If the mouse pointer registers over a file with an unregistered file type, then a hint box appears indicating the file type (e.g. ".slg file"). You the ...Show All

  Please help! This is probably the weirdest issue I've ever encountered. I'm trying, in C#, to binary serialize an array of strings that come from a SQL Server 2000 database.  Problem is, this takes orders of magnitude longer than if the strings don't come from the database. The EXACT same 35000-length array of strings takes 0.1 seconds to serialize if the strings don't come from the database, and 40(!) seconds to serialize if they do. So ...Show All
