• Visual Studio Team System A book or manual?

  I'm evaluating Visual Studio Team suite for the ability to test web page functionality. I see some promiss but I'm really struggling to see if certain capabilities exist. I'd love a reference manual on how to use visual studio testing ability but the only documentation I've found on the install. Some things I'm trying to uderstand are branching and testing for things like login screens. For example, if one screen comes up the test needs to proceed down a different path.

• SQL Server Extremely Poor Performance - Identical DB's but very different performance

  Hello Everyone, I have a very complex performance issue with our production database. Here's the scenario. We have a production webserver server and a development web server. Both are running SQL Server 2000. I encounted various performance issues with the production server with a particular query. It would take approximately 22 seconds to return 100 rows, thats about 0.22 seconds per row. Note: I ran the query in single user mode. So I tested the query on the Development server by taking a backup (.dmp) of the database and moving it onto the dev server. I ran the same query and found that it ran in less than a second. I took a look ...Show All

• .NET Development fprintf equivalent in .NET

  Hello! I've been trying to read data from a text file, which contains the data in a formatted way e.g. "Product numbers: 123, 456, 78" The .NET framework provides a nice way to read from a file stream (StreamReader.Read or StreamReadre.ReadLine), but I don't seem to figure out a way to read the data from the file in a way I've done it in simple C++ aplications like: int a, b,c; fscanff("Product number: %d, %d, %d", &a, &b, &c); Is it possible And if yes - how is it done in .NET. I am using Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. Karol Duzinkiewicz No sca ...Show All

• Visual Basic How Do I Pass Parameter/Fields Between Forms?

  I would like to pass parameters/variables between two forms. How would I do this I have a program level module and do not want to declare the variables as global throughout the whole program.
