      • I believe this is a kernel extension at least... I am trying to write a program as a UI helper that would sit between the user and a running program. For example, if it detected alt + mousewheel up, it would send a different input to the program than that normally would. is that possible edit: a friend told me that this is no longer possible in x64, only x86 is this true Thanks in advance,

      • I am new to WWF and have been working on a Finite State Machine workflow. One thing I don't understand is how I can share events between States. For example, I would like to support a cancel event in all states that simply terminates the workflow. All of the examples and the validation edits in the workflow editor imply that I must have a unique cancel event in every state. I have about 45 states

I installed a 2nd. hard drive for Vista, since I didn't want to screw up my system. Beta 2 looked nice, but was very bloated, and a bit unstable. I would get the "Black screen on death" no

      • Is it safe to cache and access RuleSets and RuleEngines from multiple threads I've done tests and everything seems to work OK (no exceptions, rules seem to execute fine). I ask because it's about an order of magnitude difference to spawn a new RuleEngine for each execution versus sharing one among threads. (Even higher to create new RuleSets...) The docs have the standard "static = safe, i

      • Hi, I grab the menuitem File|New Window from IE's File menu, which is under Desktop. And I clearly see it has Invoke ControlPattern in UISpy. But Invoke call does NOT create a new IE window, instead it just closes the menu (same behavioe for SetFocus call). The same code works fine for Notepad/Wordpad app's menu. Could MSFT folks shed some light on this Thanks, M

Basically it should look like a sequence activity, allowing the user to drop activities into it, but it should also have a Timeout property, after which if the activities in the sequence are not complete, it ends and sets some public WasTimeout property to true. The basic problem I'm having is envision
