  I'm creating some source code programatically using the System.CodeDom namespace. I can't however create a proper "else if" statement.

This gives me no indication of what this ItemSpec object is or does. Can someone at Microsoft please make it a priorit ...Show All

  Can I develop the DX10 and DX9.0c application use VC++ 6.0 My develop environment is VC++ 6.0 and installed VSSP 5.0. VC++ 6 hasn't been supported by the DirectX SDK for quite a while now.

You'd be better of downloading VC++ 2005 Express (which is free) a ...Show All
