It does this but still is able to proccess an onclick event and send the keystroke over to the control that has focus. I'm needing to do som ...Show All

• Windows Forms Custom collection inside inherited control NOT removed when control removed

  Hello All, We have a custom ComboBox which inherits ComboBox and extends it. Within the custom ComboBox there is a custom collection. Everything works as expected except for one thing.

• Visual Studio Team System VSTSIntro.ppt - Web access work items

  Slide 36 of VSTSIntro.ppt states that there will be web access to work items. You might want to remove this if this is now not the case. http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/7/3/073F2E33-6226-4431-AABC-EAFC69ED931B/VSTSIntro.ppt I argue that future versions of VSTS will require the implementation of a web client.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is Visual Basic 2005 Express interpreted or compiled?

  I have looked through a lot of literature, but it seems difficult to find a clear answer to this question. I can see that VB generates P-code, which is interpreted and therefore executes much slower than compiled languages, but some literature indicate that it may be possible to compile the P-code and generate a fast executing program. C is a terrible language so I am looking for a good, strong alternative, but in practice it seems that th ...Show All
