• Visual Studio Express Editions Can MS cut down the size of install img/ISO?

  I don't know why you guys make such big packages. I don't think everyone need the msdn/sqlserver and other component Can you provide some small packages for downloading the iso contains everything, as is logical for a CD image. If you use the online installer you can mix and match to your heart's desire. Or you can order a CD shipped to you if your connection speed is the problem. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Moving TFS to a new physical server - can be done?

  Hi folks, currently we have been trialling/using TFS B3R2 and besides the odd quirk here or there love it and will be keen to purchase a license when released, etc. That said, we would like to keep the existing _DATA_ we have on the current crap hardware and migrate it to a new machine with the released TFS product.

• Visual Studio Team System Sorting by Rank sorts incorrectly

  Rank is an integer field - but when you sort it and you have say 13 items ranked from 1 to 13. When you try and sort it in the UI by Rank it will rank them 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3,4,5... Since the UI only allows integers in this field - sorting it like a string isn't right - I am using the RC version. Hello Bryan, You are right- the Rank field is defined as a String field but the form accepts Integer values. ...Show All
