• Visual Studio Visual Source Safe over Internet in old Visual Basic

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is there a "Setup" project available in Express editions?

  Maybe a dumb question, but I have Visual C# Express 2005 Beta 2 installed on my computer but it seems like it doesn't have a Setup kind of project. Isn't it available in Express editions How else, except for the Publish feature (which doesn't work as well), can I deploy my applications Resorting to 3rd party software doesn't sound too good to me. Is it something wrong with my installation It would be a pity not to include in VS 2005 such a tool. Hi A.L. Forgot to answer your other question: Setup projects are available in in the VSTS SKU. -Patrick ...Show All

• Visual C# help with data set

  Hi I have made a data set from a xml file with no problem. However how do you bind the dataset to a data grid Thank you DataMember property can only remember one assignment, since you are assigning a value in a for loop, it is going to remember only the last table name from your data set collection. Are you building a WinForms app or Web app Are you using .NET 1.1 or .NET 2.0 If you are using GridView in .NET 2.0 (at least you named your control as GridView) it can only show one table. Can you post the code where you load XML into dataset ...Show All
