• Visual Studio Team System Is a separate server required for MSF Agile and Project Management tools?

  Hi, I have been struggling with this problem for weeks and cannot seem to find an answer to it: I would like to use all the MSF for Agile tools in Visual Studio Team Suite but I don't need a separate server. (I am working alone and want to design iterations, etc. I have only one machine) I installed Team Explorer but it only tries to look for a TFS.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Adding numbers in a textbox

  I'm very new to visual basic and i just want to know some simple code so when a button (or picturebox in my case) is pressed it adds a certain number to the number that is already in the textbox. for example when my textbox has the number 10 in it, when i click the picturebox it adds 10 to it to make the textbox read 20.

To add from values from a textbox dim theNumber as integer = Convert.ToInt32(Me.theTextBox.Text) theNumber = theNumber + x Me.theTextBox.Text = theNumber remember to replace "x" with the value you want to add.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. What's difference between Express and Professional?

  I've installed the Express edition beta 1, but I have interesting to the Professional edition. I thought the Professional edition should have more classes than Express edition, but I've never seen any documentation to compare the class library of each edition. Could you tell me the differences of them, particularly about class library Or I'd be happy if I could find the reference manual of XNA Game Studio Professional on the net. Thanks, Hayashida Fine.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Support for Group By, Having etc

  How sophisticated are the query capabilities for LINQ. Can a SELECT includes Group Bys, Aggregate Functions, Having Clauses. I have a sophisticated query which runs within the MS Access query designer, but running the same query using .NET OleDb provider results in an error. The query uses joins to selects which have group by and aggregate functions in them. The error message says there is an error in the Syntax after the From clause. So I'm thinking to return result sets back to VB.NET and use LINQ to further process the data into the final result set. The other alternative is use a lot more code to massage the data into the final result set which is going to be nasty. Sorry but I don't think ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums I need Help creating a specific VBA Macro for my Excel Spreadsheet

  Hello: EXCEL. I am trying to find the best way to create either a formula or a macro/button for the following issue: I have a spreadsheet, which has a specific daily total on cell G19 (Ex G19 = 2,000,000) cells G21 (Ex. -300,000)and G23(Ex. +300,000) are use to enter specific amouts that will either add or subtract from G19. The answer to this addition/ subtration is recorder automatically to cell G25. EX. 2,000,000 -300,000 = 1,700,000 The result on cell G25 (1,700,000) will be the beginning balance for the following day. My problem is, that when I open the spreadsheet on a daily basis, I have to Manually change the amount on G19 to the new Begining balance (Ex. G19=2,000,000 change to G19=1,700,000) and ...Show All

You can store the user accounts in SQL Server, Active Directory, ADAM or any other LDAP store by configuring one of the providers supplied with SharePoint (It uses Active Directory by Default but others can be configured) It is extensible as well. If one of the MS supplied providers doesn' tmeet your needs, you can extend or replace it by writing your own provider. Hope that helps ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Name of user control

  Why does this return an empty string when used in the same user control class Private CaptionString As String = Me.Name Later in the same class, CaptionString returns an empty string. In VB6 I used the Extender object to retrieve the name of the control, but the code above doesn't work. It will only return an empty string when I really want e.g. Button1, Button2 etc. I am not an expert on this but it seems that when the using program adds a 'newbutton' in it's designer, the code looks something like this: Me .Newbutton1 = New buttonForum.newbutton My limited knowledge says there is no way in a 'newbutton's constructor to know who ,(Newbutton1), is asking for it to be created.
