• SQL Server Simple migration from MySQL to SQL Server Express 2005?

• Visual Basic How to remove items from a sorted list in ListBox

  In an application in Visual Basic 6, I add items (which include dates) one at a time by using AddItem, and display them in a ListBox. Works great. Turn on Sorted property in list box and they display chronologically listed by date - even greater. BUT, when one item is selected from the list and then REMOVED by RemoveItem, it does not work correctly. The items seem to retain an array number from when they were added, and do not change to the ListIndex number of the row in the sorted list. In other words, in most cases, selecting one item (e.g. the fourth down in the sorted list) removes another one (e.g. the second, which was the fourth ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Can I disable Deployment?

  Deployment seems to be a great idea, and will go a long way in providing a robust testing environment. But in a TDD environment where developers are running tests very often it is not very practical. Not to mention the problems with Deployment Items (attributes do not work on the class, solution deployment options under Run Configuration settings have quit working for everyone in my department), and the fact that VS does not clean up after itself in the deployment root (over a few weeks of development these folders and files are beginning to take up a signigicant amount of space). It has become a *very* major headache for me and others that ...Show All

• Visual C# Serilization of a generic List of a custom type, how?

  Well, hi all. This is my first post here, since I haven't been able to find the required information anywhere else, so I will give it a go here... I am trying to make a generic list of a custom type and serializing it. Sounds simple but apparently its not. I have now boiled the problem down to a very simple example, and tried to get consistency in the problem. The problem occur every time the assembly holding the custom type is rebuild. Naturally, I can make a list of some .NET type and it works, and I think thats because the .NET assemblies are not rebuild in between. Is it a feature in .NET that it is not possible to do generic list ...Show All
