• Visual Studio Team System Field.IsEditable is not showing as editable for the Title/Description type.

  Hello, We want to get all the editable fields from a particular work item. When we iterate over the fields and use the Field.IsEditable property, for Title and Description it returns FALSE. We are using the standard Agile project template for our Task type. When we query the FieldDefinition.IsEditable is returns TRUE, however, for many fields this returns true on fields that shouldn't be editable. (Such as CreatedDate, etc.) How can we really determine if a particular field (on a specific work item) is editable or not Thanks, ~Joe Hi Joe, Unfortunately, .Open() does a round trip to the server so it is quite slow. I'm a little surprised that PartialOpen did not work for you. That is exclusiv ...Show All

• Visual C# Difference "Designer.cs" & "designer.cs" WinForms

  Hi, I am doing C# development on Visual Studio 2005. But, as all would know in VS2005, usually the Windows Forms will generate the "Form1.cs" and "Form1.Designer.cs" at the design time simutaneously. But, I forget what I did during the development time. The "Form1. D esigner.cs" became "Form1. d esigner.cs". But it still can be compiled after the letter case had changed. Eventually, I need to standardize all the files name. So, I rename the "...designer.cs" to the original "...Designer.cs". But, the IDE cannot compiled it anymore. Any ideas to rename it back to the original file name Where does the reference to the designer file located Is it in the csproj file or at other resource file Which file is in control of the designer file Than ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions which form event should i use?

  Hi, I am going to create some fading effect while exit the form, which form event should i put in the code to start the timer (the effect code is put in the timer) I tried "Form1_formclosing" event but does not work.... Any one can help Thanks. Hi, using timer is not good idea, because before first timer tick form will be already closed. Here You have a good code : Private Sub MainWindow_FormClosing( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me .FormClosing Dim egg As Byte = 0 For egg = 0 To 9 Me .Opacity = 1 - egg * 0.1 Me .Refresh() System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(50) Next End Sub ...Show All

• Visual Basic Listbox - SelectedIndexChanged Question

  hello. A question please. When I fill the datasource property of my listbox, that executes the code of the selectedindexchanged event automatically. is there a way to avoid that in the begining (I mean when I load the datasource property of the list). Thanks... Or simply using a variable on the form which you can set and in the SelectedIndexChanged event the first thing you do is look at the variable and if its set to a certain value exit the sub otherwise do you processing - so the event is still firing but you are just choosing to do nothing until you want to process it. This is often done like this for stuff processed in the initial establishing of data on the form. So during the form load event ...Show All

• SQL Server Need a sysadmin login

  We’re running mixed mode authentication on our SQL Servers. To make the server “safer” builtin\admininstrators no longer have sysadmin role on the sql server. If there is only one login with sysadmin role, and we lose track of the password, is there any way to recover it How could we reset the password or create a new sa account with a new password This situation has not occurred, but I’m worried about how to recover from it should it occur. This question relates to SQL 2000 and SQL 2005. David Zokaites, DBA & Software Engineer Jens, Thanks for the information. I thought the scenario might lock me out of sysadmin on the sql server. I will certainly make sure we have a secondary ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System History of merge's?

  Is there any way to get history on if a particular changeset was merged into a particular branch If not, it would be nice if there is some way to pull this off. I guess if you had a work item associated you could relate both changes to the same work item, but sometimes there is not a direct correlation. In this case we don't use work items yet and a developer should have done a merge of changesets, but I can't think of an easy way to tell other than just try to compare files. Granted since merges involved manual steps to do merging, a merge may not be able to have a direct correlation with a changeset, since there may have been changes to the changeset to do the actual merge, it still would be an interesting view as it at least track ...Show All
