• Visual Studio Web Plug-in for SourceSafe 2005

  I am trying to connect to my web based SourceSafe database using the 2005 plug-in from Visual Studio 2005 Team system on a client. Each time I try to access the machine I get an 0xC00CE556 error with no explanation. Does anyone know what this means and more importantly how to fix it Thanks for suggestions, but they are not helpful. I had try it, but with no success. In the web folder for SourceSafe web service are two files with XML text - web.config and VssService.asmx (there's a directive only). Both the files looks good, but the error resides... Some other ideas Thank you Vlado ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Saving stream settings

  I'm trying to save streams settings (e.g. audio/subtitle track numbers) on titleEnd system event and what I've noticed that Tosh player trigger this event after loading the new title, so I couldn't use currentTitle to collect settings because it already point to the new one. Can anybody give an idea where is the best place to save these Thanks Peter! it's clear now.

• SQL Server BUG: UPDATE updates not listed fields

  Hi Everybody, I am in this forum for a first time. Today, I think, I found a bug in SQL Server 2000. I tried it on SQL Server 2005 and it is alive yet. Before I explain exact the problem I have a stupid question. Is there any type of award if I have found a real bug. It is about a situation when I try to update some fields in a table and I get updated some other wrong fields. There aren't any triggers ot something else. Create a new table, insert one row, update some fields but other ones get changed too. Is there something known about this Thanks, Hristo.

• Visual Studio Team System Test not found in TFS build

  Hi The test run fails with warning in buildlog.txt: "Test mytest cannot be found". The .vsmdi file loaded fine. Storage attribute in the .vsmdi file points to right folder where mytest placed. I've checked all properties - testlist, paths - everything looks fine, but the paths in "Search path(s) for tests" are still wrong, they point to solution folder. How can I add or change the "Search path(s) for tests" paths Zeev I think you're misunderstanding the SearchPathRoot property - this specifies the path to search for the binaries containing the unit tests, not the vsmdi file. Notice the Loading d:\Builds\DefenseAnalyzer3\...\DefenseAnalyzer.vsmdi line just above ...Show All

• SQL Server Error: Subreport could not be shown.

  I work for a Microsoft Gold Partner and I am having a problem with subreports in SSRS 2005 SP1. Essentially, I have a report that contains subreports. The main report has a table that passes a parameter to a subreport in each row. The report renders properly when I preview it in Visual Studio, but once deployed to the server it only renders the first subreport for the first row, and every subreport thereafter displays the error, "Error: Subreport could not be shown." I tested each subreport individually on the SSRS sever and each executes and displays fine. I turned on traces in the web.config file and found some additional information: Hi, this is definetely a bug. Please post your information about this at ht ...Show All

• .NET Development Expose library as web service correct pattern

  I want to expose the whole functionality of a library through a web service. In order to do that of course I've created web methods for all public methods in this library. Because only public data and no logic or private fields is transferred through web services, I need to know what is the correct pattern for invoking the methods of the proper objects. By now I've found two possible patterns: 1) Objects are created on the server and then passed to the client ( Of course now they have only data and no logic ) and when invoking a webmethod pass this object as a parameter so that the server now has object with the correct data and methods and just invoke the method from this object. The proble ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS package & variables

  I have a SSIS package that was migrated from DTS 2000. It had a variable that I passed to the DTS package when executing. Now when I try executing the SSIS package with the variable, I get the following error: The package path referenced an object that cannot be found: "\package.variables[user::SnapShotDate].value". This occurs when an attempt is made to resolve a package path to an object that cannot be found. From everything that I can find, I am passing the variable correctly. If I look at the package within BIDS, my variable is listed under the variable window & it is scoped for the package. Any ideas on what I might be missing here This is my first SSIS package that contains a variable. Let me know if you need mor ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions URGENT - The Parameter Is Incorrect message when adding a new table

  I have recently installed VB Express 2005 with SQL Server option on Windows 2000 Professional with Service Pack 4. The install had no problems. I can create basic forms with no access to a DB.

• SQL Server HELP: REPORTING SERVICES Pie Chart Point Label Formatting

I can get the first two but am having a problem with trying to add the % to the label. This is the only show-stopper for my report. thanks You can calculate the percentage by using an expression for the data point label.
