• Windows Forms DataGridView: How to remove focus from read-only cells?

  Hi, In my three-column DataGridView I set the first two columns to be read-only, only the last column is editable. I also set CellSelect as SelectionMode to enable the user to select any particular cell in the third column. This did not prevent the first and second column's cells from being selectable in the UI, so I execute ClearSelection() whenever a cell from those columns is selected. However, what remains now is a slight rectangle aro ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF XCOPY deployment?

  Is it possible to deploy the assemblies for WCF (ServiceModel, etc) to a server using XCOPY deployment I'd prefer not to run the full WinFX installation on our servers if possible - it is far easier to move to a beta if the exposure to bugs is limited to a single app domain. dneigler wrote: Is it possible to deploy the assemblies for WCF (ServiceModel, etc) to a server using XCOPY deployment I'd prefer ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Getting Vista File Open dialog with .NET application

  Our application is written in C# 2.0 and using standard file open/save dialogs. In XP, these are pretty basic dialogs, but on Vista they remain the xp-style dialogs and not the Vista-specific open dialog. I've noticed with MFC based applications, if you use the common dialog you can get the Vista specific open dialog when running the same app on Vista. Any idea how we can get the OS-specific open dialog in C# ... if not possible withou ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Synchronization of PIM databases on IPAQ filestore so data not lost.. I can't turn it off!

  I recently was cleaning out my IPAQ files to salvage memory. A choice appeared to save / synchronize my PIM data bases with the IPAQ filestore so it wouldn't be lost with hard reset. It seemed like a good idea. However, it synchronizes with each soft reset and takes 2-3 minutes. The ActiveSync sees the files as all new so a huge synchronization takes place with my desktop PC. How can I turn this off I can't find where the option is located. It m ...Show All
