If you know of any really good documentation for XPath with vb.net, please point me to it. Now on to my real problem.

• Visual Basic Terminology

  I'm a little confused to what keywords i need to run a Google search, for example, to help me solve my problem. When my application is run, it should watch for a specific key, or combination of keys to before it runs a function. I shall be more specific: I want to capture the Printscreen and Alt + Printscreen keys which my application will catch and handle the image stored on the clipboard. I need the normal Windows Printscreen function to be running as usual, but for my application to catch when Printscreen is pressed. I have looked into keyboard hooks, which seems to override the key and isn't helpful to me, but I need to know what I need to happen is called, hence the subject. So please, can anyone enlighten me Thank you for ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System IIS constraints

  If I deploy a web application to an IIS server and I want the app to use forms authentication, I have to set the AuthFlags value to "anonymous" in the applications "Settings and Contstraints..Application Settings..Web Application" setting not in the settings and constraints for the IIS server in the LDD. This seems odd to me. I would have thought that I would need to set Anonymous on the IIS endpoint, not on the ASP appliction.
