• Visual Studio Express Editions Opening a Help File from a C# Application

  I'm using C# Express B2, and I am very new to programming. I'm trying to have a help file (.chm) that I created open when the "Contents" option on the "Help" menu is clicked.

• Smart Device Development Emulator times out when accessing sscesa20.dll

  When I access http://server/folder/sscesa20.dll from the server and a pocket PC (wirelessly) I get "SQL Server CE Server Agent", good. However, the emulator can connect to external web sites such as msn.com, but times out when I access http://server/folder/sscesa20.dll . I suspect it is an authentication and/or network card (virtual) configuration of the emulator. Any help would be appreciated. Sorry, this forum is for the new DeviceEmulator that ships in Visual Studio 2005.  You might try posting your question to one of the eVC or VS newsgroups, depending on what product your emulator came with.

• Visual Studio Cannot navigate to the location pointed to by a task (VS2003)

  I am using VS.NET 2003. I wrote a simple macro to enumerate the functions in a project or source file and output their names to the Output window. I also used the OutputTasItemString method of the OutputWindowPane object to create Task List items for each function, so that when I would click on a function name in the Task List it would automatically jump to the right location in my code. Well, navigating to the location point to by these tasks that my macro creates does not work. I tried it both by clicking on the task item and by calling the Navigate method on the TaskListItem object directly. I also tried it both while all source files we ...Show All
