  Hello, I'm using Reporting Services 2005. I have image that data value set to take the image from a web server. I also set the sizing to "AutoSize". In the report while the image size is more than I set in the design mode the report, the image grow and all other object in the report move. but while I export to the excel the image size in the excel is the same size I set in the design mode. While I export to PDF the image grow but all other objects are not moving and the image go up on other object. can you help me I'm not sure why this is happening but I suspect it's down to the implementation of each Rendering Extension. You see each output format (HTML, XLS, PDF etc.. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Migrate to another server

  Hi folks I would like to migrate my TFS to another server (which I guess is a common thing to want to do). I have tried rebuilding a server with the exact same name and copying the TFS and STS databases over but that didn't work. I am really only interested in getting the version control over, but if I could do a complete migration that would be cool. Any advice on how I can do this Thanks Will Hi. Sorry for the delay in replying - been too busy to check the forum! Thanks for the link. I had spent many hours going through all the information in these pages, but everything left me with a non working system at the end. I did eventually work out how to do it and I have documented this in a wor ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Event log errors in 2-tier installation

  Hello folks, I have just completed a 2-tier setup of Team Foundation Server. My database tier server are a SQL 2005 failover cluster and my application tier servers are configured as primary and standby. I set up the primary (TFSAPP01) and standby (TFSAPP02) application tier servers as described in the "How to: Configure an Application Tier as a Standby" section of the installation guide. I can connect Team Explorer to my virtual server name and all seems well. The host record for the virtual server currently points to the IP of the Primary application server. My concerns are that on my Primary application server I am getting a lot of Event ID 3021's from source TFS Warehouse that state "TF53007: The application tier name ...Show All

• Visual C++ About Templates

  Hello to all, My question is about templates. As I know (and correct me if I am wrong) when I declare a template class with a class T type parameter, then the compiler generates prototypes of the specif class for each different type parameter. For example: template<class T> class CppProperty { T m_Val; ... }; if in my program make the folowing declarations: CppProperty<BOOL> m_bVisible; CppProperty<float> m_fScale; The compiler will first create the folowing class prototypes: class CppProperty01//a name, whatever { BOOL m_Val; ... }; and class CppProperty02//a name, whatever { float m_Val; ... }; Am I correct so far My question is: if the t ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Chapter playlists

  Has anyone written any code to do chapter playlists yet Suppose I have one title/.MAP file with many chapters in it and I want to allow the viewer to pick a playlist that plays only a few of those chapters, automatically skipping over some chapters in between. Right now I'm catching the chapter system event, checking which chapter just finished, then jumping to the chapter that comes next in the playlist. Since script execution timing varies, I'm having a lot of problems with this method. I am going to experiment with Event s in the title's ScheduledControlList next, but I was wondering if anyone here has a better idea of how to implement this. Yeah, that sounds like a bug - if you jump within the title, ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development menu language

  per HDSpecs, the menu language is very important for application active. we can get it through Player object, but i do not know how to change it. any idea is appreciated! thanks chang Hi, According to the new spec (Aug 2005), the SPRM value cannot be accessed by the advance content. Menu is also a markup page in an application. Every application has a language attribute. The application of a particular language gets selected based on the language of the player (menu language) or the default language specified in the TitleSet element.

• Visual C++ Image compression in Clipboard.

  Hi, Is it possible to controll the image compression while copying it into the clipboard. I'm using CF_BITMAP. May be the compression is not the right word for what I maen. For example: While truing to copy any image from one programm to another by standard copy/paste prosedure (let's say from some image viewer to PowerPoint) the filnal .ppt file size you get is X . In other hand, if you'll paste the same image by "paste special" to the same .ppt file - the file size you'll get is alot less than X . The third way do do it, is to save the image as .JPG file and insetr it to presentation by Insert->picture->from file, and then the file size is even less than the last one ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Ordered Tests sometimes loses one of the manual tests

  I have 1 solution with 3 projects I have several manual tests. I have created several ordered tests which contain a combination of my manual tests. Here is the problem: Hours after I have created an ordered test I find that it has a red line thru it. When I open up the ordered test, I see that one or more of my manual tests are ghosted. I also notice that they seem not to know what project they live in. So, I fix my ordered test my removing the orphaned manual tests and finding it in the left side and adding it to the existing ordered tests. Also you should know that on the left side that my tests seem strange. While I am able to find the manual tests to move over to my ordered tests....I see the same test name but it thinks it is ...Show All
