Why do shared datasources have to reside with the project?

Background:
SQL SERVER 2008 r2
Visual Studio 2008
I inherited a mess that I'm trying to clean up.  We have 8 projects for a single application and each one of these projects has its own solution.  I'm trying to create a single solution that holds all 8 projects with each project in it's own folder.
 I'm able to add all 8 projects to a single solution in Visual Studio but the problem I'm having is with shared datasources and datasets.  Every one of these projects is using a single datasource pointing to the exact same database.  When I
add the shared datasource to the project it copies it to the project folder.  I end up with the exact same datasource in 8 different folders.  The same holds true for the datasets.
The report server as a separate folder for the shared datasources and another for the shared datasets.  The reports are in their own folders.  How can I replicate this hierarchy in Visual Studio?

Hi RayMajewski,
Per my understanding that you have 8 projects and you want to move these 8 projects under a single solution, but now you have some issue with the shared data sources and datasets, right?
As you know, by default when you create to add an new project, there will be three default folders under the project, if each 8 project have its own shared data sources and shared Datasets, when move to one solution, the shared data sources and
shared Datasets will keep together under the project.
Please reference to details information below to make sure you have move the project correctly.
Copy the 8 projects to the solution folder in the local disk: .\\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Solution2.
Click the file and select the Open to open "Solution/Project" to add these project to the solution one by one:
You will find the data sources and datasets move together under the project like below:
If what you want is to replicate this hierarchy in Visual Studio outside the project, currently we couldn't find any good method to do this and it is not support to keep them outside of the current project. If all the 8 project point to the same database,
you can just copy the share data source from one project to another project to create the same shared data source in another project.
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

    Why does Verizon not provide 3G coverage in Western Maryland (Garrett County) and why does it not have an agreement with US Cellular for such coverage?

        Thanks for the zip code pfekete. I looked into the coverage in your area and I do see you are in an extended 1X data coverage which explains why you're not connecting to 3G. What phone do you have? We may be able to advise you on how to adjust the settings so it picks up the strongest signal. I apologize for the inconvenience.

      I have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out.  what do I need to do.. I am using the original headset eversince. I tool it to a Apple Mac Cennter and Taked with a Service Center Rep. And he told me that they can't do anything because they don't repair the ipod they didn;t even look at it. I was told instead to buy a new one. I was very disappointed.. This is already my 5th ipod though i am planning to buy a new one.. I still want it fixed so I can give it to my little sister

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

    Hi,
    I have a grey screen and grey rotating wheel startup probs. I have tried repairing with the disk utility, resetting PRAM, booting in safe mode (which gave a subset of the errors that 'disk repair' did- namely- 'invalid sibling link,invalid record count, invalid node structure, invalid key length)  and finally trying to get to archive&install the o/s, but it cannot find the destination volume. Is an erase the only option? PS I have backed up most files individually, but my daughter did not back up any from her user account. Any help would be appreciated. J

  • IPhoto opens but then the spinning rainbow wheel appears and I can't do anything. I have opend iPhoto with the Option key pressed and rebuilt the library and it still happens.  I want to at least access my photos and copy them to an external drive.

    iPhoto opens but then the spinning rainbow wheel appears and I can't do anything. I have opend iPhoto with the Option key pressed and rebuilt the library and it still happens.  I want to at least access my photos and copy them to an external drive. Anyone have ideas on how to get to them?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • I have an issue with the Containers / Triggers.

    I have an issue with the Containers / Triggers. My issues is with the blank composition, when I edit the container to the size I need and place the target inside of that.. which is what I thought I needed to do.. Target = Image and container is the housing for said image. I want the image to appear in a certain location on my site though when I preview it. It does not display where I placed the container/ target.
    I used a blank composition at a certain size no fills no stroke, setup the 8 triggers as "buttons" which all work as expected. container is placed in a certain area and target is inside that scaled as needed. My images do not display inside of my container. Any help??

    Well I figured it out. Though I'd like to know why it still wasn't working with the previous settings.. I'll explain it better here.
    click on widgets library and add a blank widget to the page, add say 4 triggers giving them an image for their fill. Add a roller over state with its proper image. Move to the container / target boxes. My container has no fill or stroke. All 4 of them sit on top of one another. So they all fall in the same location. Add the images to the targets that match the triggers. So trigger A goes to container / target A and so on. My options for the widget were set to lightbox. not showing prev. next button or anything fancy. As soon as you preview it.. on browser, the images appear to land in the middle of the page. ( think it's due to lightbox setting) as soon as I changed the option to "stacked" it appeared to work as expected.
    So why does the lightbox default to the center of the page when you are viewing the images? Why can't it just load from where I had placed the target / containers?

  • I have a problem with the transaction CBIH82

    Hi experts,
    I have a problem with the transaction CBIH82, when I try to assign a team in the tab "EventLocation", the transaction sends me the message "Equipment not available at the functional location".
    I previously reviewed the equipment is assigned to the transaction IL03.
    No authorization errors, I checked with the transaction SU53.
    Any idea to solve this problem?
    I appreciate it.

    Hello,
    I happened to again see this post where question is yet to be answered.
    As per SAP standard design, only those equipment would be allowed which are directly installed on the functional location. What this means is that those equipment which are not directly assigned to the functional location (might be assigned to another superior equipment which in turn is assigned to the functional location) can't be saved.
    Now, I am not sure why SAP has kept it like this when the same is allowed in notification.
    Can somebody clarify the business relevance of this standard behavior??
    Regards,
    Pavan

  • Hello I have a problem with the iPhone from China apple store

    Hello
    I have a problem with the iPhone and I do not know who to turn to.
    I bought an iphone 4 in the Apple Store in Shanghai, and it has a bug! I changed the regional settings to my native language, but the search in safari goes site the Google.cn.
    What should I do? On this particular no one says. This is clearly a bug!
    Also in my phone no youtube. I know that youtube banned in China, but I'm not in China now!
    Why do not you strapped local restrictions on the location of the phone??

    eh...
    The reason I bought the iphone in China - the price is reduced by 50% сompared to the price in Russia.
    I just thought that these restrictions are useless. And Apple should remove them when you change the region ...

    iCloud pushes all your photos to the My Photo Stream album on your devices and computers, and manages them efficiently, so you don’t run out of storage space.
    Your iOS devices keep a rolling collection of your last 1000 photos in the My Photo Stream album. From there, you can browse your recent photos or move the ones you like to your Camera Roll or another album to keep them on your device forever.
    (Here's that part I'm bolding for you to reference): Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to have all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically downloaded. In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will be imported into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture. On your PC with My Photo Stream enabled in the Control Panel, all of your photos will be imported into C:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream. For iCloud Control Panel 2.0 to 2.1.2 users, the path isC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\Photo Stream\My Photo Stream .
    Exactly.  It keeps a collection of the most recent 1000 photos in your Photostream Album on your iOS device.  That's the limit of the displayed images on an iOS device.  Not the upper limit of storage.  It's like the call history.  You can have more than 100 calls, but only the most recent 100 calls show on the device. You can still get your entire call history from your wireless carrier.  And you can still download all of your Photostream photos from Photostream using iCloud Control panel on a PC, or the iCloud option in System Preferences on a Mac.

    My Photo Stream upload limits
    The My Photo Stream limits below are established based on anticipated upload patterns. Currently, My Photo Stream upload limits are as follows:
    Uploads to My Photo Stream per hour: 1000 photos
    Uploads to My Photo Stream per day: 10,000 photos
    Uploads to My Photo Stream per month: 25,000 photos
    If you exceed one of these limits, your uploads to My Photo Stream will be paused temporarily and you may see a notification message on your device. Your uploads will resume automatically after you no longer exceed one of the limits, such as in the following hour or on the following day.
    You can upload 10,000 photos in a single DAY.

When I click on the short I get the message "windows cannot find [then the web address] make sure you typed the name correctly, then try again.

  • Hello, I have a problem with the iPod, is that the iPod does not sync all the songs that are on my Itunes. I have 373 songs on the iPod and iTunes 512 in ... What do I do?

    Hello,i have a problem with the Ipod,is that the Ipod doesn't sync all the songs in my Itunes. I have 373 songs in my Ipod and 512 sons in my Itunes. What do i do?

    Hello,
    I take it you haven't unticked any of the songs listed on your iTunes Library? Also have you tried selecting all your songs which you wish to add to your iPod, and dragging them over your Devices "iPod Nano"; and seeing if that copies all songs on to your iPod?
    Another idea is just check that your iPod has enough space for the rest of your songs to be added to your device.
    Hope this helps.
