• Visual Studio Team System TF30162: Task "WITs" from Group "WorkItemTracking" failed

  This is with Beta3 on a real 2003 Standard Server SP1. Setup worked without a problem. I did change the name of the three accounts but they all work fine. I cannot create a project with a user account that's in the domain admin group. However I can create a project with the <setup> account logged on on the server directly. Thinking it's a SQL permission kinda thing, I gave the domain account all the same permissions as the <service> account, but that still did not work. I tried the deletion of the cache directory, but that did not make a difference. Can someone give me any hints how to go on with this. Peter ...Show All

• Windows Forms HTMLDocument question

  Hi, I am using the WebClient.DownloadDataAsync() method to download data from a web page. I choose this method, because I can get feedback through a WebClient event so that I can update a progress bar whilst the downloading of the data takes place. This all works as expected, but once I have downloaded the data I want to process the data using the methods of the HTMLDocument class. How can I do this and is it even possible (I know I can process the data if I downloaded it using the WebBrowser as the HTMLDocument class is known at this point!) Regards Ron. ...Show All

• .NET Development Refrerenced memory at 0x0000000c could not be "read"?

  Hello all you nice people out there in 'Sanity' land, First - a message from my sponsor: 'For the record, I'm no computer wiz. And, I also do not know all-a-da proper terminologies either. This is stated before someone ups and decides to send any defamatory e-mail my way. Thank you.' You may now return to your regularly non-scheduled e-mails. Ah, hello again. Now, sledge-in-hand, let's have it. I had installed the VisualBasic Express, oh, about 2wks ago. A very short time thereafter I got an error message. It read, reads, as follows: aspnet_state.exe.

• SQL Server MIIS 2003

  Is there any way to make MIIS 2003 install with SQL 2005, or do I have to stay with SQL 2000 SP3 for all new MIIS 2003 implementations thanks, Azin Hey all For completeness sake: MIIS (Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003) will not currently install on SQL 2005 (but can be upgraded to SQL 2005). SQL 2005 is however NOT currently supported. This support should be added with MIIS 2003 SP2 (due to be release some time this year). SSIS (SQL Server Integration Services) - is the new DTS and is completely unrelated to MIIS. I'm sure there could be some way in which the two can compliment each other (creating transforms of data ...Show All

• SQL Server How do I know where my message come from

  I have a service broker service and there are multiple clients that can put messages in the queue of that service. How do I check which message comes from which client There is no field in the queue like message_senderId or something like that. If all you need is to send back replies, then is not necesary too know the sender of the message. Simply send back replies on the conversation_handle received and they'll reach the sender. If you need to know for other reasons, look up sys.conversation_endpoints by the conversation_handle of the received message. It contains the far_fervice and far_broker_instance fields, that are the name of ...Show All

• Smart Device Development How to prevent selecting a ComboBox value pushing the shift and down keys

  Hi all, I want the user to be able to navigate through the Input controls on a form, some of these controls include ComboBoxes. I am making the user navigate by pressing shift on the keypad along with the down arrows (I have set up the relevant events to trap these and set focus() to the relevant controls).

Is there anyway I can prevent this from happening Thanks in advance. Tryst I think I ha ...Show All
