• Visual Studio Team System Auto-levelling in Project and integration with Work Items in Team System

  We have a scenario where we have constructed a project plan where single resources are allocated to tasks in MS Project (due to a limitation with integration to team) and using the auto-levelling feature so that resource assignments can be determined in line with priorities etc. We have published the initial project plan 'tasks' to team, so that each person is able to see the tasks that have been assigned to them and roughly when they have been scheduled to start them as pre-determined by MS Project. When the resource begins a task, they are able to enter the ''Actual Start'' date in a customised field against the task in MS Team as well as 'completed' and 'remaining' work number of days. When this is subsequently refreshed in MS Projec ...Show All

• Visual C++ ListBox Scrolling

  Hello all! I seem to have a problem. I have a listbox that is constantly updated, but when the number of items is greater than the available space and the scrollbars appear, it doesn't show the newer items. I know that's not what it was meant to do, but I need it to automatically scroll down. Is there anyway Thank you! This forum is for the Visual C++ product itself, not for Win32 API questions.

• Visual Studio Team System Binding Information

  Hi all , We recently moved to TFS from VSS. We are still using Visual studio 2003. while using VSS , when i select the change source control options in the Visual studio, i would be seeing both the path of my physical folder of my project location(C: drive) as well as the logical path of the VSS($root/project) where it is binded.

• Windows Forms TextBox with AutoComplete

  Hi, I am trying to populate AutoCompleteCustomSource (for my TextBox) only when the user hits the <Enter> key. I.e. when the user hits the <enter> key in the TextBox, i want to (a) send the text to the server, (b) do a server-side search for matches, (c) return the set of matches to the client, (d) populate the AutoCompleCustomSource programmatically, & (e) then display the matches in a drop-down. The difference here relative to how one normally sets this up, is that i want to issue a server-side request for the list of matches, & dynamically populate the AutoCompleteCustomSource. Now, i am able to do (a) thru (d), above; just not (e). Any idea how i'd do this Thanks, Mark ...Show All

• Visual Studio Reporting Services Excel Export

  Hi We're exporting from a RS report to XL. If there is no numeric formatting in the report all numbers are exported to XL Correctly as numbers with lots of decimal places. If I apply a 2 decimal place format in the RS report, by the time the numbers get to XL they are being "stored as text" according to XL. Once in XL, they can be converted, but it's a complex report and would be a pain to convert them back to numbers. Does anyone know how to format numbers in the report and still have them export as numbers Thanks Thanks guys, I used the "=round(field.value,2)" formula in each numeric cell on the report to solve the problem.

• Visual Basic LoginForm in VisualBasic .NET edition

  Hi, I'm playing around VB.NET and trying to learn different things but the first mistake I have notice is that i forgot to install the MSDN files on the computer. Oops! Oh well. I noticed that inside the File-New-File , there is an option for a LoginForm. I have selected the LoginForm and have it added to my program. The next thing that I have done is added a table to my database called User containing the following fields: User_ID , User_Name , User_Password , User_FName , User_LName , and User_Access_Level . I want my LoginForm when the 'OK' button is pressed to check the db for the Username and then see if the passwords match. If so then open the particular form, if not then popup a msgbox with the reason why it couldn't log them in. C ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) UsernameToken over Certificate authentication

  I need to use client certificate to validate the domain of the request and user name token to validate the user in that domain. I know that this is a classic case for federation but lets ignore that for the purpose of this post. So the first authentication of the request was through certificates, which was relatively easy. Instead of passing user name and password as arguments to a method, I would like to send a user name token in the request. On the server side, I would like to validate the user credentials in the WCF plumbing. How would I go about doing the second part given that it has to happen right after the first part Thanks. Out of curiosity, does your example actually send both tokens [username & certificate] to the se ...Show All
