• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Problems enabling SSL for a Webservice hosted in a Windows Service

  When I start my windows service which hosts the WCF-Webservice, I get the following error message. Does anybody understand, what this error message means --------------------- Service cannot be started. System.InvalidOperationException: Could not find a base address that matches scheme http for the endpoint with binding WSHttpBinding.

• SQL Server Bulk Insert fails to import data files created on Unix

  It seems to me that files created on Unix machines with line terminator \n, or chr(10), cannot be imported using the Bulk Insert statement. Is this a bug, or an oversight by Microsoft Does this mean that unless one replaces all \n with \r\n, there is no way to use Bulk Insert to import Unix files This is a very strange behavior by MSSQL. Even lessor programs such as Excel and Word automatically recognize chr(10) as a line termination character. Am I missing something, or is this just the way MSSQL is I have never succeeded to convince BULK INSERT to read Unix files, and I find one of these solutions usually works: 1. See if the process that moved the files from the Unix machine can correct the line ends (for example, ftp can ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Creators Club

  Quick question about membership in the Creators Club. I have 3 profiles registered on my Xbox 360. If I enroll my profile (GamerTag) in the Creators Club and upload a game will all rest of the local profiles be able to play the game as well All three profiles are Gold level profiles. Thanks, Mike Hi Mike, The solution is to have the other profiles sign in after you have run the XNA Game Launcher. That way you can play multiplayer games on the same machines. But the subscription holder must always be the one to log in first. Thanks! ...Show All

• Smart Device Development updating a datagrid

  I am using bound text boxes to update datagrid rows. When I try to update the SQL mobile database with Me.TableAdapter.Update(Me.DataSet.table) I get an error that states "Unexpected Error" and "Upadate requires a valid updatecommand when passed datarow collection with modified rows." Is there another statement that is needed Thank you. For clarification, if a row is added, the data base updates with out a problem. If I alter an existing row, then I am not able to save it. I believe designers would add CommandBuilder automatically unless you don't have a primary key. In that case update/insert commands can not be automatically generated. Primary key is a must have in any database, so please add it, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System VS2003 with TFS MSSCCI shows the wrong file status

  Hi, I'm using VS.NET 2003 SP1 with TFS MSSCCI provider 1.1. In the Solution Explorer, some of the resx files are shown as "checked out" status (with the red icon). However I don't have anything checked out. It seems to only happen to some of the language resx files (i.e., Form.de.resx and Form.fr.resx), but not regular code .cs files. How do I clear the checkout status in VS.NET Thanks, Heng-yi Hello, we've tried your scenario on two different machines. In both cases everything worked fine - form was referencing only the resx and de.resx. It wasn't checked out. In regard to step 2 - we were adding files to SCC using VS2003 because it didn't break the changeset in this case and VS ...Show All

Nothing happens when I try to create a new performance session, use the performance wizard or even view the performance explorer. (i.e. I click the menu item and nothing happens.)

• Windows Forms searching..........

  Hi can someone point me in the right direction of searching multiple drives and subdirectories for files. It would be good if it was not a so accurate search eg. if I entered bobby in the text box, it would still display bobbybrown.mp3 in the text box. so it like will find words that are similer.

You don’t as CE 4.2 is not supported by VS 2005. You might be able to use CE 5 project type but there’s no guarantee it would work and you would have to deploy NETCF V2 to the device manually. If that does not work in your case you would have to deploy/debug on some CE 5 device and then run/test on actual CE 4.2 device manually. That is very common, e.g. yo ...Show All
