• Visual Studio Local or Remote mode?

I would like to climb up the right ladder here. Any responses appreciated. I see that I can create reports in local mode or remote mode. I use VS only for client server applications. A fairly small number of clients accessing a SQL Server DB (05) on a network server. At first ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Correct way to write an inherited Avalon control

  There are two options in the new class wizard that seem close enough. One is for a Custom control, where a class is generated that's derived from Control, but it's just source code, no Xaml. The other option is a User control, where a class is derived from UserControl, and includes Xaml support. Now, say I want to derive my own ComboBox or ListBox - which of the above two do I use as a start I am thinking, I generate a UserControl deri ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Version Control Commands become unavailable

  In RC1 I've started experiencing all Version Control commands becoming disabled. It doesn't happen all the time, just now and then. I did not experience this in B3R or B2. When it does occur, restarting VS does not guarantee that the problem goes away. Right Clicking on an item in the soruce tree will display a one item context menu "Command unavailable" (or something like that). And all commands in the toolbar are disabled.
