Annoying message when I start a debug session in the Windows CE 4.1 emulator

Every time i start a debug session in the WinCE emulator, I get this message on the virtual device: "Microsoft .NET CF 1.0 DE-String ist bereits installiert. Mö...

Has anyone managed to get Visual Studio 2003 running on Windows 7?

Yes, I know... I could set up a virtual machine running XP. Unfortunately our build environment is such that we need to be running VC2003, 2005 and 2008 concurrently and it would be much more convenient if I could run 2003 natively on Windows 7 for the few projects we have that require it. I realize some things may not be available in ...

VS 2003 reference problem

We have inherited a vb.net 2003 web project, it seems to reference another web site. I am not sure how this was done.

Any ideas how to get rid of it? Thanks ...

SVN & VS.NET 2003 - Anyway to run without modified TortoiseSVN?

Hi All, We've just inherited a massive client project that is in VS.NET 2003. We typically use SVN and I installed and put the code into SVN. It's been 5-6 years since I've had to deal with the issue that VS.NET web projects don't deal well with folders that start with ".". I used the modified tortoise version in the past, but we ha...

Why would a .lib compiled in VS2003 fail to link with code compiled with VS2008?

We just had an interesting experience in trying to link a set of code compiled using Visual Studio Express 2008 with a .lib compiled with Visual Studio 2003. All in C++. To be precise, it was the SystemC 2.2.0 kernel that was compiled in VS2003 into a .lib, and a SystemC model which was compiled in VS2008. When linking, we kept gettin...
