• Visual Studio Team System WSS Customization how to remove Process Guidance?

  Not sure if this is the right forum to ask but since it gets created by TFS I'll ask here. I've been creating my own TFS template using the MSF Agile as a baseline and I'm having almost everything the way I want now, except the WSS site. I'd like to remove the Process Guidance from the left menu of the WSS sites created. Does anyone know how I can do this I already removed all the content under it by removing certain things in my TFS template (so when you click Process Guidance it gives 404 in WSS) but I'm not sure how to change the WSS site left menu. Is it the .stp file I need to customize I'm not sure what tool can open the stp file ...Show All

• .NET Development XslTransform.Transform(): Different results on different machines?

  Hi, I have an application which works fine on my development machine.  However, when I used my build on the production machine, I get an Exception. I use code like this to transform a XML string "Text" to its transformed version: XmlDocument oXML = new XmlDocument(); System.IO.StringWriter sw = null ; oXML.LoadXml(Text); XslTransform xslt = new XslTransform(); sw = new System.IO.StringWriter(); xslt.Load(XSLT); xslt.Transform(oXML, null , sw); return sw.ToString(); With the same input string and stylesheet, on my machine, it works fine and on the prodcution machine, it generates an exception.

• Visual Studio Team System MSDN Academic Alliance

  Will TFS be available for universities via the academic alliance program I couldn't find any page with any information on that. Let me also state my opinion on that: I think learning how to organise team development, manage a dev process etc is a key component of any CS education. So, I think you guys should do everything so CS faculties can provide a TFS for all their students so that they learn how to use it. Along that line I believe you should include the Team Suite in the academic alliance program instead of the pro version. I think it is so important to NOT have students use tools that are less professional than what they will use on ...Show All

• .NET Development How do I catch an exception in a form

  How do I create an exception handler at the form level without writing a try-catch round every event Suppose I have a series of user controls, all of which use a limited set of known exceptions. Let's call them CloseAppException, CloseMdiException, CloseWindowException, SignalWindowException. I wish to handle these in a default manner in a Form superclass that has no controls on it.

• SQL Server Integration Services in BOL: Is this all I get?

  Short answer NO, the beta or CTP Books Online that you're using is not all there's going to be. Make sure that you watch for the Web release of BOL that will drop around the time that SQL Server 2005 hits the streets! Read more to understand why. More information SQL Server 2005 is going to be released simultaneously in 8 or 9 languages. Since the documentation team had to lock down early to allow time for translation, the version of Books Online that you'll get on the CD in the box is going to be several months old. Think of the BOL in the box as Version 0.9, while Version 1.0 will be the RTM Web release. Meanwhile we're working non-sto ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Problem debugging CE5 app with VS2005 (no activesync)

  Hello all,  After much searching I have been able to get the deploy feature running with my c++ App from Vs2005 to my CE 5 device.  Unfortunately, I am unable to debug.  I get a "Unable to start debugging" error message from Visual Studio and not much else. The exe makes it to the device and I can run the exe from the device.  I just can't debug it.  I still have eVC++4 on my machine so I tried that and I am able to debug the same application using  eVC++4.  The app is just a simple dialog based windows app created by the wizard.   I have done tons of searching on the net and the closest thing ...Show All

• .NET Development Unload/unbind an assembly

  I have a question with respect to loading assemblies and what overhead there is if I continue to load new assemblies. What drives this question is that I have a script engine that loads VB or C# source files, builds a temporary assembly and then loads that assembly and then starts execution from a known interface. Once I'm done with the assembly I would like to release/unload/unbind the assembly and remove the temporary files. I want to do this because I assume that the assemblies are taking up space in memory and need to be released. Is this so and if it is so how do it I've answ ...Show All
