• .NET Development SqlDataReader & an SQL statement problem

  Original issue went unanswered (well, unsolved) Using returned value from SqlDataSource1 so I'm trying a different route. Instead of writing to Profile, I'm going with Sessions. Here's my issue and some code. The select command won’t let me conditional Where LoginId = the value of the login textbox and Where LoginPwd = value of the password text box. The query when tested does return 164 when I enter in a test user's username and Password into the Query Bulder's "Test Query" but when I put those values into the WHERE area in the Select, it says “no TESTUSERNAME column” “no TESTUSERPASSWORD” column. I have to use WHERE ...Show All

• Visual C# compile fast, build _sloooow_

  when i compile one of the projects in my solution, the 'compile' time is very short: the 'compile complete' message appears almost emmediately. (this is with the public beta of vs2005) however, afterwards, the ide will begin to do things on the hard drive for up to 2 minutes (each time !). after that, the 'build succeeded' message appears. what is it doing in this time what can i do against that  this makes it almost impossible to work with the ide.

• SQL Server Stored Procedure being saved in System Stored Procedures

  We recently upgraded to SQL Server 2005. We had several stored procedures in the master database and, rather than completely rewriting a lot of code, we just recreated these stored procedures in the new master database. For some reason, some of these stored procedures are getting stored as "System Stored Procedures" rather than just as "Stored Procedures". Queries to sys.Objects and sys.Procedures shows that these procs are being saved with the is_ms_shipped field set to 1, even though they obviously were not shipped with the product. I can't update the sys.Objects or sys.Procedures views in 2005. What effect wi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Where to download MSFWinBuild?

  I'm in the process of customizing the MSF Agile Process Guidance.  I have been using the Process Guidance Customization Guide from the Visual Studio October SDK.

• Visual Studio Team System Suggestion: Add Version Number to Changeset.aspx page

  A lot of times, it is very helpful to see the files and version numbers that make up a change set adn then be able to cut and paste that into Outlook... the ht tp://SERVERNAME:8080/VersionControl/Changeset.aspx artifactMoniker=CHANGESETID  page is pretty helpful for this type of information... Also, in the Details of Changeset window, allow to copy the list of files to paste into an email...it should show the version number as well... In terms of version numbers, we only have changeset numbers - we intentionally cut item version numbers, so once you have a changeset, the actual files/fold ...Show All

• SQL Server Import/Export data with SQL Server 2005 Express

  Hello folks! I have installed SQL Server 2005 Express and SQL Server Management Studio Express. Everything looks ok and works fine, but I can't find the Data Import/Export Wizard.  Can anyone tell me how to Import/Export data Thank you!!!

• Visual C# Struct/class Array problem

  Any help would be greatly appreciated My problem which is two fold, when creating an instance of a struct that creates instances of other struct/array. I need to call struct Tile with a constructor so it performs its new statements, I don’t know of another way of doing this. As I can’t have a constructor with no parameters I create one that accepts a number which I just discard (I would prefer to use the default constructor, ie Tile()). Also, the line ‘Tiles = new tile[10];’ will not call the constructor I created. If I wasn’t creating an array I would use ‘Tiles = new Tile(0);’ but I can’t work out how to ...Show All

• Windows Forms Component/Control différences

  I don't really understand the difference between a component and a control, as it seems that both can be used to create a user control, for example. Can somebody explain that to me Thanks Emphyrio If you want to create an object that the user can interact with, then you need to create a control, if you want provide custom behaviour to a form that doesn't necessarily have a user interface, then use a component. To create a ComboBox with images, you wouldn't go and create a new control, you would derive from the existing ComboBox class and override functionality to provide custom drawing. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Other diagrams?

  There are UML diagrams that are really only useful during planning, and become obsolete after that.  I have found robustness diagrams to be like this, although we can argue whether or not they even count as UML. Other diagrams, sequences in particular, I find to be essential tools that I simply can't live without.  I was using Borland Together with great success despite its numerous bugs, and non-existant support.  What I found was that I could begin drawing a sequence, and it would make it obvious to me when something had been left out.  I could be sequencing a simple lookup, and as I draw the line where the presentation ...Show All
