With the upcoming release of Visual Studio 2010, and all the lovely new features in C# 4.0, I would really love to update from 2008. However, over the last few years, I've managed to get student pricing, or even free versions via the MSDN Academic Alliance. Now I am no longer a student. I can't seem to justify the $AU500 pricetag of ev...
Having spent the past few weeks familiarising myself with WSS 3.0 I finally want to get around to doing some Sharepoint development. I have Visual Studio Express installed on my Sharepoint server, but when I try to install the "WSS 3.0 Tools: Visual Studio Extensions" from Microsoft it tells me that I don't have Visual Studio installed. ...
I'm trying to use Linq to run queries against a linked server on our SQL Server machine through Visual Studio. On the SQL Server, I've successfully created the linked server and can run queries on it. In Visual Studio I've added a new data connection (under Server Explorer) to the SQL Server with success but the linked server tables are...

Hey, I am wondering if anyone knows how to pull this off. Here goes. I have a multi monitor setup, and I maximize Visual Studio to both windows. I create a new vertical document tab control, so that I have one document tab control in each physical screen. This is fine. Now, I want to be able to make them work as if they were connec...
Is it possible to run an assembly created by a Visual Studio test project outside Visual Studio itself? I would like to create a test application that should be run also on machines where VS is not installed, and get a (graphical) report of the test outcomes. EDIT looking at the post provided in the accepted answer, and looking at the...
I'm debugging a C++ Win32 application and I'd like to call an arbitrary Win32 API from the context of that process, as though the program had run this line of code: DestroyWindow(0x00021c0e); But entering that into the Immediate Window gives: CXX0017: Error: symbol "DestroyWindow" not found Edit: Using the full name of the function...
Hi. An MFC, C++ application I'm working on seems to be throwing an exception deep inside a device driver. (It's an access violation writing to a NULL pointer from the looks of things. The details of the crash are not what is interesting me right now, however...) I can get the Visual Studio Debugger to break when the exception occurs ...
I'm thinking it's the placement of the C# code that is making my radio buttons not function properly - this bug so far is only showing up in IE. Hope this is enough info to get some feedback, I'm just a HTML/CSS/JS dev, thanks! <% using(Html.BeginForm("CreateCustomerAccountLogin","BookingLogin")) {%> <%=this.Hidden(x=>x.SID) %> ...
Two years ago I used eMbedded Visual Studio for Windows CE based application development. I had about 40% app performance acceleration with Intel C++ Compiler(v1.2 or v2.0) in comparison with default MS compiler (floating point issues, ARM). It was looked really helpful for me. I do remember that downloaded it from official Intel site....

Hey all, I'm adding a C++ COM dll as a reference to a C# project (Visual Studio 2008). VS adds the reference however the generated interop library does not reflect the naming in the original typelib (.idl) definition. Here's what my library definition looks like: [ uuid(...), helpstring("MyLib") ] library MyLib { [ uuid(......
i have a Gridview that has filters that can fire off the emptydata template. However when this is displayed I can still see the outline of my gridview. How can I make the Gridview disappear when the data is not present? ...
I work in at small .net shop where we currently build all our solutions using the visual studio IDE. We want to progress to a point where we're in complete control of our MSBuild scripts for build, test, deploy - making use of the MSBuild community tasks etc. I guess my question is: what will be different in Visual Studio development ex...
I'm currently working on an ASP.NET application, and I have downloaded the Visual Studio 2010 Team System beta, which I'm using for my project. In this version I learned that there is a database schema project. By searching the net I found that this project type also exists for VS 2008, but only in some of the Team System versions. I re...
The Build tab of the Project Properties in Visual Studio 2005/2008 contains the "Optimize code". The documentation states that it "... enables or disables optimizations performed by the compiler to make your output file smaller, faster, and more efficient." My question is why should I NOT have it on? Why is it not on by default? W...
Some background: I used Visual Studio quite a bit back in the pre-.Net days, and I'm now moving towards using it again. In the interveining years, I've been doing a lot of coding in other environments (Java, Python, Perl, C++, embedded C, lots of HTML/CSS/Javascript, etc) as well as a fair amount of .Net work that just didn't use Visual...
I'm curious if this is even possible. ...
