• Visual Studio Team System TF26177 Team Foundation does not support renaming fields.

  Hello. We have just upgraded from Beta 3 Refresh to the Release Candidate. I'm trying to upgrade the Work Item Types to match the RC instead of the old Beta 3 Refresh. We have not done any customization on the work items so there shouldn't be a problem. I've just downloaded the new Process Template (MSF for Agile Software Development) and I'm running the command: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE>witimport.exe /f "C:\MSF for Agile Software Development\WorkItem Tracking\TypeDefinitions\QoS.xml" /t teamsystem /p Project1 Error: TF26177: The field Microsoft.VSTS.Common.RoughOrderOfMagnitude cannot be renamed ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Need some advice from the Pros

  Hi, I need some advice developing a DSP app on PocketPC (specifically iPaq 2215 , which is PPC2003 I think).  I have been developing Windows apps for a long time using VS with C++ as well as C#.  So I am quite familiar with Win32 and the .Net framework on Windows but when it comes to developing for the PPC I am a complete newbie. I have the following requirements for my PPC app: 1) Must be able to record and play back audio at the same time (full duplex). A typical example might be a spectrum analyzer that also needs to send out a test tone at the same time. 2) Need as small as possible latency from recording a buffer of aud ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to Build website from AssemblyInfo Task

  It is fine to use AssemblyInfo  task with Class Libraries project files in eg. .csproj.   < Import Project = " $(MSBuildExtensionsPath)\Microsoft\AssemblyInfoTask\Microsoft.VersionNumber.targets " /> But How to use the same with Websites where .csproj file does not exist. Thanks, Naren You can't use the AssemblyInfoTask with a web project as web projects don't have a project file. You can increment version numbers using the method described at http://weblogs.asp.net/bradleyb/archive/2005/12/02/432150.aspx . It requires using the Web Deployment Projects beta. Neil ...Show All

• SQL Server Identity column not returnd after AddNew / Update with ADO and SQL 2005

  Hi, I add new records to a table with ADO. The tables contain an auto-increment identity column. I want to retrieve the identity value after the insert operation. This works fine for SQL Server 2000. On SQL Server 2005 this only works if I use a table in the select statement. If I use a view in the select statement, ADO returns no value for the identity column, a trace with profiler shows that there is no Select @@IDENTITY statement. What is the reason for this behavior How can I change this behavior in SQL 2005 so that the behavior is the same as in SQL Server 2000 Best regards, George Hi, ...Show All

• SQL Server Merge replication 101

  Hi all, I am trying to set up replication for the following scenario.  Four satellite offices send changes daily up to a master database.  Then, at the end of the day, the master database, which incorporates all the updates from the offices, sends an updated copy of the db back to the 4 offices; at the beginning of the next day, each office now has an updated db to work with. Merge replication worked to a point; I was able to have 2 of the 4 offices merge data up to the master db.  So far, so good. But I cannot get the master db to replicate back down to the satellite offices.   I have seen mention of updatable ...Show All

• Visual Studio SourceSafe auto create sub-structures?

  This is a weird thing happened only on my workstation within the domain. (We only have 4 dev stations so far) Whenever I create a new project and added to the SourceSafe, it automatically creates the project in main root then another two sub-folders. For example, if I created a project called 'abc', then it'll look like below: $/   -abc     -abc     -abc_1 All the contents are put under 'abc_1'. If other developers have to checkout the project, they must go into the 'abc_1' and bind to that path. Does anyone experiencing the same problem The abc and abc_1 folders ...Show All
