Visual Studio 2008 Launch Event

Published 27 February 08 08:27 AM

Even though Visual Studio 2008 has been available since mid-November, today is the official Visual Studio 2008, Windows Server 2008, and SQL Server 2008 launch event down in Los Angeles.

If you aren't at the event in L.A. you can tune into the virtual event online. On the Heroes Happen Here web site you also can find more information about the releases and view profiles of customers doing amazing things with Visual Studio in the Heroes Profile Gallery.

This marks the beginning of hundreds of events worldwide that will touch hundreds of thousands of people. I'll be presenting at the San Francisco event on March 13th and then in Reno on May 22nd. Hope to see you there.    

Enjoy!

i made a simple media player with vb.net 2005

it is working well but i had these problems

1-how can i get all of file names i selected and pressed enter to play them with my application

i tried startupnext instance event and i got all file names but this was a very slow way and doesn't work well when you have alot of files

i mean i have to wait every file name to be sent to an instance of my application

Hi Saleem,

I don't know much about windows media player. You should ask questions like this in the forums: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/default.aspx?ForumGroupID=10&SiteID=1

Saleem,

Please use the forums for this question. Many many many Microsoft support engineers are there answering questions. It's not polite to spam my blog.

Hi arthur,

What is "slow"? There have been many perf improvements in VS08. There was one hotfix related to XML comments that was released recently, maybe this is your issue?
