Philip RieckPhil in .netWaitHandles for the confused- January 27, 2004 I put up a somewhat old writeup on the ManualResetEvent and AutoResetEvent on my full blog, thought since it was .net, I'd post here as well. Here's an excerpt: Confused about WaitHandles Sure you are. For one, they have the word "Event" on them.. Are they events Do they call delegates. For another, what's this "Reset" action, and why would I want to do it manually And lastly, what does the documentation mean when it says "Signaled" and "Nonsignaled" In project codename you see a good...http://weblogs.asp.net/prieck/archive/2004/01/27/63510.aspx Sharing my oft-used Ink controls, part 1.- January 22, 2004 I do a good amount of TabletPC development, pretty much mostly for myself.

I don't know why this comes up so often, so I thought I'd add a quick tip about it. If you have a strongly typed dataset (some call them XSD datasets), great.

I know I didn't write the regex pattern. I also know I don't want to lose this and have to try. ,(=("""")(!""))
