• Visual Studio Team System How to change the current authenticated user without disconnecting (due to bug in RC3)

  Is there a way from within VS2005 to change the user that is logged into the TFS server   I would think you could simply disconnect from the TFS server and reconnect.  But due to a bug in RC3 you can not disconnect. When I first added the server I was prompted for credentials and because I hadn't setup access in TFS I used my tfsSetup account.  Now when creating projects, etc I am always using this account.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks, Brian It is not possible to change the credentials of the logged in user from VS. The easiest thing would be to change the pas ...Show All

• Visual C# Adding user settings at runtime

  Hello I got an issue regarding the settings-file and "user.config". The setting file itself is just a class, including each item in the settings-design view as a property. This means that when you want to add an item in code (to the .settings file), it should be added in the source-file (the .cs file) as a property as well, which is practically impossible as you can't get to or change the source code when you're running the code. Because of this, I can't add extra properties to the settings file, and it won't be done with the code (see underneath). What the code does is adding the new property to the user.config file. So far so good ...Show All
