Hello, Does anybody know how to customize the Windows Jump-List feature related to my own application in C#? I know it can be done, but I cannot find anything C#/Windows7 related on MSDN yet. The only info related to W7 and C# I can find so far is just compatibility junk which I've already read. Thanks all Baeltazor ...

I've just encountered a rather strange problem. A Winforms (although that may not be relevant) app that I've been working on for a few months just started behaving oddly. Pressing F5 to debug in VS2008 gets it running perfectly but if I try to run the exe from the bin\Debug folder it fails straight away. Viewing more details from the not...

How do you work? More specifically, how do you keep your programming tasks organized. When I do Mac development at home I use software called an outliner to organize, keep notes and prioritize the tasks I need to do. I started out using a program called Deep Notes which is a nice simple free tool. But now I use The Hit List. I’ve be...
On a Windows server, we have a task which runs occasionally, using "Scheduled Tasks" to control it. (best not to run it directly, since it might need to be run as a particular user, and the Scheduled Task configuration has all the appropriate passwords). We'd like to control this via a PHP script, so that visitors to a website can requ...

So, I am writing an .net windows program using visual studio 2008 to read the files, generate random password for each contact, and then push these information in to my SQL Server database. It was easy to handle excel...
I am looking at ways of limiting data (pages) visible to users based on their SharePoint group memberships. One option is to run my site on it's own, determine group membership in code, and limit data available, and the other, less attractive option is to deploy my site to several departmental sites, and then determine which data to pre...
Is there a way that I manually have a user look up the current Codepage and locale of their windows OS? Is there a registry setting that stores that information? It would also be useful if the technique worked all the way back to Windows 2000. ...

While I have played with parts of Qt in the past I am thinking of putting some real effort into learning it but also wondering what the potential monetary payback might be down the road. So I have some general questions about Qt's future. What is Qt's place in the job market? Are there many, or do you sense a growing number of install...
I just noticed something strange on my WinXP SP3 PC: When I change the sytemdate from 2 November (W.Europe Standard Time) to 2 August (W.Europe Daylight Time), Windows Explorer shows a different time in the DateModified field of all the folders and files. For example: I saved a file today and the value of DateModified is '02-11-2009 18:...
A very similar question has also been asked here on SO in case you are interested, but as we will see the accepted answer of that question is not always the case (and it's never the case for my application use-pattern).

I have this odd problem with a third party script. On our site a popup window loads a demo of one of our applications when a link is clicked. The third party script is supposed to popup an additional window underneath at the same time or sometime thereafter. (Yeah this sounds crazy but the popups must load in this way.) Of course this ...
