Help Favorites

Hi All,

One disappointment in VS2008 is that Microsoft has not improved the
'favorites' section of the help browser.

Specifically, an ability to organise favorites in folders, and to sort them
by name would be nice.

I'm hoping these features are already there and someone here can enlighten
me on how to use them, but if they aren't, is there a back door way to access
the help favorites and at least sort them via windows explorer or somesuch?

Is there any one "add to favorites" code that will work for IE, NS, AOL, and a host of others? At least some code that will give me an effective "add to favorites" for the highest percentage of users. The code in my searches have been disclaimed has working with this but not that. I'm not sure how old some of this code is either. thanks!

Greetings This is rather ambitious: I have a split database that contains many different reports. I have a form that the end user launches the reports from. They select the report criteria from several combo boxes, click a "Go" command button to launch the report. I then pass the report criteria to various report "templates" as an SQL string.

Basically, what I am looking to do is to sync up browsers favorites via a website without a download. I thought of javascript when first doing this, as I know, mozilla would allow me to pull them directly just with the js, but I do not want to have go beyond javascript and PHP. I have been going over making a mozilla extension as well as getting into some programming for a toolbar(I know some c/c++ and c#), but, if I can do something...

So, what are the ways in which a network admin could remove the Favorites menu from Windows Explorer (presumably by use of a group policy), and how can I overcome it and put my favorites menu back where it belongs? Originally I was able to get it back by correcting...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Hello I'm a network technician in training and I need your help. I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
