• Visual Studio Team System Nice tool but small annoyances

  Almost beats Subversion but merging tool needs one small detail - when you have two upper windows with original and new source code and you scroll one of the windows left or down - Subversion automatically scrolls the another. That's very useful. If TFS team will fix this small thing - Team System will tie again vs Subversion... Thanks for the feedback. You might try a 3rd-party merge tool: http://blogs.msdn.com/jmanning/articles/535573.aspx ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Plans for sharing project amongst team

  Hello, I just tried importing my work database schema of tens of thousands of objects which went through within minutes, so well done on making the import a lot faster! I was curious as to whether a question I asked a while back has been reviewed. Basically I would really like our team to use data dude for our development, however we all have Team Developer licences (bar a couple of us who have Team Suite licences) and upgrading everyone to Team Suite or switching everyone to DBPro is not an option. All developers develop their own stored procedures, we have no 'Database Professional'. Therefore in order for us to use data dude projects, we would like to know if the scenario below is possible: 1) We have one designated 'Database Prof ...Show All

• SQL Server Need to change Logshipping monitor server

  Hey, is there an easy to change logshipping monitor server I don't want to delete my whole configuration and recreate it from scratch just to add a monitor server. Right now, I don't have a monitor server for one db and when I go to the properties window for the db, it doesn't let me add the monitor server. I have done it in the past by dropping the configuration for Logshipping and then recreating it. Thank you. Hi Tej, Unfortunately you will need to first remove LS in order to alter the Monitor instance. Someone may suggest a dodgy workaround, but I would be very cautious following this advice...

• .NET Development useUnsafeHeaderParsing=true does not solve protocol violation error

  Hi, I've been trying to use C# and .Net 2.0 to talk to a web-service that exists *outside* of our corporate network. This wasn't working due to a protocol violation so I tried a simple reproducible test case using [Http]WebRequest to access *any* page (e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk ). In all cases I get a WebException thrown with the following message: The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine I've spent several hours searching the internet and come up with loads of results that point towards it being due to stricter HTTP header parsing as of .NET 1.1 SP1 (presumably that follows through to .NET 2.0 ) and that the proxy for my network may be returning bad data. It's worth noting that I have *NO* pro ...Show All

• Community Chat Is MS trying to throw away menu bar?

  In IE7, classic menu bar is disabled by default. In Office 2007, there is not menu bar at all. Also the traditional toolbar is gone. I can't find a way to create my own custom toolbar too. What's happening I know menu bar is very classic and not pretty, but it is one single place that I am 100% sure that I can get all the features from a program. I don't want to lose it.

• SQL Server MDX help

  Hi All, I have a calculated measure in my OLAP cube which is a distinct count of one of the keys in the Fact table. This is a semi-additive measure so I need Distinct count of the last child of this measure. How can I do this Is there a built-in function to handle this. I am using AS 2005. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

(3) You want to see the MarketCount for the last month in the higher selected time period (Quarter, or Year). As an example, the MarketCount value ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Load File, Change Text in File, Save File As

  Okay, bear with me if I sound a little idiotic. I'm still new to this. Here is what I need to do: 1. Load file in the program (i.e.- htmlfile1.html, phpfile1.php, textfile1.txt, etc.) 2. Change some text in the file (i.e.- %my tag% ) 3. Save the file as whatever file I loaded (i.e.- htmlfile2.html, phpfile2.php, textfile2.txt, etc.) Here is an example: I have a file named "car.html". Inside "car.html" I have a line that says "Your car color is %mycolor tag%." When I load the file I don't have to see it. I can just enter some text in a textbox, press Enter (or push a button), and what I enter into the textbox will replace the %mycolortag%. I then save the file as "car-updated.html". Is this hard to do ...Show All
