• Visual Basic Excel automation with VB.NET

• SQL Server SQL Express MDF Shrink

  Hello, I have just installed the express studio management tools and shrunk a databse down from 3.1gb to 1.25gb. The information in the tools says that the freespace available now is 110.98mb. What does this freesapce relate to Hopefully not my database limit Michael Growing a file is expensive, so when you shrink a database, SQL Server doesn't remove all the unused space. It leaves a small amount (specified by the user) for new data. The 110 MB is the amount of free space left in the file before it has to grow again.

• Visual Studio Team System Using fxCop with source control

  I'm having difficulty using fxCop with source control (standalone, vss-like source control, not integrated with any IDE).  The problem stems from the fact that contained in the .fxcop files are absolute paths to the dlls associated with the fxCop project.  Since different developers have these dlls in different absolute locations, fxCop fails to find the dlls it's looking for. If the fxCop file specified the locations of the dlls using relative paths starting from the location of the .fxCop file, everything would work fine since all developers have the same relative locations of dlls from the .fxCop file. Are there plans to use r ...Show All

• Visual C# build / debug functionality missing?

  hi. in vs2003, it was possible to have a build configuration where _no_ project was selected. that way, one could simply build a single project inside the solution using the build command. when the solution was run, however, the ide would still fetch all current versions of all assemblies and copy them to the main projects runtime directory before launching the debugger. thus, it was possible to do a local build of an assembly and still test that assembly using the other code. vs2005 no longer fetches all current version of all assemblies: in order to do a local change and test that change, its necessary to do a complete build. in my case, t ...Show All

• SQL Server What are the current best practices for standardizing report layout and appearance?

  I am accustomed to the Actuate enterprise reporting system in which it is very easy to define reusable page formats that standardize things like page layout, margins, logo placement, page header and footer formatting, etc. You just drag and drop a page layout from your component library to inherit from it, and ensure that all your reports have the same consistent format. What if any features and tools are there to accomplish this in 2005 Reporting Services I see the style template feature of the new report wizard, but that only seems to apply to font settings for report elements, and these settings are not inherited, only copied into the ne ...Show All
