• Visual Studio A blank grey window that won't disappear

  Hi, I've recently uninstalled vs 2005 beta 2 and installed vs 2005 rtm (team version). I've also installed sql server 2005 and the tfs client (refresh 3).

• Windows Forms App crashes when run from default install location

  Hi folks, A new user of my application had a problem in that the app never started. It installed fine, but crashed as soon as it ran. I tried all sorts of things to diagnose the problem, and finally out of sheer desperation I asked him to try copying the exe, the exe.config, and a few support files it uses to a new folder (under My Documents, for example) and try running it there. It ran fine. What could cause an application to work ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS Add Windows Folder?

  I've searched and I haven't been able to find any posts/blogs about this.  I'm coming from a subversion world, where windows directories actually reflect what stored in the repository. I have an app that creates the directory structure for me, but I don't seem to be able to check in directories alone.  I can check in directories once they have files in them, but this would be a pain as I'm not the person who will create ...Show All

So, I tried the same call with 'true': Microsoft.Office.T ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Explanation of UnloadOnIdle?

  Can someone provide a better explanation of UnloadOnIdle (not the property, really, the mechanism) Specifically, an understanding of when a workflow is considered to be idle would be good. I've read something about a delay causing a workflow to be idle. What about waiting for an external event I would think this would cause a workflow to be considered idle, but unless I am doing something wrong, when my state machine workflow is simply waitin ...Show All
