• Visual Studio Team System Integration with RequisitePro

  Hi, I've seen demo's of integration between Borland CaliberRM and Visual Studio Team System. However, the company I work for, uses RequisitePro for Business Requirements and I was wondering if there's a way (hopefully a tool) to import data from RequisitePro into Team Foundation Server Thanks, Reza Shams There is nothing built into v1 for this. You could write something using the client API. See the VS March SDK CTP ( http://vsipdev.com ) for more details. Buck ...Show All

• Visual Basic 1 context menu for several controls

  I am tring to use the same context menu for several textboxes on my form.(cut, paste, undo etc) How can I tell which textbox was active when the menu was clicked Do I have to use a seperate menu for each textbox This is a bit of an old-school method, I know, and I'll probably get bagged out for it, but you could create a public Control Object and populate it with a reference to the specific text box in it's MouseDown event. Here's an example of what I mean: Public MyCont As Control Private Sub TextBox1_MouseDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.Mou ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Express registration: going crazy...

• Visual C++ Accessing a string array

  Hello, This is my first post here, so I wasn't entirely sure if this is the best place to put it. I'm starting to learn the .NET framework, and have created an array that I need to access in two different forms, this array command I'm using is: array<String^>^ strarray = gcnew array<String^> (100); . Which I declare in my int main() function - I can read and write to the array in the main function, but I don't know how to access it in my other forms. (I've tried the obvious ways: extern etc, but they don't seem to work, and have tried placing the array declaration in many other places, but this in the only way it will com ...Show All

• Visual Studio If I add the comp's source to the solution, then it works I can debug into, but

• SQL Server passing variables to a package before execution

  I would like to pass variables to the package before it is executed (e.g. I am calling the bcp utility and I need to pass a password to the command line), so that at runtime a variable is set and then used. Does anyone has some hints for good approaches Every idea is welcome. FYI: I do not use the bulk insert task as I need an errorlog file and the command is buggy with the errorfile option, therefore I chose the bcp approach. My connections are dynamic as far as servername and userid is concerned, but I did not find a solution for the password issue. Configurations, lookup them up in Books Online. ...Show All
