"I really like the way you can access your work items from within Outlook. I like the way you can bring up the full work item forms, make edits, and save immediately to TFS. It was great to create new meeting requests or mail messages from the work items."

Lori Lamkin
Product Unit Manager for Team Foundation Server at Microsoft

"These types of products are important to the industry."

Joel Semeniuk
CEO and co-founder of ImagiNET Resources Corp.

"I know of a good number of companies that will love having something like this - getting their timesheet management into TFS (so it can be reported on, especially) will make life a lot easier for them."

James Manning
Software Design Engineer for Visual Studio project at Microsoft

"I like the idea of being able to link work items to e-mails and meetings. I also like that it provides non-technical information workers the option of working with TFS in a more familiar environment. Congratulations to TeamExpand on the release!"

Jason Barile
Principal Test Manager for Visual Studio Team Foundation Server at Microsoft

"TX Chrono, by TeamExpand, allows users to easily track how they are spending their time, store that information in TFS, and make it available for reporting in the warehouse."

A bit of TFS training: Sorting in Work Items Tracking

October 14th, 2009
by Olga Belokurskaya

Hi!

I thought, why don’t have some TFS training today, as I found some information in the blog by Buck Hodges which I think may be useful for someone. So today’s tip is about TFS work item tracking, explaining the sorting by more than one column.

Sorting by multiple columns is a work item tracking feature many are not acquainted with, however it exists for quite a long time in Team Explorer and Team System Web Access. You’ll be surprised, how simple it is, while using it may save some amount of time. So, here’s the recipe:

    - Holding Shift button click the headers of columns you’d like to sort.
    - To change sorting order from descending to ascending, for example, still holding Shift click the header again to flip the sort ordering.

The screenshot shows the sorting first by Priority and then by Area Level 4:

The only thing to add is that the feature works in TFS 2008/2008 SP1.
