• Visual Studio Team System Find Changesets

  How do I go about determining which changesets were created between two dates Is there a web service that can supply this information for me Michael, The VersionControlServer object in the client OM exposes the method QueryHistory which returns an array of changesets for the specified item. If you provide $/ as the item and specify the date range, it should return all changesets that were checked in during that time period. You can also scope this to a particular team project or folder by specifying the full server path to the folder. This blog entry has an example of how to retrieve the VersionCon ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Composite Keys in the Database Explorer?

  I am working on my first application and it will include a database, so please excuse my newbishness. I have read a bit about composite keys (primary keys made up of the aggregate of multiple columns) and I have decided that this is what I need to use. But how do you set composite keys in VB There is a button in the database explorer when you select 'open table definition' but I can only set 1 column as the primary key. I tried to select "manage indexes and keys" and set up 2 columns as a unique primary key, but I must be doing something horribly wrong as I have corrupted my .xsd file (I think) several times now, causing the dat ...Show All

  Hi, I recently got the September CTP Enterprise version and installed it on box with Windows Server2003 os.

• .NET Development Can you do IE-like NTLM negitiation with HttpWebRequest in winform application?

  I am using HttpWebRequest to do an HTTP GET and receive 407, proxy authentication required, from our internal proxy server. When I sniff the network traffic I see that all requests to external sites do an NTLM handshake with the proxy server and IE handles this for me. Is there a way to do this with HttpWebRequest I've tried every combination of setting credentials on the request but still get the 407. My assumption is that I need to respond to the 407 with NTLM credentials, the way IE does, but I'm not sure how to do that. Any help will be much appreciated. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions MSI Installer and C# Express

  I am happy with most of the features in C# Express, but ClickOnce deployment is not my preference - I would really like to use MSI. Can I combine C# Express with any MSI Installation packages I assume that it is hard to find out what merge modules etc. that should be included.   Thanks in advance.
