(Bipin Joshi) In the Part 1 of this series we started developing a web user control that allows us to manage various aspects of user administration such as password recovery, role mapping and profile management. We configured the database and web site for availing membership, role and profile featur

(Handy Chang) In this article, I will explain about GDI+ in .NET Framework. If you haven’t heard about GDI+, then GDI+ is a set of classes in .NET framework that deal with graphics. You can use GDI+ to draw custom drawing on the screen. GDI provides a layer of abstraction, hiding the differences bet

(Scott Guthrie) The last few weeks I have been working on a series of blog posts that cover the new ASP.NET MVC Framework we are working on.

(Matt Weisfeld) For this article, you will compare and create code for three object-oriented languages: Java, C# .NET, and Visual Basic .NET. For information on the tools used to compile the .NET code, please visit the Microsoft web site at http://www.microsoft.com/net/Basics.mspx.

The evolution of the internet and its exponential growth in recent years has resulted in gradual shift from desktop to distributed applications.
