• .NET Development XMLTextWriter Encode Attribute

  When I use the xmltextwriter in .net with the encode (utf-8) parameter in the constructor, the result is an xml file with encode attribute in small letters (utf-8 in place of UTF-8). Some validations systems expect "UFT-8" in upper case. How can I force the encoding attribute in upper case. Hello Marc, I am afraid there is no easy way to enforce writing the encoding name in upper case. (Of course, you may implement trivial post-processing.) The XML specification says the 'encoding' pseudo-attribute is case-insensitive, so using lower case is considered valid. The XmlTextWriter class calls System.Text. Encoding .GetEncoding( "UTF-8" ).WebName , which always returns the lower-cased nam ...Show All

• Visual Basic ComboBox: VB Code to select first one.

  Hi I have the following VB code, when someone selects the worksheet name from the combo box in the summary page it takes them to the worksheet. However, the problem is that if they select, for example, worksheet "B" it takes them to the worksheet fine but when they are back in the summary worksheet the "B" is still selected in the combo box and you can not select "B" anymore. You have to select other worksheet name before you can select "B" again. Is there any way to instruct the combo box to always select the first item in the list Thanks in advance.

• Visual Studio Team System Team Foundation Server Workgroup vs Team Foundation Server MSDN

  I installed the workgroup addition with 5 licenses. I was able to successfully setup 5 windows users within Team System to connect toTFS. My company purchased the full licensed MSDN TFS editions (Architect, Developer, Tester). We need more than 5 developers to access TFS. My question is: do I need to uninstall the workgroup edition and install the full version Or can I upgrade The licensing/installation for this product I find is a bit confusing... Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks, - gshaf I believe you just run the TFS setup from Add/Remove programs and you can enter a new license key and you're off to the races. Same as upgrading from Trial to licensed. Rob Caron touches o ...Show All

• .NET Development convert XML doc to Word

  The C# VS build option that creates an XML file from keywords embedded in the source code seems like it ought to be a reasonable way to create readable documentation for code. I did discover that if I open the .xml file with Word and view it under "reading layout" it is sort of readable. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to format the code comments with XML keywords so that it produces a somewhat readable XML file when opened with Word TIA Bill You may compose XSLT style sheet to format XML to any form you like including to WordML. I never have seen XSLT that does this already. If you find one let us know. ...Show All

• SQL Server Is there a way to know if execution of activated stored proc is already finished?

  Hi everyone! Good day! I'm not really sure if my question should fall on Service Broker or T-SQL, but I hope someone helps me with this... After activating the stored procedure assigned to the queue, is there any way for me to find out if the stored procedure is already finished executing I have successfully sent messages to my queue but I have no way to know if all the processing is already done. Thanks so much! The Profiler will trace the Broker/Broker:Activation event when the procedure is started and when it ends.
