I have noticed that the Windows Vista/7 dialogs look MUCH better than just a MessageBox. How can I use them with a P/Invoke? ...

I can do part of this on the command line: VB6.EXE /m Project.VBP /d BUILD_OTHER_APP=1 but the executable still has the name "Project.exe". If I rename...
I have been developing a toy editor, and I want my editor to look like the VS2010 text editor which can be dragged out of the main window to become a independent window and the dragged-out window can be maximized when it's dragged to the top of the screen, and can be docked by being dragged to the left or right side of the screen(which i...
Our program requires the user to hold the Alt+Shift keys together in order to carry out some operations. The problem is that Windows uses this combination to switch locale on some setups. Anyone got any ideas as to how we can "override" this behaviour of Windows whilst our program is running? Can we do some sort of message intervention? ...

Hi there. I've been looking for any solution to draw rubber bands and cursors via OpenGL without redrawing whole window in Windows Vista/7, but can't find anything suitable. Overlay plane approach doesn't seem to be supported widely on all videocards, especially when it comes to dual screen rendering. I found a solution that suggests ma...
I use Visual Studio 2008 on Windows 7. Occasionally (more than once a day), when I launch the debugger via F5 to debug an ASP.NET website a blank Internet Explorer window opens and it hangs. I can stop the debugger, but the IE window doesn't go away. When I try to debug again, a new IE window opens and I can debug in that window just fi...

When I copy a database from one server to another via backup and restore, I find I have to recreate the users in the database. I can't login as them right after the copy - I get cannot open default database, when the database that was just copied is the default database. Why is this?

On linux, we have LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables in order for programs to search for libraries. Do we have similar thing on windows? Particularly Windows 7? Also, I would like to know best practices for DLL use (where to put them, use envs or not, etc.), since I want to work on windows like everyone does, and no...
Windows 7 is caching some of the COM class information. Older OSs didn't do this. After the OS looks up the HKCU\Software\Classes\CLSID{GUID}\LocalServer32 value, it caches the value, and doesn't look it up again. When we update our software, we place the new updates in a different directory, and then update the HKCU\Software\Classes\CL...

I don't see the point, there are usually tons of folders here so it is hard to find internet shortcuts, and why would I want to open a program from IE? I don't like to IE but Firefox usually freezes up on Win7 after 15 minutes...so I am using IE8 mo...
