• .NET Development Visual WebDev 2005 - Doesn't syntax highlight between <% %> tags

  Is this a normal thing for the new .Net versions I use those tags a lot when placing one liners into an ASP page  ie <%=rs("data")%> Is there a way to enable syntax highlighting in these regions When I change the <% tags to <script ...> tags it works fine. Hop over to the http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback  and see if maybe there is already a bug or suggestion reported on this matter. If not you can go ahead and make a suggestion or report it as a bug. To me I would imagine that maybe Microsoft wants developers to only use <% %> for extremely small code snippets or D ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Timeouts and 302 object moved

  Using VS2005 Team Suite, I recorded the WebTest succesfully but when I ran it, get some success and some failure. Some test fails for timeout and some shows " 302 object moved ". I tried TimeOut property to extend upto 300s . But still wouldn't help. Any tips or tricks A 302 Http status code indicates that the URL is a redirect. When you navigate to a URL that is a redirect, IE automatically receives the 302 and then retrieves the target of the redirect; displaying the final page in the redirect chain in the browser. The Web test recorder records the URL that you originally navigate to ( ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) VisualBrush + BitmapEffect + Animation = Bug?

  There's an weird issue I've found with using VisualBrush and BitmapEffect at once. As I try to animate an element with BitmapEffect there's no problem. But as I create reflection with VisualBrush in XAML, the animation simply jumps from start to end. Here's the code:      1   < Grid xmlns = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation "     2           xmlns:x = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml " ShowGridLines = " True " >     3     < Grid.ColumnDefinitions >   &nb ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Extract code from .dot

  For some reason, (really not sure why, but it happens every now and then on my company's PC) my normal.dot file containing a few years' worth of customisations and home-grown macros was reset to the default a few days ago. My backup normal.dot has the toolbar customisations and lists the macros in the Tools>Macro>Macros window, but they do not run. ("Could not load Macro storage" error.) I can see snippets of the macros when I load the file into notepad. The VBA editor doesn't know they are there. Does anyone know if I can extract the macros from the .dot file - without using Word MS Office Word 2002 Windows XPpro Th ...Show All

  From the Infopath documentation: ....The InfoPathNamespace attribute (which is implemented by the InfoPathNamespaceAttribute type) is applied to a class to identify the XML DOM selection namespaces used within the class.

• Visual C# How to filter what rows of a database to show.

  Hello, I'm working on a project that uses three tables in a database, connected using foreign keys. My main table is a table of projects, I have another table of operations, where each operation has a foreign key called ProjectID that corresponds to a project in the projects table. What I want to be able to do is have a combobox with each project from the projects table, and when a user selects a project, show only the operations from the operations table that are connected to that project through the foreign key. So far I have a combo box that loads all of the projects to select, as well as other textboxes that show the other value ...Show All
