The problem I got is that when replacing values, all rich formatting is lost as explained here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/177194 To clarify, I replace valueX with valueY in a cell looking like this: va...
Could anyone point out the advantage of using assemblies, in the 'context' of ASP.NET. As I understand it, assemblies run as executables, have a single entry point, and can be run inside an application domain, but I've found very few suitable examples on the web. ...
Hi, I have a class library that I need to output via a JsonResult in the ASP.NET MVC framework. (JsonResult uses the JsonSerializer to produce its output.) I discovered through reading the documentation that if you put [ScriptIgnore] on a public property/field, it will not get serialized, much like [XmlIgnore] for the XML serializer. ...

My understanding of the client profile preview is that it's a stripped down version of .NET focusing on fulfiling the needs of client applications. However it would be useful to know what is included and excluded from this? Does anyone know? ...

The immediate project I'm thinking of is a simple UI, Windows Forms. It has 3 panels, one oriented at the top, one in the middle and one at the bottom. I want to be able to collapse the ...
I code GUIs in .NET frequently, and most of them only have the value of being a GUI, e.g. they don't do anything otherwise impossible. So most of the development goes to making them friendly, intuitive and eye-candy. Then it comes to my mind it would be simply amazing to skin them through .msstyles files, since there are so many places ...

Another question I have is, how hard would it be to embed a flash video into a PDF file using an API in C#? One possible ...
