what's up with the new 2010 version of VWDExpress? It seems it no longer creates the VB code behind file to go along with the markup pages. Is threre a setting somewhere that I've missed? Or is code behind no longer supported?
I recently started NOT putting code in separate file. I am using vb. I am having a problem with my database connection. The live code is working just fine....but when I try to debug locally. i get this error. connection to the database from my local visual studio is not working. A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

I have weird issue here, I have a method that takes a login Id and authenticates with LDAP active directory and returns the employee Id. It works great when I run the application in Visual studio 2008 ( it uses the default visual studio developement webserver). The code authenitcates the login id and returns emp Id perfectly. But the problem comes when I publish the code to the Local IIS in my developement PC.
I just recently upgrade my asp.net web project from visual studio 2005 to visual studio 2010. The upgrade was successful with no problems however im missing some features with this project. The One Click Publish feature(which is greyed out) in the header area of Visual Studio 2010 and the Add Config Transforms feature which is no where to be seen when you right click on web.config. When i create a new web project straight from visual studio 2010, these options work fine.
can Visual Studio 2008 be All-In-One tool to integrate source code continuously from team members, build, unit test?
Having used Visual Studio Team Edition 2005, unit testing each method within VS itself. I strongly believe that it is feasible to add-on tools. Example ankhsvn tool to use SVN from Visual studio [URL]
In my investigating i have come across number of tools(shown below) to use with Visual Studio 2008 professional
Development tool:- Visual Studio 2008 professional using Subversion as source control tool. Continuous Integration:- Hudson or Cruise control Build tool:- NAnt Testing:- NUnit, Selinium As Visual Studio 2008 can be used for unit testing I think NUnit is out of consideration.
In the same way i would like to have any other tools/add-ons to Visual studio to implement continuous integration, building and unit testing. This process should be automated such a way source code between team members is continuously integrated, built and unit testing is done as configured.
Objective is to use few number of tools as add-on to Visual Studio or achieve most from Visual studio itself (example unit testing). Visual Studio should be all in one tool.
I am aware that Team Foundation Server best suits my requirement, but it is out of scope due to its cost.
I tried the code from this article. And I got the same mistake " the parameter is not valid ". Maybe I'm not aware of something, some setting in sql server or webconfig or sth else. Anyone else who has experience from fetching images from database? The parameter is not valid is the error message. db table contains data. What am I doing wrong?
Is there any tool for Visual Studio 2008 which can reformat ASPX code to make it more presentable (eg insert line breaks, format the lines so they wrap when necessary, etc)?
I have switched over from VS2008 to VS10 (.Net4) and I program in Silverlight. But this problem isn't related to the Silverlight but more so to ASP.Net and that's why I bring it up here. My problem is if I create a SL or even a plain ASP.Net Web app, and I go to Project|ASP Configuration and click on security I get error that it can't find the database. After lots of testing, it turns out if there is no connection string with the name "LocalSqlServe" in my web.config, it does not find Machine.Config in the .Net Framework to get it's default. It also happens at runtime and not just in VS. So, my machine ASP.Net can't find machine.config file. I'm running Vista 32.
I'm so new at this it's pretty pathitic. I have Visual Studio 2008 Team edition and I'm following the walkthough in the help file about how to create your first basic site.All went well until I got to that part about "Put the insertion point after asp:Label in the <asp:Label> tag, and then press SPACEBAR.
A drop-down list appears that displays the list of properties you can set for aLabel control. This feature, referred to as IntelliSense, helps you inSource view with the syntax of server controls, HTML elements, and other items on the page. The following screen shot shows the IntelliSense drop-down list for theLabel control.IntelliSense for Label control"
I am trying to get a .txt file to be read by my server application. My problem is that i cannot get it to read user information. I would like for my application to do something like if there is a "#", to read the next 2 lines down for more information.
perhaps i have found a bug in Visual Studio 2008 Team Edition.Every thing was going well.
I started to build my project, but for certain reasons i went to Built Tab and while the project wes in build process i clicked Cancel Button.Alas!! after that my class file has gone to non-editable mode.It is giving this error:
"cannot currently modify this text in the editor.It is read only ".I closed and again opened Project but no improvement.I went to Tool->Import Export Setting->reset all settings but no benefit.
I've got a macro that updates a copyright header with the most recent edit date.
The problem I have is that the macro currently reads through the entire file rather than just the first 6 lines (which is all it needs).
Is there a way to get the Macro to only read the first "X" lines rather than the entire file?
Private selection As EnvDTE.TextSelection = DTE.ActiveDocument.Selection Private Sub UpdateCopyrightHeader() selection.StartOfDocument() selection.EndOfDocument(True) Dim content As String = selection.Text Dim result = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Replace(content, regex, "<lastedit>" & FormatDateTime(Date.Now, vbLongDate) & "</lastedit>") selection.Delete() selection.Collapse() Dim ed As EditPoint = selection.TopPoint.CreateEditPoint() ed.Insert(result) End Sub
I'm trying to build a windows application running in Windows 7 that access the TFS work items and I'm getting an error messenge that says:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client, Version=9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.
I dig up a little bit to find out what is happening and I found out that the assembly must have a strong name which I'm still trying to understand how to give one to it but before that I tried to run the same code but as aweb application and it's running just fine. Running the same windows application in windows Vista also works. Debuging the windows application in windows 7 code the error throws when a rotine that has an object been stantiated to the class TeamFoundationServer is called. This class is into the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client.dll which is the dll that I should give the strong name, and may be solve the problem. What I would like to know is if it already have happened with you to some reference doesn't work to a specifc kind of application and if giving a strong name solved your problem or from your experience what might be occurring?
I'm missing a the code browser when I create pages that have the code not placed in a seperate file. For pages with .asp.vb files I get the browser correctly.
I think it's called a code browser but just in case it's not I mean the dropdown that shows Page Events, Buttons and other controls that can be selected along with their events.
How do I turn on those dropdowns for pages with code behind that uses <script> tags in the actual .aspx page?
Included (Showing page events just under the tab):
I have a requirement to read the excel sheet contents(with first row as header) and to populate it in a Datagrid. so as to manipulate the excel sheet data. But i get an error saying "Could not find installable ISAM". after a big struggle i came to know that the culprit is the "connection string". I tried with various connection strings and now i get the error " Format of the Initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 121".
I use ResolveClientUrl to include css files in my page. When launched through web-server everything is OK, but in design mode css styles are not applied to the page. I use VS 2010 beta 2.
I replaced VS Express 2008 with 2010 on my Win 7 laptop a few weeks ago. I have a small simple website with just a master page and a default page. After making changes to the CSS file, it took no effect at all on my webpage's font and colors when viewing it in design mode or run mode. But then, it works when I test my webpage a few days later. I don't get it. Software either work or don't. Can't be both. This latest version of VS Express is buggy. Does anyone have this similar bug?
I have a simple web app project in Visual Studio 2010 (converted from 2008 project). For some reason when I publish the app, Visual Studio doesn't copy the App_Theme -folder to the publish destination folder. This will cause the app to fail when deployed to production environment.
App_Theme is considered as "system" folder by VS (shown as grey), which means that I can't manually set it's publish properties.
how to get VS to copy App_Theme -folder when deploying?
I have created a user control which is inside a folder called Controls and the class is a partial class which inherits from Web.UI.UserControl. Now from my page which is one level up I just try to access the method inside the usercontrol and so trying to cast it as the type of user control. But I get build errors. It just cannot recognize that class. I get Type not defined error. But at times it has recognized the class. Dont know why it does that.
my problem doesn't involve any programming per se but it involves the interface of VWD so I hope I'm posting in the correct space. Anyways, most of the time when I scroll over something in VWD whether it be something in the Getting Started box or an option from one of the menu bar items a full-colored block will cover it and won't go away. This doesn't seem to be hurting anything but it is quite the annoyance. Has anyone else had this problem? How can I fix this? This does seem specific to VWD and no other application on my PC.
