.NET Data-Bound TreeView Control

"DataViewTree is a UserControl that can load hierarchical datasets into a Windows Forms TreeView control. The included sample project shows how to load an xml file into a dataset which is then passed to the DataViewTree control for display. Complete source for the DataViewTree control and sample project is included in the download." I know lots of folks want to data bind hierarchical data and this one includes the source if it doesn't do exactly what you're after.

Alintex Script Host brings scripting to .NET

From Alintex: Alintex Script Host lets you run scripts written in three Microsoft .NET languages - VB, C# and JScript. One can take full advantage of the power of the .NET Framework Class Library (FCL) to produce lightweight, yet powerful applications and utilities. Amongst other features, it allows you to mix and match all three supported .NET languages in the same script, yet optionally produce a single XML based Portable Script file for easy distribution. Alintex Script Host is FREE for both personal and commercial use.

Microsoft Releases MapPoint .NET Version 3.0

I'm a big fan of both the MapPoint .NET web service specifically (it's a model in several areas) and of the idea of commercial web services in general. Someday I hope to be able to afford this one. : )

High Perf. Image Processing in .NET Clients

"Not so many years ago, serious image processing meant using highly specialized hardware when same-day service was required. However, microprocessor manufacturers have consistently delivered exponential performance improvements for so long that even relatively modest client systems can now perform non-trivial image manipulation very quickly. These client capabilities were especially aided by the introduction of Streaming SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) Extensions to Intel® processors a few years ago, along with Intel's highly-optimized libraries for exploiting the technology. This article shows how to take advantage of these libraries in .NET client applications."

Info.NET, similar to Dashboard on MSN 8

From Ryan Dawson: I had talked earlier in the week to Chris about an application I was developing, and I said I would post it as a news item when it was finsihed (I should say just started, I am not close to being finished). If you are interested in advancing this program, please contact me -rd933@msn.com.
