Innovation Days Presentations

Hi Everyone, I am back at my desk after 2 weeks of gruelling travel. The responses I've got from the 6 cities that I've presented in, have made it worth every second spent in planes and at airports and in traffic jams! Here are the locations for the presentations and code snippets used during my sessions:

• Key Note


• Running Well On Windows Vista


• "WPF/E" Building Better Web Experiences

Vista + Office dev launch

You can download the code that I used for my Windows Vista dev launch session in Delhi and Hyderabad from here.

For more on Guided Help, check out the ACW (active content wizard) team blog.

ACWStudio - the tool that I demoed, is part of Windows Automated Installation Kit which you can grab from here. Remember that guided help is not something that you can simply ship as a stand-alone download for your product. Currently, any custom guided help module, can only be deployed as part of your enterprise Windows Vista rollout. We do appreciate your feedback about how you would use guided help if it were to ship as a standalone SDK.
