Tracing at application and page level in ASP.NET applications
When we debug our applications we need to have as much information as possible at our disposal. There are a lot of techniques and ways to achieve that. One way to get lots of debugging information is to use Tracing. We can enable Tracing at the Page Level and Application Level. We can view the viewstate information and the events chain when a page is executing, among other things.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dotnetstories.wordpress.com&blog=1661705&post=1181&subd=dotnetstories&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" />

Lambda Expressions with VB.Net
Another idea-concept that is tightly linked with LINQ is LAMBDA expressions. Lambda expressions are shorthand for anonymous delegates . Basically delegates allow you to create a variable that “points” to a method. We can use this variable at any time to invoke the method.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dotnetstories.wordpress.com&blog=1661705&post=979&subd=dotnetstories&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" />

Writing from a windows form to microsoft word 2007 using VSTO
In this post I would like how easy it is to use Visual Studio Tools for Office. If you have never heard before of VSTO just google it. In a few words it is a component of Visual Studio(since Visual Studio 2005) that provides a robust, .NET-based environment for building business applications using classic Office programs like Word and Excel. So that means you do not have to learn the specific Office object models, and of course you do need VBA anymore.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dotnetstories.wordpress.com&blog=1661705&post=751&subd=dotnetstories&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" />
