Source Code from Tech Ed Available


Out of all of the sessions that I attended at TechEd 2006 only three presenters really wowed me. Todd Bleeker and Ted Pattison on MOSS 2007 / SharePoint 2007 and Scott Guthrie on ASP.Net and ATLAS. Here are the links to all of the source from those presentations.

For Todd’s artifacts you must register at the MindSharp site:

DevExpress' VS.NET Productivity Offerings (Refactoring)


[from this post: A little more on DevExpress' VS.NET Productivity Offerings...]

After the JAXDUG meeting the other night, I was talking to a few people who said that while they see value in things like DevExpress' CodeRush & Refactor! Pro, many developers won't care about it because you have to pay for it and it's hard to explain the value to your management. My first reaction to that is in the case of DevExpress, go buy their tools and try them for 60 days. If you aren't happy, get a full refund! Better yet, just try it! There's a static build that has an absolute expiration date, so you can at least kick the tires.

sp_change_users_login - to resync messed up users in SQL Server


I don't need this too often - but when I need it I usually need it fast... and can’t find it in books online… so here is my reminder. Now where are those car keys?

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174378.aspx

Use sp_change_users_login to link a database user in the current database with a SQL Server login. If the login for a user has changed, use sp_change_users_login to link the user to the new login without losing user permissions. The new login cannot be sa, and the user cannot be dbo, guest, or an INFORMATION_SCHEMA user.

EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Report';
