• Visual Studio Tools for Office Adding Smart Tag interferes with ActionsPane layout

  Hi, I am experiencing the following weird behavior. I create a user control that has nothing but a button right in the middle of it. The button is anchored LEFT + TOP + RIGHT, so as the user control's width changes, so does the buttons. I then add the user control to the ActionsPane. The following is a picture of how the ActionsPane so far http://pic.atpic.com/154853/0/jtfgimzxcdylugbmebyq Clicking on the button adds a Smart Tag to the document. The code for adding the Smart Tag works and throws no exceptions. It's a Smart Tag for dates, the dates are successfully recognized in the document and all the custom actions appear ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS labels don't match AssemblyInfoTask version #

  I'm using AssemblyInfoTask to set a custom build number, which is working great. My builds are in the format: 1.0.99.YMMDD where 99 is set to autoincrement. but TFS creates the alert email with the text "MyDailyDevBuild_20060613.1" which isn't a big deal but it uses the same string for the label it applies to the source code. I want to make the label consistent with my build number, but I'm not sure where to set that. Is there a team build reference I'm not finding It looks like your custom build number is not getting picked up at all by Team Build - are you overriding the BuildNumb ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Explorer Beta 3 issues.

  I have 4 machines with Team Suite RC, and one machine with only the Team Foundation Client, and am running Team Foundation Server B3 (single machine install): On two RC machines, where both users are set as "Project Administrators".  In Team Explorer, the Reports folder shows "Reports (working...)" and never expands and never finishes "working".  However, these users can do Team/Show Report Site, and that works...  Further, if "Stop Refresh" is clicked on these machines, Team Explorer appears to hang.  Additional weirdness...

• SQL Server Moving text file properties for sql2k dts to sql25k ssis packages???

  Hi everyone, We’ve got almost 250 old dts packages which simply loading data into Sql tables from plain files or at the reverse point. Most of them are defined with fixed fields and its fixed positions one after one. We don’t want to migrate them using Import wizard, on the contrary we’re producing them from the beggining taking advantatge of SSIS architecture to the full. And now, we’re trying to imagine how to migrate automatically that valuable info from Sql Server 2000 to Sql Server 2005 without efforts… You know, any program be able to move that detailed info to SSIS.

• .NET Development Windows service question

  Hi. I coded a Window Service using C# and I'm having a problem with it: it's using 30mb of memory which is too much for what it does. It's something like a task scheduler. The OnStart method runs a timer with one minute interval. The timer scans contents of a folder for txt files and parses them. The txt files have Sql commands, and are 4 lines. The Sql commands are very simple ones and the folder has only one txt file now. I did my best on the code and destroyed anything I could after using but this 30mb seems too much for such a simple service. I'd appreciate any ideas of what could be wrong on this one.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) reference to a object-class with datacontract??? .urgent.

  Hi, in my service I referenced to an object class "Tag". Now I'm using a client with channelfactory and want to use objects from the "Tag" class. How can I do this without letting the client referencing to the original "Tag"-class at the service-side Your copy of Tags.Tag is a different class than the original Tags.Tag class (even if they are named the same) and hence the collections are incompatible. That's what's causing that error message. Nevertheless, since WCF is built with the service orientation tenets in mind and one of them is "share schema, not class", y ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver Output Parameter/Result Set issue

  I'm having an issue with the JDBC driver when I execute a stored procedure that both has a return value and also returns a result set. If I attempt to retrieve the return value (registered as an output parameter) after I execute the stored procedure, then any subsequent attempts to retrieve the result set always return null. Is this by design If I use the result set first and then later get the return value that works; however, in my situation I need to first check the return value before I work on the result set.
