• Windows Search Technologies CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE? WDS STILL NOT WORKING

  Hi Everybody, It's getting very frustrating that WDS Beta 2 is still not working for me. It only works from within Outlook 2007 beta 2 technical refresh 2, but i always get " NOTHING FOUND " from the normal Search Deskbar.This while i basically went through all possible settings 100 times and installed, deinstalled and reinstalled the product multiple times, the last two weeks. Also if i install another search engine, like your friend Google or Copernic, it works instantly. Something must be broken somewhere, but everything else on my computer is working fine and actually it's quite a fresh install. Can somebody please make a point about this and help me out Am i the only one with this problem, i can't imagine. Sure, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Generate documentation under .Net 2.0?

  I really need to generate some documentation under .Net 2.0. I know that this issue has been raised in a previous post few month ago, but no explicit solution has been provided. Also the NDoc project seems dead (as suggest the broken wiki). Does anyone has a practical (even minimal) solution to generate documentation for .Net 2.0 Thanks in advance, Joannes Hi All, If you haven't already seen this, here is the hyperlink to the latest NDoc05 Beta on sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php group_id=163095 Hope this helps, Kind regards, Frank M.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to bind values to the Grid in WPF?

  I have created a Grid object and added column and row definitions to the Grid. I want to bind the data for the grid columns. Is there any way to bind the data for the Grid as like normal VS .Net 2003 (i.e. DataGrid1.DataSource = ds) If it is not possible in WPF, how can i bind the values to the Grid in WPF. OTHER IMPORTANT Thing is I want to create a DataGrid which is to be good look-and feel (Which should not be like normal WinForms grid, instead it should be good style as with moulded borders, using nice colors, and should also perform event handling.(such as mouse move, mouseover,dragover..) It should also allow us to add any type of controls(such as Calender control, dropdownlist, popup menus, context menus). It also ha ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Using Device Emulator to support non-local WinMobile users

  Greetings, I'd like to use the DE to support multiple WM devices, all apart from my physical location. Ideally, I'd like each emulator image to run the same ROM image as the deployed device and have the same appearance. From the emulator's help file, it seems I can extract a run-time image from a connected physical device, so it looks like I can handle the first desired item. I've looked high and low for emulator skins without luck. Barry Bond's August 06 link http://msdn.microsoft.com/mobility/downloads/Emulator/default.aspx,%20lists is not found any longer. Lastly, I have downloaded, via Verizon & UT Starcom, the AKU 2.2 update for its XV-6700. The ROMS are in .nbf. Any development tools to make them usable with the emula ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Show what is going on faster

  When I have a program doing something that takes a few minutes, I like to show them the status, so they know that it is not locked up. The progress bar is a pretty good solution, if you know how many 'things' there are. The label and text or even button text works, but slows the program down quite a bit when it is refreshed. A very unique solution I have found is to create a new window form. Remove all the buttons from it, lock it into the top view (always on top), and resize it so it JUST shows the title bar. Make it invisible. Now, when you need it, call it as shown: dim fr as new formname fr.show fr.text = "Loading record " & record & " of " & totalRecords fr.refresh Update it when y ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Screen dimensions for the 360

  I'm wanting to port my XNA Beta 2 games across to the 360 but before I start I have a couple of questions about the screen resolution. I'm wanting to be able to support standard def 4:3 and 16:9 as well as high def 4:3 and 16:9. Now, for the aspect ratio, I'm assuming I can just create a project matrix with the correct ratio, like: Matrix.CreatePerspectiveFieldOfView(MathHelper.ToRadians(45.0f), 16.0f / 9.0f, 1.0f, 10000.0f); ...for a 16:9 ratio. But, what resolution would I have to set the screen to for the standard def and high def I'm assuming that it defaults to a standard def resolution but I'm not sure what or even how to go about changing it. Please help. 1280x720 and 1920x1080 are 16:9 resolutions. ...Show All
