    - visual studio database projects Well - you can't get there from here No, seriously - I think you need to get the stored procedure into the Project. Once the Project is established, we don't reference the original database any more at all (unless you make it your outgoing target, in which case we recognize it at deployment time). Our model is in the Database Project, and if the stored procedure isn't in the Project, then we know nothing of its existence. And therefore, of course, can't evaluate it for the changes. I'm curious - is there a compelling reason to keep this procedure out of the project Obviously you want to update it at the same time you update it underlying table - otherwise, it's, well, broken. So what is the advantage of excluding it from the project Remember, if you just want to add it as a single SP, you can always script the procedure out of the database and then use DBPro's Project/ Import Script to add it into the Database Project, even tho' the project already exists... Let us know if this makes sense to you... Tag: Visual Studio Setup and Installation Upgrade from VS2005 90 day trial to full license Visual Studio

    - MSSCCI Source Control Bindings - relative vs absolute pathing We've always had problems branching projects in VSS in that we have always had to remove the source control bindings and replace them every time we branch. The behavior we see is that we can branch just fine, but when we open the branched solution in VS2005, the projects are all pointing to the location we branched from, and any checkin/out will happen in the old branch, not the new one. However, recently a colleague had great results just branching a solution in VSS (6.0) and doing a get on the solution in VS2005, and the bindings were fine - the projects under the solution were already pointing to the new branch without having to unbind/rebind. I started looking at the source control sections between solutions, and I noticed something strange. Some of our solutions use relative pathing to the VSS source control locations and some use absolute pathing. The ones that use absolute pathing have the binding issues, and the ones with relative pathing work just fine without unbinding/rebinding. Here is what we see with solutions that have relative pathing to VSS: SccProjectUniqueName3 = Desktop\\CONNECT\\ApplicationAdapter\\DirectPro\\CONNECT.ApplicationAdapter.DirectPro.csproj SccLocalPath3 = . CanCheckoutShared = false SccProjectFilePathRelativizedFromConnection3 = Desktop\\CONNECT\\ApplicationAdapter\\DirectPro\\ Here is what we see with absolute pathing: SccProjectUniqueName1 = ClientUtilities\\CONNECT.ClientUtilities.csproj SccProjectTopLevelParentUniqueName1 = Desktop.sln SccProjectName1 = \u0022 $/CONNECT-R2/Desktop/ClientUtilities\u0022 ,\u0020PNUAAAAA SccLocalPath1 = ClientUtilities CanCheckoutShared = false So, my question is this - how did we get in this predicament with two different ways of referencing projects in the SCC sections of these two solutions We obviously like the relative pathing solution because it keeps us from unbinding/rebinding all the time, and it "just works" like I would expect a branch action to.

    - Web Service Locked DLL's I have some DLL's added as a reference to my web project that is included in my TFS project. Whenever someone on the team attempts to build the solution an exclusive lock is granted and these DLLs are automatically checked out. How can I prevent this from happening These assemblies are not changing between builds and only provide functionality such as log4net logging.

    - Get latest of files in a solution file through the command line It is very hard to write this kind of tool, because you need to process sln, project and suo files. Suo files are binary and I don't know if their format is public. The reason you would need to play with them is because paths in the other files (sln/proj) are not always the correct after you do "Open from Source Control". Instead of changing them, Visual Studio adds translation table in suo and changes the paths on the fly. Your tool would need to do this if you want to handle all kinds of solutions/projects scenarios.

    - Can I get test results in Excel or HTML format? As far as I know, we are not going to do that in next version. But we are going to change content of test files to be more human readable and publish the schema (.XSD), in this way it would be much easier to convert them to any format you want using XSLT.

    - Problems using <SetVariables> in various places Try putting the setvar property after the import of our .targets file. If the MSBuild property is not defined when the setvar property is processed the variable is resolved as an empty string. Since the .user file is imported as part of the processing of our .targets file putting the setvar property after the import will ensure that the variables are defined. We do not merge setvar properties 每 the last one defined ※wins.§ Although these look more complex than regular MSBuild properties they really just regular properties (like AutoShrink), we are taking advantage of the MSBuild support for arbitrary XML inside a property. I have not tried the XML parsing code with comments 每 I wrote the code to be pretty forgiving if there are unexpected elements. I will have to give it a try 每 do you have an example of the XML that is failing or providing inconsistent results Tag: Visual Studio Setup and Installation Upgrade from VS2005 90 day trial to full license Visual Studio

    - Sandcastle June 2007 CTP + SHFB 1.5.0.0 The behavior of the <see> tag, and <seealso> tag I think, is to just show the member name. You can use the inner text to show alternate text including the extra namespace/class info: <see cref="SomeClass.SomeMethod">SomeClass.SomeMethod</see> This works out of the box for the VS2005 and HANA styles. The Prototype presentation style is missing the inner text part but I put a PresentationPatch.zip file up on the SHFB Releases page ( http://www.codeplex.com/SHFB ) that contains the fix for it if you need it.

    - Project References Then you need to reference the project itself, not just the compiled output. If that is a problem, then there are a couple of things you could do to mitigate the overhead of referencing Project B: - create a new solution just containing Project A and Project B. This can be your own custom solution, you don't have to have the solution file under source control or share it with anyone else, just keep it private. - set Project B to not build (Build -> Configuration Manager), you can save some time that way.

    - ReportViewer - table in report from two tables from dataset I suppose, but I don't know how to do it. Depending on exactly what it is you intend to implement, you could probably do it using embedded code in the fields. However, if you're extracting data from two or more tables according to a query (or doing the logical equivalent of a query through some other means), then a table is the most obvious and arguably easiest to use construct for holding and passing around the results. The ReportViewer also makes displaying data from a single table a snap. To turn the question around, why would you not want to use a table Tag: Visual Studio Setup and Installation Upgrade from VS2005 90 day trial to full license Visual Studio

    - unable to start debugging on the server Hello Eagle: According to your words it seems that the problem is not caused by credentials. Sorry for my mistake. You may try to start the VS 2003 with administrator account explicitly to see if the problem still exists: Right click the VS 2003 shortcut. Select ＆Run as＊ menu. Select admin account. About automatically send credential to server. But it seems that you need not to do it. You could mark your host as a trusted site (Tools -> Internet Options -> Security), and then tell IE to send credentials automatically to sites in the trusted zone. With Trusted Zones highlighted in the tab, click "Custom Level". Scroll down to the bottom and select "automatic login with current username and password".

    - TFS Orcas Beta 1 Setup Hi everyone, I recently downloaded the TFS Orca's Beta 1 from MSDN and I was trying to install the beta on a server that is running SharePoint 3.0. I was under the imression that the current "production" release of TFS supported SharePoint 2.0 natively out of the box and that the next release of TFS would support SharePoint 3.0 natively. However, when I run the Orcas Beta 1 installer, after the system scan, it says that I need to have SharePoint 2.0 installed with the latest service pack. What's the deal with the Orca's not using SharePoint 3.0 I need to do a proof-of-concept for the boss and I needed a TFS version that supported SharePoint 3.0.

Does anybody know how to change the license key and avoid having to re-install VS2005. The original version was registered with 90 trial license key. Want to re-register with my new license key.

I noticed that XP allows changing the license key but can't find this option in VS2005 product.

Thanks, Neil.
