This code snippet illustrates how to capture desktop or any window to a bmp file with minimum coding. It also demonstrates a neat way to save device context (DC) to a file on hard disk. To capture window we can make use of built in functions available in Windows API. To get list of functions available in this API, use API Viewer tool which can be added to Visual studio from Add-Ins Manager. Here is the list of some functions used from API :
* GetWindowDc - Retrieves device context of DC

Manually preparing data dictionary document will take ages in MS Word which contains 100's of tables, stored procedures, functions, triggers, views, indexes, etc. in the SQL Server database as you need to type each and every column of the table along with the associated dependencies. I need a data dictionary document which generates the database schema automatically in one click with nicely formatted. For this I did lot of research in Google to find the solution and finally I have wrote my own c...

Visual Studio 2008 introduces types that do not have a type name – these are called anonymous types. In this walkthrough, you'll see what happens behind the scenes when anonymous types are created, and how generics are used to reduce the number of implicitly declared types in your assembly. We will look into the resulting Intermediate Language (IL) to better understand what gets created to support the use of an anonymous type....

Hi to all, this is my first control, and it was created after an unsuccessful search for an ActiveX control capable of scrolling text vertically.

Use this code freely, if you like it, please try to improve it to get the most out of this control and be sure to send me an email with the new version,...

DB Manual Copy Visual Studio 2005 Add-In

One annoying feature I have found from Visual Studio 2005 is how it handles the SQL Server 2005 Express database files (.MDF and .LDF) while debugging project. As by default Visual Studio has for content files of database type the option "Copy To Output Directory" set to "Copy Always". This is good is you constantly change the database schema, tables, stored procedures, views etc, but if you have a working schema that you want to edit both with your application and with the IDE, you have to set ...

This small application recursively extracts multiple zip files from a source folder and its subfolders to a destination folder. Source and destination folders can be the same. After the extraction the user is asked to delete the zip files. Beyond its utility as an application, the code demonstrates the BackgroundWorker component, introduced in the .NET framework v.2....

So here I am, back at it once more. I needed a color-picker control for a project I'm working on and like most developers, I turned to my handy toolbar to see what Microsoft had for me in Visual Studio.

It wasn't long before I had a ColorDialog box coded and ready to use...ran my ap, clicked on the select color icon and there it was - or there something was. I guess technically, it IS a color selection tool...I mean, there are colors on the dialog box and you CAN pick them...but (and I am...

For the last two years, every couple of month or so an article appears claiming “C# is faster than VB.NET”. I agree C# is possibly very slightly faster, I won’t argue. Perhaps it is only fair. Perhaps it is to compensate the fact that C# programmers are probably not as good a VB programmers. You understand that, it is time to revive a good old war like we had years ago between Atari and Amiga. If we can't decide which Language is best, let's see which programmers are best, whether it is VB progr...

There are many, many examples of how to do encryption and decryption in .NET. So why one more? Well, for one thing, I find that the majority of good code examples of any type are issued in C#. This isn't surprising, since those from a C++ or Java background will have an easier transition to C# than a similarly experienced Visual Basic developer moving to VB.NET. It will take time for the VB.NET community to develop into what the C++ and Java community already has at its disposal. So, I thought t...
