• Visual Basic Problem with Me.close

  Hi, I'm just moving from VB6 and have a big problem with the Me.close() function. Here is my example : The default start form is a splash screen ; name it Splash.vb which as the same function than the Microsoft Word one, for example. After a few seconds, I want to close it and load the main form, just name it Choices.vb . The problem is, when I put the Me.close() function in the Splash.vb form, it just closes the program. Of course, I have put the Choices.show just before Me.close ; so I see briefly the main form, the the program closes. To bypass this problem temporally, I changed the Me.close by Me.hide, but this is not a good solution of ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Getting Started sample not getting service.exe

  Hi, Well, I have been trying to get this first sample "Getting Started" going for a very very long time, and so far, I've been pulling my hair out just trying to figure out what is going on.

Neither under Getting Started/service/bin folder which produces service.dll file and service.pdb nor under wwwroot/servicemodelsamples/bin directory. I got the console based sample going but I really want this IIS based samples to work as well. Any help woul ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Visual Studio Team System - Requirements

  Morning, I've seen online documentation on VSTS and note how it is supposed to help the development lifecycle from "Requirements" phase to Deployment. This is taken from the Microsoft website. Problem is, there doesn't seem any elaboration on the requirements phase: How does VSTS help with requirements Is it practical for program designers (who often don't have much coding experience) Does it help map workflow This is kinda a hard sell to my company, but I'd like to give Microsoft the benefit of the doubt. You can use work item tracking in Team Foundation Server to track requirements. Alt ...Show All
