My servers currently use the 6.0 SDK to compile VS 2008 projects. I am thinking about upgrading them to use the 7.0 SDK to compile VS 2010 projects. However, I'm worried that VS 2008 projects re-compiled using the 7.0 SDK will introduce risk and have to be QA'd again. This will be a costly process for me.
How can I ensure that VS 2008 projects compiled with the 7.0 SDK will work exactly the same as compiled with the 6.0 SDK?
I have numerous web sites created over the years. Some were created using FrontPage with aspx pages added that were created in VS 2003 or VS 2005. Others were web sites that were actually created with VS 2005 or 2008. All these older sites reside in the C:Inetpubwwwroot folder of my present development computer, with only the .sln and the .suo files residing in the project folder. All of the sites have counterparts on the Internet.I am about to build a new computer and would prefer to only install VS 2010 on it. When Previously building new computers, I installed VS 2005 and VS 2008 so that I could administer

View 2 RepliesI'm creating a website and I'm testing resgistering and Log-in.
I followed a simple tutorial to create a Log-in in Visual Studio C# template which generated a SQL Server database.Locally the Log-in and registration page works perfectly. The problem is that when I upload my site to the hosting site the navigation works but the Log-in and Registration forms send an error when clicked "Register" or "Log-in". I contacted the site and they upload my database the way it should be because I was doing it wrong. I can see all my files including the data base.
They commented me that I had to do a connection string to the data base so the login and registration forms can work. I don't understand how to do that, I know the connection string has to be declared in the Web Config File, the thing is that I don't know how to write that code and link it to my data base in the hosting site, in fact I have sample code but I don't know just what do I need to put in it.
Would something be missing, not working, or confusing if I do this? First, install SQL Server 2008 Standard, and SP1. Then, install Visual Studio 2010 Professional, unchecking SQL Server 2008 Express option. Or would I need to fix any configurations afterwards?

View 2 Repliesplayed w/ visual web developer 2010 and liked the template that i was given by creating a new project using the "asp.net web application visual basic" However my company is using visual studio 2008 and we are not upgrading anytime soon. So i'm trying to remake that template in visual web developer 2008. I've got 90% of it transfered and working, the styles and master.site and all work, except the menu. It's like the CSS isn't carying over right, the drop downs work on mouse over but I don't have the nice puffy buttons that change background color when i mouse over. I've dug though the css and asp code and can't find anything thats not linking up. Does anyone have any idea how to get this last 10% figured out?

My previous development PC was running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit and Visual Web Developer 2008 Express. My new PC has Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit and Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. My Solution contains 3 projects. The Solution has been converted from VWD 2008 to 2010 fine. There are no errors when I build either of the projects. One of them is not working though. When I start debugging, my default browser does not open (problem 1). When I browse the the website manually, pages of that specific project
View 6 RepliesI have a solution with multiple projects in it that I converted to 2010 (kept the 3.5 framework). When it imported/converted the XSD files, the file structure went from:
dd1149.xsd
dd1149.xsc
dd1149.xsc
dd149.Designer.vb
TO
dd1149.xsd
dd1149.xsc
dd1149.xsc
The designer file is now missing, that had my constructor in it. Obviously, the project won't compile as it says "Type dd1149 is not defined" Why does it not include it with 2010, is there something I'm missing?
I'd like to know if I can install both 2008 and 2010 of VWD and use SSEE2008 without ANY difficulties. I need to support some existing sites in 2008 and want to be sure that I can still do that if I load 2010.

View 3 RepliesI recently "inadvertantly" installed VWD 2010. I still have my Visual Studio 2008 (full version) installed and want to remove VWD 2010. I want to recompile my active projects under VS 2008. Here are the steps I am planning to undertake. Am I missing anything?
1. Save all active projects 2. Remove VWD 2010 using "Uninstall Programs" from the control panel.3. remove ASP 4.0 via the same route.4. Reinstall VS 2008 5. Reinstall all service packs.Will this bring me back to a fully functional VS 2008? Need I make any additional registry changes?For the record, I do like VWD 2010 and would like to upgrade to the professional version but I cannot afford to do so at this time. I need to build some console applications and this is not possible under VWD. I am also unable to install C# Express.
I tried copying the .aspx and .aspx.vb files from my existing VS 2008 web site directory into the VS 2010 project directory (which is how I converted projects from VS2005 to VS2008), but that doesn't seem to make the files appear in the project/solution in VS 2010.So, I've got this site I built in VS2008, and I want to start editing it in VS2010. What's the best way to do this?

I recently found out that you can only do full text indexing with the advanced series of SQL Express and I managed to download and install it on my machine. My question is how do I integrate it with Visual studios 2010 so that I can do the full text indexing ?
When I installed SQL Express with advanced series 2008, it created an instance of SQL Server management studio so im wondering if I have to do it there and then move the database into my project or if I can do the full text indexing from inside my project

I recently set up a new development machine for myself back in November, and naively downloaded the then-current versions of VWD Express (2010) and SQL Server Express (2008 R2). Bummer to find out that they are not compatible. VWDE 2010 won't deal with a database version beyond 655, while SQL Server 2008 R2 is 661. It's puzzling that Microsoft shows the following in its Express website [URL]Powerful Set of Free ToolsMicrosoft® Visual Web Developer® 2010 Express provides you with everything you need to start building standards-friendly Web applications.SQL Server® 2008 R2 Express Edition is a lightweight, feature-rich, powerful database for your Web data-enabled needs.
Has the issue already been fixed (i.e. if I reinstall VWD 2010 Express today, will it now handle version 661 databases? Or will the issue be fixed at some point in the future? Or is it necessary (and even possible) to remove R2 and install plain SQL Server 2008 to get databases that VWDE 2010 will work with?
