• Visual C++ VS .Net 2005, how to disable intellisense...

  Hi I am really frustrated with the performance of VS .Net 2005. This is because I always see at the bottom "updating intellisense..." and it uses 60% to 70% of CPU. How to disable this updating of intellisense... Please this is making Visual studio unusable. Thanks Chandra Hi, The same problem, but with one advantage, I can share the code. It is actually the open-source library ITK (www.itk.org). The funny thing, I used it until today with no problem. It started happening now, and no way to stop it. I will try the radical way of deleting the dll. Hope it helps. And hope you fix the bug. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Error when trying to generate report rsItemNotFound

  The item '/EA Current Version/Remaining Work' cannot be found. (rsItemNotFound) Get Online Help I checked the TFSwarehouse database and it Seems there are a few errors.

• SQL Server Pre-Generating snapshots not working

  Hi I have setup my web synchronisation with very few problems until now. Initially I set the snapshots to generated by the subscriber when they first synchronise, this worked perfectly every time until a bottleneck occured after I reinitialised all the subscribers. When more than one subscriber then initialises the snapshot agent, the snapshot jobs fail because there is already a job running for user distributor_admin. The agent then retries etc, etc.. until all retries have failed. Ultimately only one of the snapshots is successfully created only after all other jobs have failed and run out of retries, it is then left alone to carry out its job. Following this I made the decision to run with pre-generated snapshots instead so that I can s ...Show All

• SQL Server Setting up Client PC to access remote SQL Server

  Hi, I am a VB6 programmer and I'm really new to SQL Express, I have always used ACCESS because it was so easy to deploy. I've now written a VB6 program which uses SQL Express and I want to know how to deploy it. Basically my PC will host the SQL database as it has SQL Express loaded onto it. I now want to install my EXE onto other Client's PC and have them read/write to the database on my machine. Besides the EXE program, what software do I need to load onto the Client's PC so they can access my SQLExpress database... (eg: Net Framework, SQLExpress, etc). Also, if my machine is called ABC123, in my connectionstring do I just put in ABC123\sqlexpress as the datasource.. . Will this be enough for the other PCs to connect to mine ...Show All
