• Visual Studio Team System TFS authentication issue after server is removed & added to domain

  Hello, Since today we can't connect anymore our TFS server. What happened is that our IT department removed by mistake this TFS server computer from our Active Directory domain. But after adding it again to the same domain, we still have an authentication issue. The behavior is the following: whenever we start TFS Explorer on any client computer, we are now prompted to enter a user name and password. This was not happening before (authentication was happening automatically). Entering any valid TFS users doesn't work and the prompt appears again. If we press the cancel button on this dialog box, then the following error message dialog appears: TFS31003: Your user account does not have permission to connect to the Team Foundation Se ...Show All

• Visual C# Viewing runtime errors

  I'm currently using NotePad to write a simple C# application. I simply use cs.exe to compile my windows application. How can I view the runtime errors when using this approach The compiler does not catch the runtime errors obviously. My .exe simply stops executing without any error messages. I do notice one thing, in my task manager I notice that a process called DW20.exe runs for a brief second and terminates. Is the runtime error being logged somewhere in Windows Thanks in advance.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office ASP.NET and Word

  I need some design guidance. I currently have an asp.net application that has some word documents that are used as templates and are stored in xml wordml format. I use standard XML processing to replace various parts of the document then send the processed XML document out in the response stream. This works great if the user has Word 2003 installed but now have to find a solution to support other versions of Word, etc. I began to think I could simply keep most of the processing the same (processing a WordML document) but instead of sending the WordML format document to the client have the document first converted to a standard word doc on the server then send to the client. I thought this may help me get around the incompatibilities wit ...Show All

• SQL Server Reports exported as Excel cannot be read by Mac version of Excel

  I searched the list but did not see anything related. I cannot open a file directly exported from RS in the Excel format. If I open the file in the Windows version and then close it, no need to even save it, I can then open it with the Mac version of Excel. The file size after closing is about 2K less so the RS program is adding something onto the file that the Mac version does not like. It will crash Excel when trying to open. I cannot export the report as CSV as it will not correctly import into Excel on the Mac. Is there a work around for this Thanks. --sean Hey, I'm also have this problem, I read that the SP2 of SQL Server 2005 fix this problem, but we are having some problems with SSAS and the SP2, ...Show All

• Windows Forms Communication between usercontrols and event delegates

  Hi, I am developing a winforms application. There are more than 10 usercontrols and these controls are loaded dynamically when needed. All these controls are derived from a base user control. My question is, what is the best way to communicate the usercontrols between themselves and between the main (container) form. (button click in one usercontrol will reload another one, textchanged on usercontrol will change textbox in the main form etc.) Right now i am using static declared events but i am not sure this is a good idea. I may not have the best solution for you, but I hope I can give you some ideas. One model might be to place all of the event handlers for the UserControl clicks in the form that con ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can't add a function by mapping a Windows message using the ClassWizard

  Hi, I failed in mapping a Windows messge such as OnCreat in my View class using VS 2005 ClassVizard. An error message saying "Add/remove operation is impossible, because the code element 'xxx' is read only" appears. Please help figure out a solution. Thanks. Jason First, OnCreate is not a Windows messge; WM_CREATE is a Windows messge. That is probably not relevant to the problem, but use of proper terminology can avoid confusion. Second, check to ensure that the .h and .cpp files are not read-only and that you have write-access to them. That is the first thing I would check if I got a message such as the one you are asking about. ...Show All

• SQL Server How do I write an OUTER APPLY without a table function?

  I'd like to select the last unshipped order, or if none is open, the last shipped order, for each customer. I noticed that all the examples on line for OUTER APPLY involve table-valued functions, but I have read (in a book I don't have here) that a subquery can work. The following shows what I want, but it isn't valid syntax: SELECT c . CustomerName , oa . OrderNumber , oa . Status   FROM Customers c   OUTER APPLY (     SELECT TOP 1 CustomerID , OrderNumber ,     CASE WHEN ShipDate IS NULL          THEN 'due ' + CAST ( DueDate AS VARCHAR )          ELSE 'shipped ' + CAST ( S ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to get(set) cursor position in my service before logon?

  Hello, I noticed that an interactive service cannot run in vista any more. This issue is good to security, but bad news for me using an interactive service. My service is simple and needs only 2 functions - one is getting cursor position and the other is setting cursor position. These 2 functions can be implemented through one other user application after user logon. But before user logon, how can I do this job Thank you in advance. ...Show All

• SQL Server how to do this in SSIS? soory if i m a noob

  Hi all, Am trying to setup a SSIS package between a sql2000, sql2005 source and a sql2005 destination. I have 2 concerns, firstly, due to performance reasons (we have 2 huge legacy databases): After 1st run, Source table has: 1 - 1000 records Destination table has: 1 - 1000 records For 2nd run, Source table has: 1 - 1500 records Destination table has: 1 - 1500 records How I insert only the 1001th record - 1500th record, without touching the 1st to 1000th record Secondly, if there are any changes in values in the records 1st to 1000th record, how to I compare and only update the value that has changed Is there any particular configuration setting in sql that I can use Many thanks for any help provided. ...Show All

  Hi Can anyone tell me the difference between Microsoft Pre-release Software Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" - January Community Technology Preview (CTP) (Installable Bits) and Microsoft Pre-release Software Visual Studio Code Name "Orcas" - January 2007 Community Technology Preview (CTP) Both have different links yet similar files - the latter has one 700MB extra.

• SQL Server Where to find detailed error report when setting up mirroring fails

  I had a problem with mirroring that I only was able to resolve when I attempted to replicate instead. Replication gave me an error message that expained the problem; mirroring simply failed. Is there any place where mirroring logs the details of what it is doing & why it is failing BTW, the problem was that the server name was changed after SQL was installed. Although i knew this, the forums indicated taht SQL 2005 automatically picks up the new name after it is restarted. This apparently is not true... Thanks Dave S You can get the mirroring's eror log file from this path. C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\LOG Hope this can help you. Best Regards, ...Show All

• .NET Development Resources & ImageLists

  I have a project in which I use many icons/images. For some of the UI elements, you bind design time on an ImageList. Then per item, you assign an ImageList key or item number. For example: treeview1 is has imageList1. Node1 then has ImageKey "NiceIcon". So far so good. To manage all my content (Icons and literals and Images), I make use of the outstanding Resource Manager. This is where the problem occurs: I cannot link embedded resource items in an ImageList! When I add an Image design time i VS2005 in an ImageList, I have to choose an image from disk. Gone Resource Manager advantage. No single place to manage mij content any more. So I thought it might be a solution to replcae the code in the designer class, and put in these lines ...Show All
