  I am using the Managed Direct Input library to gather mouse input for a graphical research app.  However, my testing shows that the application is affected by mouse acceleration despite using the Direct Input API. My understanding was that only driver level acceleration could affect the Direct Input data, but if I test some of the samples that ship with the DirectX SDK I don't see the same problem.  T ...Show All

• SQL Server using distinct on one column only

  I have a table that contains 5 or 6 columns. (plantid, commonName, scientificName, planttype, etc) what I am wanting to do is create a table of all the plants with distinct scientificNames. but I am wanting to display the commonName, scientificName, and planttype.

  Hi! I'm currently not sure whether I should use XmlSerializer to save the properties of a class to an xml file or if should just write the file manually with XmlTextWriter.

Thus the deserialization operation should take as few time as possible, even if that means writing more ...Show All
