• Visual Studio Team System Allow merge only

  Hello, Is it possible to disallow direct check-ins to a branch but allow merging changesets from another branch Hello, I think you confuse two things - pending changes on the file and then checking it in. To pend merge, edit, delete etc. you need checkout permission, to checkin these changes you need checkout permission. So that are two different permissions. But you don't have 2 permissions, one for pending edit and another for pending merge. So what you can do (and what we are doing internally with Gauntlet ) is to allow users to pend changes and shelve them, and build automated system that will unshelve the changes, build, run tests etc and check them in. Hope I understood you question correct ...Show All

• Windows Forms Parent form control access

  I'm doing some testing with inherited forms. I made a base form containing a toolbar with some basic buttons (add, edit, delete, refresh) Now when i inherit the form i added some properties to hide or show each of these buttons. What i'm trying to do now it accessing the toolbar from the parent form so i can add some custom buttons to it. Lets say i have a from that inherits the base form so that has the toolbar on it and i want to add a extra button to the toolbar (lets say print) I cannot access the toolbar so this is what i have tryd: on my base form i made a property public ToolStripItemCollection ToolbarButtons { get { return this .flatToolstrip.Items; } } When i go to the property window to access t ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) how i used createFromXaml method parametre as xaml file

  Hi Friends, I know that we can create a xaml controls dynamically by using CreateFromXaml method. But The CreateFromXaml method takes a parameter as xaml control syntax but is it possible to send parameter as a xaml file name. or if any other way how i cretae dynamic controls by using xaml file . Hi Dinesh I think that you can't do this directly. Why you dont try using ajax ( atlas ) You can call a webmethod to load your xaml file and use CreateFromXaml in callback function to create you element. cya ...Show All

• Visual C# Storing Font data for use on other PC

  Hi all In my application special user fonts are used and have to be stored in a document. Later this document is printed on another PC, where those fonts are not installed. So I have to serialize not only the font description, but also the font data. How can this be done I tried it with the FontFamily object, but this class is not serializable. Reiner Obrecht Fonts in Windows are stored as TTF or FON files. You need to install these on the target machine. You can then serialize out the font data (family, italic, size, etc) and use it on the target machine. To distribute the font you can attach the font file as a resource in your assembly or add the file to your distribution program. Michael Taylor - 11/30/06 ...Show All

• Visual Basic Trigonometry Woes

  Ahh, it's good to be back. Did y'all miss me Oh well, here's my question. I have asked this in the C# forums, but I am also very keen as to how this could be done in VB.NET as well, so I thought I'd pitch it at you guys, too: I am having a bit of difficulty with coding some trigonometric functions. The primary goal I have at the moment is to find the two unknown angles in a right-angle triangle of which I know all 3 dimensions. While I know how to do this in theory, finding the code to accomplish this is proving difficult. For example: I have a triangle with a base of 6cms, a height of 5cms and thus a hypotenuse of ~7.81. It is a right-angle triangle and thus one of the three angles is 90 degrees. How can I find the other two angl ...Show All

• SQL Server Blocking in Analysis Services

  We have a report in Reporting Services that connects to a Cube. The report has 4 input parameters that are also derived from the same cube.

It looks like the report is creating some type of wait. Has anyone ran across something like this ...Show All

• SQL Server Updating Table Structures

  Colleagues: When I try to save changes made to tables in SQL Server 2005, I get a time out error about 30 seconds after I initiate the save to the changes made to the table. I then have to back out of the "modify table" operation and I lose my changes.  I never had this problem with SQL Server 2000, even in tables with millions of rows - it would take a while, but I wouldn't get the time out messagand the updates would be saved.  Any ideas as to what's going on Thanks, SMM I reported this issue as a bug for SQL 2005 here: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/default.aspx Let's see if someone from MS reviews this issue.  I included reproduction steps for a dummy table with 6 m ...Show All
