Visual Studio When will VS 2005 and VSS 6.0 work?
Open vs 2005, select "pending checkin window" for about 10,000 files wait 45 min to 1 hour.. I think you misunderstood me Ray. We do have perf and regression tests for both VS 2003 and 2005. I was just saying that I personally was not in charge of Perf testing, so I could not tell you an exact Perf numbers for different versions of VS. I was only in charge of testing the fix for the pending checkins window for the SP1 which was a regression from VS 2005 RTM. BTW, what breaking problems are you encountering which is a regression besides the bug that was introduced by SP1 Beta and fixed for final SP1 Also, what basic performance problems are you seeing that has regressed from VS 20 ...Show All
Visual Studio Express Editions Online Searches Fail but Community Access/Forums No problem
Just installed Visual Studio Express 2005 (the C++ option). Tried to use the Document Explorer to search online using the Search tab for the string "Simple2D". Got the following error message.

SQL Server Slow VS2005 performance while designing reports
I'm designing SSRS 2005 reports in VS 2005 Professional Edition. I have 2 performance problems that make me really angry: 1. Designing reports takes so long! After each click I have to wait a couple of second, the more complicated the report is, the more time I have to wait. The processor is on 100% during this "waiting". I don't know what he does, maybe updating the .rdl file after each change. But it's really horrible! Right now I'm designing a report for my customer with about 10 data regions and only 30% of my time is designing it, the rest I just sit and wait. 2. Dynamic hiding of solution explorer tab Terrible ! maybe 20 seconds until it hides! Please help! Do I need a fix or is it a common issue I haven't f ...Show All

Software Development for Windows Vista How does the serialization work?
I have the code shown below to serialize a workflow to XML. The workflow consists of custom activity classes, each having its own associated designer. The resulting XML file only contains the names of the activities but not a single property of them. Why are the built-in properties of the activity base classes not automatically serialized Do I need to create a custom serializer for each of my custom activities, even for the built-in properties Is serialization of the activity designer classes also managed by the WorkflowMarkupSerializer or does it only manage the serialization of the activity classes I have many properties for visual appearance in the designers, that I would like to be serialized so that the visual ...Show All
Audio and Video Development iHDSim crash referencing unloaded element
This is both a question and a comment/bug report. Steps to reproduce the bug (iHDSim released 8/29): Load iHD application. In script, after markup is loaded, store a reference to an element on the current page (I used getElementById()). Use the <link> tag in a <cue> to cause a new markup page to replace the current page. Attempt to reference a property of the element stored in (1). The reference attempt is surrounded by try...catch(). iHDSim crashes with a memory reference error. Questions: What is the correct behavior I'm guessing an exception should be thrown. Is there a way to check whether an element exists before trying to reference it's property to trigger an exception It seems that something is getting deleted/garbage ...Show All
.NET Development .net, .mdb, and the framework
I am a consultant and I have commissioned work from a programmer I have hired, the software is written in .net for Windows and is not web based. The problem we are having is causing us to pull our hair out. The problem is this: On the developers WinXP machine with 03 visual studio the application he wrote works phenomenally well. On my machine Win2K no visual studio the application he wrote works phenomenally well. The unfortunate problem is that the CLIENT has installed the same application multiple times (XP SP1 and SP2) and is consistently getting the table display errors, either to do with the database access or something to do with the draw routine. He has installed .NET framework 1.1 from MSFT multiple times but its always a no go. I ...Show All

SQL Server Excel 2007 Compatibility with ProClarity 6.2
When installing the ProClarity plugin for excel, it prompts that it looks for Office 2000 and greater.. I currently have Office 2007. To go over this I installed Excel 2003 along with my 2007 installation. Do you have an idea how to use the plugin over Excel 2007 I do not know if this is good enough but you do not need ProClarity's Excel export(Business Reporter),plugin, tool. You can connect directly to SSAS2005 from Excel 2007. The future of this ProClarity plug-in is questionable. Edit: I understand that a 6.3 release of ProClarity Analytics will be delivered soon. This is the last version. After that you will see ProClarity in Performance Point Analytics. Regards Thomas Ivarsson ...Show All
Windows Forms Adding things other than string to a ListBox
Hi Everyone, Is ListBox capable to contain other controls such as TextBox, ComboBox, and even user controls Or is there any control in Windows Forms can do equivalent things Hi Leon Z, Any control that inherits from control class allows controls (child controls) to be added. Here is an example: for ( int i = 0; i < 5; i++) { TextBox txt = new TextBox (); txt.Name = i.ToString(); txt.Text = i.ToString(); txt.Dock = DockStyle .Top; listBox1.Controls.Add(txt); //adding controls to a listbox. } It depends, like you could have a Panel to do the same, which is more often used as a container for controls.
