  I may be missing something but I only see 2 security groups.  - Team Foundation Administrators  - Team Foundation Valid Users Why is the Team Foundation Valid Users group not configurable Is there a document that discusses the recommended set of groups I expected to see 4 default security groups as follows:  - Project Managers  - Architects  - Developers  - Testers I created a "Team Foundation Developers Group" and mapped the users from an AD domain.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Ifelse activity in workflow

  How can I set the condition for the ifelse activity . how do I invoke the branching based on the condition. Raskal, I ended up writing an IfElseActivity of my own, due to an additional requirement I had. My requirement was to select multiple conditions for the branch, and I also wanted to pass parameters to the conditions. So I implemented an ifelse activity that takes conditions in the form of activities that implement an interface called IConditionActivity.

• Visual C# How I can detect hardware?

  How I can detect a cd-rw or dvd-rw,etc. using Visual C# in .NET 2.0 you can use the System.IO namespace.
