.Net On The Up And Up
I guess it’s kind of like rooting for the home team. I don’t really know how it came about, though. I started programming back in high school starting from BASIC to C and eventually, at the college level, I worked...
Workflow and SharePoint
Good stuff. Good freaking stuff. If you haven’t done so already, there’s an excellent high level white paper by David Chappell that you should download (if you work with such things like Office and SharePoint) which provides important information so...

Today’s entry is Windows Installer XML (WiX for short), an open source project (the first?) from Microsoft that is used internally by Microsoft development teams for building installers for many of their products. I first used it more than a...
Random DevTools Entry: #009
