| ASP.NET 2.0's Client Callback Feature |
| DotNetJunkies |
| One of the most overlooked features of ASP.NET 2.0, part of Visual Studio 2005 or "Whidbey", is the Client Callback feature. This feature allows you to programmatically call server-side methods through client-side JavaScript code without the need for posting back the page. This article describes how to use the Client Callback feature to implement your own callback scenario and introduces the new TreeView control that has this feature built in. |

| Building a real-life web-experience : Don´t trip over the threads. |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In my previous contribution I took a look at calling web-services. There I
showed how to asynchronously invoke a web-service from a Windows form. Behind
the scenes the project involved a lot of threading issues. The .NET framework is
very good at handling these but there is one thing I overlooked. In this paper I
will dive deeper into the matter and build build a more complicated service
which serves jpeg pictures. A windows form consumer will make asynchronous invocations
of the web-service to |

| C# Browser History Monitoring Application (Part 1) |
| C#Today |
| The application developed by Jan Narkiewicz in this article monitors the browser history file of a currently logged in user. As the user surfs the web, the contents of their browser history folder are mirrored to a secure location. Inside the mirrored location (only accessible to administrators on the machine) all additions and updates to the users browser history folder are recorded. Deletions are not recorded. The idea is to monitor a users web surfing habits without letting them know their surfing habits are being monitored. |

| Choosing Among File I/O Options in Visual Basic .NET |
| MSDN |
| This article is aimed at the Visual Basic programmer who may be confused by the multiplicity of ways to approach file I/O in Visual Basic .NET. Available alternatives include the methods provided in the Visual Basic .NET runtime, the FileSystemObject, and the methods furnished in the common language runtime. Upon completion, the experienced developer will be familiar with all three and will be equipped to make choices among them. |

| Creating a custom DataGridColumnStyle in C# |
| C#Today |
| The .NET framework provides many unique controls like the DataGrid, which is a data bound list control that displays the items from a data source in a table. The DataGrid is the most powerful and flexible control in the .NET toolbox. In this article, Chad DePue takes a look at one aspect of the DataGrids flexibility, by creating a custom column. The DataGrid provides two types of columns for free, the DataGridTextBoxColumn and the DataGridBoolColumn, but there are many types of data that wont fit into either of these two column types. In the example given, we want to search a directory for icon (.ICO) files and display each icon as a row in the DataGrid. Neither of the existing column styles will do this for us, so we create our own. |

| Creating a Smart Base Factory Pattern |
| DotNetJunkies |
| Factory design patterns are a common approach used to help decouple object creation and instantiation from the client. In this tutorial, we will implement a slight twist on a standard factory pattern, devising a project dynamically capable of instantiating and providing information on new or removed concrete objects. |

| Directory Picker Dialog |
| C# Corner |
| Although the open file dialog is a good tool for picking files, sometimes its the desire of the programmer to have a dialog that chooses a directory. This simple directory picker should get you started on this useful windows function. I wrote a previous article on this topic for Beta 1, but wanted to redo it for Beta 2. This Directory Picker in this article is also a bit different because it uses the "Large Icon" view of the ListView to traverse through directories. |

| Exposing Proprietary Data the .NET Way |
| MSDN |
| The .NET Framework comes with the OLE DB managed provider, which is meant to be a bridge that gives you immediate access to all the existing OLE DB providers. This component saves your current investments, as applications can continue successfully calling into existing OLE DB providers. The point, though, is another. In .NET, exposing proprietary data requires a more thoughtful choice, mostly because you have multiple and equally powerful options from which to choose.
