• Visual Studio Team System Does all of the source need to be copied?

  Hi... I've just executed by first build using TFS... everything looks good. I do have a quick questions though.... For the first build, I have a very small DLL that needs to be compiled, so that is the project I selected. Now, when I actually execute the build, all 4 GB of files in the source control get copied to the "Source" folder. Is there a way around this Thanks! Forch I don't why size of your source code is up to 4GB. Do you put all document on source code control If you do, I think you should put doc on wss(project portal). ...Show All

• Visual Studio problem connecting to MSACCESS database in crystal reports

  HI all, I have a small application which uses the Access database file.I'm using crystal reports to develop the reports.everything is working fine for the first time. 1). when i change the application location the crystalreport viewer is asking for the database file path.I'm storing the database file in the bin folder.Is there any way to dynamically get the address of the database file path,even if we change the application path. 2). if I make a setup of that application is that file will be created with that data while installing the application. or is there any other alternative option for that. looking forward for the solution -GRk hi thanks for your solution but while designing the crystal reports,in the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Warehouse Processing Error

  First up, I have deviated slightly from the stock TFS install because we prefer to use Kerberos rather than NTLM for authentication. To that end, all TFS services and app pools are running under a domain account and SPN's for the HTTP service (both NETBIOS and FQDN) have been registered under that account. C:\>setspn -L DOMAIN\TFSSERVICE Registered ServicePrincipalNames for CN=tfsservice,OU=Service,OU=Generic Accounts,OU=User Environment,DC=domain,DC=company,DC=com: HTTP/SERVER1 HTTP/server1.domain.company.com All was working well, until recently when the warehouse process packed up.

• SQL Server Trunc(date)

  Hi.... I am new to SQL Server. I primarily use Oracle which allows me to trunc(date) to removed the timestamp from a date. Can anyone tell me the equivalent in SQL Server Thanks! Christine Yes, you can convert the date to a non-containing string representation, like CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),GETDATE(),112) But you have to keep in mind that storing the string representation in a datetime column this will add the 00:00:00 because this is not separated in SQL Server.

• SQL Server ORDER BY efficiency

  Hi, I'm using a table with about 5 million records, i'm preforming a select query onthe table. I retrieve from that query about 2-4 million records when i'm not sorting the data the query return very fast. If I'm sorting the data (ORDER BY timestamp - when timestamp is a BIG_INT with an index) the query takes a long time to return about 30 seconds. I tryed to do the same thing with access DB and i get better results: the query with ORDER BY takes about 1 second. I dont think it's possible that access DB have better performance then SQL server, does any one have any idea what can be me problem thanks ishay. It will normally take much longer to sort 2-4 million rows than it will to simply s ...Show All

• SQL Server Analysis Services 2000 - Selecting a dimension's default member based on a member property

  Hi there, I'd like to write an MDX stamement that selects a certain month of my Time dimension based on a Month level member property, FLAG_LAST_MONTH. I tried SELECT {Date.CurrentMember.Properties("FLAG_LAST_MONTH")} on rows, {} on columns from MyCube but I get an error that points to the Properties token. What is wrong with my sintax Regards, Pedro Martins Hi Pedro, Based on the property name: FLAG_LAST_MONTH , I assume that it has a value like "1" only for one month.  In that case, you could use Filter() to select the desired month member: SELECT Filter([Date].[Month].Members, [Date].CurrentMember.Properties("FLAG_LAST_MONTH") = "1") on rows fro ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Logotype certs are mandatory??

  Hi, I was able to run the fabrikam example with the www.fabrikam.com SSL certificate. Now I want to use my SSL certificate (CN = sts.mysite.com) and I did the following: 1) Replace the cert thumbprint in app.config 2) run httpcfg -set ssl -i ... 3) set the cert ACL by modifying the existent vb script The certificate CN, CRL are OK and I can access via HTTPS a web site using this cert. On the other hand when trying to use my managed cards, the Identity Selector says that the SSL certificate is rejected since "the remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure". The SSL certificate is not a logotype cert. Are logotypes mandatory for CardSpace applications Thanks, kind regards, Clau ...Show All

  Is there a way to set the max zoom-put or zoom in MAP parameters If you stored the current zoom as a global varible outside the function then you could compare the new current zoom to work it out.

• Visual Basic Can't Get VB6 Serv Pak 6 to install in Vista RC1

  Has anyone gotten VB6 Service pack 6 to install in VISTA RC1 I tried and it errors out with some cryptic error about a missing file and quits. VB shows no sp installed and programs that were created with SP6 installd on XP will not run in the API on Vista RC1 with an error message "Component missing". Has Microsoft a fix for this We have lots and lots of custom written programs that we will have to maintain and support on VISTA (if installed) and there seems no way to do it because the service Pack 6 can't install. Chris, Thank you for the information. Setting VB6 to run as Admin did work for the error I was getting when trying to run the IDE. However, I am still unable to install SP6.
