Has the $format parameter been removed with the VS2008 SP1 release of ADO.NET Data Services. I try to use it and I get the error: The query parameter '$format' begins with a system-reserved '$' character but is not recognized. I think the support for the Atom stuff is very cool, but can you get "plain old xml" too? ...

I want to write a business object layer in a way that makes each entity object responsible for saving its own changes. I thought it would be a good way to have each entity posses its own ObjectContext, attach itself to that ObjectContext and perform the transaction whenever it needs to be saved.

Surprisingly I was only able to find one previous question on SO about this subject, and I'd just like to get the community "Vote of Confidence" (or not!) on my approach. The way I see it is thus: use Debug.Assert to state things you EXPECT would be true. This would be used when we are in complete control over our environment, for ex...

I have a databound TextBlock control (which is being used inside a DataTemplate to display items in a ListBox) and I want to make all the text in the control bold.

I have a button which I wanted to "flash" briefly to get the user's attention. I figured the easiest way would be to change the Button's BackColor property to another color, and then switch it back again. So I do something like this: this.oldColor = myButton.BackColor; myButton.BackColor = Color.Blue; and then after a about 1/2 a seco...

The window I have created looks like this: The question I have is why the DataTemplate in the ComboBox is blurrier or slightly more pixellated than the display in the ListBox.

These keys have a specific format, e.g. string key = "ABC123"; Currently, all these keys are stored as strings, but I'd like to make things more robust and type-safe.
