• Visual Studio Team System Why can we not delete objects from schema view?

  Hi, What is the rationale for only allowing us to delete objects from Solution Explorer and not from schema view Thanks Jamie The only items which you are not allowed delete from Schema view directly are - columns belonging to tables or views - PK or contraints which are defined within the table itself i.e. stored in that table file. We allow you to open the file to manually delete the entry itself in that table file If the PK or constraints exist in their own file you can delete those from schema view mairead ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Persistent Sharepoint Server Error Events

  Hi - I'm running Sharepoint Services 3.0 and am seeing 3 different errors logged every single minute - IDs 6398, 7076, and 6482.

• Smart Device Development Eureka

  Hi,     I m trying to access the internet in the asynchronous mode for wince 4.2 smartphone 2003 SE using VS2005. I have already tested the synchronous mode for operation on the emulator. However if I try to download the same URL in asynchronous mode, InternetOpenUrl() API call fails with error code as ERROR_IO_PENDING. I have tried out almost all the code samples on the internet (their happen to be only a couple of them it seems). But still this error is very unexpected as the same URL opens in the synchronous mode. Pls take a look at my code here : the url i pass to this function is http://10.20.40.1/foo.html Any help on this would be highly appreciated int CInternetData::IssueHttpRequestAsync(LPCTSTR lpszUrl,L ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Zero-byte Files After Performing "Get Latest Version"

  Has anyone encountered zero-byte files after performing a "Get Latest Version" recursively I'm glad to hear you have found a work-around for your issue. I'm still not sure I fully understand which of the following statements is true: 1) A zero-byte file was checked in to TFS during the migration process and that revision has a label on it that was applied by the migration tool. When performing a get on that label the server properly returns the zero-byte file. The bug was that the zero-byte file was uploaded by the migration tool. or 2) A non-zero-byte file was checked in to TFS during the migration process and that revision has a label on it that was applied by the migration tool.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Updating Qbasic code to Visual Basic

  I found a program that runs fine in QBasic on Windows 98 (about 2 years ago), but since updating to XP have been unable to take screenshots of the output to moniter to create images. Is there any simple way to do this, or do I have to update all the code to Visual Basic just to take a "print screen" This seems highly complicated for the very simple action that I wish to do. :-p Many thanks for any help!! these forums are only for VBExpress im afraid.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Analog stick "holes"

  Does anyone else have odd ... holes ... in the values returned from the analog sticks For example, if I push my left analog straight up very slowly, I see the Y value stay at 0 for a little while, then it jumps to ~0.25 and climbs steadily to 1. Likewise with the X, and it happens in both directions for both sticks. Also, if I peg the stick up and slowly roll it clockwise, Y stays at 1, X at 0, then after a while X jumps to 0.25 and climbs steadily. As I get close to straight to the right, Y approaches 0.25, then drops straight to 0. Am I alone IE: is it likely my hardware Or is this something other people see IE: likely software This behaviour is intentional, read the following thread fo ...Show All

• Visual Studio Reading and writing models in June release?

  Hi, I have used reading and writing of models from and to file in the previous release. This seems to be changed heavily in the June release. I am trying to figure out how to change this to work with the June release, but it would be most helpful if anyone already has some samples. I am trying to setup a Store thourgh store.LoadDomainModels() method, but run into a "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.DomainDataNotFoundException" Jos Warmer You're correct that you need to call LoalDomainModels() first before calling SerializationHelper.LoadModel(). In June CTP release, loading CoreDesignSurface model is required as you have discovered; we've fixed it recently so that if your model takes no depende ...Show All

• SQL Server Is it possible that I change the data's type when I create the DSV in the Visual Studio 2005?

  Hello everyone: Recently, I was responsible for creating a analysis services project with the SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio in Visual studio 2005.

  Hi all of u. I want to login into hotmail or yahoo & retrieve the contact list from hotmail or yahoo using my web page. help me if anyone have some idea. it's very urgent. To get the Messenger buddy list of a user, try looking into the Contacts Control . You cannot (as far as I know) strip all addresses from it (also known as "scraping"), but you can make your application interact with it. Danny Thorpe has an excellent blog detailing what you can do with it (and often how, as well). It's the best thing next to writing an application to log in to the Messenger servers directly (which is not allowed, and its unrecommended). ...Show All
