Here it is folks! Check out the high quality recordings if you can so you see the demo a lot better. And if you have any questions for the team you can also head on over to the LightSwitch HTML Client Forum.

Enjoy!

Re: Walkthrough of a Real-World LightSwitch Application used at Microsoft

Hi guys,

glad you liked the video. @Chris, once the video goes into a screencast it is full size. I recommend watching the High Quality WMV (link is on the right) if you want to see the code better. BTW, I watched it on my Windows Phone 7 last night and it looked great.

As for the code, I plan on getting Sheel to upload the custom control report builder and the Excel importer as a sample. We'll be working on getting those plus a couple more full-blown apps onto the new Samples Gallery next week. I'll come back and post a link here when they are online. For now, check out the new course manager sample here: http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/lightswitch/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=5531

Cheers,

Hi guercheLE,

No, LightSwitch isn't dependent on these frameworks but you will see similar patterns. Take a look at this post and the comments on the team blog - I think it will answer your questions:

Hmm.. I'm not seeing that. Sometimes I have better luck downloading the low res WMV under downloads.

Re: Best Practices on Building SharePoint 2010 Web Parts with Visual Studio 2010

funkyonex — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 16:03:07 GMT

@kaneboy2000 Thanks, glad you like the series! I'm on the same BizApps team as these folks and so I thought it would be fun to show off some of these new tools in Visual Studio 2010. I'm learning SharePoint 2010 myself and VS2010 is making it so much easier.

@Stephan1024 You're going to need 4gig of RAM for SharePoint Foundation to be snappy. I think Boris has 8gig on his machine running SharePoint server. Take a look at the developer requirements here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee554869(office.14).aspx">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee554869(office.14).aspx

Sorry for the delay guys, we've been out for the holidays.

@ RockyRaccoon42 -- I'll see if Mike has the code. Otherwise I'm working on a blog post this week on how to do this & I'll include sample code.

@kaneboy2000 -- We'll definitely be bringing you more so stay tuned!

Re: "I'm a VB" Interview: Bill Vaughn, Visual Basic MVP

funkyonex — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 15:40:49 GMT

Hi Blueshift,

Believe me when I say we worked really hard on the sound quality. Because the interviews were done at random parties and events at the MVP summit, there was a lot of background noise. We had to filter it with music just so you could hear the main speakers. It sounds a lot better with it than without it.

Glad you like the interviews!

Re: WPF Improvements in Visual Studio 2010 for Building Business Apps

funkyonex — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 19:37:12 GMT

Hi guys,

Thanks for the feedback. The build we were showing you was "hot off the presses" so to speak and was also accessed through TS. I wouldn't focus on the perf at this point, it's the tooling that we're trying to show you. As for the video quality I have to render it this way so you can see the screencast at the same time and also so it doesn't end up being a 2 gig download . Heh, I'm not a video editor, I'm a code junkie so I appologise for any roughness. You might try just downloading it and playing it outside the SL player to see if that helps.

Cheers,
-Beth

Hi kaanuki,

Have you taken a look at the VB Learn topics: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vbasic/ms789086.aspx

Also there are a good deal of How Do I videos that were recorded with 2005 here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vbasic/bb466226.aspx#formsoverdata

You may also want to check out this site as well: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/beginner/bb308760.aspx

What are you interested in learning? Syntax/Language, Data Access, Office Development? I may be able to point you in better directions...

I think what Amanda is saying is that there is a very wide variety of people using Visual Basic, not only professional developers like us

Thanks! I really like the format as well. Since we wanted to show you the VB Team's favorite Orcas features, I think this was the best medium to show it so you could see all the code. I'll be posting more so stay tuned.

Thanks again,
