by Beth Massi via MSDN: Visual Basic on 6/29/2007 10:26:16 PM

This how-to video series is focused on the Interop Forms Toolkit and working with Visual Basic .NET and Visual Basic 6 together. The Interop Forms Toolkit allows Visual Basic developers to migrate their Visual Basic 6 applications over to .NET using a phased migration strategy. Instead of having to convert the entire VB6 application at once, the toolkit enables.NET Forms and User Controls to run directly in Visual Basic 6 applications so that you can build the pieces that you need over time.

Sleepless from Bulgaria: an intern's first weeks in the VB team

by VBTeam via The Visual Basic Team on 6/29/2007 9:47:00 PM

I started as an intern at Microsoft two weeks ago, and I thought it might be nice to share my experience with you. Not just because I love blogging, but also because I think that there are so many great things that happen here that are worth mentioning. I will try to post weekly, keeping you up to date with my thoughts on Microsoft, the VB team, my project, Seattle and the area, fun stuff that happened here, etc. But first things first, so: Who am I? My name is Slavi, I ... [ read more ] 9 comment(s)

define:mortmain

by Paul Vick via Paul Vick - Panopticon Central on 6/29/2007 6:03:00 PM

In a context completely unrelated to computers or my work, someone gave me a copy of one of those "word a day" calendar entries for the word "mortmain". You can see the fuller definition here , but one definition is: The oppressive influence of past events or decisions. Only after I tacked it up in my office did people start pointing out to me the irony .

Hiding a TabPage (2) - User's Selection

by Ged Mead via XTab (Ged Mead) on 6/29/2007 8:33:00 AM

In the previous part I looked at a very simple scenario where the developer knew in advance which TabPage should be hidden and re-shown. Next we'll look at doing the same thing, except that this time the user gets to choose which TabPage is hidden. As in the previous example, you're going to need some kind of trigger to kickstart the Hide or Show activity. I've used a button placed outside the TabControl on the form itself, but you could use any other trigger that suits your purpose - e.g. ... [ read more ]

.NET 3.0 does NOT change .NET 2.0 libraries.

by bill via @ Head - Bill McCarthy - VB on 6/29/2007 3:04:05 AM

Recently a fellow MVP pointed out the addition of the TransferRequest method to the HttpServerUtility class. The documentation falsely states it as being .NET 3.0 when in fact the change is made in .NET 3.5 Beta. You'd think stating the file versions would be enough to clear up the matter, which is what I did. I looked in some Virtual PCs to see what file version there were for System.Web, and determined that the change that includes TransferRequest was the 3.5 version.&nbs ... [ read more ] 3 comment(s)
