Take the following function: DataTable go() { return someTableAdapter.getSomeData(); } When I set a breakpoint in this function, is there a possibility to inspect the returned value? The "go" function is directly coupled to a datagrid in an aspx page. The only way to inspect the returned datatable, is to use a temporary variable......
Hi I want to use Visual Studio snippets to generate SQL code, for example we have standard naming conventions for foreign keys etc and it would be great if I could just expand a snippet in my SQL script file.

In .NET should you place unit test projects in with the rest of the solution? Or should there be a test solution that houses all the test projects? We have all the test projects in with our code base solution...it seems a bit cumbersome. What do you usually do? ...

Hi All, I have a collection of unmanaged dlls with a C# wrapper around them that I'm calling from a C# project. I've added a build event line that looks like: mkdir ..\Release mkdir ..\Debug copy ..\..\Includes\*.dll ..\Release\*.dll copy ..\..\Includes\*.dll ..\Debug\*.dll Problem is, when I go to publish the application, those dll...
I usually create my SQL tables and stored procedures by writing a script inside Visual Studio. This works really well for me except for one simple annoyance: VS puts blue boxes around all the SQL queries and data-manipulation commands. The purpose of these boxes is to draw undue attention to the fact that VS thinks the query can be edite...

Basically what I do now is either right click the image in browser > view image > view properties... or I open up th...

I tried googling for them, but all the sites linked to microsoft.com, from where microsoft (for some reason) has taken them down. I would really appreciate if some could help me...

Here's something I know is probably possible but I've never managed to do In VS2005(C++), While debugging, to be able to invoke a function from the code which I'm debugging.

Has anyone found a plugin for Visual Studio to allow for PowerShell syntax highlighting or IntelliSense? If not, does anyone have any idea why not? I keep hoping someone else with copious free time would have tackled this by now. I have hope since other folks have managed to take the limited documentation and build custom IntelliSense p...
Does anyone have anyone have any resources for getting started with the Visual Studio Designer and the DesignSurface? Edit: Obviously I was too vague with my first question...what I am really interested in hosting a designsurface in my own application, the intention is to provide a basic form design application to users. I was not askin...
Whenever I have a library that use across different websites/ applications I've always just added the library's project into the same solution and reference it from there. This is great when needing to debug within the solution but in all other situations it seems pointless and more space taken up in the solution explorer. Also another...
I am starting to work with Microsoft BI suite: Analysis services 2005, Business Intelligence Development Studio 2005, stuff like that.
