• Visual Studio Team System How to config the TFS client to access TFS Source control on another port?

  The TFS in our company is behind a fireware and on this fireware we setup a port tunnel by which the port number 1345 on fireware is mapped to 8080 on TFS.

Go to VS, Tools/"Connect to Team Foundation Server..", then click on Servers button, and you can create a server mapping ...Show All

• Visual Basic Checkbox enables multiple fields

  I have several groups of combo boxes with a check box next to each group. I'd like to make it so that if the user check the checkbox, the combo boxes will become enabled (they default to enabled=false). That wouldn't be so difficult, but in an effort to create what I'd consider more efficient code, I'd like to find a way to use the same routine to enable all of my groups of combo boxes by sending the name of the checkbox that was turned on into ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Starting Visual C++ Express for the first time

  g'day: I just installed VC++ Express. I am not a C programmer, but I am somewaht familiar with VB.Net. The msdn site ...visualc/usingpsdk/default.aspx has instructions for adding paths and modifying the corewin_express.vsprops file, which I followed (except that my Platform SDK is in D:, not C: - I assume you need the $ sign heading the Paths).

  This is really simple, however if you're not 100% sure, please don't respond.

In the first, you use the "scvutil" application to auto-generate proxy classes. These classes wrap all necessary logic to call a service. There is no direct reference to the service project in your consuming application, and you can generate these ...Show All
