• Visual C++ warning LNK4078

  Hello, We recently ported a huge MFC app of ours from VS6 tot VS.Net 2003. Which, aside from a few hickups, went quite fine! In Debug build, everyting builds without any errors/warnings. But in Release build, each project (there are about 7) links with a lot of linker warnings: LINK : warning LNK4078: multiple '.data' sections found with different attributes (60000020) LINK : warning LNK4078: multiple '.data' sections found with different attributes (60000020) ... I googled for the warning, but this only brought me to some issues with VS6... Has anybody had this warning in VS7 How do I get rid of it Thanks in advance! Fretje ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Updating Assembly Version Information

  Hello, I am looking for a way to automatically update the version information for all projects in a TFS Build.  I have downloaded the AssemblyInfoTask from GotDotNet to take a look at it. Although it works fine for local builds I'm not sure how to use it with TeamBuild - or if it can even be used with TeamBuild.  Since the AssemblyInfo.vb (or .cs) file has to be checked out first I'm not sure how to implement this in a TeamBuild script. Has anyone had any success with getting this custom task (or any other task for that matter) to update assembly version information in TeamBuild   --- Thanks, Jeff   O ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Trial Edition & Source Control

  I received my trial edition today and am about to install it, and I've put the system on the projected budget for next year. But, I'm concerned about what happens if my employer doesn't cough up the big bucks to buy the thing. Particularly the code that is saved in the source control portion. Will it be available when the trial expires Can I get it out easily Thanks for your time. If you are using the 180-day trial edition, you'd no longer be able to get history, checkin, checkout, etc. You would still have the latest copy of the files on your disk. Buck ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Showing a form over the PPC Password screen

  I'm developing a Pocket PC app that runs at defined times, the device I'm testing on (SPVM500 or HTC Magician) has the Password configured to 'lock' the device after a number of minutes.

• SQL Server FTP task fails when run as a scheduled job

  I've created an SSIS package that retrieves a file from an FTP site.  When I create an SQL Agent job to run the package on a regular basis, it fails.  It seems that the password isn't kept (even though I set Remove Passwords to FALSE).  I've looked at the connection string in SQL Agent, and it seems to be missing key information, like the user name and password, but it is unclear what the correct syntax should be.  The error messages are completely unhelpful.
