• 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 TFS on same server as Project Server?

  We have a dedicated server that has Project Server 2003 running on it. It has extra capacity so we would like to install TFS on it if possible. In reading the installation instructions for it, there are a couple of concerns I have as to whether this is possible. SQL Server - Project Server is not using the default SQL instance. It seems like TFS expects to use the default instance. In this case, they do not seem to conflict. Is this correct WSS - WSS is running on this box for Project Server. It uses a db called STS_boxname_1 that is not on the default SQL Server instance. The install instructions for TFS (WSS portion) ask not to pr ...Show All

• Windows Forms Object Data Source Binding - Forms vs Web

  I've had a search through the forum for an answer to this, or a similar question, as well as MSDN, but no luck, so am creating a new post. I have created asp.net forms in vs2005 using object data sources, and was pretty impressed how flexible they were, and you had the ability to map operations to business methods (select, insert, update, and delete), and specify sources for parameters (eg, if select was ByID, you could tell the wizard where the ID was to come from). My Business Object basically just wrapped TableAdapters from a dataset (eg, the update method bound to: public int Update( SCIPDataSet . SeniorDataTable seniorDataTable) { ...Show All

• SQL Server Writing to SQL Database

  I am trying to write to the Express SQL database using the My Movie Collection sample in VS2005. It seems to work fine while the program is running but when I restart the application all of the entries in the database are gone.   What do I need to do to actual put the data in the database   Thanks This issue is annoying! ! Here's the problem. The database that's used by the project uses this nifty new feature we have with SQL Express to be able to mount databases on the fly (using the AttachDbFileName attribute in the connection string). The problem is that the database itself h ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Viewing Testing Artefacts in Team Edition for Software Developers

  I am software tester working with Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Testers in a small team of software developers working with Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers.   As I raise Bugs from my manual test scripts they get automatically attached to the Bug as a link.   This should allow the developer to see the test script (manual test .mht file), result of the test and comments as to why the test failed.   This reduces the effort I have to make when raising bugs as I don’t have to rewrite the problems discovered and how to replicate them.   But as the developer is using the Team Edition for Software De ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista TaskDialog editor in the Platform SDK? (where is it)

  I saw a PDC demo last night on the integration with Vista (using the common file dialogs, integrating into the search, using task dialogs instead of long text message boxes, etc). While explaining the taskdialog APIs and showing a sample, the speaker used a SDK tool called TDEditor (task dialog editor), it looked like XAMLPad :-) but for the sdk.. xml syntax allowed you to create the task dialog easily/quickly, and then the tool generated the c++ class file, header and resource files needed for your dialog. It was also a good way to preview your dialog before you started coding. I tried searching around for it in the Nov. SDK, but I can't ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Best way to do something

  I have a project and I'm not sure the right way to go about it - I'm after some ideas. Basically it'll be a program that takes ad bookings for a magazine and allows them to be placed on pages in magazine editions. I'm thinking of setting up a class for ads, pages and editions but my problem is that an edition will have properties like date, magazine, number of pages but also contain an array of pages then a page will have properties like number, colums and also contain an array of ads, then of course the ads themselves will be individual things but contain properties such as colours, requested page, advertiser, caption, etc. ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Word Macro Runtime Error

  Hi all, I'm a complete newbie when it comes to VBA but I've been tasked with writing a macro for a Word form. The form will be linked to on a web page and has two buttons at the bottom, Accept or Decline. Basically what the boss wants to happen is that when either button is clicked the form gets attached to an email and automatically sent. At the same time a message box appears telling the applicant "thanks" and after they click "OK" on the message box he wants EVERYTHING to close. My problem is that 99% of the time the person is going to open the Word doc in IE and ActiveDocument doesn't seem to work outside of ...Show All

  i have an activex control developed in c++ (not managed c++) which is used in my windows forms application.  the purpose of developing it in c++ is mainly for performance point of view.  i have an experience in GDI+ and control development and what the said activex control does is just the same painting routines that i have been doing in .NET using the wrapper classes for graphics object, pens, brushes, etc. is there really a performance difference between using the said activex control in a .NET winform application, and having it ported into C# using the managed classes for GDI+ I think yes, GDI+ in .NET is generally fas ...Show All
