I am trying to understand why Excel fails to interact with user when it runs
side by side with a win form application with embedded Excel Object. The
following is the description of the problem.
Excel does not respond to user's interation when Excel runs before the win

I am using a winform inside excel from a com add-in.
But when I open the form it has its own button on the Taskbar
I guess that I get get rid of it by passing excel as the owner when I show
the form but how do I do that?

I've got an automation add-in which calls a web service and returns the
results.
As the web service may take an arbitrary time to return the response, I make
the call in a worker thread, and use workerThread.Join(timeout) in the main

I’ve been trying for 2 days now to find any example or using
NetValidatePasswordPolicy and actually making it work.
However, I’ll explain my situation first, in case someone can think of
another means.

I have a C# application that shows a document to the user by opening it as a
PrintDocument. I would like the user to be able to click a button which would
launch Microsoft Word, or WordPad, or something like that, in case the user
wanted to edit the document. Once they had ...

OK. I have searched long and hard and wanted to know if there is an
easy/elegant/direct way to enumerate through all the DocumentProperties
and the CustomDocumentProperties for a Word document using C#.
For example say clearing all the DocumentProperties and the

I am wondering if every single field of a struct needs to be completely
attributed or if the runtime will marshall standard types "automagically"...
This would be the PInvok'd api call:
[DllImport("mywork.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.StdCall,

C code:
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=100)]public char rgwz;
Tried Vb codes;
<MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=100)>public char rgwz;

I'm trying to marshal data from a C API. The struct contains an array of
structs. The Marshal.PtrToStructure call throws a TypeLoadException with the
message - "Can not marshal field struct_arr of type NODE: This type can not
be marshaled as a structure field."

the Language Integrated Query May 26 preview.  Is that the latest?
how stable is it what kind of problem I should expect If install that .
Currently I have .net 2 with latest update plus VB express 2005.

I am new to .NET, and am trying to write an application that connects
to a DCOM server that we use. Wonderfully (unlike with ASP) I can now
import the type library for my DCOM server, and have my code checked at
compile time.

I noticed that the documentation for GetFunctionPointerForDelegate
states that "The delegate d is converted to a function pointer
that  can be passed to unmanaged code using the __stdcall
calling  convention."

I'm trying to use the windowless RTF interface provided by ITextServices as
I cannot find any other standard method for dealing with RTF in C#.  Can
someone please point me to an example or let me know how I can access this
interface using C#?
