• Visual Studio Team System TF60032: The VSS Converter requires Visual Sourcesafe 2005... HELP!!!

  First off: Major gripe here; Why would I need to purchase VSS2005 if we just shelled out $8000 for TFS and CAL's What do I need to do to get this to work Can anyone tell me how I do the VSS2005 setup I have tried searching through the forums here with no end. Furthermore: I don't have the MSDN access level to download VSS2005 as it would appear others have resorted to. I tried the VS2005Team 180day trial, but cannot find VSS2005 there either. I have re-installed TFS. I have also tried the beta service pack to no avail. I have spent (wasted) countless hours hunting for the elusive VSS2005 install. Oh, TFS itself works fine... just need sourcecode.. Please, Please help, -David The reason for the dependency is that the ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista VISTA - installing in program files?

  Hello, We have an application which we install an Access 2000 database with. We have always installed this under c:\program files\[applicationName]. I have read up on UAC and virtualization in the new Vista and I have been told that I should not install our database in c:\program files\[applicationName] anymore. This application may be ran by multiple users on the same system and the database may need to be shared with other computer systems on the network. So my quesiton is where should I put the database now Should I do something crazy like just install it at c:\OurDatabase I can't write it to a user specific folder because 3 users on the same system may run it. So should we install our database on VISTA thanks ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Is this right for me?

  I think this is a good question that could benefit many new developers from a waste of $99. Hi everyone. I've worked with a small program called Gamemaker (how original) that some people may have heard of for the past 2 years. I've made small 2D games and recently took my first leap into 3D games, and I have been using the in game coding system for about a year. This coding system is similar to a very simplified version of a normal developing codeing system. I've never really used real code before, but I really love making games, and with my new Xbox 360, I think this would be a great tool I'd really enjoy. What I'd really like to know, is this something I'd be able to grasp I'd really appreciate any feedback! Thanks everyone! ...Show All

• SQL Server SP2 Slows Down Time Intelligence

  Can somebody else verify that performance decreases in SP2 where time intelligence is concerned. Below is my simple repro on AdventureWorks. I already have an open question in a prior thread to ask why [Year to Date] is so much slower than [Current Date] where fiscal semester [2004][1] is concerned. [Current Date] runs in 2 seconds after clearing the cube cache. My question for this thread is why did my [Year to Date] query go from 1 minute in SP1 to 2 minutes in SP2 Does anyone know how to get the 2 second execution that I would expect from a [Year to Date] query Step 3 below runs in 1 or 2 minutes depending on if you have SP1 or SP2 Step 4 runs in 2 seconds 1.

• Visual Studio Team System Error when installing SP1(beta)

  Error: Product: Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team Foundation Server - ENU -- The application pool identity required by Team Foundation Server (TFSWSS) for the content virtual server is not using the Team Foundation Server service account. To proceed, you must exit setup, set the application pool identity (TFSWSS) to use the Team Foundation Server service account, and then run setup again. I have checked and the TFSWSS app pool is running as "SE\TFSService" ( my service account) Any ideas on how to proceed Can I check what account that the setup think TFSWSS should run as /Andreas Ohlund Tried all that but it didn't help.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Trying to create an object and use it.

  I want to create a new vending machine object and use it. I think this class does create the object, but I have this funny feeling it's not really doing anything with it. For example, when I use Insert(nmbrQurtrs, nmbrDimes, nmbrNickels); I didn't have to use Caffeine.Insert() which make me think I have an unused object or something. I am not sure about whether I have done this in a way that actually uses the object. Should I make a subclass inside this class and put main there Well, I am confused at the moment, any info on what you see would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance. class VendingMachine { private double moneyInsrtd = 0.0; //exact change only private int cupsCoffeeAvail = 0; private doub ...Show All

• .NET Development TransactionScope commits even tho exception was thrown

  I have the following very simple block of code: using ( TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope ()) { try { newSongId = this .CreateNewSong(newSong); // First create the new song.... returnValue = this .AddSongToCd(cdId, newSongId, 0); // then add new song to cd.... } catch ( Exception ex) { errMsg = ex.Message; } scope.Complete(); } Each of the 2 lines within "try" stmt (CreateNewSong and AddSongToCd) call a SQL stored procedure, and I know that these 2 calls work.

• Visual Basic Appointment Reminder Help

  First off, if this is in the wrong forum move it please. Ok, so... I am making a program that would help remind someone of an appointment. It has four basic objects - a DateTimePicker, a Button, a TextBox, and a CheckBox. I have set the DateTimePicker to a custom format of dddd, MMMM dd, yyyy -- hh:mm:ss tt. When the user sets the date and time and clicks the appropiately named "Add" button, it will add it to a list of appointments - the textboxes. Of course these probably aren't the best way to list them is it, but more on that later... When the system time reaches what is in the textbox it is supposed to alert them and give them maybe a couple of choices of dismissing it or moving it. The checkbox I haven't decided 100% on, ...Show All
