• shinoy Renaming projects

  Can a project be renamed after the creation process i.e. If I change my mind about the name of an existing project, can I change it Thanks, Maggie Can I ask why this limitation exists Are there manual steps you can take to effect a rename operation [besides creating a new project and moving everything] We are running into serious problems getting automated builds running due to an extremely long team project name. If we cannot change the team project name itself, is there a way to effect a change to the path structure that is setup as part of the build process [to say, rename the team project build directory] Hello Maggie, You cannot rename an existing team pr ...Show All

• akin_l Can't we save "Data Compare" / "Schema Compare"

  I just started using Database Professional and it is a cool and great addition to VStudio. Thanks for all the efforts! Coming to the actual question: Is there any way to save Data Compare My scenario is, once the target database is build, I need to check the static/reference data status. I am able to do this using Data Compare but couldn’t figure out a way to save the list of tables / setting for later use. My apology if this has been answered on this forum. I have failed to search any post related to this. Thanks for confirming Chuck! We don't have that ability in V1.  Hopefully we'll get that in a later release. ...Show All

• Ken Villines Project Alert Administration

  Does anyone know if there is a way to customize or create additional Project Alerts I'm hoping the project alerts are like custom delivery channels in SQL Server Reporting Services where you can develop and install new ones. Our business has some special needs for Projects Alerts so this would be very helpful. Yes, you can create custom project alerts.

• James N Unable to build VS Pro project in VSTS

  Not sure if anyone else has come across this, but i have a project that has been created using VS 2005 Pro and imported it to Team System beta 2 which uses a (ever so slightly) older .Net 2.0 framework so it wont compile. can i get around this at all i tried to install the newer framework but it wont allow the install to run without first unistalling the earlier version & Team System.

• 0xDEAD project creation failed

  I just got a new laptop with Windows XP Media Center edition on it. After getting rid, stopping, uninstalling, etc, all the extra stuff that the OEM fells compelled to install, I downloaded the VC ISO image and installed Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition - I used all the defaults, so I got MSDN and SQL Server Lite as well. However, when I try and create a new project, I get a dialog box that says "The operation could not completed. The specified module could not be found." This occurs regardless of what template I use - General/Empty or CLR/CLR Empty or any other CLR combo. I've tried re-installing several times with no luck. After searching here, I found a thread that blamed IE7 for this and that Service Pack 1 fixes this problem - I in ...Show All

• Andrei Kuzmenkov Benefits with CD install?

  I understand that the CD version does not "need" to be registered. In fact I have been using it for several months now, and as an assembly language programmer from wayyyy back, I like it very much. My question is, how can I access the benefits of registration When I try to log into the benefits page with my MSPassport, it says I don't have permission to access that page. My email is through work. I can't install VS there. The develper tools are on my personal laptop. I don't have an ISP on my laptop (or any for that matter). So there is no way for me to gain the benefits You might be able to email the http://connect.microsoft.com team as this is the site t ...Show All

• Blast TFS + ASP.NET Web Projects + Satellite Assemblies

  I'm not sure if this is a TFS issue or a VS.NET source control plug-in issue, so please let me know if I've posted this to the wrong forum: I'm seeing an issue with the algorithm that determines whether files in the /bin directory of a web project should be automatically added to source control. In my solution, the web projects only have 'Project Dependencies' (or .NET SDK dependencies). This triggers VS.NET to copy the binaries for the dependent projects into the /bin directory of the ASP.NET projects at build time. VS.NET/TFS is generally smart enough to realize that the files copied into the /bin directory as a result of this operation are dynamic and should not be added to source control. However, some of these assemblies contain local ...Show All

• syhzaidi Looking for clarification on CA1057 in the context of constructors.

  With the following code, I get a CA1057 warning: 1 protected MyClass( String uri) 2 { 3 this .uri = new Uri (uri); 4 } 5 protected MyClass( Uri uri) 6 { 7 this .uri = uri; 8 } MyClass.cs(1): warning : CA1057 : Microsoft.Design : Refactor MyClass.MyClass(String) so that it builds a System.Uri object from 'uri', and then calls MyClass.MyClass(Uri). Really, the only "refactoring" of this code would be: 1 protected MyClass( String uri) 2 : this ( new Uri(uri)) 3 { 4 } 5 protected MyClass( Uri uri) 6 { 7 this .uri = uri; 8 } Which gets rid of CA1057; ...Show All

• nhaas How to name buttons with database field values

  To begin, I know very little about VB express. I started out using VB for apps in excel. I could record macros and copy or edit, but I'm having a little trouble writing code from scratch in VB express. Anyway, here's what I'm trying to accomplish. I have about 40 buttons on a user form. I would like for each button's text to be the value of a separate field in a data table (using SQL Server Express) and update when the data table is changed. I have selected all buttons at once and through the data binding option in their properties tied the "text" property to a specific column in my data table. The problem is that when I do this, every button's text contains the first field value in this column. Since the only option when sel ...Show All
