• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO & MS Access

  I'm just trying to get up to speed on the new Visual Studio 2005 and the new Tools for Office.  We do a lot of work with MS Access (and Excel) and what I find odd is that in all the articles I've read there is not mention of MS Access w.r.t. the VSTO.  Do the VSTO not work with MS Access   What am I supposed to use if I am doing development with Access 2003 Can someone please clarify how VSTO works with MS Access   We've already been burned by buying Visual Studio 2003 "Special Edition".  It includes the Office Tools that I believe work with Excel and Word.  Too bad we bought the upgrade to work with Access 200 ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Is there a simple way to flip a Sprite?

  It's been a while since I've posted here (last question I asked was about scrolling a 2D background) and now I'm back with another 2D question. Is there a simple way to flip a sprite horizontally and vertically I started to just make new textures for each of the positions, but then I thought somebody has to know how to do this the right way for 2D games. From what I'm gathering, typically you do some kind of World transformations to flip your game objects around when you normally develop for DirectX (and by normal I mean 3D development), but with the 2D development route I've been going, I've been trying to leave out things like Wor ...Show All
