How to step inside BizTalk using the Visual Studio debugger

BizTalk is Microsoft’s flagship integration and B2B platform, and is used by many of our clients. Recently I encountered a problem where the ability to step into it with a debugger turned out to be a big help. Some creative thinking is needed to get inside a closed source .NET application, but as I’ll show in this post, a combination of tools - Visual Studio debugger plus the free dotPeek decompiler – did the trick. Even better, this technique is applicable to any situation where you need to debug a compiled application that you don’t have the source code for.

Olympic Medallist Barry Magee visits Theta

What better way to inspire staff to part with their lunch money than to invite an Olympic legend to visit the Theta office. It was a real honour for us to play host to Barry Magee and his numerous medals and trophies. He accepted our invitation and gave his time freely so that we could use the occasion to raise more funds for Cure Kids. His “Zero to Hero” talk was inspirational and much appreciated by the Theta crowd.

2014 - The Race Day Report

Start location for our third CureKids Great Adventure Race was Tapapakanga regional park on the Firth of Thames. The start location is only known 3 day before the race and the course itself released half an hour before the race as a series of grid references. This is the most stressful part of the race, plotting the course accurately onto a map before the start gun goes.
