The first thing I learned about TFS is that if you have source safe installed and install TFS then you must go to Tools>Options>SourceControl and change the provider to Visual Studio Team Foundation Server.

The good thing about TFS is that it does allow you to make mistakes while adding source files and you can delete the project the bad thing is you must delete a project to rename it.

Well it has been a while since my last post and I thought I would just write and say hello to those that view my blog. I am beginning work with TFS and I will let you know my opinion on that shortly. I have learned a lot in the past few months working with Biztalk 2006. I really like the product and like the new innovations that Microsoft has done. I am, like others, awaiting the release of R2 and look forward to its capabilities. A book I would recommend reading is the "Pro Biztalk 2006" book by Apress. There are 3 in the series but I have only looked at the one.

I have been working on conversions from 2004 to 2006 for a while and have seen good results. I have seen some issues with custom adapters and pipelines but overall most things are converting seemlessly.

Well that is all for now. Enjoy and feel free to ask questions.
