• Visual C# Serialize object to string

  I am trying to serialize an object(s) to an XML string. I want to do this without ever actually creating an .xml file. The way I do it works, and seems to be fine. I just want to make sure that there is not something I have overlooked. If anyone has a better way of doing it I would appreciate the help.

• Visual Studio Team System Where is Source Control menu?

  Hi! Recently I've installed TFS Clinet on my machine to be able to work with TFS server remotely. When I first connected to server and open Source Control Explorer I saw that new workspace had been created. The problem is I cannot work with SCE 'cause there is no mapping with local folders. The easiest way to map local folders would be using Manage Workspace dialog but it is impossible: there is no menu File->Source Control! Here is screenshot (~60 Kb). Of course, I could use magic h.exe to do all I need, but it seems a bug and I'm going to submit it. P.S. Another annoying issue is lack of Visual Studio Command Prompt. Is t ...Show All

• Visual Basic best practices to support resolution changes?

  As a newcomer to VB, when I developed my application I didn't think ahead to what would happen when users had different screen resolutions. Obviously this was a major oversight and I'm wondering now what is considered the best way to handle the problem. I designed the application at a resolution of 1280x1024, utilizing most of the available horizontal space. I tried setting the AutoScaleMode for the form set to dpi, but this caused considerable distortion when changing to 800x600 resolution. If I don't allow the form to autoscale, then scroll bars appear when the resolution is decreased, a major nuisance for a user. So, what I'm looking for ...Show All
