• Windows Forms TreeView - Expandable Nodes

  I'm currently writing my own remote source control application in C# (SQL 2000 backend). As with SourceSafe, I present the project structure in a tree view. So far so good.

• Smart Device Development UpdateData before app starts

  Hello all, I am writing a native, dialog based, c++ app (MFC) for a Windows Mobile 2003 device (PPC) using vs2005. I have the following things: - a variable - that variable DDX'd to an edit control - the variable set to some initial value - an "OnEnChange" handler for my edit control that calls UpdateData(TRUE) - another method that changes the variable and calls UpdateData(FALSE) to update the control This seems to work fine...the user changes the edit control and the variable is updated, and vice versa. However, the problem is at application startup. I get an error "An unsupported operation was attempted". The dial ...Show All

• SQL Server Error using Execute Package Task

  I'm trying to run a package from another package using Execute package task - I'm getting the error: Error: Error 0xC0012050 while preparing to load the package. Package failed validation from the ExecutePackage task. The package cannot run. . I have Delay validation on the child package. Any other suggestions Thanks I am perhaps wrong about this but I don't think setting DelayValidation=TRUE on the package prevents tasks from getting validated. If you have tasks that you don't want to validate when the package starts then set DelayValidation=TRUE on the TaskHost. -Jamie ...Show All

• SQL Server Copy databases

The copy databases wizard says the job is successful and I can see that the job has been done on the remote server. But the copied databases are not there. What do I do Make sure you connected (during the copy) to the right (the same as you have inspected later)instance of SQL Server.

• Visual Basic try catch with a loop

  I have a Try...Catch in my code and inside that I have a for loop. Now, if one of the loops error out then the whole for loop is forfeited and the code continues. I want to know if there is a way to continue the for loop after an error. What I am doing is setting decimal values with a loop. The values differ every time. Some of them may be too small for the decimal type. The two values that error out are 149 597 870.691 / 10e+24 149 597 870.691 / 10e+21 so far those cause errors. When an Error is caused then the value changes to NaN instead. But with my loop, it causes an arithmetic overflow and doesn't change anything. Well, I have confused ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Binding data - how to find and replace inside each web test

  Hi Given that I am still trying to reduce as much as I can my code generation, I need to make this process quicker: - I record a WebTest (composed let's say by 10 requests) - I bind a specific parameter (i.e. documentID) to one of my table rows - For doing that, I have to open manually each of the HTTP requests, finding where documentID is present and substitute the recorded value with the bound value. Is there a way to "find & replace" that in automatic Something like: Find "81" (recorded value of DocumentID), and replace with the string: "MultiUserData1.LoginTest3.DocumentID" ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System What is the purpose of the standard categories of checkin notes?

  I can understand why a developer might want to add some notes to describe a changeset, but I can't see the purpose of the standard categories of: Code Reviewer Security Reviewer Performance Reviewer If you make it mandatory to provide these three types of notes before check-in are you envisaging that three different people will have to call by your desk and type-in some comments before you can submit your changeset Hopefully not! It would make more sense for you to simply type the name of the person who was responsible for performing these reviews in respect of the changes you are making. Is this the intent of this feature What are people ...Show All
