• Visual Studio Team System creating functional test?

  hi fellows can any one please sort me out how to do functional test in vsts. There is nothing directly out of the box with Team System for automatic functional tests. But you have: Manual tests: which are basically a document where you can write the actions you should do to test some functionality of the system and the expected results, but they have to be run "manually" following the document, althought the answer if it have run completely ok, will be recorded in test results. Unit test: well, sometimes functional test can be "simulated" or created with unit tests, but this must involve a serious work of the tester group to check how can this be done, and usually requires very ...Show All

• SQL Server Calling commands from the cmd prompt

  I have a series of commands that I need to run which decrypt, unzip, and rename They are all one line commands when entered on the cmd prompt, is there an easy way to do this in ssis or should i write an exe and call them from there Thanks Yeah Frank is correct on this one. The execute Process task shells to a command prompt automatically for you an dissues pkunzip or whatever tool you're using to decompress the file. The Script task in this case would be an overkill. You can make the Execute Process task typically call PKunzip.exe in the command (make sure you point to the full path) then the argument would be the file name and any switches for override. --Brian ...Show All

• SQL Server Could I Resolve a KPI's Data Value in a SSIS Script Task?

  Hi, thanks. I could rosolve a KPI's Data Value by ADOMD.net from any .net application. Now I want to do the same thing from the SSIS Script Task. Could I do that SSIS Script Task use a VBA Script.

• SQL Server Error: Subreport could not be shown.

  I am using SQL Server 2000/Vis Studio 2003 to make a report with three subreports. The main report has one shared datasource to a sql server 2000 database. The subreports all use one, different shared datasource to a different sql server 2000 database. They two databases can link together by employee id. It all works fine in Vis Studio, but when I deploy I get the error: Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have made sure that the subreports are not wider than space allows on the main report. If the problem is that of using different datasources, then how else can I accomplish this (I already tried linked server but ran into bugs). Thanks Have you checked the server log to see if there a ...Show All

• SQL Server Date grouping

  Hello All, Noob here. Trying to group by date in report and it is not working as expected. The date fields include a date/times i.e. 12/23/2006 9:45:00 AM. I can change the date properties to make the data appear as 12/23/2006, but when I group on date, it returns multiple rows showing the same date instead of just one row with the one date. The data is aggregated for the grouping so it seems like it should work properly. Here is an example of what I am trying to do. Current... Date Data 12/23/2006 9:45:00 AM 12 12/23/2006 10:00:00 AM 8 12/23/2006 10:15:00 AM 5 Want it to be... Date Dat ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions universal variables

  Okay, I'm not sure if it's possible, but here goes: I know that in VB6, it was possible to declare a variable in the declarations (at least, I always did, and it worked) and then it would be there for the entire program. However, converting one of my projects over into VB2005, I have run into an error. In all of my subs, the variables are now "privately" declared, and I have no idea how or why it doesn't work anymore. My coding resembles this: dim a, b, c, d, e as decimal Private Sub Button_Click( ByVal eventSender As System.Object, ByVal eventArgs As System.EventArgs) Handles Button.Click Call determine_variables(a,b,c,d,e) Call show_variables(a,b,c,d,e) End Sub Sub determine_ ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista problem with TBS API function Tbsi_Context_Create

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Add in for Outlook: How to add menu bars to mail items etc?

  What is the best way to add a menu bar, with buttons, to mail items and to contact items. I have tried the following below, and this usually works, but it sometimes loses the event handler on the button in the mailItem, though not in the contact item. In short, I call addMailMenuBar and addContactMenuBar whenever a new inspector opens, and in those methods I check whether there already is such a menubar. If there isn't, I add the buttons and the event handler.
