Simplify development with Dev Container templates for Azure SQL Database
What are Dev Containers?
A development container essentially packages up your project’s development environment using the Development Container Specification (devcontainer.json). This specification enriches your container with metadata and content necessary to enable development from inside a container.
Workspace files are mounted from the local file system or copied or cloned into the container. Extensions are installed and run inside the container, where they have full access to the tools, platform, and file system. This means that you can seamlessly switch your entire development environment just by connecting to a different container.
Dev Container Templates are source files packaged together that encode configuration for a complete development environment, while Dev Container Features allow us to add runtimes, tools, and libraries inside a container. As a result, all this put together ensures a consistent and reproducible development environment from any tool that supports the Development Container Specification.
When you open your project in the dev container, your code will just work without downloading anything on your local machine. Furthermore, the best part is that when connected to a dev container, your developer experience is exactly the same as if you opened the project locally in VS Code.
Introducing Dev Container Templates for Azure SQL Database
We are excited to introduce new Dev Container templates specifically designed for Azure SQL Database. These templates support multiple programming languages, including .NET 8, .NET Aspire, Python, and Node.js, making it easier for developers to get started quickly and focus on building their applications.
Dev Containers streamline the development process by providing an out-of-the-box environment configured for Azure SQL Database. This eliminates the need for developers to spend time searching for and setting up VS Code extensions to interact with their database and preferred programming language. With these templates, you can dive straight into coding, boosting productivity and reducing setup friction.
Included with the templates is a pre-built demo database called Library, which serves as a practical example to help developers get started quickly. While these Dev Containers use the Azure SQL Edge container image, which offers a surface area close to Azure SQL Database, using SQL Database Projects ensures that your database code remains compatible with Azure SQL Database. With this demo project, you can easily use the dacpac artifact created by SQL Database Projects and deploy it to Azure SQL Database using the Azure SQL Action for GitHub Actions. This process streamlines your workflow and ensures seamless integration with your production environment.
Whether working locally or in the cloud, dev containers ensure consistency across development environments, making it easier to collaborate and maintain high standards across your team. With the inclusion of essential tools like SQLCMD, SqlPackage, Azure Command-Line Interface (CLI) and Azure Developer CLI (AZD), these templates offer a comprehensive solution for enhancing your development workflow with Azure SQL Database.
Benefits of Using Dev Containers
Dev Containers ensure a consistent and seamless experience, promoting smooth collaboration across teams and workflows, and facilitating an easy transition to Azure environments. Key benefits include:
Preconfigured environments: These come with all necessary tools and dependencies.
Consistency: Maintain uniformity across different development setups.
Simplified setup: Reduce time spent on configuration.
Enhanced collaboration: Improve teamwork within development teams.
Seamless transition to Azure: Leverage the scalability and reliability of Azure SQL Database for production deployments.
Accelerated time-to-market: Streamline development workflows and integrate seamlessly with existing toolsets, giving businesses a competitive edge.
Cost-efficient development: Reduce dependencies on cloud resources during the development and testing phases.
By using dev containers, developers can avoid the hassle of setting up and configuring their local development environment manually.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have the following tools installed on your local machine:
Git: For version control
Docker: Required for running containers
Visual Studio Code: The primary IDE to use Dev Containers
Dev Containers extension for Visual Studio Code: Enables working with Dev Containers
To set up your environment, follow these steps:
First, ensure you have Git installed for version control.
Then, install Docker, which is necessary for running containers.
After that, download and install Visual Studio Code, as it will be your primary IDE for using Dev Containers.
Lastly, add the Dev Containers extension to Visual Studio Code to enable seamless containerized development.
Setting up the Dev Container template for Azure SQL Database
Creating a Dev Container
Select the Add configuration file to workspace option if you want to add the dev container configuration file to your current local repository. Alternatively, choose the Add configuration file to user data folder option. For this qiuckstart, select the Add configuration file to workspace option.
Visual Studio Code prompts you to select a Dev Container template. The available templates are based on the tools and dependencies required for the specific development environment. Select Show All Definitions to view all available templates.
Next, select the desired Dev Container template for Azure SQL Database by typing Azure SQL into the command palette. This action displays a list of available templates designed for Azure SQL Database development.
Building the Container
Upon selection, Visual Studio Code automatically generates the necessary configuration files tailored to the chosen template. These files include settings for the development environment, extensions to install, and Docker configuration details. They’re stored in a .devcontainer folder within your project directory, ensuring a consistent and reproducible development environment.
Following the configuration file generation, Visual Studio Code prompts you to transition your project into the newly created Dev Container environment. You can do it by selecting Reopen in Container. This step is crucial as it moves your development inside the container, applying the predefined environment settings for Azure SQL development.
If you haven’t already, you can also initiate this transition manually at any time using the Dev Containers extension. Use the Reopen in Container command from the command palette or select on the blue icon at the bottom left corner of Visual Studio Code and select Reopen in Container.
This action initiates the setup process, where Visual Studio Code generates the necessary configuration files and builds the development container based on the selected template. The process ensures that your development environment is precisely configured for Azure SQL Database development.
Exploring and verifying the Dev Container
After you build the dev container, start exploring and verifying the setup. Open a terminal within Visual Studio Code to check that all necessary tools are installed and working correctly.
As an optional step, you can also run predefined tasks directly from the command palette, streamlining your development workflow and allowing you to focus on writing code.

Conclusion
Dev Containers for Azure SQL Database offer a powerful and efficient way to streamline your development process. By providing a consistent, portable environment, they help you focus on writing code and building features rather than configuring your setup. We encourage you to explore these templates and see how they can enhance your development workflow for Azure SQL Database.
Looking ahead, we will delve into more advanced topics like integrating Azure services with Dev Containers to further optimize your development process. Stay tuned for more insights and practical guides to help you get the most out of Azure SQL Database and Dev Containers.

Using arrays calculations in Excel.
In a rather complex Excel spreadsheet that I am studying to apply it, I came across a calculation step that uses arrays in such a synthetic way that I cannot decipher.
I looked on the internet and with Copilot for this calculation system, but no one has hit the nail on the head with this particular calculation solution.
In essence, in the spreadsheet there is a drop-down combo box with a list of elements for which the spreadsheet determines the static characteristics of each element chosen.
In another part of the spreadsheet, a one-dimensional array has been inserted vertically showing all the elements listed in the cell with the drop-down combo box and next to each of them the value of a certain coefficient depending on the type of element chosen in the drop-down list.
The spreadsheet reports the analysis of only one element, the one chosen in the drop-down box, while the array calculates and reports the coefficient in question for all the elements inserted in the drop-down list.
To fix the ideas, I report on an excel sheet the situation extracted from the context for greater clarity hoping that someone can recognize the steps used and explain them to me in a linear way because I am not familiar with the use of arrays in excel.
Thanking in advance the people who want to help me understand the problem, I send cordial greetings to everyone.

Advice needed: Multitenant organization issues
Hey peeps, a client of mine is asking for an optimal solution to their sub-optimal organization structure. I want to see if there’s something more I can do here or if we are stuck with our environment the way it is. It’s such a strange ask that it will take a few paragraphs to describe, so bear with me.
Client has a central corporate entity, but the “branch” entities operate separately and have a fair amount of self-governance.
This central corporate entity has a Microsoft365 tenant and that’s what everyone’s email matches, including branch members. Let’s call it corp.onmicrosoft.com with a verified domain of corp.com. So, everyone at corporate and the branches have addresses/UPNs of @corp.com.
Before my time, one of the self-governing branches chose to setup a Sharepoint site specific to their branch. They put all the files on a separate 365 tenant of corp-ny.onmicrosoft.com with verified domain corp-ny.com. There are a couple of identities on that 365 tenant, but since everyone uses their corp.com email, they access the Sharepoint data from their primary corporate identities as GUESTS of the branch’s tenant. So the branch tenant has 3 members and 100+ guests.
We perform IT for just the BRANCH, not the corporate structure. Since corporate IT is not interested in changing infrastructure at this time, we would like to convert all the guest identities on the branch tenant to members and we can then leverage technologies like Intune & CA and move them off of their on-premise AD server that is not doing AD Connect. I have a quick script that will do all of that – convert, license, set some properties for all 100 members. Seems okay! After the change, members will have their corporate identity for email, and the branch identity for Sharepoint and Windows login.
We’ve identified a problem, however, with notifications. When you comment on a file in Sharepoint, a notification is generated for anyone that participates in that file. The notification is sent from the commenter’s identity. Currently, that means notifications come from @corp.com . However, after the change those notifications will come from corp-ny.com. This domain does NOT have an MX record associated with it 🙁 and we think this will lead to a LOT of confusion if people try to reply directly to the emails. It might also have the potential(?) to fail email spoofing checks or be flagged as suspicious by email servers. Additionally, the notifications would be sent to their branch identities, which I assume would not deliver. Even if it did deliver and we added an MX record, it would be in an inbox that’s not checked by the team.
My question is:
Can I mask the notification email to be from “email address removed for privacy reasons” for all of the notifications? Or,
Can I “spoof” the emails so that they appear to be sent from the corporate identity?
Secondly,
What’s the best way to deal with notifications headed to the wrong inbox? Can a transport rule redirect these emails to their corporate emails?

Random selection of questions from an archive
Hi there,
I’m new to Forms migrating from Moodle.
What I was used to do is to set a quiz to extract 31 random questions from an archive of 170 questions, so to obtain a personalized and always different quiz for each student.
Currently, my archive of questions is in Word style and I’ve verified that the quick import of Forms can correctly read it, but it treats the whole archive as a single quiz with 170 questions. Is there any way to do the random selection trick?
Thanks a lot!

Copy-pasting variables (values) to edior in 2021b
Copy-pasting column vector values from workspace to editor used to automatically include ; and give me everything in a nicely formated single row. After updating to 2021b it results in a long list of values (each one in a separate row).
For example:
Create a column vector:
> A = [1; 2; 3; 4; 5];
Open it in the workspace, select entire column and copy (ctrl-c)
Paste in the editor results with:
1
2
3
4
5
while it used to result with:
1;2;3;4;5
Is there a way to switch back to the old behavior of copy-pasting variables?
I use it a lot, for example when saving the results in my scripts as starting values for the future and the new format makes the scripts much longer and messier.
Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions.Copy-pasting column vector values from workspace to editor used to automatically include ; and give me everything in a nicely formated single row. After updating to 2021b it results in a long list of values (each one in a separate row).

appdesigner tab view issue
Hi:
I have an app that showing the tab group at left, I noticed that when the tab name is too long, it will not be fully displayed. I tried to drag the corners of the tab but still not work, as shown in screen shot.
is there anyway to address this issue? i.e. to let the tab names fully shown.
Thanks!
