• Ganeshkumar S JPEG Keyword information

  Hello everybody, I was looking into Digital Image Suite 2006 and noticed that even when you copy JPEG files within Windows Explorer, Digital Image will remember whether your keyword "Paris" was referring to a person or a place.

A very easy way to see this happen is open two instances of Word, close the first instance of Word, then close the document (but not Word itself) of the second instance. The menu objects will now fault if you access the enabled property and they will no lo ...Show All

• Niall Gordon Document Explorer not finding local docs any longer

  The Document Explorer (accessed directly or from the VS IDE Help menu) was working fine for a couple of weeks.

• PhilSmith Just Completed a Conversion From an Imake-based Build System Over to MSBuild

  Some stats up front, the old system was comprised of 37 Imakefiles with 2333 lines altogether.  The msbuild system has roughly the same number of MSBuild project files (.csproj and a single .targets) with a total of 2022 lines.  The cool thing is that even though none of these are C# projects I can use a .csproj file and trick VS 2005 into building the MSBuild projects for me.  WRT build times, MSBuild appears to be a bit slo ...Show All
