Ive been worling on this class for a while, and while its not finished it works pretty good and should be a great starting point for anyone looking to build d3d apps. Class Code: Imports System Imports Microsoft.DirectX Imports Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D Imports...

I think that what you really want to do is have your SQLGuardian.exe application run as a service. That way you will not need to be logged in, as PD said, you should write the windows service to _do_ all the work, and write a winforms application to communicate with the service and tell it what...

Where does your picture come from? Is it static? (exists as a file somewhere) or is it dynamic? (is generated on the fly) If it is static, you should be able to load in a few rectangle objects behind the words in the picture and set the tooltip on the rectangle object.

Couldnt you use multiple rectangles per word? Or is the image generated dynamically?

This code If TextBox1.InvokeRequired Then Dim LogsafeSub As New tbCall(AddressOf processRP1) TextBox1.Invoke(LogsafeSub, TextBox1) Else Is making the sub processRP1 execute on the same thread that TextBox1 was created (the UI thread).

Once you detect a collision you must then set the position of the moving object exactly next to the stationary object.

Adding a column and data to a gridview should be easiy; the question is do you require updating the database schema as well?

So I have a Linq2SQL type that is the return type for a method. This works fine; except the lazy loading is causing me issues since Im returning the method via WCF. I have been able to use DataLoadOptions to get the related data I need; however it generates some HORRIBLY inefficent SQL...

Can you post the code that you have? I hope you arent using a table for layout and this is some TABular data that you are using. Im not sure what an aspx table is; a normal table tag, with a runat="server"? You may want to try something like this: <table id="myTable"> ... </table>...

Ive used this as a starting point to understand how to process pop3 data. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/despop3client.aspx You should be able to use that as a launching point.

Can you post a screen shot of the text you are talking about? Most of the configurable text is available in the Install Wizard Pages (form Setup/Deployment Project). The Title is the name of your solution, IIRC. In terms of the Window Title, that displays at the top and in the task bar, I...

Id say KIS and use StringBuilder if all you need is simple text replacement; however, if you need to produce standards complient output; the XmlDocument may be a good option. I dont know if this would apply in your situation, but would an approach like this help you...

As PD mentioned, MEF is developed by Microsoft, and open-sourced on codeplex. I have not used it; but everything Ive heard about it is good. IIRC the Visual Studio team is using MEF as part of VS2010. (dont quote me on that though). Scott Hanselman has a podcast with one of the developers of...

I ended up setting up IIS Smtp Relay service inbetween. So now my application talks to IIS, which in turn talks to the mail server. Its not pretty, but it works for me.

This method uses alot of unmanaged code, but will probably be very fast: http://www.developerfusion.com/code/4630/capture-a-screen-shot/ This code will get the image into a BitmatpSource (for use with WPF .Net 3.0/5) Bitmap bmpScreenshot; Graphics gfxScreenshot...
