• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Setting foreground and background to be the same when a control is disabled

  Can someone suggest XAML code that would set the foreground and background of a control (say a TextBox) to be the same when it is disabled as it was when it was enabled. I mean if the Background was white and Foreground was Black when the TextBox was enabled, if the TextBox is disabled, the Background and Foreground should remain the same and not be grayed out. you can do something like this(removed the trigger which changes the colors when the textbox is not enabled) < Style x:Key = " {x:Type TextBox} " TargetType = " {x:Type TextBoxBase} " > < Setter Property = " SnapsToDevicePixels " Value = " True " /> < Setter Property = &qu ...Show All

Right... but do I have to have VS 2005 Tools for Office installed to prove that I have it This is going to sound really stupid, but I have a proper license that I've never been able to install because I have Office Standard + Access standalone instead of Office Pro (due to a mistake by our volume license provider).

• Visual C++ Executing Code

  I have used Jcreator, CodeWarrior and a dozen other compilers for various languages. Now I am using Visual C++ express to compile code (in C++ of course) and I seem to have run into a snag. In literally every toher compiler, there is a prominent 'Execute' button, however, I have looked, searched the database (as futile as that was), searched through everymenu, enquired throughout the digital world, looked at instruction s and lessons and everywhere I thought an answer could be found, and Lo, I have not discovered where Visual C++ Express has hidden its 'Execute' command/button. My professor has some version of Visual C++ where there is a single button that both compiles and Executes code, but Express apparently has no such thing. ...Show All
