• Visual Studio Stop locking up my app!

  This is something that continues to bug me about Crystal and I'm wondering if there is a workaround. I previously asked if there was an event that is triggered once the Crystal Report has completed rendering, but apparently there isn't (which is odd since this seems like the most useful event they could make). I've also found that the CrystalReportViewer will not start rendering until the document has been loaded and the report is actually added ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Will TFS work on a Windows 2000 AD domain?

  We are about to start our evaluation of the Team Foundation Server (TFS) beta 2. Our original plan was to add the server running TFS to our usual network. The problem is that our network is a Windows 2000 Active Directory (AD) domain. The installation guide for TFS clearly states that a Windows 2003 AD domain is required, though. Is there a chance of getting TFS to work on our 2000 AD domain or do we need to set up a separate Windows 2003 AD do ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Build Machine Configuration

  I guess the build verification tests run on the Team Build machine If so, then imagine an application which talks to the database. The team build machine would need to be configured with supporting config files (connection string etc) as well databases in order for the build verifcation tests to pass. What is the best practice to handle above-mentioned scenario I guess we could install the configuration files in specific directories (unles ...Show All
