eWorld.UI - Matt Hawley

I just found a major plus about Outlook 2003 that I just love! I'm constantly setting flags and then digging into my "for follow up" search folder so I can easily access emails I need frequently. One email that I've been using a ton lately, is an email with several different login's and passwords for an application I'm working on. It turns out that jumping between folders within Outlook is extremely smart. Whenever you return to a folder, it re-selects which email/post you had selected last. Very handy when I don't have to dig through 30 emails to find the one I'm looking for.

I posted this to the ASP.NET forums back in November of 2002, and, too much of my dismay, still is an issue and people are still having problems figuring this out. I don't really know how many times I've helped people with this problem, and just recently I had to do the same. So, for my own personal reference (mainly), and to share the information, I decided to re-post it in my blog...

I was working with my EmptyDataGrid control on a project at work today, when I noticed a bug that could affect just about anyone using it. It turns out that if you have Paging turned on, and no data is returned, the EmptyTemplate gets appended to the DataGrid after the Pager item.

Well as I BlogJet kept telling me that it was time to upgrade, I kept checking. Alas, today there is a new version. However, its not Beta anymore, and comes with a 30-day trial and a $19.95 registration fee. I guess I actually have to determine how much I like BlogJet over other free utilities now.

Not sure if anyone noticed, but the latest build of Longhorn, 4074, has a completely different icon for Notepad now.

I'm sitting here watching over my download from MSDN for the Longhorn 7.2 SDK, and I constantly find myself suspending and resuming the download. But, why? Well, because I think downloading the 700MB file at 40 KB/sec is just too darn slow, so if I suspend and resume, it'll jump to above 100KB to 200KB for about 1 more minute.

Ahh, so I just had a revisit of why For loops are not as good as While loops sometimes. Most commonly, I try to avoid using While loops, but after trying to convert this Master Detail example I realized that I needed a While loop instead of a For loop.

... downloading longhorn, but I don't have time to do some of the suggested things because its almost time for our Central IL Dot Net User Group meeting.
