• Visual Studio Team System Printing out the Rules

  Hi, I was wondering if there is an easy wasy to obtain a hard copy of the standard rules set. Information like Name, Description, etc. TIA There's no easy way, currently.

• Visual Basic Copy Local

  I noticed that one can copy referenced dlls to the output directory of one's project.

• Visual Studio Team System Team Build - Build Directory?

  I'm a little confused as to why the new build type wizard asks for a build directory.  You have to specify a workspace and since that specifies a local directory I would have thought that the build would just occur in that directory.  Why not just build in place Thanks Marcel for explaining our design and for the feedback. We could have asked users to define a dedicated workspace for build ma ...Show All
