• Visual Studio Team System DoNotCastUnnecessarily: Release vs Debug

  When I compare the outputs of FxCop for my assemblies in Debug and Release build modes, the results are very different. The Debug report shows 233 more issues that are all related to "DoNotCastUnnecessarily" messages. Is the compiler optimizing things for a release build and that's why I don't see the messages in my Release report That's interesting (and worrying) that the optimizations are disabled i ...Show All

• SQL Server Join filter failure

  Hello there, I'm experiencing a really weird problem: I have a SqlCE subscriber connecting via IIS to a SQL Server 2005 database. The database publisher/distributor and the web server are on different machines (IIS being in a DMZ) and I want to avoid the use of Kerberos delegation to share priviledges on the snapshot folder. I configured the web synchronization to accept basic authentication and obviously the subscriber sends @internetlogin and ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How-to Remove or reattach TFS Version Control repository?

• Windows Forms Display Updated Windows Form

  This should be so easy, but I cannot find an example anywhere... In a long running job, I want to be able to display the ongoing record count on the screen, say for every 1000 records input.  But I cannot get the form to update and display - only the initial empty form remains on the screen.  I've tried Activate and Show but neither seems to "wake up" the form and update it.  I'm updating the controls that display the counts ...Show All
