• SQL Server SSIS Variables not changing value?!

  Greetings my SQL friends, I have a very simple package which consists of a SQL Task component and a Script Task. The SQL Task retrieves a single value from 1 row table in one of my database and assigns that value to a variable. The Script task simply outputs the value of the variable in to a message box. I know, it's all simple stuff (I am trying to master SSIS ) The problem I have is that when I change the value of the column in my table, the value of the variable is not changing when I re-run my package. It seems to be the same value every time. What am I doing wrong ! Your help would be much appreciated. Hi dreameR, Is your SQL ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System No source control availabe after installing MSSCCI Provider

  I have installed the latest .NET framework 2.0 available and the Team Explorer from the TFS CD. I then installed the latest MSSCCI provider and rebooted. I then opened up VB6 (with SP6) and created a new project. However, nowhere in the IDE do I see the option to use any source control. Any ideas why not Thanks in advance. Go to Add-Ins->Add-In Manager and make sure that Source Code Control is Loaded. If not, you can load it by checking the Loaded/Unloaded checkbox under Load Behavior. You probably also want to check Load on Startup. --Ben ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WPF Nov 2005 samples hit-rate

  With November CTP of WinFX and VS2005 RTM, I'm having roughly a 50% success rate running the various WPF samples - mostly due to compilation errors. Does this sound about right, or is it more indicative of some problem with my system setup Thanks - that looks interesting, and it does answer another question I posted about the demise of the VisualOperations class. On a related note, I've just noticed the readme file for my installed WinFX SDK has 'september' in it, despite having installed the November CTP SDK and 'reinstalled' it as well.

• Visual Studio Team System What is an area?

  I was just testing team explorer and all the menus, and I see an option where you can add Areas and Iterations, could somebody give me a brief explanation of areas in sofwware development in cmmi Thanks Areas are a way to divide a software product into features & subfeatures. For example, the area path for one of my bugs might be something like: VSTS -> Team Foundation Server -> Version Control -> Client UI -> Branch Dialog (smaller projects probably wouldn't need to go 5 levels deep) Iterations, as you probably guessed, are more for tracking development over time. They're commonly referred to as "milestones ...Show All
