jonathan seale No effect of "define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE 1"
For the moment I want to suppress all the deprecated insecure functions during static code analysis. I've added this line in two separate files that get included in all source files: #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE 1 to no effect -- the output still contains warning of these functions. A colleague has resorted to #pragma to supress these warnings. I'm curious as to why this doesn't work as documented in the help. Thanks. Sam ...Show All

fap99 Changing TFS Field Types
While I've read this article regarding field utilities http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms400725.aspx , is there any way to change the type of a field (witimport suggests no change once set) The 'String' type actually limits the length to something too short to meet our new needs and, while the 'HTML' type is sufficient, we would like to preserve the 2000+ odd work items that we have with values in this field already. Any info would be ...Show All
