• Visual Studio Team System TFS vs Visual Source Safe 2005; which one is faster?

  A development team is currently using VSS 2005 server with a mix of VSS 6.0d and VSS 2005 clients. The developers environments for now uses Visual Studio 2003.

• .NET Development limitations with XslCompiledTransform and Xpath predicates

  I've found out (from an XslLoadException) that Xpath predicates can't be used in template match statements with XslCompliedTransform. I can use predicates in xsl:for-each statements without getting an exception but it still doesn't work correctly. Non .net implementations seem to have no problems with using Xpath predicates. I can't find any docs on XslCompiledTransform's support for Xpath predicates. Does anyone know what the limitations are ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Another question for the day, Listbox limits

  Hi, sorry for posting two questions in one day. I was wondering if there is an easy way to limit the amount of items in a listbox.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is Visual Basic 2005 Express interpreted or compiled?

  I have looked through a lot of literature, but it seems difficult to find a clear answer to this question. I can see that VB generates P-code, which is interpreted and therefore executes much slower than compiled languages, but some literature indicate that it may be possible to compile the P-code and generate a fast executing program. C is a terrible language so I am looking for a good, strong alternative, but in practice it seems that th ...Show All

• SQL Server Stupid Replication Q

  Hi, Here's the brief. I have DB_A on Server A, which I'm replicating to Server B.

Does anyone know if there is anyway round this I ideally want Transactional Replication as our need is to have an identical copy for oth ...Show All

  Hi, I'm in the process of testing out my asp.net 1.1 application under the new 2.0 framework.
