• .NET Development Web Services .net framework 2

  I have just ported an ASP.NET 1.1 application to framework version 2 and i have a problem. My solution has a Web project and a class library project.  The class library project has a web reference to a web service.  The Web project makes a call to the web service. I used to hold the url for the web service in the web.config and because the web reference was set to dynamic, this all used to work fine. Now it looks a though the class library project has a config file with the url in.  My question is how do I change the path of the url after the project has been deployed to the web server   I Can't find a ...Show All

• SQL Server Where's the bell?

  I love SQL Server Management Studio and will never go back to QA again. However, I do miss one little thing I haven't been able to set on SMS. How do I set a notification sound (for when a query terminates) like I could in QA Thanks Please do add this functionality. I know it's dumb, but it was an important part of my workspace. It's deeply irritating when functionality is removed when I upgrade to the latest version. Thanks! Hawkins ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Running WCF service endpoints on a Vista machine

  Hi, We are inquiring about running WCF service endpoints on a Vista machine. We installed them on a Win2003 server class machine, created a virtual direcotry and application, and when we browse one of the SVC files through IIS manager, it properly comes up. When doing this on a Vista machine, we get the following error: Server Error in '/PAMServiceLayer' Application. This resource cannot be found. Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its named changed. Since it's a Vista machine, it's got the WinFX version installed with the OS.

• .NET Development Getting .NET Framework Version 2.0 through Windows Update?

  I know the .NET Framework Version 1.1 was added as a Windows Update component about the same time as Windows XP SP2 was released, but what is the estimated date for when the .NET Framework Version 2.0 will be distributed through Windows Update I feel a lot more comfortable distributing .NET 2.0 applications when I know that most computers already have the .NET 2.0 framework installed allready. It is unlikely that they will ever make it a required download, heck, last time I checked the 1.1 Framework isn’t even required. The more likely scenario is that instead it will continue to be an optional (but sug ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Again Load Test - actually Multi User test

  Hi I am not a developer therefore I am trying to get everything I can, without adding lines to the code. Let's see if it is possible. :) I've read the blogs: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=122964&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/showpost.aspx postid=118191&siteid=1 but still there is something that I don't understand.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Relative path

  I have a project that opens and reads data from an Excel workbook. I'm opening the workbook by specifying the path as in: oWB = oXL.Workbooks.Open( "C:\Documents and Settings\alewis\My Documents\Visual Studio\Projects\Copy of SectionWgt\SectionWgt\bin\sect wt.xls" ) I don't know what will happen when I try Click Once but it probably won't be good.

  How do I delete a top level folder inside a project in source control For example, if I want to delete the folder "bar" in the project "foo", how can I remove a folder once it has been created Can I rename "bar" to something else, like "oranges" Can I move "bar" to some other folder in the tree The only way to delete a top level "Team Project" folder is with TFSDeleteProject.  We will be releasing TFS in Q1 of '06 - just a few months away.  We currently think we'll be having a Release candidate around the first of the year.

• Visual C# how do i prevent "show desktop" or "windows key+m" from minimizing my program?

  hi, i don't want my program to be on "TopMost" but i also don't want it to minimize. Never. even if i disable the minimize feature, the program can still be minimized by clicking on the "show desktop" icon or pressing Windows Key+M. I'd like to prevent that. Can someone tell me a possible way to do it btw, the "show desktop" button doesn't trigger the 'resize' or 'changesize' event in the form. Thanks, For the heck of it...I tried to to do this with Desawares subclassing ocx. (the best I know of) You can stop the minimize event with this....but WinKey m...will always minimize it. Looks like the only way is ...Show All
