• Visual Studio Team System Warehouse processing problems

  Hi, I'm running TFS over a Virtual PC, and the OLAP Services eats my CPU most of the time. I found a post (http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=3063) and a blog about this problem ( http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2005/04/19/409886.aspx ). But after I changed this setting to 3600 or to 360 and restart the TFSServerScheduler service, the OLAP Service crashed withot any additional information. I tried to process the warehouse manually (with de Run Web Service) and makes it crash again. I don't really know if this is the cause but, when I change back the setting to two minutes (120), OLAP didn't crash again (but it ge ...Show All

• Windows Forms I don't know this is an easy thing to answer but how do you save it as a dll?

  Yea, I really have no experience with any computer stuff, but this Terrarium game seems interesting, but I am not sure if I am even correct on this, but it seems as if you need to save your codes as a dll, but I do not know how to save it as a dll... could someone please help me out In the Solution Explorer window, right-click on your project and select Properties. There's a dropdown labeled output type, select class library there. If you're having this kind of problem, though, you might want to start with some simpler applications than Terrarium. ...Show All

• Windows Forms listView

  i have listView1 and i want to be able to select the index i want..just like in a listBox... example in a listBox u can do: listBox1.SelectedIndex = 10; and it select the index 10... listView does not have the SelectedIndex so how can i select the index that i want No. That returns the index of the focused item not the selected item. The focused item is not the same as selected item, although sometimes they may be the same. Have a look in the Hep for the difference between the FocusedItem and SelectedItems properties. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Please---Urgent---Crystal Report Grouping

  Hi, I am using Visual Studio 2003 and am trying to create a report. I have Oracle 8i. This is what I have: Group1     Group2        Group3 I have done all the visual linking, etc. When I just put the group names in the report and run it, the group tree in the report shows fine. However, when I select other data from the tables and put it on the report, the group tree showing on the left on the webpage, is screwed up. I mean, if there is no group2 under group1; group1 will not show. This happens only when I put additional fields from the table on the report. If I place no fields on the reports, the gr ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Security Roles in WWF

  Hi I am investigating WWF for a system design. The topic of user roles came up in todays discussion. A quick look at my SAMS WWF yellow beta book reveals no reference to User access roles appart from tracking in the SqlTrackingService. Has any work been done regarding assigning user roles to the workflow designer, or is this the hard work that is left to the developers Is there a timeframe on the roadmap for when user roles would be incorporated Peter Paul, I'm a little bit surpised by your answer. To my opinion workflow is about "work" flowing through organisations. Employees are i ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Problems deleting Queries from Currituck.xml

  I'm trying to produce a minimal MethodologyTemplate - see my other posts. I have successful removed most of the initial tasks, work item type 'Qos', work item type 'risk' and work item type 'Scenario'. I have also added the new work item type 'Story' and added a corresponding query 'All Stories'. All this seems to work fine. However there are the following issues 1. Although the Team | Add work item menu correctly shows Bug, Story, Task the 'Value' drop down menu in the query viewer (select a project query, right-click | View Query) still contains Risk, QoS and Scenario as well as Bug, Story, Task. 2. If I remove the 'Al ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Keyboard driver modes - How would one implement two diff behavior?

  Hi, My WM2005 device has a sliding alpha-numeric keyboard.   When that keyboard is open on the WM2005 Today screen, the keyboard enters a "numlock" mode.  This is where some overloaded keys that act as the phone’s dial-pad only output numbers, not characters ( so a user can initiate a call from the Today screen ).  When an app such as Pocket Word has the focus however, the keyboard functions “normally”, meaning all keys output characters and a user must press the FN key plus an alpha-numeric key to generate a number.     I have written a custom Today screen item that accepts user input in a textbox.   ...Show All

  Hi - Does anyone know what file would be considered most important when developing applications in asp.net. Thanks. I would say, if you are not pre-compiling, that aspx files are more important, only because with out them you would never be able to load a page so the web.config would not be accessed by the application any how. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions I do not want SP2. I do not want SP2.

  Hi. I run on Windows XP Professional SP1 and I really need Visual Basic .NET Express edition, as SharpDevelop2 is very buggy (atm). The thing is: I do not want SP2. Please do not flood me with comments such as "BUT OMFG SP2 PWNZZZ SP1 ! !" but tell me one good reason why to update into it. Not "security", not "more stable", but something real.
