• Visual Studio Team System "The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation." when trying to view Report Site.

  We are unable to access the reporting site for our TFS project. We are able to view individual reports from VS, but we cannot get to the reporting site to edit them. Whenever we try to go to it (By right clicking on Reports->Show Report Site in Team Explorer), we get the following error page: SQL Server Reporting Services Error The permissions granted to user '' are insufficient for performing this operation. The URL it's hitting is: http://[OurServer]/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx ItemPath=/[OurProject ] I've checked the permissions for reporting services using the TFS Admin power toy, and all users have full permissions. Is there somewhere else that we need to grant permission Thanks. This art ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Question: 2D development for both widescreen and standard on 360

  If you want a 2D game to run on 360 for both widescreen and standard TV sets, would the easiest solution be to 'center' your game to fit a standard TV and have verticle bars on either side for people using widescreen What resolution should you develop your game in so it doesn't end up being stretched when running on a 360 Thank You. I'd say your problem is the 5'th parameter. That is usually set to the ratio between the screen width and the screen height (for PC's this is most of the time 4/3 (800/600, 1024/768)). This is why the stretching appers. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom Bin Directory

  I have a large solution that contains around 15 projects. One of those projects is a Service Project that has an PostBuild event that copies it's dlls from it's bin\debug folder to a global BIN folder availible to all projects (about 4 directories up). I have a web service that references those dlls in the same solution. I am trying to get this to work with TFS Build and not having any luck.

In the system I am working on, a transaction has a Start Date and an End Date, and is 'outstanding' after its start date but before its end date.

• Visual C++ VS2005 C++ compiler bug?

  I do not know if this is the best forum to report a MS VC++ compiler bug (please advise if I should post this to another forum).

• .NET Development TypeLoadExceptionHolder

  I'm trying to deserialize an object (serialized in .NET 1.1) in .NET 2.0 and one of the child objects is causing a TypeLoadExceptionHolder to be substituted for it in the SerializationInfo during the deserialization process. This same serialized object will deserialize fine using the same code base built under .NET 1.1. I cannot find any information on what a TypeLoadExceptionHolder object means or why it is being put in the serialization info slot for the child object. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
