• Visual Studio Tools for Office Context-sensitive Actions pane: Odd update behavior

  I have an Excel workbook that contains two named Ranges: OrderDate and ShipDate. When I select either of these cells, I want the Actions pane to display a user control that contains a label and a DateTimePicker control. I want the user control to show up in the Actions pane only when one of these cells is selected, so I have code on the ranges' Selected and Deselected event handlers to add or remove the control (see code below--SetDate is the name of the user control). The solution works fine when I put my cursor on OrderDate and then move to ShipDate. It also works fine when I move from any other cell to either OrderDate or ShipDate. The so ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Backup you data with Team Foundation Server Beta 3

  Since the documentation looks to be outdated: What are the steps to take to backup all the data within TFS3. It should be a backup of all tables (including SharePoint Services and Reporting Serves data) from SQL Server and a backup of Windows SharePoint Services. Is that it Are the attachements now stored within the database Thanks, Neno That's the version control file cache, as Bill mentioned.  The version control caching proxy is both part of the server (TFS) and a standalone app that can be installed on a server at a remote location.  Since it is inherently part of every TFS app tier, all installations end up with this dir ...Show All

• Visual C++ LockFile

  How can I check if the file is already open through C++ programming. I tried to use LockFile() and _lockfile() functions but they both require number of bytes to be specified. I want to lock the whole file before writing something to it or abort the operation if another instance of that file already open. Any hints and comments will be appreciated. There is no direct way to see if a file is already opened. You have to open a file with the atributes and sharing modes you want. Than you have success or not. So if you want to see if anybody has the file open. Try to open it and deny reads and writes. ...Show All

• SQL Server How to bind SQL Express to a particular CPU?

  Since SQL Express only runs on one CPU, is there a way to bind SQL Express to a particular CPU, or SQL Express only runs on CPU0 And in case of CPU hyperthreading, I assume that the CPU SQL Express running on will be a logical CPU, not a physical CPU, am I right Thanks for the info. I can use the dynamic binding, although it would be nice that I can specify the cpu mask during instance installation stage. This brings up another question, how the affinity mask works on different instances (different services / processes) If I specify Instance #1 on CPU0, then instance #2 on CPU1, how does it wo ...Show All

• Visual C# What's wrong with my word.application in multithreads?

  I wrote an own-defined threadpool and used waitcallback to delegate a function in each thread in pool. But there are some problems with the program: when I run the program, it gave no response and  I can see the "winword.exe" process in the task manager, no exception occurred. The problem seemed to be at running this statement: Word.Application msWord = new Word.ApplicationClass(); Although I knew the word.application is automation and STA-based and had set the threads as STA, the problem was still on. What can I do now PLS help me. Any suggestion available would be great. ...Show All

• Visual C++ R6034 from vanilla setup ?

  I have delayed using Visual Studio 2005 until now because I didn't want to switch in the middle of a big project. I have a completely vanilla setup using every default option. My executable has two user-written DLLS. My first attempt at running in the debug mode raised this familiar error. I checked the properties and it is creating a manifest file and is embedding a manifest file (apparently the defaults). Why do I get a message about attempting to load the C Runtime library without a manifest I did try several solutions from reading different approaches such as copying the Microsoft.VC80.DebugCRT folder to the same folder that contains th ...Show All
