    - Set value on edit It looks like you would like to fire a rule to EMPTY a field either 1) Whenever a work item is brought up for ediitng 2) Whenever ANY field in the work item is changed. From what you've described, it appears you really want #2, and no, there isn't a way to do that. You need to do a WHENCHANGED rule for each field you want to detect. Sorry. I will make sure this gets added to Tag: Team Foundation Server - General Installation of TFS Single-Server Deployment Visual Studio

    - New to creating reports Hello, We've decided to make a custom process template for our teams using Team System, and in it we need a couple of custom reports. I'm in charge of it, and I have absolutely no experience with Report Server and MDX. I've looked around for some sort of beginner's guide to creating reports, but haven't found anything suitable. So, can anyone direct me to a comprehensive guide to creating reports Or, if someone can help on the specific report I'm having problems with: We want a report that includes all the Requirement work items that are not linked to a task work item. Using the Report Builder, I can get all the requirements, and I can get all the requirements that are linked to a task. But I can't seem to be able to get all those that aren't linked. I suspect this is a very simple problem, but as I've said, I have no experience with MDX at all, so I'm stuck. Thanks.

    - Add/Remove operation is impossible, because the code element 'my module' is read only.

    - Can I debug 2 applications simultaneously? OK, just as a foreword, I would appreciate if anyone answering assumes a pretty low level of knowledge on my part (in all the relevant fields). Also I don't know if "applications" is the proper term. I am working with a web-application that calls to a web-service for for all DataAccess logistics. BusinessLogic and DataAccess sit in separate dlls. When I am debugging the web-site, breakpoints set in businessLogic say no symbols have been loaded and the breakpoitns will not be hit. Also, if I am debugging the web-application I cannot debug the web-service, and vice versa. Is there any way to have breakpoints hit in both applications (As well as in the other dlls ) Thanks.

    - VS 2005 / ClearCase Lockup I'm running Visual Studio 2005 under WinXP Pro and am using Rational ClearCase client ver. 2003.06.16. Recently I tried to check out a .aspx file via ClearCase while connected to my employer's LAN via a VPN connection. It took about five minutes before I could open the .NET solution and then check out the file. Once I had done this, Visual Studio froze up on me so I had to kill my VS application process. When I restarted VS, VS opened a pop-up window that said VS had encountered a problem and needs to close. It also offered to send an error report to Microsoft (like would make a difference . I told VS to send it and so it did. However, whenever I try to open VS, I get this pop-up but VS won't actually start. I tried doing a repair-reinstall using my VS CDs and I also de-installed and then re-installed VS but I keep getting this error. I'm not unable to open VS. Is there anything else I can do to repair VS 2005 other than re-image my drive and re-install everything from scratch Thanks.

Hi,

I am newbie in Team Foundation Server Setup and I just have a few question. This is the scenario:

I have SQL Server 2005 in one machine(server X). I will install my Team Foundation Server in different machine(server Y) and I will use the SQL Server of Server X as my database server. Is this possible in Single-Server Deployment I know that there is a Dual-Server Deployment wherein I may separate the database to application and I may install also the SQL server in the same machine but due to licensing issue for SQL Server we are not doing this.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Ron Duag

Hi Ron,

A single server deployment of TFS is where all components (SharePoint, SQL Server, etc) required for TFS are installed on the same machine. A dual server deployment is where TFS is separated into 2 tiers, data and application and these tiers are installed on separate machines. The data tier contains your SQL Server installation and the application tier contains SharePoint, SQL Server Reporting Services and TFS.

So for your setup you would require a dual server deployment that would allow you to use your existing SQL Server (server X) and then deploy the application tier to server Y. The TFS installation guide has really good walkthroughs for setting up a either a single or dual server deployments.

Hope that helps.
