• stak How can I add team members to the "assigned to" list?

  Hi, I've finish the istallation of TFS and finally manage to connect both my VSTS and MS project (though only by right clicking on the work item folder in VSTS in choosing "add work items with ms project". Any other way I get TF80071 error...). Now I have the project with new tasks and I try to publish. I get an error that the users the tasks are assigend to are not valid.

• AhmedOsama Bug? TFSVC API - VersionControlLabel constructor

  I was just working with the Version Contrtol API's VersionControlLabel object and I found something interesting that I thought the MSFT folks might want to look into. After instantiating a new VersionControlLabel object, I noticed that the instance's VersionControlServer property was Null. I know that the VersionControlServer object that I passed into the contructor was valid because I also used it to pass the AuthenticatedUser. Here is th ...Show All

• BG22 How does the test pick up values from List Boxes

Multiple selections end up being posted as comm ...Show All

• Chris.Ziel Raise Version-Number of Assemblies in TeamBuild

• Grigori Somin MSFT Generic Test does not seem to deploy the exe

  I seem to be missing something simple here, I guess. The help states that the exe being run by the generic test will be copied to the deployment directory. This is not happening. Even if I add it to the "additional files" list, in effect forcing it to be copied, it is not run from this directory. This matters a great deal to me because I am trying to use a Generic Test to run my GUI to produce Code Coverage results. So I need the test ...Show All

• Wade Heisen Get Latest and Check-out Behavior

  Is "Check Out for Edit" behavior different depending upon multiple users vis-a-vis multiple workspaces For example, I modify a file in Workspace_1, check it in, and then switch to Workspace_2 (both workspaces are in my local machine and have the same file mapped).

• AJ Software error "attempting to perform the undo operation" when using relative paths

  We are studying how to put our current code into Team Foundation Server source control, but face a problem with each C++ project. The problem is related to the fact that a solution contains source files that are 'higher' in the directory tree than the project file. So, say thay the project file is this: C:\WS\Projects\CPPProjectForTFSBug\CPPProjectForTFSBug\CPPProjectForTFSBug.vcproj The problem occurs if it contains this file: . ...Show All

• WikiServer Guy Benefits of Team System Developer vs. VS2005 Pro

  I am looking for a developer's opinion comparing Team System Developer vs. VS 2005 Professional. However, I am only interested in the development product and tools included. I am not really interested in the Team advantages. So, putting aside the "team" aspect of Developer Team Edition (Source control, Project management, etc.), does anyone believe the tools included in the Developer Team Edition (Profiling, Code Analysis, Unit Test ...Show All

• Dmitriy Default instance not SQL Server 2005

  We're still using SqlServer 2000 in most of our products and a switch to 2005 is currently not possible. I want to ask if there is way we can install TFS without everyone changing their configuration files to use a named instance of SQL Server 2000. If I understand you question correctly then I think the answer is "yes". The SQL Server repository part of TFS is only accessed by elements installed in ...Show All
