How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
The Windows Workflow Foundation SDK includes a sample application called Workflow Monitor. Workflow Monitor uses the Workflow Designer control to visually display the execution status of a workflow.
In this screencast, Moustafa Ahmed (Program Manager on the Windows Workflow Foundation team), gives a demo of the Workflow Monitor tool that will be included as a sample in the SDK for Windows Workflow Foundation Beta 2.

What other kinds of queries will you be able to make with beta 2 ?
The query you make to get some activity property value, you get the data also from the tracking service? So you save state data into the tracking service? The tracking service SQL database changes in beta 2?
Really glad to know you guys are building something great!
Ariel Schapiro.
In Beta2 we plan to add Query APIs layer atop of the out of box SqlTrackingService. As you've seen in the screencast, you can use those APIs to find workflows by execution status, activities from within your workflow and their activity execution status history, and activity properties' values that you decided to track. There are other capabilities that are being finalized now. Certainly, if you have more needs that are not satisfied by this query layer, you can always go directly and query your database.
I am glad to see you excited about the technology

My question is about the possibility to customize the activity shape on the basis of its status. For example I'd like to set the rectangle activity background color to yellow while it's in running state, and to green when is completed. In the demonstration instead I see that to distinguish a running activity a small green arrow is shown on the wv designer. Can you give me some additional info?
And sorry for my bad english...
nice job, but where can we get the tool ???????
I also downloaded and installed the Windows SDK (w/ WWF) and unpack the Windows Workflow Monitoring sample app.
When I build it, it succeeds, but it displays an error when ran, it seems it cannot connect to the correct database. But the connection details are correct.
My machine is DESKTOP, database is TRACKINGSTORE and WORKFLOWSTORE
Please help, I can't run the Windows Workflow Monitoring Tool.
"Exception in GetWorkflows
Could not load file or assembly 'HostingWorkflowRuntime,
Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null' or
one of its dependencies..."
Please help.
I think that workflow designer host has one big drawback. I don't understand why do you need to have access to workflow assembly in order to draw the activities
. I think that markup serialized representation such as one existing in SqlTracking database
should be enough to display workflow, and it will enable remote monitoring scenarious 
.

Did anyone solve this problem? I'm using WWF Beta 2.2.
Please, help! [C]
The workflow assemblies need to be discoverable by the process calling the SqlTrackingQuery APIs. In your case, and per the error message, please make sure that the HostingWorkflowRuntime assembly and its dependencies are either GAC'ed or in the same directory as the WorkflowMonitor.exe. Hope this helps.
