Towards the end of the Team Foundation Server install, I'm being prompted for login credentials.  The title of the box is "Log on" and the text above the User Name says "Connecting to Team Foundatio ...Show All

• asureus Custom Work Item Types and Sort Order

  I would like to create a custom work item field that has its own sort order.

• Zonram HOWTO: Programmatically list pending changes?

  We have a perennial problem where our developers sometimes forget to check in files, and they're left checked out for ages. Therefore, I want to write a utility to programmatically list all files that have been checked out for longer than a specified time. The documentation for the interface to Version Control isn't complete yet, and this is making it hard for me to do it... The tiny bit of code I have so far is this: TeamFoundationServe ...Show All
