• Windows Forms Opacity and Transparancy...

  Hi I'm workin on a Splash screen (Yet another one.. :) )... and the idea is as follows. 1. When starting its completly transparant.... nothing is seen on the screen.. 2. It shall fade up until completly "solid"  (sorry about the language) 3. After a period it shall fade down until inviseble and then closed. This sequence is handled by a Timer and Opacity property....

I've tried to use the "TransparencyKey" but i only works as long as I not changes the Opacity property from its default value (1 ...Show All

• SQL Server problem with Roles (Read Definition)

  Hi everybody, I have a problem: - if I assign to a role the general "Read Definition" rights (on the database), I am not able to reduce the visibility on the dimensions, since they are all with "Read Definition" rights and at least "Read" access. - on the contrary, if I dont'assign to a role the general "Read Definition" rights, and then set "Read Definition" rights on some dimensions (and the "Read" access, too), the users of this role are not allowed to connect to the OLAP database! This way, it's not possible to assign selective visibility to the dimensions, and it se ...Show All

• .NET Development How to find framework version no?

• Software Development for Windows Vista Anyone with enterprise workflow experience?

  I have spent the last several years primarily working with J2EE and IBM's mq workflow and document management products. I was brought on by my current client to consult regarding these products/technologies. However, they have spent over $100M on MS product licensing, which has led me to recently working with sharepoint and infopath out of curiosity, and I have started lookng at wwf. I have to admit, this stuff is pretty cool! Are there any other people out there with enterprise workflow experience who would be willing to share thier thoughts/ideas on wwf with me I realize it's not a stand alone server product, but does anyone have thought ...Show All
