• Software Development for Windows Vista network is frozen after a standy or hibernation

  I am running Windows Vista Business on an HP nc6230 laptop. When I resume from a Standby or Hibernation, I have to restart my laptop every time in order to use any of my network resources. I am using a wireless network. When I put the mouse over the wireless network icon in the task tray, it says that it is not currently connected to any networks. If I try to open that or click on Start - Connect To, nothing happens. No web pages will show up in Internet Explorer either. I tried to Disable the adapter in Device Manager and it froze up my laptop. In order to gain my wireless connection again, I must restart. Has anyone witnesses an issue like this or knows how to fix it I am using an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection adapter tha ...Show All

• Visual Basic Collapse Region questions

  1) When you collapse a region, and cut and paste it to a new spot, it does not stay collapsed but expands with your cursor at the end of the region. I find this very annoying a wastes time. If I cut and paste a region, I would like it stay in the collapsed state that I put it in before the cut. Is there any way to control this behavior 2) I would like a way to collapse all itmes (methods) in a region as well as the region. There are ways to collapse a method, or a region (leaving the methods in the state they were in), but I don't see how to collapse all methods in a region and the region. Is there a way to do this THanks! Bob To collapse all method in a region as well as the region, use Ctrl+M+O, use Ctrl+M+L to uncoll ...Show All

  Hey gyuz! I wrote a little program that runs any other program you want throuh a contextmenustrip.The program adds a notify icon in the tray and you can access the menu through there.All the programs you add are saved in the registry for calling them.

The Shell throws the File Not Found Exception. I don't why! Sorry guys i was away for a while! Yes the problem was the double quotes. I used quotes with Sender.toString ...Show All

So what now How to know the things about analizing.. designing.. implementing.. testing I mean I don't know how to use OOP in a concrete project.

• .NET Development ASP.NET XML Serialization Threading Question

  I have ASP.NET web application which heavily uses serialization of custom objects. I have defined this serialization class as Sealed and All Static members in a seperate dll. I do not have multiple threads in my ASP.NET application. Just one main thread that executes. Let me assume 2 users are browsing my application from two different locations. My assumption was there will be 2 appDomains loaded in memory, so that both will have their own copy of my Static class. So in that case my XML Serializer utility will be thread safe. Please let me know if I am wrong in my assumption. If there is only one copy of Sealed class for all AppDomain, my XML Serializer class will not be thread safe. Can someone explain what happens in WebServer ...Show All

• SQL Server How to find a record

  How to find a record in table without key How to get specific record in table without key field and displaying on datagrid YOu explanation has to be a bit more specific. There is no problem in finfing any values (even if there is no "key" on the column) by just using a query for retrieving the data. I also do not understand what "How to get a specific record without a key filed" means, because if you want to have a specific record, you will have to provide an identifier for extracting / querying the data from the database.
