• Visual C# Updating and retreiving entries from event log!

• Software Development for Windows Vista Workflow Persistence & Event Arguments

  I'm developing a State Machine workflow that passes parameters through events. The Workflow will have to persist its state in a SQL database. My understanding is that the persistence services will persist the current state of the Workflow (e.g. which state the Workflow is in). The workflow is rather useless without also persisting the parameters passed in the event arguments. Will the Workflow Persistence Services automatically persist the values passed in the event arguments or will I have to manually persist these parameters in the database Thank you in advance, -- Sean The parameters that you passed in ...Show All

• Windows Forms Determine mouse XY coordinates for double-click

  The DoubleClick event for a DataGrid is just using the basic EventArgs and not MouseEventArgs. That makes it kinda difficult to determine <em>where</em> it happened since you don't have the coordinates to perform a HitTest check.

• Visual C# Localization

  Hi, I have a Windows C# app developed using VS2003 and I need to localize it into German and French. (I did not create the project) I have come across a few problems and I would really appreciate any help. 1. The project is made up of Forms and Panels. I notice that if I click on a panel dialog and view its properties then I get no option to set the localization to true or to change the language for it. How can I localize a Panel, I need to do this because the Panel hosts buttons, Labels and Text boxes. 2. Also I need to localize some of the strings in code. All the examples I have seen have walked me through the steps where I create 3 ...Show All

Thanks. define a integer variable =0 as a flag, once the thread start, set the fla ...Show All
