I keep running into all sorts of nuances between the "web site project" versus "web application project" - here is the latest for me: I've inherited a Visual Studio 2005 solution with several class library projects (a DAL.dll, a Biz.dll, etc.) but this is all "fronted" by a web site project rather than a web app project. While the web ...
Should unit testing be run in debug or release mode? I am using Visual Studio Standard Edition 2005 which does not come with any unit testing framework. Since I also do not want to make use of any other 3rd party unit testing framework, I used Debug.Assert to perform the actual test inside all unit test methods. However, Debug.Assert on...
How can I search for breakpoints in VS2005 or go to next breakpoint? I need this feature when I add a bunch of breakpoints to unfamiliar code, say on all bits of dodgy code connected with some some feature and I want to make sure I have broken on all of them. Kind of limited code coverage test. ...
I'm working on rewriting a vb6 application in .NET that exports our Crystal Reports to Pdfs on a daily basis. I'm running into an issue when I export to PDF, the report renders properly (2 pages) in a Crystal Report Viewer, but when I export it (either through the viewer or programatically, it turns into a 11 page document, when it shoul...

Of these 6 columns, the visiblity of the 2nd and 4th column are toggled. i.e. if 2nd column is visible, 4th is not visible and vice versa. The report displayed properly with these settings.

I have Visual Studio 2008 installed on my machine, but I haven't used it. I did open a dummy project and make sure that version 2.0 is the .NET Framework version I am using, since it is the one that suddenly doesn't work for me. Here's the warning message I get when I am trying to open an existing Windows 2005 project. "Namespace or t...

We have a rather large codebase in C++ here that needs some refactoring; since it's generally bad to start from scratch, I was wondering if there were any good free code refactoring tools for Visual Studio 2005/Visual C++ 8.0? ...
I have this weird problem. I have an icon in my C++ project's resource section, and it tells me it's "res\icon123.ico". I make some changes to this icon and save/rebuild... and while the resource editor shows the new version, the .ico file in Explorer has not changed. How is VS storing my changes and why won't it let me do what I want? ...
My visual studio 2005 solution sometimes does not open the entire projects. To clarify what I mean by the “Entire projects”, my application is consisting of different layers such as DAO, Domain, Service, Utility and finally Web.App that contains all of my .aspx, .asxc and code behind files. Each layer consists of large amount of .CS and ...
I'm using Crystal Reports within Visual Studio 2005 and I have a few custom functions that I'd like to use in all my reports. Is there a way I can add these to all the reports without simply copying & pasting? I think perhaps in other versions of CR there is a Repository for functions but I don't see it in VS2005. If not, is there a way...

I'd like to programmatically manipulate my rpt files using a macro or add-in within Visual Studio 2005. What I want to achieve is the ability to automate updating the custom functions in my reports, since there seems no way to have a single copy of the functions shared between reports. So I'd like to have a macro to: Read the functio...
