• Iko OnInitDialog/OnSetActive call sequence appears to have changed

  It appears that with MFC 8/VS2005 the call sequence for activating a property sheet and its corresponding pages has changed. We are seeing the following: OnInitDialog() fires for the first property page (the one all the way to the left). OnSetActive() fires for the first property page.

• _keith Copy Files (and use them) on Smartphone Emulator

  It seems as though I can create a share on my dev machine and the Smartphone Emulator accepts them via File - Configure - General - Shared folder (although there's no way of telling). However, because the Smartphone emulator does not have a built-in File Manager there is no way to copy around the files on the device (emulator).

• jeanlucve How do I bind two DataGrids in a master-detail relationship?

  for Compact Framework 1.0 If by Master-Detail you mean two related tables in the DataSet, you can do it by handing CurrentCellChanged event on a master table's DataGrid.
