• Visual Basic Turning Off Quick Console in VB.NET 2005 Express

  Hello: Would like to inquire the floor how to turn the "Quick Console" off so that all my input and output would be done through a external-window console. Many thanks in advance. Tortoise Idiot Number Four Visual Basic Express does not support Debug options and that is why you don't see the Debug Options page. However, turning-off the Quick Console and routing it to the regular console window is something we'd like to support. We could not get to adding this feature in Beta2, but have already done it for the final release. You will be able to turn off the quick console window through the Debug menu. In Beta ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System When runnning unit tests What directory am I in?

  I have some Nunit tests that work fine, but are based on finding an XML file in the directory the application runs in. When I try running them in VSTS I get an error - File not found. Thanks, Tom We do not pick up files that are in the output directory -- you need to mark them as deployment items either in the run config, or on the unit test method. We will then deploy these items to the deployment directory so that your test can get access to those files. ...Show All

• SQL Server Lost SQL 2005 Tables and Stored Procedures

  I converted a program from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 all went well. I created a number of tables and stored procedures after the conversion. I backed up my .mdf and .idf files. I was having problems with SQL so I uninstalled and re-installed it. Once I re-installed it I could no longer display some tables and files. Since I am the dbo, I think I should be able to access them. There obviously is something I am missing, hopefully not the tables and sps. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you. LitePipe Please try a different forum as this one is specifically for SSIS. You might try the forum for the database engine. Matt ...Show All

What you can do is to create a new AppDomain (AppDomain.CreateDomain(...) ), load the assembly into this appdomain to work with it, and then unload the AppDomain when needed. When un ...Show All
