Smart Device Development VS2005: Why is FormFactor visible in the property grid for a Control
Hi, Why is FormFactor visible in the property grid for a Control Is it possible to set a skin for a Control In that case, why can't I find any way to show the skin For a Form there are a Skin property as well which shows or hides the skin. Best regards, Joakim Hi… FormFactor determines among other things, the resolution of the screen, its size, orientation… If a control houses other controls and/or paints some custom stuff on itself, you want it to be right for each of the FormFactors. The designer is all about letting you rapidly develop UI that is seen when your app is running. ...Show All

Also tooltips of inline level elements are not supported. You could get the ToolTip if a FlowDocumentReader is used HTH ...Show All

Visual Studio Express Editions HtmlElement.OuterHtml.Replace() fails with COM exception

Dev env: VS 2005 C# Express, .Net Framework 2.0 I am trying to programmatically select an item in a listbox on a web page. The first thing I do is go through and de-select any selected items.

Visual FoxPro Visual Foxpro Book Recommendations?
All, Can anyone recommend a good book for learning VFP 6.0 from scratch I've looked at SPECIAL ADDITION USING VISUAL FOXPRO 6 but it's not really helping me so far. All I am trying to do is create a simple .exe that will read amd update some records from a .dbf and insert those records into a MS SQL table. All the books on Amazon have gotten terrible reviews and MSDN has little to no info on doing this. I don't need any forms or reports as the .exe I want to build would act more like a trigger than anything else. Even a simple tutorial on this would probably suffice if I ...Show All

.NET Development .net generic class or function parameters.
I don't understand why is this not possible to pass an integer parameter to a generic class or function as for c++ templates. It seems to me that it's far easier than allowing type parameter resolved at runtime. Could someone please explain me if there is some practical reason for this and if there's a workarround for doing the same as templates but at runtime with integer parameters. thanks, Aurelien. In one sense, template is not necessary for a single-rooted pure OO PL (as for Java, there is no template through Java 1.4), because you can always define everything as root object and then downcast into your ...Show All
