Now that is a bad ass title!! Anyone who has been through the MindSharp training course for SharePoint and any others that have looked at any code Todd Bleeker puts out there will most certainly be aware of using post build scripts in Visual Studio to deploy your sharepoint project. This knowledge is of course not limited to MindSharp grads, its just that being one I know what they know! To get them to work in a Windows 2008 and Visual Studio 2008 environment you will need to make some changes. As...
When working with asp.net and now XAML I lean towards code view over the designer, a preference of course, but considering this feature I guess I am not alone.

You need to change a couple of values in the registry... [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWAR... "CodeBase"=file:///C:\\Program...
OK so anyone reading this is most likely aware that Visual Studio 2008 beta 2 has been released but you may not be aware that today they have released Silverlight RC1, Silverlight 1.1 tools for VS 2008. Plus MS have released a refresh to Expression Blend. Scott Hanselman's has the best post I have seen and is a one stop shop for all VS 2008 info. Check it out http://www.hanselman.com/bl...
