• Visual C# closing a program completly

• Visual Studio Team System suggestion for TreeDiff

  It would be helpful if when you select a range of files in the treediff UI, it would give you the option to undo changes regardless of how many items you selected didn't have changes. Use Case: 1. Select 5 files. 2. 3 files have pending changes 2 have none 3. Undo option is available and when executed ignores the selected files without pending changes. Considering that when you perform the undo, the undo pending changes dialog appears with the items you had selected in the tree, it gives the user plenty of safe guard to examine the files to be undone. Perhaps instead there could be a way to filter on only items with pending changes so that, if I so chose to undo a whole range of files, I can witho ...Show All

• .NET Development .NET 1.1 vs .NET 2.0 behaviour with Image fields

  In not .NET 1.1 and 2.0 the System.Type mapping for a SqlDbType of Image is byte[]. If you use this type to create a SqlParameter (with a value of DBNull.Value) and then use this in a SQL statement of the form "Update table Set ImageField = @parm where ......" Then in .NET 1.1 it works, but in 2.0 you get an Exception "nvarchar is incompatible with image" How can you determine the correct System.Type to use for Image fields, and why is the behaviour now different The application code is generic and not tied to specific database designs. Thanks Tony sorry if I am being confusing/misunderstanding, I apologise. From the code snippet, you are inserting a b ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Deploying CABs to a device via ActiveSync using an MSI with installer class

  I'm trying to deploy CAB files from my application to a device using a MSI project using ActiveSync. This method requires the CAB and ini files to be in a sub directory of ActiveSync. So I'm using an installer class to copy the CAB and ini files from the default c:\programfiles etc to the ActiveSync dir. The default dir is hard coded. This method is described in the msdn "Deploying >NET Compact Framework 2.0 Applications with cab and msi file" After a bit of tweaking this method works ok as long as the user does not change the installation folder from the default to something else. If this happens the installer class fails to find the cab and ini files and consequently the deployment fails. Is there any way of ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Print Spooler won't start

  Can anyone help solve this problem, all printers have dissappeared from printers and faxesm any attempt to add printer says print spooler not running. I have followed Microsoft suggestions for restarting and get errors 1068 and 1053, nothing seems to work. I am trying to avoid a reformat if at all possible. The problem occured shortly after installing a new printer Lexmark 6200, though not immediately. I was able to use the new printer for 2 days, I then took my laptop to work and used it with other printers at work. At home again used the Lexmark and then next day at work no printers. A problem with the lexmark looping in scanner mode was stopped by removing the usb cord which iam concerned may have caused some sort of corruptio ...Show All

• SQL Server Document Map not appearing in Web Application

• SQL Server Automatic failover... help

  Hi there, We've recently set up a Principle, Mirror and Witness configuration with the Mirror and Witness in a separate building to the Principle. All three are part of the same domain (DMZ) and are different servers, the buildings are connected via a fiber optic cable. All servers and SQL Server instances are logged in with the same domain admin account DMZ\esAdmin. Mirroring is all set-up and the databases are synchronized. Every once in a while some (not all, normally 6 out of 15) databases will switch roles and become active on the mirror.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Using the Cue object generates exception with multiple .Play calls

  I had entered this as an issue, but it has now been closed and marked "As Designed". I'm pretty confused by this. https://connect.microsoft.com/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx FeedbackID=198351&SiteID=226 [Note: You need to be signed into Connect first, before clicking on links to Connect will work.] So basically, we are supposed to always use the dictionary object to look up a sound that needs played over and over again, instead of creating a Cue object to reference and replay that sound That just doesn't sound right to me. Has anyone else noticed this issue Is there just something that I'm missing I'd really like to understand why this is "As Designed" I guess.
