I have a horizontal Splitter, for which I would like the top panel to
remain 20 pixels in height. I do this because I have a containter on
it, and I overide the OnPaint method. It is being painted as a band
similar to that of Disk Defragmentor.

Hey Folks,
I have searched "hours" for where this tricky option is documented. I
can NOT find it! So, I am asking assistance on two issues >>
1) What are the formatting switches available for the ToString()

In the Body of the MailMessage, if I wanted to have a few blank lines
below my message, how would I do that?  I know that if I was in VB, I
could probably get away with CHR(13) & CHR(10).
msg.Body = "The attached text file contains Craft labor.  ";

Basically i've read that under C++ we can avoid flickering forms during
sizing (maximize, minimize, restore,...) in SDi/MDI application.
I understood that for that i need to override the WndProc with WM_PAINT
and WM_SIZE messages.

How would only accept in MDI' form  one window children open at a time.
thanks

update the form with the new information.

I can't find where i have declared ICategoryService as being in the
IVS.WMS.Product namespace.  I have recompiled.  Deleted the obj and bin
dirs.  Removed the reference.  I can't figure out how the Server dll
thinks the ICategoryService interface is in the IVS.WMS.Product

What is the easiest way to convert StringBuilder to byte array?

I am playing with Visual Studio 2008 and LINQ to XML.

I'm trying to import code from a c++ unmanaged dll in a c# project.
In the dll there's a class named Connection, but the dll exposes only
2 methods (outside the class):

How can select a single word of text, in any application, e.g. Windows
Explorer, Internet Explorer etc. , without double clicking it and instead use
a combination of mouse and keyboard, for example Left Control key +  Right
Mouse Button, and retrieve that word into my application ...

I found an example online and when I tried repeating it with the proxy I
normally use for my browser, I get errors.
What I do is this:
WebProxy proxy = new WebProxy("http://www.autoconfig/pac", true);

How can i perform bitwise rotation in C#?
