• Visual Studio reports reside on another server and I get the "Load report failed" error

  Hi all. I have been working on this for couple of days now. I have a program that’s sole purpose is to be a dynamic report viewer. I have decided that this would be a good project to move to vs 2005 from vs6 c++ and make it a web app. So I began from scratch and have finished most of it, however I have ran into a problem with the crystal viewer. The reports reside on various servers and moving them is not an option. I have got some of them to w ...Show All

• Visual C++ dependencies between assemblies

  I am using VC2005 B2. I have two assemblies that have been compiled with CLR but contain a mix of managed and unmanaged classes.  Whenever I change code and rebuild the one assembly, the VC seems to recompile all of the classes in the dependent module, even though no headers have been changed.  Is this to be expected   That is the expected behavior if you have a reference from one project to the other. You can ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How do I hande exceptions in state machine workflows?

  I'm struggling with exception handling in state machine workflows.  The exception handling apparatus used in sequential workflows is simply not available in a state machine workflow. What I'd like to be able to do is "On exception SetState(dependent on exception)".

• Visual Studio ReportViewer drillthrough in WebForms looking for .rdlc instead of .rdl in Local processing

  I am creating a ASP.NET application for reporting. I have created the reports (.rdl) using the Report designer. I keep all these .rdl files in a folder and this reporting application will list these reports. Clicking on a report will generate the report. I am reading the rdl xml to get the query and query parameters, then retrieve the data and add datasource to the LocalReport. This is working fine. In the drillthrough event I get the original d ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Work item assignment

  Can two people work on the same work item simultaneously Multiple users can open (and read) workitems simultaneously. If you are using the Visual Studio UI, if two users edit the same workitem, the first person to save the workitem has his changes committed. The second person will not be allowed to save and overwrite the first persons' changes - he will have to get the latest version of his workitem and make his changes again. If you ...Show All

• .NET Development Are Async WebService Callbacks Automatically Marshaled?

  [.NET 2.0] I'm wondering if the callback from an async web service call is automatically marshaled to the UI (calling) thread. None of the documentation that I've found clarifies (or even mentions) this. My exploration project seems to indicate that the callback *is* automatically marshaled but I would like a definite answer if I can get one. private void DelayedResponse_Callback( object sender, DelayedReponseCompletedEventArgs e) ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro newKey() method not found

  I have visited this ng before with great success always getting comprehensive explanations. I started about 3 months ago and was active for about 2-3 weeks. I then switched to C#, C++ and SQL Server and I found the atmosphere in those groups much less hospitable than here. You guys are great. I got my infusion of knowledge at that time that allowed me a jump start. Now I am doing some FoxPro stuff again by necessity. I am trying to implement a M ...Show All

• .NET Development BUG

  The MSDN profile form is in a loop for some reason and I can't continue, so I can't report the bug I've found in VS2005. Create a new user control, call the project 'TestControl', rename the class to 'TestControl', put a button or a label on the user control just for a visual indication.
