• Windows Search Technologies cannot install WDS 3.0 with Office 2007 RTM

  Hi, I had to reinstall Windows Desktop Search on my Windows XP SP2 Dell PC, following my upgrade to Office 2007 Enterprise version.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Show TreeView nodes connected with dotted lines

  Has anybody done any work with the TreeView control to replicate the ShowLines/ShowRootLines properties from the Windows Forms Treeview and draw dotted lines to connect nodes. I can see that it may not be too difficult to draw the horizontal line of dots but the vertical line looks more challenging. For the ToolStrip menu, if you place menu inside a toolbar, you will get a different appearance that is pretty close to how winforms looks. You'll also want to restyle the toolbar so it can't be moved: <Page xmlns=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation " xmlns:x=" http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml "> <DockPanel> <ToolBarTray DockPan ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) streaming image from webcam into a WPF App

  Hi, Is there a way to stream images transmitted from a webcam into a WPF App. Is it possible in WPF -Sai If it's a computer-connected webcam, a la USB, you'll probably want to use directShow and renter it into a HwndHost. If you want the content redirected to a wpf surface, your choices are very limited. Either writing a directshow renderer to wpf, and that's no small task (I believe WPF calls down to MIL to hook up directshow output), or blit from memory to a wpf surface, which could end up being very expensive (system to video memory) so unless it's a few frames here and there you're probably better off using an HwndHost. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Integrate FxCop warnings and errors in visual studio developer edition

  I've managed to run FxCop everytime I build my project using msbuild and the msbuild communitytasks. My example: < Target Name = " CodeAnalysis " > <FxCop TargetAssemblies="bin\debug\*.dll" AnalysisReportFileName="analysis.xml" FailOnError="False" ApplyOutXsl="False" IncludeSummaryReport="True"/> </ Target > Now all warnings and errors are in the analysis.xml (for use in cruisecontrol), but is it also possible to output those errors and warnings to visual studio (developers edition) when you hit F5 Or is that only possible in VSTS Sorry, Dave's right.

• Smart Device Development Bug w/ ContactCollection.Find & ItemId

  Specifically, with OutlookSession.Contacts.Items.Find (PropertyDescriptor, object) Here's the example code: "This Guy" here. I fully agree that the ItemID class is useless, however it's not just a simple wrapper for an int. What it wraps actually depends on what entity you're looking at (IIRC it's a guid for an appointment item). What they *should* have done was make the class useful and have lots of operators so it could be used an an int, string, guid or whatever when applicable. Don't even get me started on the very, very, very poor implementation of events either. You want a fun task, when a Contact is changed, or even worse deleted, from the device, try to figure out which one it was. ...Show All

  Hi, I've downloaded the express edition packages as per the subject heading (plux the games one for much later . I am an absolute beginner. I have begun on the tutorials for VB - up to and completed lesson 9 (databinding - dancing through the non-saving of data to the database and those associated forums on that issue) - I think I understand it.

If I created a XNA based forum on it, would anyone use it True, but I find this forum kinda hard to read at times, it could be divided up better to make it easier to find the topics.

• Smart Device Development How to install .NET Compact Framework 2.0

  I may be missing something, but I have looked everywhere on how to install CF v2. I have a new iPAQ hx2495b with windows Mobile 5.0. Just applied the new ROM update from HP. Installed a small app I developed using one of the mobile webcasts. When I ran the app it gives an error saying it was using a later version of the cf than the one installed on the device. I read somewhere on a Microsoft site that new Windows Mobile 5.0 PC's did not come with v2 in their ROMS and you would have to install it. I used remote registry viewer and indeed it looks like cf is v1. So is there a step by step guide on how to install v2 onto the DEVICE Thank you!
