• Visual Studio Express Editions how to code to make application icon goes to WINDOWS notification area when "minimize" is clicked in c#.net 2005 ?

  some programs can be moved to notification area instead of just go to taskbar when "minimize" is clicked, how to do this with c#.net2005 windows form applications plz help Take a look at what the NotifyIcon provides for you ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vboritrayiconctltasks.asp ). With a little extra logic in your forms Resize event handler, you can check the value of WindowState and hide the form when minimized and show it when it’s coming back from being hidden, all the while toggling the Visible property of the NotifyIcon. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Cannot get local version of MSDN to be called up from VS 2005

  Hello, I have recently upgraded to VS 2005 release candidate. I then installed the full 2.6GB version of MSDN locally. I need to figure out how to get the local version of MSDN to be accessed from VS 2005. I have specified "Use local first, then online" as my option for help. Whenever I double click a class name and hit F1, I expected to get the local definition of that class. Instead, it goes through the relatively long process of looking online for it. Is this a bug or a feature I reported this as a bug also. TIA for your help, Joe Barry I am having the same problems with running MSDN October 2005 he ...Show All
