TOO MUCH MATERIAL, TOO LITTLE TIME…
For the first time we
are actually planning 2 separate presentations for our lunch and dinner
meetings. In the wake of the launch of VS 2005, SQL 2005, Biz Talk
2006, and, of course, the .NET Framework 2.0, there is just too much
material to cover for just one short meeting. This month we plan to
maximize our opportunity to bring you the most of this new material
with different presentations for each session. Following the November
17th, highly attended and outstanding MSDN Event, “The Best of
Visual Studio 2005 Launch Event” here in OKC, our own Raymond Lewallen
will bring you “The Rest of Visual Studio 2005”
Lunch topic: Visual Studio 2005 Launch Event – The Rest of Visual Studio 2005
SQLCLR – How, When and Why
Raymond will talk about common uses for SQLCLR and when using the
SQLCLR is appropriate, as well as walk through Visual Basic code
examples on creating and using objects within the SQLCLR. Raymond
will also discuss creating web services from directly within Sql Server.
Evening topic: Visual Studio 2005 Launch Event – The Rest of Visual Studio 2005
VB 2005 Language Enhancements
Raymond will explore many of the new enhancements to the Visual
Basic 2005 language and go through examples on using them to
demonstrate how they work, such as Generics, Using, TryCast, IsNot and
the new My namespace to name a few.
For the last 11 years, Raymond Lewallen has worked with more
programming languages than he can recall, but currently specializes in
VB and C# as well as Sql Server. Working primarily in the public
sector during his career, Raymond has designed and built several very
high profile enterprise level applications for all levels of the
government, and currently works on a project for the Federal Aviation
Administration as a contractor employed by L-3 Communications, Titan
