• Visual Studio Team System Deleted Project Successfully.. Recreated the project with same name/Problem is that the reports run but are all blank..

  I want to use the same name for a project that I deleted. I deleted the project because the reports were not working. After noticing that TFServerScheduler was not running, I quickly fixed that problem. All the services are now running and the problem exist for projects that were created when TFServerScheduler was not running. I create the project with the same name successfully without any errors. Reports display for new projects that hasn't been created before with the same project name. How can I get the reports to show for these projects that I created with the same name as previously deleted projects Warehouse is updated also. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How do i set the order in which to execute my unit tests?

  I tried setting the 'priority' of the unit tests so that they would be executed in the order i wish (i.e. priority 1,2,3,..etc.). However the unit tests are always executing in some random or unknown order which i cant figure out. Each of my unit tests has a dependency on the previous test that ran, so the order is very important to me. thanks, Craig Hi Craig If order of your tests is important, then you should use an Ordered Test. 1. Add an ordered test to your project 2. Add all your unit tests to the ordered test, in the order that you want them to execute 3. Run the ordered test That is the wa ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro object is not defined but uncatchable

  It is a very strange situation and I have tried various combinations to beat it for a few days--to no avail. The code kept getting more complicated so bear with me please. The issue here is that there is a treeView and an outside button that is supposed to trigger some action. This action (search) needs TreeView.SelectedItem.Text and Tag properties. If I forget to make a selection beforehand the Type (" SelectedItem") is Undefined ("U") and I hoped to catch it and issue a warning. It turns out I cannot . I do not understand why. It seems in many other situations similar traps work fine. In desperation I began using two co ...Show All

• Windows Forms Stop DataGridView from re-drawing itself?

  Hey everyone. I know this is probably a stupid question but it's been bugging me for several days now and I could really use some help. OK. I have a DataGridView on a windows form listing student names, majors, etc. If the user double-clicks on that datagrid, a separate form opens up with the fields for the user to be able to edit that record.

• Visual Studio Team System TF31002 with beta2 on VSTS and VSTF

  I have an install of the August CTP for VSTS with the TFC client, and an install of VSTF running beta 2. The TFC client cannot connect to the server, getting the following error: TF31002: Unable to connect to Team foundation server...
