Soooo, its been very busy 2 months for me. I've started a new project for one of my company customers. I also passed 2 MCP exams 70-356 / 70-528 which makes me an MCTS - "Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist", and still I have few more test to become an MCSD. In the new project I started, I needed to map all the references dependencies between the 52 (!!!) class libraries exists in the solution - Its very hard to map this manually, and probably will take me forever. I found...

Yet, another OneNote2007 post... OneNote2007 is a great progy, Odd!... I've swear I said that before, never mind, its worth it! So lets say you writing a note, and lets say you wish to add an image to you note, OneNote2007 gives you the ability to capture an image on the fly... Press the "Window button" + S - and oops, the screen goes blank! Now, select the area you want to capture and, witness the magic.

Radiohead band choose to release their new album " In Rainbows " for free or for a price that you decides. If you wish to download it, just go to their new site of the album, add it to your shopping cart (after feeling some details) and download it. Off-course you can choose to pay some amount of money (in pounds) - as you wish. So far, more than a million people already downloaded the album and declare they paid for it! Enjoy!

When you ready to post your note, press the post button. If it's the first time you send a blog post through OneNote2007, you'll be asked to set a few setting and configurations...
Its easier then you think... First, you must understand the directory structure. Once you do, learn about the files needed to create the extension. You can create extensions of all kind and not only a Toolbar. For you're convenient, rather writing all of the XML code here, I attached the source code completely to this post, so just download it and try it. First, a look at the directory structure, witch is VERY important to understand and follow: - MyToolbar (Root Dir) - - chrome (Sub Dir) - ...
I’m sure everyone knows the “Luts Roeder’s” Reflector application. For those of you how don’t, reflector gives you the abbility to inspect compiled DLL (compiled by .NET compiler to IL), and to see the methods, properties, variables inside the DLL exactly as the programmer wrote them, in your preferred language – C#, VB.NET. Not once, I wanted to extract the code inside the DLL out to his source files for “learning” purposes and to inspect and even to re-build the code again on my machine. The only...
If you have a blog at blog.Microsoft.co.il, then you familiar with the Double line when pressing enter. It happens because every time we press enter, the editor automatically add a new <p></p> and wraps the text in the line. Now, by default, the margins for this tags <p></p> (top, bottom) are very high, I think its 7-10px approximately. To prevent this for happening, you only need to override a CSS class in the " My Blog Dashboard ", just add the next code: .post...
I found a cool trick for auto completing some code blocks. Personally, I find it very convenient while i'm in hyperspace speed coding. Its called snippets and its built-in in Visual Studio, and you can create one yoursefe. When you start a new "try" block, after finishing to write "try", immediately press TAB button, it will auto complete to: try { } catch ( Exception ) { throw ; } When you start a new condition block, "if (2 > 1)", and after you add the "else"...
I changed my blog theame by overriding the css, in the "My Blog Dashboard". Surprisingly it was very easy to modified, you just need to know witch css class belong to the html tags. If you like to learn how, just send me an eMail.
Recently, I attended in the last lecture by ALM (meeting group) about SCRUM . I must say, at first, I didn't hooked up with the idea, and its seems like a wonderful world who's not connected to the reality. I finally consolidate my opinion about this method, which looks like a' lot of fun after all ! Its seems like a best practice for dynamic and cool environment. Here's some reasons that makes the different for me: The fun in the entire process - project life cycle. The team developers deciding...
Yesterday Yesterday, All those Check-ins seemed a waste of pay. Now my source files have all gone away. Oh I believe in yesterday. Suddenly, There's not half the files there used to be, And there's a milestone hanging over me. The Source Safe crashed so suddenly. I pushed something wrong What it was I could not say.
