• Visual Studio Express Editions Bug with WebBrowser control and focus. Any workarounds?

  No matter how hard I try, I can't get the WebBrowser control to truely gain focus. Even after using WebBrowser1.Focus () in my program, when I run my program the WebBrowser control doesn't really get focus until I click on it with the mouse. How do I know this Well, the arrow keys don't work to scroll the web page, nor do PageUp or PageDown, until I click on the WebBrowser control with the mouse. Same goes for moving through the links with the TAB key. Since SP1 for Visual Basic 2005 didn't change things, is there a way I can work around this problem, short of clicking on the control with the mouse Odd, it worked fine when I tested it. Location isn't important, anywhere inside the form's code. ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development Motive SamrtBridge Error

  I know this must be a common question on the forums, but I've installed Internet Explorer 7 on my home computer and I've been getting an error. Something along the lines of: "SmartBridge Alerts: MotiveSB.exe – Entry Point Not Found The procedure entry point GetProcessImageFileNameW could not be located in the dynamic link library PSAPI.DLL" ... this error pops up during startup, and in addition to this my DSL refuses to connect to the internet. I can tell because my MSN doesn't sign me in and opening IE7 results in a system freeze. Now I have followed the recommendation to rename the file all files named PSAPI.dll to PSAPIOLD.dll (except the ones found in the System32 file), and all it seems to do is remove the error; the i ...Show All

• .NET Development Efficient way to remove double quotes from a string.

  For some reason, I am reading a string out of a config file, and rather than just getting the string, I am getting it in double quotes. Here's a clip of my App.Config file   < setting name = " TextLogFileName " serializeAs = " String " > < value > C:\CodeTracingFile.txt </ value > </ setting >   When I read this value into a variable, the variable ends up with ""C:\CodeTracingFile.txt"" I don't know why the double quotes are being added, but I'd like a simple efficient way to get rid of them. I tried using String.Replace, but it wants a character, and I don't know how to specify a quote as the item I want replaced. Ok, for some reason, this seems to have worke ...Show All
