• Visual Studio Team System Share a file to a folder?

  Hi, Is it possible in TFS to share a file between folders. For example I have an xml file that gets managed in one location but I also need it to exist in one of two other physical folders. I tried in VS to add existing item, select the file and click "Add as link" but it does not get added. Any ideas Thanks Donal only way out is branching , you can branch and update periodically , you can write code for this also . I had same situation and here is my question to Brian Harry http://blogs.msdn.com/bharry/archive/2006/09/26/772371.aspx#1053904 Does SP1 support something like "linked files" in VSS We are working on a multi-location parallel development projec ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Reading Lines in a Text File

  Hi I currently have a text file (textfile1) which contains 40 lines. Each of these lines contain data stored in the following way: nameofthis = value nameofthis2 = value nameofthis3 = value What I would like to accomplish, is to read these values, with a variable assigned to each "nameofthis" variable. I thereby mean that the program should read each line, check what the name before the "=" is, and then check if the variable for this value exists. If it does, it should read the value after the "=", to the specified variable. For instance: TEXTFILE CONTENTS (textfile1): name = Johannes surname = MySurname email = me@myself.com PROGRAM: ' Variables Dim name as String Dim email as String ' Read the ...Show All

• Visual C++ Please Help Me...

  Hi everyone, My name is Krishna Prasad, i recently joined America Online(AOL-BDC) and currently working on VC++. Actually, am facing here a problem and badly need a soluiton for it... As, am a fresher i'm in a sort of confusion.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Help in capturing CMD output

  Hello again. I have been working on quite a few programs lately. One thing I’ve been working on is a program to help me with my Game Design, Halo CE. One of the tools that are used is in the creation process is tool.exe. It’s a command-based program but I’m trying to make a GUI for it. I know of the “variable = New ProcessStartInfo” but it just doesn’t seem to work with this. Xdfgsdfga Appreciate This is my code to read the output of the tool.exe program: If Trim(txt_ToolCMD.Text) = "" Then MsgBox("Please Enter A Tool Command.", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, "Tool UI Error") : Exit Sub If chk_Append.Checked = False Then txt_ToolOut.Text = "" Dim exe As ProcessStartInfo Dim sLine As String ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista OwnershipTimeoutSeconds does not work

  Hi, In order to be scalable we have two servers running our workflows. Any server should be able to take over at any time. The workflows running on the servers make asynchronous requests via msmq to other services. The replies should be able to come back to any one of the servers and still be processed. What happens is that when the reply comes back to a server which did not make the original request (and then wait on an event), the server cannot fire the event on the persisted workflow, because it's still "locked" for use by the workflow. I am currently configuring the workflow instance ownership to be 2 seconds, and it takes longer than that before the response comes back to the server. I'm using the released version o ...Show All

• SQL Server Cannot enlist with MSX server

  We have a server with the default instance and 2 additional named instances running SQL 2000 SP4. Recently I installed another instance for SQL Server 2005. We also use MSX/TSX approach to manage the servers so I tried to enlist the SQL 2005 instance with the master server using the msdb .. sp_msx_enlist @msx_server_name = N 'SQLMON' , @location = N 'Datacentre.

I can use the date but what if someone changes the date on their computer Can somenoe tell me what is the best way to protect my software The only solution I have come up with is to force the customer to do verification checks online every 10 times they use the software.

• SQL Server Connecting to SQL Server on a different port

  I have a server running SQL Server 2005 Dev behind a firewall that blocks the default SQL Server port. So, I changed the port that SQL server uses to another port. How do I connect to the database instance with SQL Server Management Studio. I have tried: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\MSSQLSERVER xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:port\MSSQLSERVER name.of.machine\MSSQLSERVER On all of these, I get an error 25 - Connection string is not valid. I have the surface area configured correctly (i.e. named pipes and TCP/IP are both turned on), and the sql server browser is running. I can ping the server just fine, and when I go to GRC.com and do a shields up report it lists my port of choice as being open. What am I missing I also set the native client configuration's default p ...Show All
