Question about VS 2003 project folders
Hi, 
 
I'm using Visual studio .NET 2003 to work on asp.net project. In my project 
 
folder, every folders contains a special folder '_svn' used by TortoiseSVN, 
 
a 3rd party version control tools. My question here, how do I set my VS to 
 
automatically hide and/or exclude these folders since they are not part of 
 
my project and I don't want them to be copied to server when I issue Copy 
 
Project in VS, just like _vti_* folders. Is that possible? 
 
Thx

Custom properties
I have created a control and added a few properties.  One of these is an 
 
array of DateTime objects, looking like this: 
 
[Browsable(true), EditorBrowsable(EditorBrowsableState.Always), 
 
Description("whatever"), Category("look")] 
 
public DateTime [] MyDates 
 
{ 
 
get { return theDate;} 
 
set {theDate = value;} 
 
} 
 
When I add my control to the form I can open the DateTime collection editor 
 
from the properties window and set certain dates, but they do not seem to

Recommended way to add child controls in CreateChildControls
Hi all, 
 
What is the recommended way to add child controls *around* existing 
 
child controls in the CreateChildControls method (e.g. table, row and 
 
cell controls for layout purposes)? 
 
Is the best way to keep a reference to the existing child controls, 
 
clear the Controls collection and then re-add everything along with the 
 
layout controls, or insert the layout controls around the existing 
 
controls in the existing Controls collection? 
 
Thanks,

We currently have an ecommerce application installed on a W2K Advanced

Install C# Express after VS.NET 2005?
I'm sure this has been asked before, but... 
 
Is it possible to install Visual C# Express Edition AFTER installing 
 
Visual Studio .NET 2005 Standard Edition? 
 
I would like to develop some personal applications in C#, but don't want 
 
to use Visual Studio since the license for it belongs to my employer

How Do I Roll Back A SelectedIndex Change If I Don't Like It
I am making a webpage.  On it I have a couple of dropdownlists that 
 
work in conjunction.  I have them autopostback, and I check for 
 
conflicts within the SelectedIndexChanged event handler.  By mistake, 
 
some time ago, I had the dropdownlist not commit the change when the 
 
page was posted back and a conflict was detected.  For the life of me, 
 
I cannot remember how I did it. 
 
To be clear: when a user makes a change, I want to evaluate it, and if 
 
I don't like it, I want to return  ...

Is MSbuild appropriate for automated builds of a large code base?
I've got a source tree with over 100 projects, some depending on others and 
 
I'd like to set this up on an automated nightly build, or where devs can do 
 
private builds of the entire source tree to verify their code integration 
 
into the build before they check in. 
 
When I worked at Microsoft, we used CoreXt to do this.  Does MSBuild support 
 
this sort of build management?  Or should I look elsewhere like NAnt.

Operators Inherited?
Hi all. 
 
I was led to believe that static methods were not inherited by their 
 
subclasses (and since that makes sense, rightly so). 
 
However, a subclass I've written is using it's (abstract) superclass's 
 
operators. How can that be when operators are always static? 
 
Is it a special case? It's handy, sure, but doesn't it "break" the language 
 
somehow? Or isn't this actually inheritance at play here?

problem regarding threads, invoke and class libraries
Hi, 
 
I have a class library with some classes...  One of those classes fire 
 
events from a different thread. When I try to display the information 
 
contained in the event args of this event in my UI, it says I can't access 
 
my control's properties from a different thread...  I wanted to use the 
 
Invoke() method, but it's not available in my class nor in my thread... What 
 
is the solution to this? I mean, how can I raise events like all others do, 
 
in-proc with the form's thread? 
 
thanks
