  When retrieving work items using MS Project, dates are not retrieved correctly. The dates can be viewed using Excel or Team Explorer.

• Visual Studio Team System Visual Studio Team System Multiple check out of files

  As we know VSTS allows multiple check out of files. How does it handle multiple check out of files. How does it merge the changes made from multiple locations. VSTS uses diff & merge tools to do the merge. When a file is checked out, TFS notes the base version from which it gets checked out. After edits in that file now we'll have a local version. If server version gets updated by someone else's checkin, we have a server version from base version, and TFS does a 3-way merge when you checkin. See http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=96947&SiteID=1 for pointer to diffmerge tool and how merges are done. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Import txt file to DGV export DGV to dB

  Not sure if this is possible or not but, I have a comma delimited text file that I am succesfully reading into a datgridview. I am trying to take the data imported that is in the datagridview and put it in an access db, and an excel file based on the results returned from a combo box (ie. combobox selection is xml, xls, or mdb, etc...) What I have done so far is set up an acess file, the datatable, and the tableadapter for it. I also creadted another datatable that is bound to the datagridview column names. I then linked the two datatable column names together. It didn't work. Is there another wat to do this Any help is better than where I am now. I appreciate all your input. Thanks! :) Here is part of my code... Dim fileEx ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to record from 'Wave' or 'Stereo Mix' in Vista?

  Hi all, I wrote the following question in other forum space but some MSFT guy told me to try this forum for my question. I hope I could get right answer as soon as possible here. On Windows XP or earlier, I could capture the audio stream to the speacker not from the external device (maybe endpoint device in Vista) like the microphone. In other words, D irectSoundCapture was able to capture from the selected recording device/source line in the Windows record control utility or mixerXXX APIs. And if "Wave Out Mix" or "Stereo Mix" or something similar was selected as recording source line, D irectSoundCapture was able to record the audio stream to the speacker. However, I could not find the way to do tha ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Putting as default browser

  I have been making a internet browser in visual studio and I would like to know how to make my browser be set up so I can put it as my default browser and the same for my friends when they use it. Another thing I would like to know is how can I make my internet browser open up a new window. I have the menu set up but I need to know the code, so when you click on new window a new window will open. I'm still confused and I've had a lot experience with the web browser. By "new window" do you want it on the same form replacing the old one or a new copy of your webbrowser process running separately ...Show All

• SQL Server Use an ActiveX module from a view/stored procedure?

  I was wondering if it is possible to use an ActiveX module from a stored procedure or view I have a table that contains some biochemistry, in particular, glucose and insulin as floating-point values.  I have an ActiveX module (as a DLL) that takes these two values and returns some measures of insulin resistance.  (I didn't write the module - it is available (without source code) from a university). The university provided a spreadsheet that does what I want to do.  I am wondering if I can use the ActiveX module and the function in the spreadsheet in a view in my database instead. Here's how you'd convert glucose and insulin in the spreadsheet: =HOMA2_Insulin(A1,B1) And here's the source code of the function th ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Moving the view in 2D games

  Hello, I'm not sure if this will make sense but hopefully it will. Essentially I working on a 2D platformer as a way to develop a small 2D engine I'm working on that will hopefully help me when creating games in the future with XNA. The game is much like Mario, and like in Mario I need the view to follow the main character while moving non-player characters/enemies off the screen. I was wondering if anyone has developed a view-handling class or other code that would allow for a view to follow my main character on the X axis atleast while moving other objects off the screen while still allowing them to move relative their location. So while my character is running to the right of the screen, all objects are being pushed to the left until ...Show All

• Visual Basic can Serial device data be transmit to web_page.aspx directly?

  Hi there, Please help me. I have a serial WiFi device connected to a barcode scanner. Is it possible to create a "web_page.aspx" which can "talk" to the serial device to transmit the captured data to the "web_page.aspx" It's something like this... Barcode scanner (connected to serial WiFi device) --> [Transmit data via WiFi] --> "web_page.aspx" Previously i've used HyperTerminal (HT) to try out the connection. HT uses TCP/IP to connect to the serial device and the transmittion of data is possible. If it is possilbe to replace HyperTerminal with web_page.aspx, how can i do it Becuase of the isolation in which IIS runs, it would be tricky (i ...Show All
