...DeVeDe, it was simple to use and got the job done for me.

Does it (still) need Imgburn ?  :tellme:

Install imgburn and it will use this instead for creating the iso which should fix some problems people are having (including me).

Living Room / Re: Browser Wars: Why did you choose yours?
« Last post by Curt on March 05, 2010, 11:31 AM »
I use Firefox more than any other browser, because it offers me the addons I want. It is by far not the fastest or most reliable one, but when all goes well it is the most convenient browser to use.

I find any discussion about who came first with what, to be of very little interest, if any.

Living Room / Re: What books are you reading?
« Last post by Curt on March 02, 2010, 05:42 PM »
The two last books I've read were:
The Noticer, by Andy Andrews, http://www.andyandre...product/the-noticer/  
The Shack, by William P Young, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shack


"Finally, a guy meets God!" To me, a non-atheist, The Shack was mindblowing. It is like realizing yet another dimension. It is well written, and it is so full of understanding on the highest level, that I have had a hard time understanding it was 'merely' written by a human. It is out of this world.


An exceptional piece of writing that ushers you directly into the heart and nature of God in the midst of agonizing human suffering. This amazing story will challenge you to consider the person and the plan of God in more expansive terms than you may have ever dreamed.

David Gregory, author of Dinner with a Perfect Stranger
-about 'The Shack'

The Shack is also offered as an Audio♩♪♫♬Book
http://theshackbook.com/

The_SHACK_-_William_P_Young.jpg


-------
The Noticer is a fantastic clever book. It doesn't reveal a new dimension but it takes away the veil that may be covering what is already in front of you. "Sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective".

It comes in all sorts of formats, printed and electronic. I am attaching a large print sample pdf version:
 



The book has been followed by a large scale project: http://www.thenoticerproject.com/

did you find something to auto-size explorer with the addon tab utility?

No, I didn't, but I haven't really tried to. I *imagine* that the reason my Explorer always will open with 'wrong' size is that some time ago I right-clicked AnVir Task Manager Pro's title bar's "Resize > 800x570", in a Explorer window, and now I am apparently stucked with this size.

With a Explorer window open, behind PromptPal, command prompting C:\Users\Curt\Downloads\RunAndPlace\rw.exe 85 87 [classCabinetWClass] was "not found" by rw.

But thinking about it, I am not sure if an AHK solution is what I would want. I mean, it would always take me to first press a hotkey, before going into action, wouldn't it? I really want something to get&forget.

Sorry I polluted your thread.

If you want something to automatically resize explorer when it comes up let me know.

Actually, this is my request, if possible. I use Quizo QT Tabbar, so I never have more than one Explorer window. The first time I open Explorer, I almost always would like it to be 870x670 pixels (85% x 87.25% of a 1024x768). If I open more than the eight starting folders (tabs) Explorer will merely start a new row of tabs, not open more windows or resize the window. But as I said, so far this window always has the wrong size.

Can such a thing "easily" be changed into making my Explorer window always open with the size 85% x 87.25%, or do I need something entirely different ? I think I probably have too many 'add-ons' and things; my Vista Explorer simply refuses to remember any other size than the wrong one!

Hi

I am also looking for a solution that would bith work in 32bit and 64bit modes under Windows 7, which means that it would show up properly under both 32 and 64 bit applications file dialogs.

Any suggestions?


Compatibility: PikySuite products are add-ons to Windows Explorer. They also work inside other popular file managers such as Total Commander, Directory Opus (dopus), xplorer2, RecentX, XYPlorer and ExplorerXP.  

OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 (32 & 64 bit)

PikyFolders (is a part of PikySuite and) lets you jump to your favorite folders from within Windows file open/save window. We cannot see you using those clumsy  file open/save window &  folders dialog without PikyFolders.

Developer's Corner / .NET Framework 4 RC
« Last post by Curt on February 12, 2010, 02:37 AM »
.NET Framework 4 RC

Beta test the new Microsoft .Net Framework:
http://majorgeeks.co...work_4_RC_d5973.html


The Microsoft .NET Framework 4 provides the following new features and improvements:

- The .NET Framework 4 works side by side with the Framework version 3.5 SP1. Applications that are based on earlier versions of the Framework will continue to run on that version. Just a subset of functionality is shared by all versions of the Framework.
Innovations in the Visual Basic and C# languages, for example statement lambdas, implicit line continuations, dynamic dispatch, and named/optional parameters.

- The ADO.NET Entity Framework, which simplifies how developers program against relational databases by raising the level of abstraction, has many new features. These includes persistence ignorance and POCO support, lazy loading, test-driven development support, functions in model, and new LINQ operators.

- Enhancements to ASP.NET:
New JavaScript UI Templates and databinding capabilities for AJAX.
New ASP.NET chart control.

- Improvements in WPF:
Added support in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) for Windows 7 multi-touch, ribbon controls, and taskbar extensibility features.
Added support in WPF for Surface 2.0 SDK.

New line-of-business controls including charting control, smart edit, data grid, and others that improve the experience for developers who build data centric applications.
Improvements in performance and scalability.
Visual improvements in text clarity, layout pixel snapping, localization, and interoperability.

- Improvements to Windows Workflow (WF) that let developers to better host and interact with workflows. These include an improved activity programming model, an improved designer experience, a new flowchart modeling style, an expanded activity palette, workflow-rules integration, and new message correlation features. The .NET Framework also offers significant performance gains for WF-based workflows.

- Improvements to Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) such as support for WCF Workflow Services enabling workflow programs with messaging activities, correlation support, durable two-way communication and rich hosting capabilities.

- Additionally, .NET Framework 4 provides new WCF features such as service discovery, router service, simplified configuration and a number of improvements to queuing, REST support, diagnostics, and performance.

- Innovative new parallel programming features such as parallel loop support, Task Parallel Library (TPL), Parallel LINQ (PLINQ), and coordination data structures which let developers harness the power of multi-core processors.

Additional Requirements for Server Installation:
If you have to perform a server installation, your computer must have the following software in addition to the basic requirements:
Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 or later. To access the features of ASP.NET, IIS with the latest security updates must be installed before the .NET Framework is installed. ASP.NET is supported only on Windows XP Professional, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2 RC.
(Recommended) Microsoft Data Access Components 2.8 or later
Note: Most users do not have to perform a server installation. If you are unsure whether to perform a server installation, just perform a basic installation.
