• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with state persistence and timer services

  Hi, I've experimented with adding the SQL state, timer and tracking services to the Lab1 sample step 4 (the expense report approval workflow). The tracking service works fine, but it seems that the state and timer services get the engine stuck on the ListenForManagerApproval activity. If I disable the state and timer services the workflow unfolds as expected. I use the (really cool) Workflow Monitor sample to view the results, and the progress is evident every time: With the state and/or timer service enabled, the flow gets stuck on ListenForManagerApproval  and then after a while the workflow gets the status "aborted". Any ideas why ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions BUG:???? Two ComboBoxes on one form won't allow debug

  I have a simple windows form, and name it form1. I then add a combobox to it and start the debugging. Works fine. I then stop the debugger and add another combobox. I go to start the debuggin again and it won't work. It starts to work but then just quits the debugger. It acts like there is a "Me.Close()" in the form load().

I have spent WAY too much time trying to figure this out. Also, there is no code in the form. Just a simple example that won' ...Show All

  In VS .NET 2003, you could create a Windows Service using Visual Basic.  This was a great feature and I used it several times.  I went to try this in VS 2005 and it doesn't seem to be an option.

That is the case, but I would be very surprised if VS Profesional didn't contain the Windows Service Template. Well it did in VS 2003 anyway. ...Show All
