• Windows Forms Eumerate Sub-Folders

  All, I am trying to write something that you can point it to a directory, ex. c:\library, and it will tell me what the sub-folders are in that directory.

• .NET Development Error: Unable to open shim database

  I get this kind of events logged in the eventlog: Source: .Net Runtime Type: Error Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000.

Strange thing is: everythings seems to work OK... Rene According to Jesse it is only an access permission issue on one ore more registry keys. If you run Registry Monitor (download from www.sysinternals.com ) (no install required, but run it as Administrator) you can find ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS2005 Debugger Freezes

  The debugger takes too long to break or step into anything in certain C++ files (could be the files with STL code in them, other files seem not to have this problem) I'm receiving the popup message: "Microsoft Visual Studio is waiting for an internal operation to complete" after a while waiting and after switching the windows while debugging a program. As other message in the forum suggested, I already tried to repair my VS install, but that didn't fix the issue. After digging a little I found the debugger seems to be locking while waiting for a reply for a request sent by OLE. I am guessing I hit a bug in VS debugger, ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Express Capabilities

  From the TechEd that I saw about a month ago, it seems that SQL Express is going to support having a Report Server installed on it.  That is great.  What I don't know yet is what exactly the capabilities will be. I have already been to this link ( http://www.microsoft.com/sql/2005/productinfo/rsfeatures.mspx ) which does provide some detail, but it is a month and a half old.  By today's standards that is sometimes an eternity!  Has there been any newer information released   I'm specifically interested in whether or not the Report Server installed on SQL Server Express will support extensibility.  ...Show All
