• Visual Studio Team System How does the OverlayIconIndex property of class BaseHierarchyNode work(TFS related)

  I'm assuming that the index would point to the same imagelist as that used for the display icon of the node but this seems not to be the case. Furthermore I'm guessing that provided I could get this function to work the icon at the index would be overlayed on the main Icon. Sort of like the short cut overlay icon. Am I right in my assumptions and can some one show me how to use the property. Thanks. Hi Morten, Can you please verify that this is still an issue If so, let me know and I'll find someone to provide help. Thanks, -Matt ...Show All

• SQL Server SMO

  hi everybody, I want to add the Microsoft.Server.smo.dll to my VS 2003 .net project. However, when I try   to do just that, I get an exception (A reference to Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll could not be added.  this is not a valid assembly or COM component etc). Any idea Ozbourn SMO requires the .NET 2.0 framework.  VS 2003 uses the version 1.1 .NET framework, so the project references in VS 2003 refer to the .NET 1.1 system* assemblies by default. It would be best to use a VS 2005 framework for .NET 2.0 projects since it understands .NET 2.0 very well.  ...Show All

• Windows Forms System.BadImageFormatException executing Custom Action in setup project

  We recently migrated from VS2003 to VS2005. We have an installer project that calls a custom action from our setup project. It used to work great in VS2003 but VS2005 is giving the following error when the MSI attempts to execute the custom action portion of the setup (occurs at the very end): Exception occurred while initializing the installation: System.BadImageFormatException: The format of the file "XXCustomAction.dll" is invalid. In the MSI, our custom action is listed under "Install" as "Primary output from XXCustomAction (Active)". The output shows "XXCustomAction.dll" as the only output. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Edit data in data grid

  I am using VS2005 standard and an IPAQ hx4700 with windows mobile 2003 second addition. I created a form Application with a data grid for my Pocket pc 2003 device. The grid recovers the data from SQL server but will not let me edit any field. If I make the same application for standard windows using the same data adapter and data set, the grid allows me to edit. What do I need to do so I can edit the data on the Mobile NETCF DataGrid is read only. You need editable DataGrid to edit data or you can use separate forms for that. There are several 3rd party grids for NETCF as well as ways to e ...Show All

• Visual Studio What happened SourceSafe web service access in Beta 2?

  A collegue of mine has just setup a SourceSafe 2005 database and configured it for internet web service access. I have Team Suite installed including SourceSafe 2005, but I am unable to find an option anywhere which would allow me to connect to it. I can connect over a local LAN or over the net via file sharing, but I can't find the web service protocol. I was informed this feature was in Beta 1. Anyone know what happened to it I thought Beta 2 was feature complete since the Go Live license is available.... Now i managed to get it to work.  I had enabled the internet access while the proj ...Show All

• Visual Basic Bound Form Dirty

  This should be fall off the log simple for a brand new development environment, but... In VS2005 b2 I have a bound windows form. How do I determine if the user has made changes to the data TIA It appears that the 'RowChanged' event only fires after the acceptchanges in invoked. This is well after any HasChanges flags have been set. And after any column data is assigned a 'proposed' version value. I myself am looking for an event that fires as soon as the DataRow .HasVersion(DataRowVersion.Proposed) becomes true. This occurs when any edit occurs, even before HasChanges becomes true. In order for H ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Why is 'Drop' outside of source control?

  I'm sure a familiar site for a lot of people working with Team Foundation at the moment is a build machine file system littered with a folder after folder of previous builds in the drop location and it seems a bit odd that there is no provision for having the output of the build also placed in source control rather than clogging up the build machine, is there any particular reason for this So, OK, I could extend my team builds 'AfterBuildDrop' target to checkout the previous drop from source control and checkin the new one overtop and giving it a sensible label. I then want to be able at a later date to get against that label and publish to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Suite 2005 RC - Can't run unit tests when web project is in solution

  If I create a solution with only a class library, unit tests run as expected. If I add a web project to the solution in addition to the class library, unit tests will not run and I get an error message like this: "Operation is invalid for the current state of the object." Removing the web project from the solution doesn't immediately resolve the problem but by cleaning, rebuilding, and opening the solution from scratch unit tests will work again with only the class library. Any suggestions We have not experienced this problem since moving to the final VS2005 Team Suite. It appears to be corrected in the shi ...Show All
