• Visual C++ Problem: fatal error C1083 by compiling a sourcecode

  I have written a sourcecode according to an exercise in the book "Jetzt lerne ich C++" from Jesse Liberty. As I wanted to compile it with the downloaded Visual C++ Compiler, only the error: C:\Hello.cpp(1) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: "iostream.h": No such file or directory appeared. The new header name is now just <iostream> without the .h.

• SQL Server Hiding group header/footer lines

  Is there any way to hide header/footer group lines in a table without displaying the white space For Example: Group 1 Label1 Group 2 Label2 Group 3 Label3 Detail If I put an expression in the visibility property of Group 2 to make Group 2 invisible for certain groups, it also makes Group 3 and the detail invisible as well. If I set the visibility to Label2 to hide the text for that group header, I still have the white space on the report. Is there a good way to hide (or shrink) the header/footer line of a group dynamically on a group by group basis Jim I figured it out, I wa ...Show All

• .NET Development How to limit the execution time for a web mothod call?

• Visual Studio Team System Wierd Bug in Beta2

  Hi there,     I'm not sure if you are already aware of this and fixed in Beta3. If I open query let say 'Active Bug'. Then Double click any one of the bug from it and change something, let say priority from 2 to 3, Save the bug and close it. Now if you go to 'Active Bug [Results]' document back, that bug would show the change of priority 3 if highlighted, but if you move from that bug to some other bug in the list, then the bug goes back to priority 2, I think goes back to cached view. It is very confusing during triaging the bug , if the value let say of triage field does not change for the bugs which triage has already ...Show All
