• .NET Development How to Modify Codebase Path for New AppDomain

  I would like to know if there is a way to change the probing directory used by the Loader to locate assembly dependencies. What I am interested in is a way to create a new Appdomain, and modify the path used by the loader to locate assembly dependencies (I would be satisfied if I could do this in the default AppDomain).

• SQL Server Inserting custom data

  Can html be inserted into a report. For example if you generate an html page that has Chart image and table data is there a way to insert the html int the generated report.

• Visual Studio Team System Is there a way to abort a web test if it encounters errors?

  Hi, all. This is probably simple, so I apologize if this is too much of a newbie question. What I am seeing in my web tests is that if one step fails, the rest of them continue on. So, let's say my web test has 10 steps and step # 7 failed. Then steps 8, 9, and 10 are still executed. Is there any way to tell the web test to stop/abort once it encounters an error Thank you. What if you test the webtest ...Show All
