Now I want to delete some files or even the complete project from source control but when I right-click on the project in the source explorer the "Delete" menu item is grayed out. I managed to remove the entire project (WSS, reports, ...) from TFS by using the TFSDeleteproj ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Border.Measure sets DesiredHeight to zero if the Border.Height is zero?

  Does the Border.Measure() function return zero for the height if the current border height is zero, regardless of its contents It seems to, but that's surprising to me. When I call Measure() it seems to set DesiredSize.Height correctly in the normal case, but if I programmatically set the Height or MaxHeight to zero, Measure() always sets DesiredSize.Height to zero. Here's some XAML and code that demonstrates the problem:   ...Show All

In fact, they are so great that they have inspired me with the desire to write an AddIn that allows me to perform even more spacing logic that I particularly like. Is something like this sound possible You might want to try asking this question on the C# fourms as people over there might have a better idea of the formatting tools that currently exist for C#.  I'll look around an ...Show All

  I have a program running on a linux server that serves out barcodes for reports. I created a web service in c# that grabs the barcode graphic from the server and returns a base64-encoded string of the barcode image the server creates. I want to insert this graphic in the upper-right hand corner of the word document and I'm thinking the header is a good place for it, but I'd also like to consider positioning a floating image as well.
