The assemblies are all signed with a common key file. When I turn on code coverage all my unit tests fail with a: "Strong name verification failed for the instrumented assembly 'Business.Entity.Assets, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=522bbccfa70f591f'.

• .NET Development Are there any RSS classes in .net 1 or 2?

  I have a asp.net app using the 1.1 framework but soon to move to the 2.0 framework. And it is basically a job management system. Could someone please give me some help and knowledge as to how to create an RSS feed and what I need to do to publish a RSS feed Thanks for any help In its simplest form and RSS feed is nothing more than an XML document, or an XML file that has been saved in a publicly visible place, e.g. on a web server. Once saved, you can then announce its existence to users who might want to "consume" your published file (or feed). So yes, if you are creating the XML yourself, a ...Show All

• SQL Server Multi-Level Grouping in RS2000

  I have various reports that I need to group and subtotal at more than one level. Does RS2000 allow multiple groups I am using visual studio which seems to accept multiple grouping, however reports do not include the second group.

• SQL Server How to tell version difference between 2000 Enterprise vs. Standard

  I have kind of an urgent need here. I need to know if there is a dll file or registry key or something of that nature that I can query on to find out if my SQL 2000 installations are Enterprise or Standard. I understand I can do this using query analyser, but that will not work with my reporting tool (this is for reporting numbers of SQL installations in our very large enterprise for Microsoft license compliance).

• SQL Server Running SQL JOB for SQL Express >>>>>

  I need to run a SQL script as a job for SQL Express. How can I do this Are there any programs that will allow me to do this The solution for running schedule tasks in SQL Express is to use a Task in the Windows Task Scheduler to call SQLCmd and run the script you want to run. You can set schedules, etc. using Windows Tasks. SQL Express does not include the SQL Agent, which is the tool higher level Editions of SQL use to schedule jobs.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) FaultException

  In running the ErrorHandling sample in the sdk it always returns UnknownFaultExceptions never typed FaultException<xxx> from the Factorial calls. Also the exception handling in WCF is quite frustrating. If I call one service which in turn calls another service which throws some exception it never gets to my first service. I implement IErrorHandler on both services and the HandleError gets called in the 2nd service, but the exception never comes across. I end up getting a timeout exception in the first service. When a winform app calls into a service that fails we get System.Net socket exceptions back not typed Faultexceptio ...Show All
