• Software Development for Windows Vista 2003 Certificate Authority - Custom Policy module

• Smart Device Development vibrate.h missing for WM5 PocketPC

  Hi everyone! I cannot find vibrate.h in the WM5 PocketPC SDK. According to the documentation vibrations are supported on PPC now. Can I just copy vibrate.h from WM5 Smartphone SDK Thanks. I don't think you will be able to solve the problem by copying the file to include directory. However it looks to me it is a bug that vibrate.h is missing. I shall investigate further and will let you know this. Meanwhile, please confirm if the following link you are referring to for vibrations: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/mobilesdk5/html/mob5lrfVibrate.asp ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions New to C

  Hello. I was interested in programming in C and of course I bought a book. However the book is a little outdated, so they describe how to use the tools such as the compiler, etc. They teach you how to compile and link everything with Borland and Microsoft Visual C++. This book is C For Dummies, printed in '96. I downloaded Visual C++ and it has WAY more features than the one in the book has. I'm lost. Starting out he teaches you to do the usual "Hello world!" script, I started a new project, created a C file, typed in the code, saved it and... How do I compile I tried the Visual Studio command prompt, placed the C file where they told me ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Which version for Business Analysts and Project Managers?

  I'm leading an effort at my company to review VSTS to determine if it is a right fit. We are using the Beta 3 evaluation and so far it is a great product. The thing I can not figure out is which version do people in the role of Business Analysts and Project Managers use Their main usage would be to interact with reports and work items. Any suggestions The best fit for them is probably to use no version of VSTS. Rather, they would typically use Office 2003 (Excel and Project) and the Team Client - which is nothing more than Visual Studio with all the compilers and project types removed. Individual team c ...Show All

• Visual C# Printing A Windows Form

  I've done a bit of research and it looks like there is no real easy way to print a windows form. What I'm after if the ability to print my form, which contains only labels and one image. The main technique seems to be redrawing all of these controls to a graphic object, then sending that object to the print dialog. My question was, is there an easier way to print just a windows forms with labels, that has no buttons, or textboxes, etc on it Are there any free or relatively cheap components that can make this easier I've looked at the PrintForm for $299 but was hoping for a cheaper or easier way of doing this. Is there something new ...Show All
