Did you know that via drag and drop you can not only "move" documents, you can also "add" documents to a folder? ? That means instead of just changing from their current location (such as your Inbox) to the new folder, they also stay in their current location as well. ?It is called "add" instead of "copy", because copy sounds like it is creating an additional document, which it is not as I explain here.

In the animation below you can see that my inbox starts with four documents. ?Two of them are moved to a new folder via drag and drop. ?After the drop, the two documents are no longer displayed in the Inbox. ?Also notice how the folders expand when I hover over them.


This time I will do the same thing, but before I drop the documents, I press the CTRL key on my keyboard. ?The mouse cursor changes, adding a "+" sign, ?indicating that the documents are being "added" not moved. ? Notice after the drop the two documents are in the new folder, but they also remain in the Inbox.

I'm finally a believer. See, a few months ago, before I went on my Russia trip, I decided to install Windows Vista Beta 2. I was an early Win2K user and was able to use it (at home even) from Beta 1 on. Ditto with XP. Since I was giving a keynote I thought it would be nice for me to show off some of the great new look and feel features of Vista like Aero Glass, etc. A few days before I left, I pushed a clean install of Vista onto my laptop, a Toshiba M5. Install was rough. For some reasons the hardware laptops is nothing like that on desktops. Even with XP, it's not unusual to have to go dig up drivers for networking adapters, Bluetooth, etc. So for Vista, I had to install a bunch of alpha drivers, and even a pre-release BIOS. Yikes. So I got...(read more)

Earlier this summer I posted two tutorials on using Windows Authentication with ASP.NET:Enabling Window Authentication within an Intranet ASP.NET Web Application and Implementing Role Based Security within ASP.NET using Windows Authentication and SQL Server. I also linked to Scott Mitchell's great ASP.NET 2.0 Security, Membership and Roles Tutorials that cover how to use Forms Authentication and the new Membership/Roles APIs in ASP.NET for Internet based web applications. These tutorials covers how to implement authentication on your site, which is the process of identifying who an incominguser is. They also demonstrate how to implement role based management on your site, which allows you to logically group individual users into higher-level...(read more)
