• JulioCampos VSS 2005 Price

  How much will VSS 2005 cost independently We can not afford to buy a MSDN license or anything like that and want the new features. We already have VSS 6.0 which we had to purchase independently also from VS.NET 2003. Alfredo, our PM has contacted the MSDN guys, and hopefully we'll see an updated page with prices on Microsoft's site. Meanwhile, here are some prices for VSS2005 found at Amazon.com (not sure if t ...Show All

• ajay_ndelhi Weird Stepping Behavior

  Hey Folks, I have a problem with some weird stepping behavior in VS 2003 and C#.

This is also true of routines calling other functions or subroutines. The debugger shows the program step out of ...Show All

• lewie DependencyProperty.AddOwner - what's the point?

  Say I have two classes derived from UserControl: MyFirstControl and MySecondControl. Thus, there is no inheritance relationship (in a C# / CLR sense) between the two classes. Further, say I want to have a DependencyProperty named (e.g.) IsCircular in both classes, where this property is to serve a similar role in each class. I have two choices here: I can either DependencyProperty.Register the property in each class, or I can DependencyPro ...Show All

• Gautam25470 Local mode and parameters - the overview

  I am just trying to understand the issues with regard to writing reports in local mode.

Just need to understand how it's designed to be used. To me there is filtering on the front end and filtering on the back end. On the front end, meaning, passing values ...Show All

• Larry30813217 I want to add additional documentation to VS help system.

  I have VS 2005 installed and it comes with a set of documentation which you can filter via drop down box, which is great. But I am doing some sharepoint development and I really don’t want to switch between the two systems or more if I have other SDK docs I need to look at, can I add the sharepoint SDK or any .chm file to the VS help system which should be automaticly searched via dynamic help also. I think I am asking for the impossible. ...Show All

• MonicaR Conditional operator in expression trees

  Are there plans to support the conditional operator (the " " operator) in expression trees at some point Right now I have to wrap each conditional sub-expression in a method call to get it to "fit", otherwise the compiler complains that "The expression contains operations that cannot be translated to a System.Expressions.Expression type".

  I've got the VSS internet service working perfectly on my laptop on port 80, and I've even got my second computer accessing the database over the internet on the laptop.
