• Software Development for Windows Vista What are .xoml files ?

  Using .Net Framework 3.0 (dotnetfx3.exe package). I created Task 1 'Creating the Sequential Workflow' from Windows SDK. When I try to build it using MSBUILD command in the SDK command prompt I get message 'No files found with .xoml extension in the set of input files'. What file .xoml would I create Thanks. I see the matter is that .xoml file hasn't been created.

• Windows Forms Placing a control over a ToolStrip.OverFlowButton.DropDown

  I've got a ToolStrip that occasionally will have a dropdown available. The toolstrip is in a control, that has a transparent panel over it, to handle all mouse events, instead of the toolstrip handling them. At times, the toolstrip's dropdown will be dropped down programmatically. When it is dropped down this way, I cannot get it to display behind the transparent panel that is covering the control. In the code, I've tried calling the transparent panel's BringToFront method, but it still is showing behind the dropdown. Any suggestions Thanks, Chris I don't know how you would accomplish this; it might be possible using Win32 API's, but I don't know how. However, I can suggest a different method, ...Show All

  Hi, I'm trying to spin off a new process by doing something like this: ProcessStartInfo s = new ProcessStartInfo(ExeName); s.Arguements = CmdLine; Process.Start(s); I have included the proper using directives that msdn said, and the types are fine in a windows enviroment, but when I use it on Compact Framework 1.1 it isn't recognized, is there something similar I can use to create a new thread, I cannot update this device to CF 2.0 moved thread to appropriate forum I don't think you can do this in .NET CF 1.0 (there was no 1.1), but only in .NET CF 2.0 You may have to PInvoke, Create a process using CreateProcess() http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/wcecoreos5/html/wce50lrfcreatepr ...Show All

• Gadgets Can I pay someone to build a gadget for me?

  I would like to have a gadget that will allow me to watch IP cameras on my sidebar. I use Axis IP cameras around my home and would love to be able to have them on the side bar with the ability to click on it to enlarge. Is this possible Sure that wouldnt be too difficult, you could have it so you click it and the flyout opens with a bigger image, or you could undock it and have it enlarge. I could probably whip one up fairly quick if you give me an example of a stream (as i dont have an Axis IP camera myself. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Newbie Questions

  Hello! I am new to the team system. How can I analyze my Application for performance issues Is there a profiler in the Team system How do I use it Matt aha you have a profiler in the Visual Studio Team system for developers, to use it, just go to Tools/Performance Tools, where you can create a new performance session. I also recommend you to use it (it will be easier) together with unit testing, when you run unit tests, if you go to the results and right click on any test, you will be able to create performance session on that method. I know it's a really brief resume, but here I put you some really good articles about it: (three articles about how to use it): http://blogs.msdn.com/ianhu/arch ...Show All

• Gadgets Difference between Gadgets and Desktop applications

  Hi, Can anyone please list out the major differences between Gadgets in the sidebar and any Desktop applications.     Regards, Santosh Kalkeri Desktop applications are likely to be far richer because you are not constrained by the size of the application (as opposed to the limited gadget size) and the technologies at your disposal are far greater (as opposed to browser-based technologies of a gadget). However, the flexibility of a gadget to dock to the side of a screen, automatically load at runtime, be non-intrusive, etc. all make gadgets really appropriate for several functions. For example, you could never build the richness of Office or iTunes in a gadget. On the other hand, I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Visual Interdev 6.0 check in problem

  When I check out a file in Visual Interdev it does NOT show the "check" mark beside the file saying its checked out. When you try to check it back in you dont have the option to check in the file. For some reason it does not see its checked out. When I try to check it out again it says the file is checked out. I checked Visual Source Safe and the file is indeed checked out but I can't get it checked back in. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Visual Source Safe 6.0 and visual Interdev 6.0 and still can not figure out the problem. Does any one know of what might be causing this issue Another use on my team can do this with no problem so I'm assuming it has to do with my install. Thanks for any help you can give. ...Show All
