I have a program that needs to run as a separate NT user to connect to a SQL Server databases. For running a program itself, this isn't a big deal as I can just right click on it in windows explorer and select run as. Is there any way to run my tests as a different user as well? (it would be nice if I could do so in Visual Studio) Up...
I want to add an ajax:TabContainer to my webpage. I don't get any build errors, but when I try to browse to the page, it gives me the error: "The Controls collection cannot be modified because the control contains code blocks (i.e. <% ... %>).". I re-downloaded the Ajax Control Toolkit for the sample sites, opened the solution in VS, ra...

When I use Build->Publish Web Site in Visual Studio 2008, most of the time it compiles the site, and then simply asks me "All files in the target folder will be deleted. Continue?" (or something to that effect). On occasion, however, when publishing a project in Visual Studio, I would get a dialog box that would give me the choice of rep...
Basically what I need is an automated way to update the product version number in WiX (3.0 with Votive etc), and then get that version number into an Inno Setup "bootstrapper" I pretty much have the process mostly automated, however version numbers still need to be updated manually which obviously isn't ideal, but I couldn't find how to...

Another developer wrote an ASPX page that is compiling and working and in that code, he references child controls within a FormView directly as properties of the page object. The page is part of an ASP.NET Web SITE Project (as opposed to a W...

I have this same issue on other boxes even with VS 2008 Standard and VS 2005 Professional. ...
I need to use the ReSharper Unit Test Runner to run my MSTest Unit Tests on VS 2008. I have heard of using "Gallio" to do this but I don't know what Gallio is (it seemed like some all purpose VS extensibility framework). Does anyone know the best way to run MSTest Unit Tests using ReSharper Test Runner? ...

What needs to happen before we can open Web Application Projects hosted in IIS7 with Visual Studio 2008 without running as Administrator? Are we talking about waiting for the next version of Visual Studio? Are there any existing workarounds? I think it's implied by the above, but this pertains to Vista. Thanks. ...
I've just upgraded a native C++ project from VS2005-SP1 to VS2008-SP1 The first thing I tested was a very basic functionality test of the application and the first thing I noticed is that the main number-crunching algorithm performs three times slower in the VS2008 binary. I tested again the VS2005 binary to make sure there isn't any oth...
My colleague has an app that hosts a simple WCF service with a net.tcp endpoint. I can add the service reference to any app I create using the address net.tcp://192.168.0.22:9999/GSS-POS/QueryDispatcher/mex However, when he tries to add the service reference to an app running on his machine he immediately gets a socket error 10045. We...
Hi, I'm assuming this is an easy question, but I'll be darned if I can find the answer. I have a website in Visual Studio 2008. The paths to the stylesheets (and images) are in the following format /css/stylesheetname.css At the root of the web project in Visual studio the folder exists as does the stylesheet. These paths work fine wh...

Hi, I'm using Visual Studio Team System 2008 and I want to be able to have the 'Reason' field always enabled for work items. Currently, the 'Reason' drop down is only enabled when changing the 'State'. Once you perform a 'Save' the 'Reason' drop down becomes disabled. I've tried doing this by modifying the process template, but it can...
In VS2008, Is it possible to launch the executable for a project that is not the active project in the solution? (i.e. its name is not in bold). Not debugging it - just launching it. As far as I can see, you just have to drop in to Windows Explorer and double click the .exe! Am I missing a menu item or shortcut? ...
Hi, I'm getting a weird error occassionally in VS2008. A colleague gets a similar error, we both noticed it after installing TFS PowerToys so I'm wondering if it's related. Anyway the error is: Team Foundation Error Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID{GUIID...} failed due to the following error: 80040154, Any he...
When programming in C++ in Visual Studio 2008, why is there no functionality like that seen in the refactor menu when using C#? I use Rename constantly and you really miss it when it's not there. I'm sure you can get plugins that offer this, but why isn't it integrated in to the IDE when using C++? Is this due to some gotcha in the wa...
