• Visual Studio Team System Error TF50604 during Installation

  I've got a problem during the installation of the TFS 2005 RC. First I've set up a brand new PC with Windows 2003 Standard, Active Domain Controller (= ADC; and new DNS; the new domain is addc.mydomain, mydomain is an existing NT-domain, but I used "New Tree", so this shouldn't be the problem...) After that I created three new accounts on the ADC-computer (TFSSetup, TFSService, TFSReports), TFSSetup is a Domain Admin, the two others are Domain Users. On the other computer ready for the TFS (SingleServer) I did everything according to the chm-file (TFSInstall.chm), which includes installing hotfixes, sql server 2005 standard, and so ...Show All

• Visual C# carriage return

  I need to know how to put a carriage return in code in visual C# express in a text box. Bruce Hi there, Try something like: textBox1.Text = "The quick brown fox\r\njumped over the lazy dog" ; I found that you have to use both character constants (i.e. "\r" and "\n") to get the text to span multiple lines (using either of them alone doesn't work). Also, remember that your text box's MultiLine property must be set to True otherwise the character constants won't have any effect & the text won't span multiple lines. Hope that helps a bit, but sorry if it doesn't ...Show All

• Windows Forms Redraw control after window has hovered over it

  Hi! I'm writing a custom control and have a problem when the controls needs to redraw itself. Specifically, it's when you drag, for example, another window over my application's form containing the control. The redrawing of the control doesn't happen or the redrawing is incomplete. I already set the ControlStyles AllPaintingInWmPaint, DoubleBuffer, ResizeRedraw and UserPaint .

• SQL Server Indexes and tuning resources

  I'm something of an amateur when it comes to table indexing and tuning and was hoping everyone could recommend some quick-read resources that I can better my knowledge and understanding.

• SQL Server ERROR: A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list.

  Hi, I have set of 2 DTS packages, one of which calls the other by forming a command-line (dtexec) using a Execute Process task. From the parent package-> Execute Process Task-> dtsexec /F etc... /<pkg variable> = "servername" Each of the parent and the called package have a variable: "User::DWServerSQLInstance" which is mapped to the SQL server connection manager server name property using an expression.

• Visual Studio Team System Deleting old directories from source control (Beta 3)

  I am now playing with the TFS B3 source control and I am comfortable with it since it feels much like perforce, which I used a lot. Now, I deleted a team project through tfsdeleteproject.exe , but it left the root source control directory in the server. Its subdirectories are now marked with a dark gray folder with a red 'X' on it, and it can't be deleted in the source control explorer (the delete button is disabled). I tried using tf delete , but I can't seem to specify the workspace from the command line. Also tried setting the /workspace option but tf doesn't seem to recognize it.

• Visual C# Strange behavior C# compiler on internal members

  Hi, I encountered a strange phenomenon when reflecting over some public members of internal types. According to the C# Language Specifications v1.2, paragraph 3.5.2 on Accessibility domains it holds that "If the declared accessibility of M is public, the accessibility domain of M is the accessibility domain of T". Here 'M' is a member declared in type 'T'. According to this definition I'd expect declared public members to be compiled as internal, when their type is internal, but they are not, they show up as public! What is the reason for this behavior Hi, the visibility and accessiblity of a member of a cl ...Show All

• Visual Studio How do I create an application.extension.config file using MSBuild?

  Hi, I'm using MSBuild to build an executable program (exe) from VB.net source code. How do I get MSBuild to output an ApplicationName.exe.config file Thanks, Damian MSBuild does not generate .CONFIG files on its own.  The only thing it can do for you is copy an existing .CONFIG file from your project to the final bin directory.  So, if you have a file in your project called "APP.CONFIG", then MSBuild will copy this file to the bin directory as " AssemblyName .EXE.CONFIG". ...Show All
