Bug theater in Web services #3

January 13, 2012

Soren has taught me yesterday that some of the bugs I encountered have been properly disinsected by Microsoft, so other than the workarounds I suggested, there is an option to apply the hotfix and forget about that one. Today, I’ll explain a not so critical bug, as the one yesterday, but depending on what exactly [...]

Bug theater in Web services #2

January 12, 2012

The bug with which I started this series is nothing critical. It manifests rarely, you can easily work around it. It’s in the “so what” category. But the one I’ll talk about today is a tough beast, with not-so-easy workarounds that cause as much headache as the bug itself. So, here comes bug #2: setting [...]

Bug theater in Web services #1

January 11, 2012

If something, Stratus has taught me how buggy the implementation of Web services in Microsoft Dynamics NAV is. Let me be clear from the onset: Web services are a great functionality in NAV, one of the best additions (together with .NET interop) to NAV stack in a long while. But it’s buggy. Being buggy doesn’t [...]

Microsoft releases Sure Step 2012

November 11, 2011

A couple of days ago, at a Sure Step 2010 training at Sundsgården, Helsingborg, Sweden, while students were preparing to take the exam, one of the students asks me where she can download Sure Step 2010. I give her the link, but she tells me: “No, that’s Sure Step 2012, I’d like to download 2010”. [...]

The Beauty and The Beast: NAV and .NET

September 30, 2011

If there wasn’t one already, someone should have invented Belgium. There are two things in this world that I love, and probably shouldn’t (and an oversized red speaker’s shirt I got from Luc today did a darned god job at concealing the unlucky consequences of overly indulging in both of them): beer and chocolate. Boy, [...]

August 24, 2011

The summer was hot in this part of the world, and Stratus only helped keep the heat up. We were not only snorkeling through the summer, we did a lot of work to keep up with our goal of going live in September, and we are still on track. So far so good. Over the [...]

Status of Stratus

June 29, 2011

I’ve been asked too many times why I am not blogging more about Stratus, the web client for NAV developed by my company. People really want to know about it, and I am really keeping it far too silent. Let’s change that. Instead of sending a ridiculous amount of e-mails every day, I’ll just keep [...]
