• Visual Studio Team System Different groups/roles of testers and developers?

  I am doing some investigation about VSTS for my dept so I am a bit of a noob. I would like to know if you can have different roles/groups of developers and testers. For example. Lets say we have two different teams in my dept working on different projects that share some libraries.  Is it possible for them to have seperate bug lists for a shared project Also lets say that we had testers within the department, they need to be able to see all/create bug lists for a particular project. Now lets say that we also have a tester at a client.  Is it possible for them to only see bugs that are pertinant to them and the client i.e. ones tha ...Show All

• Windows Forms Two questions about ListView

  1. When I change the width of the columns of a ListView, the content of it flashes as I move the mouse. How can I cancel the ListView redraw the content while changing the column width I tried to add e->Cancel = true; in ColumnWidthChanging event, but it works not very fine. 2. I have an icon, and have added it in an ImageList. I want to set it as the ListView's StateImage. But strange that it displays as only in a very low color depth. I have set the ImageList's ColorDepth property to Depth32Bit, but it does not works. And if I set this icon as the icon of a form, it displays fine. How can I solve this problem The format of the icon is P ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView and posting changes to DataTable

  This problem appeared many times on this forum but in my case none of the solutions worked. The story is that changes do not appear in DataTable. dgv is bound to a dataset and DataMember has been assigned to a DataRelation (by its name). It views data fine, but when I type anything in dgv I can't see changes. I'm handling events TableNewRow and ColumnChanged. Those events are raised as they should when I change/add rows on dgv. When I don't press an arrow to go to the next datagridviewrow changes are not in the datatable. Before posting changes to database I'm trying to force saving data to datatable by tricks like dgv.Invalid ...Show All

• SQL Server Directly editing data in results pane with SQL 2005 Management Studio

  In SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager, one was able to edit and commit data on-the-fly directly from the results pane.  Action->Open Table->Query with the SQL Pane shown gives you an interface similar to Query Analyzer.  One could write a complex select statement with where clauses and joins, and the results pane would show the resulting data.  The data is editable and instantly updated.  We are now planning to migrate to SQL 2005 , and so will need the same capabilities that were availiable from its predecessor.  I believe there to be an option/configuration setting or panel in Management Studio that would expose thi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WPF + Add-ins = No security?

  I have been looking at the problem of add-ins for a UI intensive application with WPF.  From the reliability point of view, and general security advice, add-ins should be in a protected app domain.  From a programmer point of view the add-ins should have access to WPF rather than some application-specific proxy API.  But, I have not seen any solution that does both.  I would like the add-ins to be able to modify the UI of the application (add menus, add content to the document being edited, etc).  I could force the add-in to use a private API that can be marshaled between domains, and achieve the separation.  Bu ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Selection changed event raised on adding a row to a DataGridView - c# express?

  Hi, I have a form with a Datagridview control which gets filled programatically. It also has an associated 'selection changed' event for when the user gets to interact. In beta 1 all was OK but in beta 2 the selection changed event is raised everytime the program adds a row which is definitely not what I want. Anyone know if this behaviour is by design As a workaround I guess I could disable the selection changed events and then enable them again Which leads on to the Newbie question how do I disable the event which has been set up in the designer section using the properties pane Many thanks for reading Cheers ...Show All

• Visual Basic Delay using nesting in For Next Loop

  I am new to Visual Basic and am using the 2005 Express Edition. Can anyone please tell me why the following code does not produce 10 Beeps with a short delay between each one. For Int As Integer = 1 To 10       For Tim As Integer = 1 To 50            Beep()       Next Tim Next Int Be careful with threading sleep for any significant delays as the delay if in a looping construct can make the applications rather unresponsive as the process and UI are on the same thread and your just suspendin ...Show All

• SQL Server Converting a type into another one

  Hello, I've got two tables. An old one an a new one. Called "tbl_Filme" and "tbl_Filme2". The differents are that the data types are a little bit smaller as in the old one. So I've got a column wich should contains a datetime. Unfortunattley the datatype is just a normal date and not "smalldatetime" (the "tbl_Filme" was created with MS Access 2003). So I get an error message: 1> INSERT INTO tbl_Filme2 (Titel, Genre, Medium, Anzahl, Qualitat, Filmlange) 2> SELECT Titel, Genre, Medium, Anzahl, Qualitat, Filmlange 3> FROM tbl_Filme 4> go Meldung '298', Ebene '16', Status '1', Server ' ...Show All

• .NET Development specify odbc connection

  I cant beleive i havent found an answer to this, but here goes. I am using visual studio c++ 2005 express edition and have made an application with a specified data source using an access file. Can I instead setup the odbc connection in Windows and connect to the name of that connection instead All connection strings I have found have forced you to specify the mdb location in the project which is very inflexible and visual studio doesnt seem to let me do it any other way. Thanks in advance. Hi, If you are using ODBC .NET Managed Provider then you could use DSN name in your connection string. You do not have to specify driver name. ...Show All
