• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook 2007 and Word 2007 AddIns

  Hi everybody, This is my first time posting a question in this forum. Lets get straight to the problem. Situation:- I've created an addin for Word 2007 using VSTO2005 SE. My task now is to re-create the same addin (same function, same look) in Outlook 2007. Addin contains function like setting a specific language in document, calling an external exe file and so on. I've configured Outlook to use Word as its email editor. So my question is, can I just use the existing Word addin or do I need to create a separate addin for Outlook Any help is much appreciated. Thank you, Westman (Software Engineer-TNT) Hi, Thanks for the reply. When I open Outlook and tried to compose a message, the addin did not appear. What ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development How to add HDMI support in video miniport driver?

  I have some experience on VGA compatible video miniport driver development. Now the interface between the display card and monitor changes to HDMI from VGA interface. I don't know how to modify the video miniport driver to support HDMI interface. As I know in the VGA compatible video miniport driver, I need to implement SVGA functions. Now for HDMI, what should I do Hi Vicky, Since this forum is mostly about Media Foundation (the new multimedia platform for Windows Vista), and it sounds like your question has to do with driver development, I might recommend trying one of the newsgroups: http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/default.mspx . Many apologies for not pointing you to a specific newgroup; I don't know which one ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Issue with transformed vertex and alpha test

  Hi all, what I am trying to do is draw one big quad at z=0 over the image with alpha testing turned on, and color writes off. I would like to have the Z buffer filled with 0 where alpha is above a certain threshold. First I tried with a quad at coords (-1,-1,0) (1,-1,0)(-1,1,0)(1,1,0), setting transform matrices to identity (I am using a dumb vertex shader that does simple projection). The strange thing here is that the Z buffer is completely filled with 0, not only where alpha>threshold. If I try to enable color draw, I see that alpha testing is performed at least for the color channel. This might be some weird issue with my good old radeon9700 or its drivers. Then I tried with transformed vertices, like this: my vertex struct: interna ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Screen Transitions

  Ok I tried to do this the way it is done in the Spacewars game, but it dosen't work. So I was wondering is there another way to do screen transitions (Go from the title screen to the first level of your game or to any other screens in your gme). The fade in/fade out works, but all I really wanted to know is how do you switch the current screen that you are on like for example if you on the title screen of your game. Do you have to destroy the sprites used to make your title screen in order to create the sprites for the first level of your game. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Explorer requires login

  Two of my support people have an issue with Team Explorer requiring them to login each time the app is opened.  They do not have VS, just Team explorer as they are software testers. Each time they open the app, they are prompted for their username and password.  Once they supply their domain credentials they are allowed to use Team, so I dont know how it could be a permissions issue. I have a couple of dozen support people using the exact same configuration, and only these two are effected for some reason. Any thoughts or ideas Thanks in advance. MikeH I had the same problem and I solved it by explicitly adding the login info to the "Stored User Names and Password": Control Pa ...Show All
