• Visual Studio Team System Upgrading Workgroup to "Real"

  Apologies if this has been asked before, but I looked and didn't find a relevant post. We installed TFS Workgroup edition to mess with it. At this moment we're on the verge of finally "going live" and adding real projects. We have four users now, soon to be five. Eventually though we know we'll blow the 5-user limit. Turns out our Partner level (Gold with ISV competancy, etc, etc) gets us a "real" server license. We got a disk but it was bad so we're awaiting a replacement. So I have a couple of specific questions to put my mind at ease: 1) Are we supposed to just install the "Real" version over top of Workgroup We don't need to blow away everything and start from scratch I hope. 2) In the short term, if we in ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to programatically move active cell in DataGridview?

  When browsing the pre-release documentation for the Datagridview I have not found any code examples on how to programmatically navigate in the datagrid. I have figured out that i should be using the CurrentCell method but can't make it work. Does anybody have more information abou the datagrdiview /Challe Hi Challe, I think you were on the right track with the CurrentCell property.  What you need to do is set this property equal to an existing cell.  An easy way to do this is by passing coordinates e.g. (1,1) into the Rows and Cells collection. Here is a sample: Private Sub Form1_Load( ByVal sender As System. Object , ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase .Load 'add 2 rows (there are alrea ...Show All

• SQL Server Conditionally hidden groups

  Hi, I have conditionially visible groups that are show/hide based on a report parameter. The problem is that I also want to have a document label on this group. When the group is hidden a blank entry appears in the doument map rather that no entry at all. Is this a bug or is there some work around. Thanks. This worked for me. I have two report parameters, Group1 and Group2, and the user selects what field they want to group on. One of the options for Group2 is "None", meaning that they do not want to have a second grouping for the report. In this case, I hide the group header and footer rows, and set the document map label to Nothing. Edit the group, and set the document map label t ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Audio glitching, audioDG to hit 25% CPU

  Hi I've got this annoying problem since the release of Win Vista Ultimate RTM (32bit). When i play audio,games/movies the Audiodg.exe uses 25-30% of the cpu every 30th second or so. This have an BIG effect on the sound, wich crackles every time audiodg uses more than 0% of the cpu. i have noticed that when i play audio in media player 11, the crackling sound is gone, even when audiodg loads the cpu.. This is not heping for games, and movies. These problems did not occour in the beta or rc1-2 releases of Vista Ultimate.

• SQL Server w3wp causing memory paging, crash on reportserver?

  Summary: We host reports off of one server that are accessed and refreshed 24/7/365. On a daily basis, I receive calls about reports taking several minutes to run IF they run at all. (normally these reports take seconds). There has yet to be an actual "error message" associated with this behavior. When I check the server at these times, I will find that w3wp.exe process is taking up about 4G and is causing paging. It seems that once it gets to that point, it will kill itself and all goes back to normal. However, it's a slow death and is impacting business. We're using MSRS 2005. Hosting the reports is the job of this server--no other applications are hitting it. There is a development SQL db on the box, but not in use at this ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista SerializationException "Unable to find assembly"

  I've created a component daPersonFactory that inherits ServicedComponent indirectly - meaning it inherits an abstract base class daDataFactoryBase, which in turn inherits ServicedComponent. This daPersonFactory has a method with this signature: public blPersons SetSelect( daCommand prmCommand, blPersons prmObjectCollection) {blah blah blah} All was working well when ApplicationActivation was set to 'Library', but when I changed the activation to 'Server', the call blows up with a SerializationException that tells me the assembly containing the prmCommand parameter cannot be found (stack trace below). This is undoubtedly a dumb ole newbie question, so please forgive my ignorance. But why is this happening I'm still in develop ...Show All

• Visual C# Printing Options C#

  Hi, Having searched the web without a conclusive answer I hope someone can advise. I need to print an already created word document and at the same time set the printer name, tray, page orientation etc... for the printer the document is to be printed to. I have used System.Diagnostics.Process... however this does not seem to allow the setting of the various printer items mentioned above. System.Drawing.Printing does allow the setting of all these items but does not seem to allow the printing of an already existing document. Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word seems to allow the setting of some of the printer settings but in a slightly different format (eg: set the tray for page one or all the rest of the pages is not quite what I ...Show All

  The version of SP is 20040803.231319. It has been suggested that I post my query in another forum. This I will do. Thanks for responses. Actually I stumbled over that original post and already asked there for your version of psapi.dll. According to the other thread you are running that on WinXP SP2, correct In the directory where BTHelpNotifier.exe is located, is there also a psapi.dll If yes, compare that version to c:\windows\system32\psapi.dll (look on the drive where you installed windows on, if that is not C:) According to the MSDN documentation the above mentioned entry point should be available with XP. -- SvenC ...Show All
