C# - Find Detailed Documentation For .Net?
Nov 20, 2009
Here's an example of a wasted day:
(1) I want to find out exactly what Binding.FormattingEnabled does.
(2) I type MSDN Binding.FormattingEnabled into google and go to the page.
(3) I read the 3, 'helpful', line description.
(4) I check out the bottom of the page for references.
(5) Never mind, non of those helped....
(6) I search google and find nobody seems to know what the property does in its entirety.
(7) I open up reflector and spend hours in a tangled web before being 70% sure I know what's going on.
(8) I carry on coding, but the 30% is niggling at me.
(9) Repeat 6 - 8 ad nauseum ...
There must be a better way!
I'm using VS.Net 2008 Express edition, btw.
ETA: The FormattingEnabled property was just an example, this is more of a general question. Using reflector, I'm about 94.314% sure of how it works..

I have been writing VBA code for MS Access for years, but am starting my first project that will need to retrieve data from the Internet. I have come across code samples that use "Microsoft Internet Controls" and "Microsoft HTML Object Library", and I can make them available references in VBA, and available methods and fields etc. show when writing code, but I cannot find any documentation for these APIs. Does it come with MS Office on the CDs (if so, where?), or is it available over the Internet somewhere?

Good, detailed resources or books for best-practices on exception handling? I am looking to dive into a much deeper understanding of it, and am finding it hard. All the books I see over .NET, ASP.NET, etc. place little emphasis or detail on exception handling.
I am currently testing out a 3-tier ASP.NET application, with a presentation layer, business logic layer, and data layer, and want to know more about exactly when to throw errors, when to catch them, what layer to do them in, etc.
I don't want a simple google search on ".NET exception handling" and then having you post the first couple of links. I would like you to respond if you have quality, known resources that you have used or have found.

I have not asked any questions in a long time because I have not been programming. But I am now back again with a question about Graphics.I want to make an object of a detailed checker. What I mean by detailed is there is going to be a big ellipse, then it is going to have a hole bunch of ellipses going around the edge to give it the checker affect.
How do I bind it all or make it all into one object and do something like a button has when clicked (Handles Button.Click) but with this object so I can move it.Is it possible to do this? If so can someone tell me how?
PS. This is my first time dealing with Graphics, so go easy on me ;)

making a very simple detailed listview visually, not programatically. I have now added a listview to the form and added the columns I need. But how do I add rows to the list? When I add items to the list it seems to just add some sort of category or something. So can anybody tell me how to make a simple detailed list or show me a tutorial on how to do it?

connect to 2 separate databases that control a system of logging in/out and the other a database of items. Think of it like logging in to ebay and searching for items. The only problem is that the x64 computers that will be used to run the final solution dont allow for MS Access databases or SQL databases to work for whatever reason.What other options do we have in order to have an effective system? A series of generated text files with the input registration details is so far the

I have written a program that queries an sql database displays it in a detailed listview, no problems so far. The only problem I am running in to is when I got to print the listview. When I do a regular printdocument.print() It prints out the listview exactly how I have it set up to do so. Which is a title , then column headers, next comes the listview, and then a total of some the columns. When I do a printpreview everything looks great. When I click the print button within the printpreviewdialog only the Title, Column headers, and the totals print. [code]

I tried out the tutorial on [URL].. that shows how to do a simple report with the Microsoft Report Viewer control. I really like this control.I wish to further my skills on this nice tool but can't find any step by step tutorials on creating many different types of reports even if I do a Google search. I'm hoping to find tutorials on reports such as group break reports, sub-total reports, charts in the reports, drill down reports etc.
Does anyone know where I can find these? If they don't exist yet, would you create them so the community will benefit?

I am having issues finding resources detailing building Speech Recognition grammars using VB.NET, Speech.Recognition.GrammarBuilder, and .NET 4.0. I have found a few examples on the Internet, but they seem to just go over the basics. Does anybody know where I can find a good source on detailed information, as well as Speech development in general. I mostly see links to class definitions, but no explanations and discussions.

I have written up troubleshooting documents for my project and would like them included in my program. I remember in VB6 there was a very easy way to do this with a control, where it already has the help document tree set up on the left and you just set it to point to certain files.
Does something like this exist for .NET? I am aware of the HelpProvider control but as far as I know this just puts in tooltips and opens documents on a button press?

The regularity and frequency of that extolling is an indication of how many people, for whatever reason, don't use the documentation. Some say that I've forgotten what it's like to be a beginner, but I remember using the MSDN documentation as a beginner. I remember that I couldn't always find what I needed and I also remember that I didn't always understand what I found. More importantly, I remember that that didn't stop me using it first every time I had an issue and I also remember getting better at using it over time. So, I'm genuinely interested to know, if you don't use the MSDN documentation?

I am simply searching how to obtain errors/warning for each function/member that isnt documented. Im pretty sure I managed to do this on one of my projects, but cant find how to do it here on my workstation. I have looked into the project props, the solution props, but cant find it. I must have missed something, or maybe I could do this at home with an extension.

I was wondering what options i have in order for me to create documentation for the applications i write? i.e. Some documentation for code written and some general comments on what the application is doing etc?
After a quick search i noticed a few options but most seem to be using VS 2003 (prefer something for 2010)

One of the Projects in my VB.NET Solution seemed unwilling to let me write XML Documentation in my code. When tapping ''' on the line directly above a method declaration, nothing would happen. The project consisted of modules and classes only(no forms), so I initially thought that had something to do with it.
Later I found that under project properties and the Compile tab, the "Generate XML documentation file" checkbox was left unchecked. Checking this instantly allowed me to place the comments normally. After doing some testing, I also found that Creating an Empty project leaves the checkbox unchecked, while creating a Windows Application automatically checks it.

how to call or reference an item from an xml document. I hava a java app that i'm converting over to vb.net. The java application uses the digester class to to parse the information. The app uses 2 classes and the xml file. one class is the Vb.net Parameter class (fully converted from Java to vb.net) that pulls the information out of the xml document and then places it when called into the 2nd class file.
I'm pretty sure that i need to use the system.xml class to do this however i'm having or just not reading the examples properly.
I have partially converted the code over to vb.net, it still has some java references.
