• SQL Server Is this possible? How

  hello guys, I want to create a report using a bar chart data region from a cube. The cube contains Date and Time dimentions. Here is my question: The catagory field (x-axis) value of the bar chart is dependent on the paramaters value(i.e.StartDate and EndDate). For instance if the difference between StartDate and EndDate is greater than 1 year, the x-axis value for the bar chart should come from the Date dimention and display the year value. Similarly, if the difference between StartDate and EndDate is less than a day, the x-axis value for the bar chart will come from the Time dimention and display the hours value. Does any body came a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Explorer : Need log to investigate an error

  Hi, I have currently an issue with team explorer (RC builds). I've tried uninstalling all visual studio 2005 and TFC without success (deleting any application files, VS folder, registry entries). I'm having a simple VS crash when connecting to any project (when threads read work items folder / source control) : invalidcastexception. In order to investigate, I've tried to enable /log file for devenv, but the log is empty of any explanation. Reinstalling TFS didn't resolve anything, and it's not a server problem, since other users are still able to connect to the server. Is there any way to have a decent log file to follow TFS operations Or so ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView add new row WITHOUT typing
