• Visual Studio Team System Cant Get latest after a delete

  I deleted all the files on my local hard drive that belonged to a workspace and I want to download the latest from Team Foundation server. I try to do this through Source Control explorer but I keep getting a message saying that All the files are up to date. Am I completely restricted from working with the files on disk How does TFS determine that the files are up to date Doesnt it look to disk at all Thanks, Jesse The problem is that the "state of files on the disk" isn't a very good source of information. How can you tell just from examining a file on disk whether it's version 10, 20, or 30 Or a modified file whose base version is 10, 20, 30... I'm sure it's possible, but it woul ...Show All

• SQL Server Computing change from first sales by employee

  I'll use AdventureWorks to frame my question, as then I can extend any suggestions to the possible applications I need. I want to create a calculation which finds the change of each employee's monthly sales amount from their first month's sales. e.g. for each month it will show how their sales for that month differs from the first month they ever made a sale. What I'm struggling with is that one employee may have made their first sale in 2001, while another made their first sale in 20003. I'd like to be able to show how each employee's sales change relative to their first month, i.e. in month 2, month 3, etc. I am thinking that I will need to define a new calculated measure which is the number of months elapsed for each employ ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Does the data warehouse store information about the inner results of ordered tests?

  I have an ordered test that has 3 tests contained inside it. Is it possible to create a report that shows the pass/fail status of these contained tests Or can we only display the results for the top level test Hi Michael, Yes you can create reports about the tests contained within an ordered test. Unfortunately the information about the relationship is only contained in the relational warehouse and not the cube (look at the Result table). If your ordered test looks like this: MyOrderedTest -> fail - Test1 -> pass - Test2 -> fail The warehouse will persist information about each of those three results. Mauli ...Show All
