• SQL Server MS - How About Some Answers?

  Hey MS, I realize that this a free forum, but given the number of people who have problems with SSRS configuration and the fact that there are virtually no solutions posted on MSDN, I would think that MS would be more responsive to these forum posts. The most recent post from someone who can't get SSRS working had 1,154 views , but no answers--similar to the other posts by those who can't get the product to work. There seem to be responses to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Synchronizing Predecessor Info between VSTS and Project

  Since developers will probably not look at MS Project and will look at VSTS, we feel that predecessor information needs to be captured for Tasks, since tasks frequently have dependencies. Hence, we added a custom field in the process template to specify task predecessors. However, the predecessor information specified in VSTS does not get synchronized with MS Project. Also in VSTS, the predessor info contains VSTS-ass ...Show All

  Hello, are there any meanings or researches what comes after SOA Regards, Jens Hibbeler Jens, I can't give you a real serious answer. I'm sure something will always come next, but what the next hot architecture topics is I can't say. The funniest thing I have heard lately is that SOA is on its way out and the Web 2.0 is the thing. I find this funny because it is like comparing apples to ...Show All

• SQL Server Debugging Errors with Custom Assemblies.

  I have been trying to get a custom assembly to run with SQL Reporting Services 2005, but everything I have tried up to this point produces the same result. Every column which references the Custom Assembly comes back with the value #Error. With the Preview tab, it runs fine, which leads me to believe its a permissions issue. However, I added the following <CodeGroup> tag to my rssrvpolicy.config to fix the permissions problem. <CodeGrou ...Show All

• .NET Development MDX + .NET Framework 2.0 + VCS Express Edition + Win XP x64

  Hi, For any CS code that uses managed D3D : everytime I try to compile an app. w/VCS Express Edition under the 64-bit edition of Win XP, the app. compiles ok but as soon as it is executed an exception message appears telling that the app. is not a real 32-bit native one. As far as I'm concerned, after installing .NET Framework 2.0 under a x64 OS, both versions -32 bits and 64 bits- are installed on the machine. So, it seems that, by d ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Office apps go mad when using managed com add-in

  Hello all, I created a (simple) com add-in using Visual Studio that I use in Word, Powerpoint & Excel. At start-up, the add-in adds 2 menu items to the file-menu. When the items are clicked, an instance of an (unmanged) com object is created an a method is called on that object. Since the add-in is used, we've been experiencing some strange problems in the Office applications. All this issues go away when the add-in is turned of. We ...Show All

• .NET Development Path.GetTempPath always the same?

  Will Path.GetTempPath always return a reference to the SAME root temp directory (e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\myuser\Local Settings\Temp) or could it ever trigger creation of a temporary subdirectory I don't believe this method will ever create a directory.  I think it can change depending on what the environment variables are set to, but in general you should think of it as constant.
