• Visual Studio Team System Errors in Team Build - TFS RC

  I've recently upgraded to TFS - RC and all is going well, except for Team Build. All the solutions build successfully when they are on their own (i.e., in their own individual build), however when I combine them up into a single Team Build, it crashes part way through with the following Error in the Application Log. (Below) I can't see any errors in the build log, it just stops ! I have tried several orderings of solutions, and it seems to die around the same point, which is in the the 5th solution, regardless of which solution the 5th one actually is !. Any thoughts Regards Mark. Application log Error: TF53010: ...Show All

• .NET Development GridView Edit button does not work for the first time

  Hello, I got a simple problem. I created a new DataGridView control and bound a DataTable on it. The problem is that if I alter data in the DataGrid nothing is changed in the DataTable not even if I call  DataTable.AcceptChanges(). I thought it should be simple task, but I just figured out some ways of changing data in combination with SQL-Databases. bye Hi, Do you mean that the changes in your DataGridView isn't sent directly to the Database Coz I just tried checking the datatable and it works. I added a datagridview and set a datatable as its datasource. After m ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office is there a "link pressed" event in outlook?

  Hi, i am developing an addin for Outlook, which when a user clicks on a link in an email message, i want to change the URL in the link to something else, based on the original one. I tried to find an event which fires when a link is clicked, but couldn't find any. Is there such an event how can i use it if not, what can be done thanks, Daniel Daniel, there is no such event for this. You would need to drop to a lower level and capture a windows message that opens a new instance of IE. This actually is not terribly hard, but it is definitely not a built-in event of Outlook. It is helpful to remember t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions C++ examples in .Net

  After I moved from the Beta 2 to the release of Visual C++ 2005 Express, I was shocked to see that even the few code examples in C++ in the .Net framework class library were gone! At this time my interest is only limited to ADO.NET so I don't know about other .Net libraries but I can't believe only C# and VB.Net are considered "worthy" of extra attention in .Net, ... or am I the victim of some weird circumstances Kamen As far as my experence so far goes, ther are no weird circumstances... there appears to be virtually no C++ examples on ADO.NET for C++.  Not just here, but everywhere I've looked for the last week and a h ...Show All

• .NET Development Can AppDomains share a TcpChannel in 2.0? Or routing data between appdomains?

  I have a server-side custom host process which has multiple AppDomains. There is one "main appdomain" and separate AppDomain for remoted server-components. In .NET 1.0 and 1.1 I had to create a separate TcpChannel for each AppDomain and thus reserve a TCP-port from the server-computer for each one of them. This was not very nice, but just barely of acceptable. It would be nice if I could share a single server-side TcpChannel for all remoted server components. An alternative: Could I somehow trap (in a low-level) the remoted communication from the client on the "main appdomain" and then route the call transparently to ...Show All

• .NET Development Javascript Validation in ASP.Net

  I am writing an ASP.Net application that needs validation for certain fields.  I found a Javascript routine that will examine a text box for uppercase, lowercase, and numerics.  I can split up the validation to return a value based on what is found. The problem is that I cannot figure out how to incorporate this Javascript with my custom error handler.  The custom error handler for ASP.Net cannot be used to weed numbers and/or special characters out of a text field.  That is why I am using the Javascript routine. This is what I am trying to add to the HTML code of my project: var numb = '0123456789'; var lwr = 'abc ...Show All
