In Windows Explorer, when I left-click on a directory in the right panel,
instead of opening the directory, a command prompt window appears. The title
of this black window is c:\\windows\system32\cmd.exe. The only manner I can
open a directory is to open it from the left panel, or right click and choose
open. What happened? And, how can I fix it? Thank you.

Hi...

Didn't see another group that would be more specific for this.

I inherited from another programmer a C# class using the System.Net.Sockets
classes to implement a udp broadcast/receive notification system so that all
the machines on a subnet can keep up-to-date on events.

In his classes, he prefaces each broadcast message with a guid so that when
a message comes in he can check to see if it's one he just sent. This
spurred a couple of questions for me:
1) I haven't yet seen a message I drop on the broadcast address come back on
my receiver socket. Was this just speculative overkill on his part?

2) Now I know this sounds a little daft, but he purposely set it up so that
multiple processes on the same box can both broadcast and receive. Would I
see the message coming from my box on one of the other processes (if I get
one started up) that's listening on the same port? Did I not get my message
back because the socket classes recognize my identity down the the process
level?

Thanks

I've installed Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition and have
a couple questions.
At the time I did the install, I had my My Documents folder mapped to a
network drive.
I have since mapped it back to my local drive, how can I get VWD to
recognize the new path?
I have also installed DotNetNuke and when I go to setup the database it
comes back with an error that indicates that it can't create the DB on a
mapped drive...
If it's just the DotNetNuke project that is recognizing the network path to
my My documents, how do I delete a project?

I ended up creating more than one DotNetNuke project so would like to delete
the extra one.
I can't see any way to delete a project...

Any help would be appreciated!!!

If this isn't the place to post these questions, please advise on the
appropriate group.
I've running this on an XP Pro machine if it matters.

Thanks!

Hello,

There is an plugin-based application where user can plug own
handlers for controls.
Of course to plug handler user has to know the control name. Currently
there is a document
from where the user can see the control on form and assigned name.
This is very poor solution and we're
looking for something better.
One idea is to define that when user holds let's say ctrl and alt and
then clicks control, the MessageBox appears with the name of the
control. Unfortunetely in Compact Framework not all controls handle
Click event (ie TextBox)

Please help with that, do you have any idea how to do that?

Hello,

Problem with catching exceptions in WebClient.UploadFileAsync.

VS 2005 winform project using WebClient.UploadFileAsync. Everything works
fine so far (with Progressbar + Credentials) but when an error occurs
(Server not reachable, Connection broken...) the exception is not caught, it
ends up with "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation" in
main(). When WebClient.UploadFile is used, evreything works fine.

WebClient wc = new WebClient();

wc.UploadFileCompleted += new
UploadFileCompletedEventHandler(UploadFileCallback);

wc.UploadProgressChanged += new
UploadProgressChangedEventHandler(UploadProgressCallback);

wc.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(uid, pw, "");

Uri uri = new Uri("http://server/file_receive.aspx");

try

{

wc.UploadFileAsync(uri, "POST", path2file);

}

catch (WebException wex)
