Speaking of UI delays. On my portable and Visual Studio 2003 it take ages to switch to Design View for a form with some Tab Controls. :)

Haven't you heard about White Christmas? :) The temperature in Sweden is, sadly, about 0 C. I want -5 C and at least 40cm of snow.

I have an C++ application in Visual Studio.net (2002). This application uses an external DLL (with templates) made by .net. However, I also wants to use my own old DLLs made by VC6. Then I get a linker error. I found out that this error id due to name mangling for exported template instantiations. No problems if I recompile my DLLs with .net. However these new DLLs does not work with my old applications using these DLLs. My question is if there is another solution than having two source codes identical DLLs, one compiled with VC6 and the other compiled with .net?

I do not recomend MCAD/MCSD Self-Paced Training Kit: Developing Web Applications with Microsoft® Visual Basic® .NET and Microsoft Visual C#™ .NET http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/5773.asp[^]. Poor and buggy examples.

-17c is a bit cold. But I love snow and it is barely two weeks until Vasaloppet, 90km of skiing. First time but hopefully not the last!

There is a VS.NET issues forum on CP Yes, I know. But I was only complaning and not seaching for a solution. The Lounge is the appropriate forum for complaints, isn´t it? :)

Thanx, but it still changes ä to ä.

I am really disapponted with Visual Studio.net when trying to develop pure HTML. Found a lot of minor flaws and a major one. When I change anything in Design view it does a lot of changes in my code. For instance, it changes every instance of ä to ä. It doesn´t matter for a Windows user but it does for a Mac user. I have used JDeveloper in jsp, and the IDE tells you where you have errors in the HTML-code, but it doesn´t change anything. If the next C++ compiler will do the same, ie automatically change my source code, then bye Microsoft!

It is Swedish: It is the simple that is the difficult. The pure ... At the end there is a comment of all these "cheap" flash-programs...

An Andersson (note double s i Andersson) to an Andersson and a swede to a swede, yes Java is as stable as MS C++ and it is good to learn. However, it is slow. Swing is nice but even slower. You can find a lot of Java IDEs, some nice and some slow memoryhogs. However, I had to admit that I am really disappointed on Microsoft VC 6. A quite a lot of annoying bugs not fixed in any of all service packs.

Have you tried PhotoMesa? Yes, I know its written in Java, but still it is quite an amazing program IMHO. http://www.cs.umd.edu/hcil/photomesa/[^]

The BROWEINFO struct has a member lpfn where you define a Callback function. The Callback could the lokk like: switch(uMsg) { case BFFM_INITIALIZED: { if(!m_biark.IsEmpty()){ ::SendMessage(hwnd,BFFM_SETSELECTION,TRUE,(DWORD) ((LPCTSTR)m_biark)); } break; } default: break; }

Yes! Yes!:)

My collegue installed this patch after lunch and after that CPrintDialog returns the handle m_pd.hDC as NULL. So dare I install this patch??

You can set the default direcory in a Callback function. bi.lpfn=CArkivData::CallBack; il=SHBrowseForFolder( &bi); ... int CArkivData::CallBack(HWND hwnd, UINT uMsg, LPARAM lp, LPARAM pData) { switch(uMsg) { case BFFM_INITIALIZED: { ::SendMessage(hwnd,BFFM_SETSELECTION,...

This Olympics has been the worst ever for us, ie Sweden. The media were already discussing the semifinal, and cound not even dream of loosing against Belarus.:confused:

Yes, but be aware of that several user have reported problems with CRecordset and the ODBC-driver.

OK, I signed up today but have been invisible CP usage for more than a year. And I don't think I am the only one beeing invisible.
