• Visual Studio Team System Error TF50632 Removing User

  Hi! While removing a user from the group of valid tfs users I get the Error: TF50632 : An error occurred removing the group member. There is no group member with the security identifier (SID) The problem is that the user is a regular domain user and should be fine. I can remove other users without problem. Thanks for any help Uli I guess so. (When does this sync takes place ) I got the problem now since 3 weeks with some reboots meanwhile. As long as I know there haven't been changes in the AD.

• SQL Server IE7 and SSRS Document Map

  The contents of document maps do not appear since I upgraded to IE7. They still appear for users on IE6. Reporting Services version is SQL2000. Have looked all over - this problem has been reported in a number of places but there seems to be no response / fix / work-around from MS. Can anyone help or at least comment It seems the bar is high enough that this one won't be fixed, at least if the reply from connect is accurate. Check out http://connect.microsoft.com /SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedbac k.aspx FeedbackID=241461 where I logged this problem and got a "Won't fix" answer. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Delete Cell Value in DataGridView

  Hi - I've programmatically added a column (type: decimal) to a DataGridView. I can edit cells without any issue. However, when I try to delete the contents of the cell, the DataGridView displays an error, and prevents me from leaving the cell until I've entered a numeric value. Can someone please tell me how to set the cell's value to DBNull.Value while allowing me to leave the current cell Thanks, James The best I can do right now is alter the DataGridView CellStyle properties. There is a NullValue property. If I set it to 0 then it gives me an alternative to deleting the value. I'd still like to be able to allow the user to delete the contents of the cell however. ...Show All

• Visual C# C# Book Recommendations

  This sticky here will be used for people to post their C# book recommendations. It will help us keep the forum a bit cleaner than making several topics about book recommendations and also helps everything to be in 1 "spot" and alot of people can see the book recommendations that you have given everyone else in this topic. So please, feel free to post your book recommendations here for developing in C#! :-) If possible, include any links where the person would be able to obtain the book from, and it's ISBN number which would be a big help to everyone! For C# beginners I highly recommend "Programming C#" by Jesse Liberty (O'Reilly). It works best if you have *some* knowledge of programming but is mostly an introduction ...Show All

• Visual C++ reply to gettempath() threads

  Hi , thank you for all your replies, they hve all been useful for my understanding, of what is involved. I am the stage of being able to create a dir (c:\\TempDir) and copying files in my VS2005 project folder. This works fine when debugging, and release to produce the .exe, But when i test exe on clean machine, error message states it cannot locate any of the resource files. I have tried adding these to the resource folder using solution explorer (right click and add resource), the file name appears in solution explorer but not in solutions explorer resouce folder. My question is:1. How do I save or process files in the winforms application, which I want the .exe to install/copy , when the .exe is launched. My question is:2. Here ...Show All

• Visual C++ Rebuild using shared precompiled headers doesn't work

  To combat a long build time, I consolidated common headers across 20+ projects into a single precompiled header, to be shared.  The pch file is generated from a separate project (pch.vcproj with stdafx.cpp/h), and it works with clean builds and incremental builds (from editing one of the files belonging to the 20+ projects), but I get compile errors when I choose Rebuild.  Before presuming a bug, I'd like to ask the forum for help.  There are several things that have to be done to get this to work, and unfortunately, I'll have to reveal them to legitimize asking for help.  For sake of generality, lets say one of these projects is A.vcproj.  For PCH\PCH.VCPROJ: (This is a completely default configuration for ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Administrator gets 403 - access denied

  Hi, When I log in as admin on my Team foundation Server, I can no longer connect to the server through Team Explorer. I get the following message: TF31001: Team foundation cannot retrieve the list of team projects..... ....The request failed with HTTP Status 403: Forbidden. I also get a 403 when I try access the web services through internet explorer. http://localhost:8080/services/v1.0/registration.asmx gives me a 403 as well. Now I know this is my own doing because I was previously able to acces these services using this login. It all went pear-shaped when I started fiddling permissions, trying to get a new user access to TFS. Eventually I got the user working, but Admin stopped working! I played with file system permissio ...Show All

• Smart Device Development [Vista] + Device Emulator + Mobile Device Center

  Hello, I have just migrated to Windows Vista. Everything is working (for now :-) ), I only have some problems with cradling VS 2005 Pocket PC Device Emulator. (to be more specific, i would like to share Internet between my computer and my Virtual Pocket PC.) I learned, that Active Sync was changed with Windows Mobile Device Center and that the WMDC should install via Windows Update (i run everything and checked in control panel, but WMDC was not there). Next information I received was the following one: Your Windows Mobile device must be connected to the computer for Windows Update to be able to detect the driver update and install the update. The problem is, that I don't have a physical device, I am o ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System .vsmdi file with large number of tests and testers

  Our QA team (~50 people) have been adding, organizing and running test cases in VSTS for weeks now. Since the number of test cases is pretty big (~5000+ manual) they always have problems with the .vsmdi file. Every time they create a new test case the .vsmdi is checked out automatically by VSTF because test solution is under source control. In most cases several test cases are created and added to lists by different testers at the same time, leading to a multiple shared checkout scenario on the .vsmdi file. The problem starts when they try to check-in the vsmdi file... In many cases they overwrite each other changes, loosing test cases and entries in the lists... We tried setting up all the clients to perform exclusive checkouts by d ...Show All

• Visual C# Pause and Resume

  Hi, How can I pause the application executing and resume it Thanks, Aya. Is data preprocessing being done on your database server, or are you processing data on the client in your own code If you're doing your own processing then it shouldn't be difficult to stop processing when user presses the cancel button and possibly "remember" when you stopped so you can resume later. But if it's your database doing the processing then I suppose it depends on your database and the kind of processing it's doing, and the means it allows you to pause/stop this processing.
