The Sandcastle project, Microsoft's tools to generate documentation from your well-documented code, is now available on CodePlex. That was already the case, but until about 2 month's ago, that was without the source code. You can now download...
Because I blog about Crystal Reports occasionally, and created a helper class to assist in integrating it into .Net applications, I get a lot of questions from people that have problems running their reports. Especially in production environments after...
Just as a small update on the use of StyleCop . I disagreed with some of the rules, like having to use spaces rather than tabs. It's not really an annoying rule, the only thing about it is that you have to agree on using spaces or tabs and then stick...
Or to be more specific, by Microsoft StyleCop . Now this may not be new to you, and that's very likely since StyleCop was announced in May of this year, but it was new to me. The tool checks your code for coding style and more specific, the Microsoft...

In my current project, we calculate the status of tasks that a user needs to do and store the status in a table. This happens on a daily basis. Once every week, we calculate which items are overdue and inform the user by email to take appropriate action...
No matter what people say, managed code applications can (and will) leak memory. I bumped into a blog post on MSDN today which describes how memory leaks in WPF applications can be avoided and found should they occur. From the blog post: In this blog...
Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion. The author of this article certainly has an opinion about a number of Microsoft products. There are even some products I had never heard of before. The list contains the following Microsoft products: Actimates...
I guess most of us are really happy with the release of Visual Studio 2008. I know I am, although I realise that I won't be able to use it professionally. I have only recently been able to convince my current projectowner to upgrade our suite of applications...
