• Software Development for Windows Vista Essential Workflow Book - XmlnsDefinition

  I have a simple writeline activity (Activity1), with a Text property that gets printed to the console when the WF executes. Following Dharma's book, I get the following error on activation of a workflow: <Activity1 Text="Test" xmlns=" http://schemas.com/xActivity " /> error 347: Could not deserialize object. The type 'http://schemas.com/xActivity. Activity1' could not be resolved.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Soap Header in WCF

  How to use Soap Headers in WCF The samples using MessageContractAttribute doesn't help to solve this. Thanks, Sangeetha Two main ways. Contractually specified headers are done using the MessageHeaderAttribute for a MessageContractAttribute-created service. Headers not part of the contract can be added to the headers properties of the OperationContext on either side. Outbound headers need to have a new OperationContextScope created in order to set the headers. Does this answer your question Note that this model is different than the ASMX one. There is no attribute that you put on top of an operation to specify adding a specific header with a default value. Instead, if you care about h ...Show All

• Windows Forms Prevent Access to Alt-Tab Menu

  Does anyone know how I can prevent access to the Alt-Tab menu when a specific form is in focus The application is designed to have a mode where it can be left unattended and people (ie: not the owner of the computer, people who should not be allowed to access anything on the computer) can use the interface to perform certain tasks.

My question to you (if you have an answer) is how can I block access to the Alt-Tab menu while in this particular Form ...Show All
