• Visual Studio Team System How do i edit or delete reports?

  good afternoon everyone i was just wondering how do you edit or delete the default reports in VSTS Thanks Hi Kardi, You can edit or delete the reports for the team projects that are already created by going to the following address http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx in your Application Tier.

• SQL Server Aggregate() doesn't aggregate over an expression

  We use CTP3 of SQL Server 2005 SP2. We have the following scope expression Scope ( [Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].Members, [Date].[Month].Members ); ( { [Measures].[Profit YTD] } ) = Aggregate ( PeriodsToDate([Date].[Calendar].[Calendar Year], [Date].[Calendar].CurrentMember) , StrToMember(Extensibility.Replace([Measures].CurrentMember.UniqueName, " YTD", "")) -- remove " YTD" suffix to aggregate over the corresponding standard measure ); Format_String ( This ) = "Currency"; End Scope; However, Aggregate() essentially bypasses the call to the SSAS stored procedure (Extensibiliy.Replace is a custom SSAS stored pr ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 Memory Usage

  We've recently started to use SQL 2005 and I would like to be able to have SQL grab and hold onto the "minimum server memory" value from the DB configuration screen.  SQL 2000 worked nicely, since it would grab the memory immediately and not let it go - regardless of its actual need. I've read the BOL documentation that says SQL 2005 will not grab the memory until it needs it, thus leaving it available for other apps.  However, once SQL has grabbed the minimum server memory, it will not release it.  Since many of our batch processes may not run until late in the night, some other apps on the server could grab the memory and not give it up to SQL when SQL needs it. Is there some way to tell SQL to grab a bu ...Show All

• Visual C# Code convention

  Hello, As a development team leader I have a difficulty to exlpain logically the following case: We write code in c#, designing classes that will hold data(stored in SQL DB). Let's say for example a class which will hold the DB user information. The DB table will hold the followin columns: [UserID],[UserFirstName],[UserLastName],etc... Now the class will hold the following properties: UserId,FirstName,LastName. The question is why using "UserId"(as the property name) and not just "ID" like any other native objects in the .net framework Thanks, Itzik Paz. UserId is more descriptive of what the field actually is.  Id is short for Identifier, and could be an identif ...Show All

• Windows Forms In a numericUpDown, can I separate decimals with a point instead of a comma

  In a numericUpDown if I write 25.6 it, automatically, transforms to this number 256 I have to use a comma to separate decimals. Can I use a point instead of a comma to separate decimals Thanks. That depends on current user settings, which is reflected in application CurrentThread. So if user change the setting for decimal separator from , to .  numeric control will use that setting and use dot for decimal separator. You can handle this in many ways. First don't do nothing because that is normal and it is everywhere in the system not just your application. Second is to change the current thread to some culture that uses . as decimal separator. Third is to create new control inherited from Nume ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XNA Requirements Checker

  Well, I finally decided to write a little utility that checks for the required components of XNA (excluding .Net2.0 because i wrote it using .net 2.0 ) because I've seen just too many threads about the game not working on non-dev pcs. This program lets the user know if they have an outdated graphics card, installs the latest directx using directx webinstall, and installs the xna framework redist 1.0. I bundled it together inside a NSIS installer package because it was the easiest method i knew of. Not the most elegant way, i know. If anyone has a better solution, please let me know. I included the license for both directx and xna, and if i missed any legal issues with redistributing the packages in my own way, please let me know. I ...Show All

• Visual C# How to make a Custom List....

  OK, so I have two classes Address - contains a Address object and contains data like name, phone number, email etc. Then I also have AddressBook - contains a list of Addresses and other functions It seems like there should be a simple step in making an AddressList but how I think there is something I should call like public class AddressList : { } Any help would be great Mike Maybe generic list public class AddressList : List < Address > { } or maybe simple class with list exposed as a property: public class AddressList { private List < Address > addressList = new List < Address >(); public List < Address > List { get { return addressList; } ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unshelve to different branch

  Is there a way to get code shelved from branch A easily into branch B Conceptually, assuming you've modified version X of branch A, and then branch B is cut off of a later version Y, you'd want to do a 3 way merge of: Base: X in branch A Branch 1: Shelf contents Branch 2: Y in branch B ...right Is all this information available through the TFS APIs (shelveset workspace version, specifically) I've never considered writing an extension, but people at work bug me all the time about it and it causes a lot of bad blood between devs and TFS--which I actively try to minimize since I love the system.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Possible Bug about Bubbled Events and Focusable

  Looks like I got to the root of the problem. In my hierarchy (I've made a post about it recently) there are 3 controls: Grid (Top), ScrollViewer (Middle) Grid (Bottom). I'm subscribed for MouseDown of the Bottom, but when I click on the Top nothing happens. After hours of investigations I found that the culprit is.Focusable property of the Middle man –ScrollViewer. Being set to True by default, it prevented my ScrollViewer from both Receiving & Routing of my Bubble MouseDown event. Once I set to False, it starts working. What is really interesting, that the actual value of Focusable property of any of my Grids doesn't make any effect. I do realize that ScrollViewer is a bit of a special control, in ...Show All
