• Visual Studio Team System Team Foundation server sends multiple email alerts

  I have registered on TFS for alerts on Anything is checked in A build quality changes A build completes However I receive multiple emails for each change set. I can see no pattern or timing as to why I get multiple alerts. They eventually stop for a given change set. Is it possible that I am resistered multiple times for the events You might check to see whether other subscriptions exist for the CheckinEvent and use a discussion-list/mailgroup as a delivery address. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Keyboard State and color manipulation of textures

  Hello, I have a couple of questions and I'll do my best not to babble on. First, a little description of what I'm doing: I'm currently working on a little XNA application that effectively draws a game board in 2D (all textures) and then places new pieces on the board when I press the 'N' key and if I click on a piece, then I can move it. If I click on it once more, it will be 'let go.' Here's the questions: 1) When I press 'N' quickly, I get 6 new pieces (since it cycles through update 6 times before I let go... what can I say too slow on the draw ;) ). To fix this, I created a variable called nPress. Here's the code: bool nPress = false ; KeyboardState keyboardState = Keyboard .GetState(); if (keyboardState.I ...Show All

• Visual C++ F1 help -> "Inforrmation Not Found" ?

  The online help seems to show me the "Information Not Found" page quite often, even for things that it seems to find.  For example, in a .c file I hilight "EnableMenuItem" and hit F1.  I get the "Information Not Found" page, but down in the "Index Results" window it shows 1 topic found, and I just have to click on it, and then it shows up in the main help window.  Why doesn't it just display this instead of telling me information not found Maybe I don't have something configured right   Any help would be great. Thanks, Mark Beiley Software http://www.beiley.com My apologies -- there were problems with the approach of fixing the target topics (by adding a DevLang att ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Refresh in Project 2007

  I am having problems with doing a Refresh in Project 2007. There seems to be no data being brought over from Team Foundation Server. I can make changes to tasks in Team Server, save them and when I select Refresh in Project 2007, Project remains unchanged. I can also select tasks in Team Server and request it to Open Selection in MS Project. The result is the list of tasks all with a duration of 1 day estimated, a start date of today, 0 remaining work. This seems to have started around the time I upgraded from Project 2003 to 2007. Publish does seem to work OK with current information in Project updated to Team Server. Anyone have any ideas With regards to the duration information - is ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Hiding Columns based on named ranges or variables

  Hello, I'm new here and hoping that you can help me out with a problem I have encountered while attempting to write some VB to hide a number of columns in Excel based upon a form. The problem I am having is finding a way to select multiple columns to be hidden, as I cannot use the .hidden property with a range but have to resort to Columns(foo,bar). For example I want to be able to do something like Columns("C:Z").Hidden = True without having to hardcode the C:Z portion. Unfortunately I can't find any other way to parse the columns function except with the quotes and : I attempted to replace C and Z and concatenate the variables with ":" but had no luck as VB did not like syntax. I'm certain I must be overlo ...Show All

• Windows Forms StrongNameIdentityPermission

  Has anyone been able to test a ClickOnce application (with custom permissions) that uses assemblies which use StrongNameIdentityPermission I'm beginning to mark my classes with StrongNameIdentityPermission but when I attempt to run the application using my ClickOnce custom permissions, I'm presented with a security exception. I'm certain that all my assemblies are being signed with the same key. I'm also certain that I'm using the correct public key when using StrongNameIdentityPermission. I'm simply prefixing my UI classes with the following: [StrongNameIdentityPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, PublicKey = " <the pub key> ")] class sealed MainForm : public Form { ... } The security exception is being thrown in the Mai ...Show All

• Visual C++ C++ class definition error C2061

  I just learned C++. All the book examples worked well on my Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. Now I correctly built a large C project that I got from somebody else. I wanted to add a simple C++ file to it defining only one class: class HK { public : HK() {} // Constructor ~HK() {} // Destructor static int Ones(); }; int HK::Ones() { return 1; } This class compiled correctly when done separately. But as soon as I wanted to build it togeter with the correct C code, I got the C++ class definition error C2061. Now, I tried to find the reason, seriously. I have printed 200 pages of Microsoft documentation so far, but have not discovered what this is Help! What could be the reason an ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Relationships with payloads

  I know that at the moment there is no support for relationships that carry their own payloads, but I was wondering if there was something I could do perhaps with views or with the entity model to give me the same functionality without resorting to a simple 1:1 mapping between my objects and my tables. Basically my schema works like this: table A : field, field, field, etc table B: field, field, field, etc. relationship_table: A_ID, B_ID, UserID, DateTime So, I basically have table A, table B, and a relationship table that contains a mapping between table A and table B, as well as the user that created the mapping and when that user created the mapping. The use cases for my application almost always involve filtering the content ...Show All

• SQL Server Is there a load event or run event?

  Is there a load event or report run event for a report that can be accessed I need to have my report jump to a certain url whenever it is run but I cannot use the jump to url because that has to be clicked. I need this to occur automatically. Any suggestions Yes, you can use the Code section in the in the Report properties window. Actually, I was mistaken. You do not need to add any thing in the References Tab. The Classes you need are in the System.Net namespace and are contained in System.dll. Since this is the case, all you will need to so is add the namespace to the beginning of all the WebRequest and WebResponse class names, something like, Protected Overrides Sub OnInit() Dim request As System.Net.WebRequest = System.Net.W ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Copying changing filenames

  Hi all, Firstly sorry for being a noob I am trying to write a program that copies an empty spreadsheet to one location and one with data to another. The bit im stuck on is i want to organise these by dates they come in, so i thought perhaps there is code to break apart the file name (OW_OPOM 2006 09 19 180000) and send them to that folder eg. copy ow_opom20060919180000.csv to s:\ow_opom\ 2006\september\19 If there is any easier way than breaking apart the name like reading the file info date etc please let me know Heres an example of my code so far.. Case "19:29:10" TextBox3.Text = ( My .Computer.FileSystem.GetFileInfo( "C:\Documents and Settings\Salvatore\Desktop\test1\OW_OPOM_20060919180000.csv&q ...Show All

• Windows Forms Detect dataset changes

  A have the following problem. I have a dataset wit the column "name". I hav a winform with a databinding control, and a textbox binded to it and to the dataset.

• Visual Studio Team System Does TFS support pure Kerberos environments?

  We are setting up a single-server deployment of Team Foundation Server (TFS), let's call that machine OURDOMAIN\TFSSERVER. Clients run Visual Stuido Team System (VSTS) and the client machines belong to the same AD domain. LAN authentication level has been configured with gpedit for all machines, clients and servers, to "Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM". Further, Minimum session security for NTLM has been set to require "message integrity", "message confidentiality", "NTLMv2 session security" and "128-bit encryption". Unix servers manage Kerberos. 1) Is the above configuration supported by TFS (i.e. running TFS in a pure Kerberos ne ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Bug? InvokeWorkFlow activity used with Sequential Workflow hosted in Console App

  I've been experimenting with InvokeWorkFlow activity and found what I think might be a bug with the logic in hosting code for the console app.  In the Main method, the WF runtime is instantiated and the started passing in the type for WorkFlow1.  Before it starts the workflow however it wires up a handler for the WorkflowCompleted event that when called sets a AutoResetEvent which the main thread uses to terminate the WF runtime and end the app.  So here's the problem.  I have a workflow that uses InvokeWorkflow activities to invoke 3 separate workflows that I want to run asynchronously.  However, after calling the InvokeWorkflow activities, the Workflow1 sequence ends firing the WorkflowCompleted event.  Thi ...Show All

• SQL Server MDX query based on a subquery

  Hi, I hope that some can help me with a small problem I have got. I am new to data warehousing and MDX and am wondering if it is possible to construct a query based on a subquery (something like a T-SQL IN Clause). Want I want to do is take all the customers who has looked at one product category (ex Dairy products) and see what else they have looked at. I guess what I want to do is create some sort of a filter to be able to only take those users from the measure and slice them by the product dimension again. I am using ProClarity and will also need to be able to use it in there. I am thankful for any help or any pushes in the right direction :-). Kind Regards Stefan Ghose Hi Stefan, ...Show All

• Visual C# Underline text

  I was wondering if there was any way to underline the text of a string... Application: For right now I am outputing a bunch of strings into a message string to display in a message box. Later I will be outputting to a text file. I have searched the MSDN Lib to no avail; if someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. Can you use HTML code in VC# Thanks Thom hang on.... I re-read your post this is natural. If you save the file, then delete text and add the text again (Different text) then yes it will "overwrite" it, its natural. However if you append to a loaded file in the RTB control and append to it, and save it, it will save the entire thing as is displayed in the RTB control ...Show All
