• Visual Studio Performing Reports Asyncronously

  I'm using Visual Studio 2005. When I save a report with the "perform report asyncronously" enabled, it is not doing so in my application. It executes asyncronously in the Crystal Reports XI designer, but locks my app as soon as crystal is loaded  and begins executing the query in my application. I don't see any way to inherently force the crystalreportviewer control to run the query asyncronously in a .Net application in the documentation. ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Performance Throttling?

  I have a multi-threaded C# application that loads a bunch of tables into ado.net datasets in memory for surrogate key lookups. Depending on what else is going on, it can process 100,000 to 170,000 rows per minute and usually utilizes 20-30% of each cpu.

• Visual Basic XML comments

  My group is attempting to standardize on XML commenting for all of our classes and methods. We like the "Insert comments" option in VS 2005 but would like to add an additional tag <history> to the comments section. I know that we could probably do this manually each time we add a new class, but I would like to be able to have this new section come up automatically when we insert the comment. Is there a way to modify the XML co ...Show All
