• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Visual Tree Woes...Any Experts Out There?

  Any experts out there I've been wrestling with this for quite a while...... GeLocalValueEnumerator returns nothing for elements in a VisualTree. FrameworkElementFactory only has a SetValue, no get or way of enumerating values. For DependencyObjects in a VisualTree, how does one get a list of Local Values or For FrameworkElementFactory, how does one get a list of DependencyProperties being set Thanks Ron ...Show All

• Windows Forms disable X on form but leave -

  how can disable the X button on the form's title bar but with leaving the minimuze button on it.. I just need the minimize button only on the bar (no maximum & no X) I usually do it by creating a non-rectangular form. Although doing this requires alot of coding because you have to write the code to allow the form to be moved. Doing it this way you can just create your own Minimize Box and Close Box.

• SQL Server Support for Execute DTS 2000 Package Task on Win 64 AMD?

  I have imported a series of SQL 2000 DTS packages to our 64bit AMD SQL 2005 server. I then created SSIS pkgs to run each SQL 2000 package using the Execute DTS 2000 package task. Then I deployed these packages to the Yukon server as well. I can run these packages when launching them via Integration Services from Management Studio on my workstation, but when I try to run them via a SQL Job or the DTExec command on the server, I get this error. Anyone know of a workaround OnError,xxxxxx,xxxxxxx,Execute DTS 2000 Package Task,{94769783-575C-4D1E-90F6-C2BDB3EA3CE2},{E05551C1-CDDE-40E3-87B4-C65D4E1B3A53},4/26/2006 3:01:37 PM,4/26/2006 3:01: ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Modest request regarding refreshes

  It would be nice to optionally have VS automatically update the status of source controlled files on some configurable interval. This would be especially useful for the icon indicators in Solution Explorer as they tend to get out of date (especially if a developer keeps a given project open for an extended period of time). When VS doesn't know the current status of a file it doesn't return the best messages/errors when you try to perform certain functions that aren't allowed given the current state of the file. It would also be wonderful if the History tab (if visible) would auto refresh to show the history of the currently selected file ...Show All
