I've used Visio for many years now and having just installed Visio 2016 Professional, I tried to create a sitemap in the normal way but couldn't find the option to specify a URL/address to use - the wizard isn't automatically invoked, etc. It's definitely the "Professional" edition so the option should be available unless Microsoft have "streamlined" the product still further.
Does anyone know how to access/enable this feature or if it's even included any more?
The online help is utterly useless and I can only find one relevant article via Google which, unfortunately, doesn't provide a solution.
Thanks for looking :)
For anyone with the same issue, downloading and installing the Visio 2016 SDK was the solution. Now, when I select "Web Site Map", under "Software", the wizard automatically runs and I'm able to enter a URL and generate a sitemap.

I installed Latest Version of Developer Toolkit for vs2015 and after that when i use toolkit to connect to CRM, after click on connect button it does not do anything. no error, no success action,
i delete every Cache data and every Temp data and Clear my solution but nothing change,
do you have any idea? help me please because i want to develop custom workflow step and develop plugins with this toolkit.
As far as I know, Microsoft's Developer's Toolkit has been dormant for quite some time.
Current options are:
Jason Lattimer's Developer Extensions
Which is also on GitHub.
Or the commercial add-on XrmToolkit, which has a 30-day free trial.
If you go with Jason's solution and you're looking to do early bound development you might want to also look into XrmToolbox's Early Bound Generator by Daryl LaBar.
The XrmToolkit includes its own proprietary proxy class generator.
Is there anything like Google Slides, which can be integrated into the app we are building?
If not, then atleast a way to programmatically import the ppt file, and navigate to the editor for editing?
Any suggestions will be appreciated...
There's an official powerpoint online editor now. You could theoretically put an iframe linking to this page. It seems to require a 365 or Microsoft account, though.
I had a similar requirement and have tested both the online offerings of Microsoft Office (SharePoint, One Drive) and Google docs. However, I finally decided on Only Office (https://www.onlyoffice.com/). The reasons for this were:
The Google and Microsoft offerings didn't (AFAIAK) have the fine tuned security I needed for document editing and access via their various API (i.e. I needed to be able to prevent downloads of documents but allow editing)
Google and Microsoft require sign-in from their respective platforms to use these. This was a UX problem for my project.
Depending on the specific requirement Only Office has the Document Server on a GNU APGL v3 licence. You may need to buy a licence but worth a check.
Their repo is here:

Does anyone have an offline visual basic 6 api documentation in pdf, chm or hlp format.

The MSDN library for VB6 ships with the installer discs and can be downloaded from MSDN. The MSDN installation is available offline after installation to your machine.
I don't think there is an official download for non-subscribers. So you either need to find the discs that shipped with the original product, or download them from your subscription.
What I did is that I saved the content, API description from the website in docx. Yes it took time. about 20 mins
I am pretty new in source control installation and inner workings, although I already had worked with TFS, I have no clue about how to make it work from scratch.
Basically I want to have some source control in my personal VS2010 projects, so I may see the code evolution, rollback and etc. but I am a little lost about how may I set it up...as far as I can see, I have to have a Team Foundation Server running, so is it possible to install one in my PC? Is it free? Or there is a better way for doing it?
I just want some simple tips like "hey man, here are the steps you should follow" or "this is impossible, you have to have a server" or "follow this tutorial"
Thanks a lot guys!
[Disclaimer: I work on TFS and tfspreview.com]
If you are looking for ease of set up and a free offering then I would highly recommend tfspreview.com. While it is still in "preview" mode, it is certainly usable and safe. The site itself also has a great "learn" section to help you get started. The best part is that it has features available that haven't even been released in the on-premises product yet and the development team is consistently adding new features.
If you have any questions about the service, I'd be glad to answer them.
Oh, one other note, to connect to the hosted service you will need to install the VS 2010 compatibility GDR but that is free also.
GIT is a brilliant source control that has allot of easy to use functionality. In fact that have an extension for VS2010 as well. Check under the extensions menu and install the GIT extension. You can them commit and update from within VS itself. Super easy to use!
Enjoy :)
I am working on in installer project that needs to gather some info and act on it during the install (mainly online key retreival and registration). The Setup Project UserInterface templates seem inflexible and poorly documented so I am looking at opening a WinForm as a Custom Action.
I know this is possible because I see reference to it in many places but this is my first Windows Installer experience and so far it is mired in googled contradictions, partial or outdated information and guesswork... erg....
Does anyone have (even a pointer to) a clear concise description of how one gets this done in a VS 2008 WinForm project...
Many thanks for inputs
There is no guarantee that the .net framework is installed when the installer is launched (especially on Windows XP). A best practice is to keep your installer away from any dependencies.
Put the online key retrieval and registration in your application rather than doing all that stuff during install.
Create a standard installer class. In the class create your form and show it (ShowDialog is prefered)
