I have a class with an overloaded method: MyClass.DoThis(Action<Foo> action); MyClass.DoThis(Action<Bar> action); I want to pass a lambda expression to the Action version: MyClass.DoThis( foo => foo.DoSomething() ); Unfortunately, Visual Studio rightly cannot tell the difference between the Action<Foo> and Action<Bar> versions, due...

Does anyone know of a library (paid or not) out there that is able to handle more common datetime formats than DateTime.Parse uses? Something that can handle multiple languages and abbreviations for days/months would be really nice. For example: "Sept 1, 2009" does not work with Datetime.Parse. ...

I have an example that I can get to break every time I use an iterator, but it works fine with a for loop. All code uses variables local to the executing method. I am stumped.

The files are kept on a folder that we use as a reposit...

I know there are a lot of questions on how to write data from a dataset or datatable to excel, but they all seem to assume a new blank excel workbook.

Are there any built it options for arrays supporting more than 2^31 keys. This would make keys of type System.Int64 rather than System.Int. While 2^31 is a fair amount, there are a growing number of of applications where more keys would help. For instance, there are over 3 billion base pairs in the human genome. Any easy options? ...
