• Visual Studio Team System TF53010 An unexpected exception occured while calculating code churn

  I am trying to figure out why warehouse processing is failing. I turned on logging in the web.config before using the controller service and getting the errors below. Does anyone know how to go about fixing this Even if it means manually deleting offending rows in the database itself [DW] [Info, PID 16004, TID 16864, 18:04:42.898] Microsoft.TeamFoundation.VersionControl.Adapter: Calculating differences.

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums How do i reference a cell in an unopened workbook?

  I want to get information from a network drive that i have access to and all users will have access to.  Would it be something like workbooks("c:/folder/workbookname").worksheets("Sheet1").range("a5")   Also, is there a way to shorten things a bit so that I only have to declare the location once then use a variable to reference it after that Hi, You can make use of the fact that a cell formula can read from a closed workbook. All you need is a temporary cell in the activeworkbook in which to put the formula and read the result from. Sub Test() MsgBox ReadFromClosedBook("c:\folder\", "workbookname.xls", "Sheet1", "a5", Range("A1")) End Sub Function ReadFromClosedBoo ...Show All

• SQL Server Couple of questions over SSRS over SSAS

  I've created a sales analysis cube using SQL Server 2005 and want to do some reporting using SSRS. My problems are as follow: 1. How can I change the report parameter from a Date type into a member of the Date dimension I need to do this because it's easier for business user to select the date and I can set a sensible default to it. 2. How can I create a hourly sales analysis report for all branches If I add a chart into SSRS, I will get all shop data summing up right now into a single chart. Instead, I would like to have a chart for each branch. My business user will not accept to manually select different branch and generate the required chart. 3. How can I add a percentage to the corresponding value My business user may want to view the ...Show All

• Windows Forms Control.Leave() is not called when a user selects a ToolStripItem.

  I have a form that contains TextBox controls that the user enters data into. In the TextBox.Validating() and TextBox.Leave() methods, I validate the data that the user entered. This works fine when selecting other TextBoxes on the form. The problem I am having is a user enters data into a TextBox and clicks on a Save button in the ToolStrip or a Save menu item in the MenuStrip. The TextBox.Leave() and the TextBox.Validating() methods do not get called when the focus is given to the ToolStripItem. According to the MSDN documentation on the Control.Leave() method, these calls should happen when the focus goes to the ToolStripItem. Can someone please explain why this does not happen, and if there is a workaround Thanks, Doug ...Show All

• Visual C++ Conversions string <-> int in C

  Hi everyone! Does anyone know how to convert a string to an int and vice versa in C (not C++, only in C) I need it because I have to create txt files incrementally, whose names are 1.txt, 2.txt, ...etc. Thank you very much! Yes, it works, but the program crashes if I try to put the file into a folder (that already exists), like that char filename[ 10 ]; int number = 190 ; sprintf(filename, "output//%i.txt" , number); pFile = fopen (filename, "w" ); // pFile is a FILE* for (i= 0 ; i< 2 ; i++) { for (j= 0 ; j< 3 ; j++) { fprintf(pFile, "%f " ,*(ARRAY+ 3 *i+j)); // ARRAY is a matrix pointer } } fclose(pFile); It gives no problem if the filename is for in ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Converting from Google Maps

  I have a map here - www.ukmartin.com/googlemaps/uk.html It features a set of pins in the map which have their latitides and longitudes listed in an XML document. Is there an easy way to use the same design of map pin and the XML data in a Live Map (see http://www.ukmartin.com/googlemaps/stadia.xml ) Thanks in advance for your assistance Martin Right well there are two features that you have to be willing to cope with in going GeoRSS: 1) Auto-zoom feature on the layer when its added to the map 2) Less control of the layer:  You can only turn the layer on or off.  That means that you have no control of the pins inside the layer.  That includes not being able to add events to the pins and changing the ima ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView - stop changing current row - when using the 'Enter' button

  Hello, I have a small datagridview (datagridview1), which on this form has only one editable field. The issue I am concerned with, when editing the data in the only column/row in datagridview1 and hitting the 'Enter' button, it forces it to the next row. How do I stop this Thanks This works just fine, but I am having a lot of problems trying to customize the DataGridView. Therefore, is there someway to do this using a DataGridView that has already been created by droping /draging and has a customized BindingNavigator. Everthing is perfict except the "Enter" key in editing control. A simple example of the code is below: Public Class Form5 Private Sub MbdataBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal ...Show All

• .NET Development XmlSerializer issue? Mixing classes that do and don't implement IXmlSerializable

  Hello, I'm experiencing an issue with XmlSerializer. Please test the commented short C# code below. I'm quite sure it worked before, although it had been a month or two ago. I'm not aware of upgrading the .NET Framework 2.0 since. The problem occurs whenever I'm deserializing a class that doesn't implement IXmlSerializable but contains instance of a class that does. In such case the member holding such instance is the last one that is properly deserialized, after that the XmlSerializer silently ignores the rest of the xml file and finishes deserialization. I wonder whether the error comes from my side, but as I stated, I was succefully using this approach before. Here the program: using System; using Sys ...Show All

• Visual C++ Problem with CString Variable
