  Hi, I'm trying to get database mirror working with SQL 2005... but I'm not having much luck. Any pointers would be appreciated. I've got 3 separate machines in a work group configuration.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Anybody managed to find a workaround for the "Black Window" bug in the Nov CTP?

  I think I'll create this post as a checkpoint where people can post any info on this bug.

Other people experience it intermitently in XamlPad itself. A few links to the problem... [1] [2] ...Show All
