• Matt Stum Search stops working in Outlook 2007

  Environment: Vista 2007 (final) Office 2007 (final) Outlook 2007 Search was working fine for 2 weeks and then it stopped for no apparent reason. I made sure that my folders were indexed. I rebuilt the indexes twice. I rebooted (obviously). Nothing works. I have not tried re-installing Office but I really prefer not to. The following warning appears in the Application logs : Log Name: Application Source: Microsoft-Windows-Search Event ID: 3036 Task Category: Gatherer Context: Windows Application, SystemIndex Catalog Details: The specified address was excluded from the index. The site path rules may have to be modified to include this address. (0x80040d07) Some ...Show All

• Aamir Iqbal WDS never finishes indexing

  If I watch the status, it will get down to 1 file left and then build back up to 40,000+ files left to index (I do not change very many files on this system and certainly not 40000 in a day). If I search using WDS, it says it is building the initial index. I have even left Index Now checkmarked for the last week.

• user32 Secure Data Organizer - A Free Password Manager Written in .NET 2.0

  Hi all, I've been working in .NET ever since the pre-RTM 1.0 release for my Master's Thesis. I continue to code in many languages but have been working on a pet project on the side called Secure Data Organizer. This is a free program that marks the culmination of several years of design and effort .It is a Password Manager but was designed to be the best one out there. Ease of use (even at the expense of developer pain) was a driving development principle, as was native and intuitive GUI, human-readable XML file format, and public disclosure of encryption algorithms and techniques. I released it as freeware to the web back in late November. Since then, we've grown to over 1,300 registered users--a nice starting userbase! Our big b ...Show All

• Blufire48 WDS 3.0 w/ Outlook 2007 Beta - won't return results in cached mode, does when online.

  Hi, I have been fighting WDS 3.0/Outlook 2007 for a good while now. I started with Outlook and BCM loaded, but have uninstalled BCM and re-installed Outlook alone with WDS 3.0. Everything seems fine, but my searches return no results. On a whim, the other day, I turned off "use Exchange in cached mode" and voila, WDS started returning results! This is repeatable. I turn on caching, WDS does not return results. I turn off caching, it does. I do not use a .pst file, but rather keep all my information on the Exchange Server. I wonder if it has something to do with either an Exchange Server setting, or something to do with my .ost (offline folder) file. Anyway, I wonder if others that are having trouble getting WDS to ret ...Show All

• vpborza Issue with extending profile system

  If I were to create a collection of image objects associated with each user's profile (similiar to the credit card and address collections), the MSDN documentation for extending the profiles system seems incomplete to me. Adding additional properties to the existing profile objects seems fine, and Nihit's BLOG posting is a good walkthrough for this sort of thing, but there are several steps missing from the process of creating new profile objects. Specifically, there is no mention of opening the profiles data store in SSMS and creating a new table in the profiles database. The documentation walks through creating the data source, creating the data object, and then creating the profile definition, but I didn't see anything about hav ...Show All

• pave What's this forum for when there's no SDK?

  i hope i'm missing something. As far as i can gather: there is no SDK/API/Docs yet for WDS3. This means that it's impossible to develop any filters or protocol handlers (or to even know if WDS3 supports custom filters or protocol handlers). So without the ability to develop, what is the "Windows Desktop Search Development" forum for i see people asking questions - like they are developing stuff. i want to develop stuff! How are you developing stuff http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa965362.aspx There's a decent number of code samples, and proper docs. Let us know which parts you see lacking enough depth, and we'll track it for the next release. Thanks for your feedback Geral ...Show All

• kawano1h Is it possible to change url in DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 handler?

  Is it possible to change url in DISPID_BEFORENAVIGATE2 handler I tried but can' get result till now. Thank you.

• ashoksrini Is MS trying to throw away menu bar?

  In IE7, classic menu bar is disabled by default. In Office 2007, there is not menu bar at all. Also the traditional toolbar is gone. I can't find a way to create my own custom toolbar too. What's happening I know menu bar is very classic and not pretty, but it is one single place that I am 100% sure that I can get all the features from a program. I don't want to lose it. Guess who's the major user/buyer of Microsoft Office products ... give you a hint, it's not you, the developer, it's the people who sign off on budgets, and they tend to be management types who give presentations. That said ... apparently you're just a coder/programmer, and not a developer or architect ... a lot of us developers ...Show All

• NeederOfVBHelp How To: Navigate too new page in new tab from .NET C#

  I want to open a page in a new tab, not unlike having it popup, only instead in a new tab from inside server side C# in ASP .NET 2 Thanks Your website should have cross-browser compatibility. Tabbed browsing is not supported by all browsers. BTW, there is a W3C draft named CSS3 that have mentioned this , but it is a working deaft so IE7 does not support it. Sorry, but my product requirements are not at issue, it is not a question of should, I asked how. Currently, you CAN NOT. Only the user can set his preferences to do that. In a few years, the target property of the CSS3 hyperlink module may be approved and later implemented. Even when this happe ...Show All

  I have code that writes a cookie to recall information about a customer. With Protected Mode enabled, this cookie does not get written. (The option for Protected Mode is under Tools, Internet Options, Security Tab. IE7 with Vista only to my understanding).
