, but I would need to learn a new way to program (I already know how to program against an SQL database). Does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of database I could use, and any links on how to program against it Here is a small example to connect to an access database. using System; using System.Data; using System.Data.OleDb; public DataSet SelectFromDataBase() {      OleDbConnection Conn = new ...Show All
