• Visual Studio Team System Build by Project instead of Solution

  Within the Build Type, is it possible to specify the actual projects within a solution to build Currently there is a section in the build type that looks like: < SolutionToBuild Include = " $(SolutionRoot)\Some\Path\Solution1.sln " /> < SolutionToBuild Include = " $(SolutionRoot)\Another\Path\Solution2.sln " /> Instead of building an entire solution, can we specify which project in the solution to build.  I see examples of excluding projects, but this is not the same thing.  Because of dependencies, project build order can matter rather that full solution build order. Thanks in advance for any help. Mike Henri ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Listbox with different indented items

  Is there a way to implement a listbox with different indentation for the listboxitems that are bound to a XML The indentation looks like something shown below :- Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 I tried using data template to customise the layout but there is no way to create a different indentation for different items. Any clues for implementing this thank you. Do you really require the behavior of a list box If not I'd say you should use a stylized TreeView instead since it provides the hierarchical format you're looking for. However, if you require the behavior of lis ...Show All

• SQL Server sp_indexes_rowset

  I have this problem with a program connected to SQL 2000 Server Enterprise via ADO . The problem is that the program runs faster on smaller servers than on larger enterprise servers. One would expect that larger and faster server should have faster performance. However, the software is taking twice as long on the larger server. Some symptoms are: a.     The larger server has several databases and a number of other software programs connected to these databases. There is plenty of CPU, memory, hard disk and network bandwidth. b.     Occasionally, the program experience connection timeouts a ...Show All

• SQL Server Express SP1 No version #

  I downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 product today. If I right click SQLEXPR.EXE, select Properties, and select the Version tab, the File Version value is 0.0.0.0. The version listed for the GA product was 9.0.1399.6. Is this a problem to be concerned about Hi, that shouldn’t bother you, smae for me here. Look at the digital signature date, if it is sometime in April 2006 signed (as mine is) this is the right one for you. Starting the File will also come up with a EULA shwoing the Service pack Level.

• .NET Development TCPClient just "hangs" when unable to connect

  I am developing on a WM5 smartphone device. I have not had this problem for WM2003SE smartphone devices, infact the code is the same except the .NET CF versions are different (1.0 and 2.0)   Problem is, when I try to connect to a computer from the WM5 device, I do this:   this.theTcpClientProtocol = new TcpClient(someServerName, somePort); this.theNetworkStream = this.theTcpClientProtocol.GetStream();   problem is, if the application on the server end has not started the service, in other words it is not running making the port available - when creating the new TCPClient object it just hangs endlessly! ...Show All

• Visual Basic Passing a value from form to form

  What is the best way to pass a value from form to form Do I use a global variable or is there a parameter style way to do it Is there some other way Thanks for helping a newbie. If you use the properties to pass the variables around or use an overloaded constructor to initialize the object upon creation they are both valid approaches. You may overload the Constructor and use this to set the properties. This provides you with a simple method to create and initialize on the same line by using the overloaded constructor. A new feature coming in next version of VB (codename Orcas) is called Aggregate Initializers and will enabl ...Show All

• Windows Forms Format phone number

  Hello, I have a text field where the user types in a telephone number. When the user is done typing the number and the text field loses its focus I need to take whatever the user typed and format it to a standard format. i.e. ###-###-#### If a user types 1234567890  I need it to change to 123-456-7890.  Any ideas on how to do this or examples Thanks!

• Visual Studio Team System VSSConverter Failures/Flaws

  I am having no luck using VSSConvert to migrate a large VSS database into VSTF.  I could not convert the database in beta 2 and I still cannot convert it in beta 3.  I'm trying to convert a single root project and VSSConverter runs for a few hours then crashes with a Send Error type exception.  Neither VSS Analyze nor VSSConverter analyze reports any errors on the database.  VSS analyze does report several warnings associated with loss of Share/Branch, files still checked out in VSS, and a single "TF60067: Data loss due to folder move warning".  I don't really care about the checked out files right now.&nbs ...Show All

• SQL Server Fuzzy Lookup problems

  Hi everyone, Ive just started looking at the Fuzzy Lookup feature and i think i must be getting something fundamentally wrong. I have two tables - each contain different meta data representations for a set of potentially similar documents. The only chance i have of matching a document in table A to a document in table B is a common title field. However, manual input means that the titles may differ in both tables although they are potentially quite similar in most cases. In the lookup i get to specify the output columns from table B (Reference) which is fine, but i don't seem to get to choose the columns from table A that i would also ...Show All
