Thank you Pete, I know Bling and love it

I was going to ask the same. That was the last post I've seen regarding this topic: http://blogs.msdn.com/sburke/archive/2007/11/20/vs2008-net-3-5-ships-sooooo-where-s-the-source.aspx[^]

I basically refactored that design to use Generics in .NET 2 platform to eliminate the use of "object" all over the design. I have found it very useful so far.

I generally dislike purchasing programming books because a) writers simply don't know how to present technical material and b) I don't like having obsolete texts on my bookshelf, but I suppose I can make an exception.. ;)

Yeah, I agree there is a bunch missing at this time, but I figure more will creep over to Silverlight over the next year or so, but I doubt they will put the entire WPF over there, Silverlight is basically for those who want to go cross platform, you can use WPF over the net now on Windows machines that have all the core loaded.

My policy these days is to avoid SPs until I absolutely need to apply one in order for something to work. However, for VS 2005 I may be a bit bolder given the sluggishness of the IDE. Plus I'm not using it much at the moment, so not much to break.:) Kevin

As far as I recall (and bear in mind that all my experience was on Microsoft OS/2 which stopped at version 1.3 or thereabouts (released in early 1991?)) there was was no concept of application level exception handlers at all. If there were I certainly didn't run across them but then again, I was writing kernel mode device drivers at the time and not doing PM programming. Mike Dimmick wrote: A major reason that Win32 ignores the segment registers is simply that no other processor architecture has them, and NT was originally designed to be portable to different architectures You make a good point and one that we're apt to forget these days. Yes there was once a time when NT would run on hardware other than x86 based, and it was planned that successor operating systems would also run on such hardware. Reading that line back it sounds sarcastic but I didn't mean it that way. The market spoke.

I would have thought that a build that new would be quite stable. I've not tried VA with VS .NET, but maybe there are issues with VA and different builds of the IDE (Microsoft making tiny changes and the poor guys at WholeTomato racing around trying to keep up to date with the all). Have you tried emailing WholeTomato software? cheers, Chris Maunder

Your mouse should work, it just doesn't support any of the nonstandard mouse functions. NetBEUI support has been dropped in favor of TCP/IP.
