Body
In my AfterBuild script I use the following method to upload the files to the deployment server: <blockquote> <pre><code><MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Communication.Ftp TaskAction="UploadFiles" Host="localhost" FileNames="$(SomeFolder)\$(FileToUpload)" UserName="myUserName" UserPassword="myPassword" RemoteDirectoryName="/" /> </code></pre> </blockquote> How can I load these credentials from a text file or an external source? What are the alternatives? I don't want to hard-code ftp credentials into my cproj files. I used GranadaCoders method to answer my own question: <pre><code><MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile TaskAction="ReadAttribute" File="$(FTP_Credentials_File)" XPath="/parameters/setParameter[@name='host']/@value"> <Output PropertyName="FtpHost" TaskParameter="Value"/> </MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile> <MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile TaskAction="ReadAttribute" File="$(FTP_Credentials_File)" XPath="/parameters/setParameter[@name='username']/@value"> <Output PropertyName="FtpUserName" TaskParameter="Value"/> </MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile> <MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile TaskAction="ReadAttribute" File="$(FTP_Credentials_File)" XPath="/parameters/setParameter[@name='password']/@value"> <Output PropertyName="FtpPassword" TaskParameter="Value"/> </MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Xml.XmlFile> <Message Text="Attempting to uploade $(GeneratedZipFile) to $(FtpHost) as read from $(FTP_Credentials_File) ..." Importance="high" /> <MSBuild.ExtensionPack.Communication.Ftp TaskAction="UploadFiles" Condition="Exists('$(FTP_Credentials_File)')" Host="$(FtpHost)" FileNames="$(PublicFolderToDropZip)\$(GeneratedZipFile)" UserName="$(FtpUserName)" UserPassword="$(FtpPassword)" RemoteDirectoryName="/" /> </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
