Fullscreen Alt-Tab problem in ManagedD3D
I have a problem to do a proper Alt-Tab handling in Managed DirectX. I have looked at the Microsoft framework sources and I believe I have done the same thing like them but when I press Alt-Tab after windows has been minimized the device is not restored. The empty window just pops up.
Do you have any idea, how can I do it?

It could be to do with the security context of the service  , which account are you running the service from ?

As usual i found the answer myself, sorry for posting so early ...
This is an extract from MS .NET Help:

################################
The Process component communicates with a child process via a pipe. If a child process writes enough data to the pipe to fill the buffer, the child will block until the parent reads the data from the pipe. This can cause deadlock if your application is reading all output to standard error and standard output, for example, using the following C# code.
[C#]
Process p = new Process("...", "...");
p.UseShellExecute = false;
p.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
p.Start();
p.WaitForExit();
string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
In this instance, both the parent and the child processes would be blocked, as the filled pipe prevents the child process from completing, while the parent process is waiting indefinitely for the child process to exit.
This problem can be solved by moving the ReadToEnd() before the WaitForExit(), as follows.
[C#]
Process p = new Process("...", "...");
p.UseShellExecute = false;
p.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
p.Start();
string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
p.WaitForExit();
A similar problem arises if you redirect both standard output and standard error and then try to read both, for example using the following C# code.
[C#]
string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
string error = p.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
p.WaitForExit();
In this case, if the child process writes any text to standard error it will block the process, because the parent process cannot read from standard error until it has finished reading from standard output. However, the parent process will not read from standard output until the process ends. A recommended solution to this situation is to create two threads so that your application can read the output of each stream on a separate thread.

I am looking for a good COM and .NET interop book.
I have found
* COM and .NET Interoperability by Andrew Troelsen Amazon.com[^]
* .NET and COM: The Complete Interoperability Guide by Adam Nathan Amazon.com[^]
Which one do you recommend?
And why?

I haven't read either but if I had to go by author alone I would go with anything by Troelson.

i thought so to, but couldnt find it - using that search is sometimes like looking for a needle in a haystack.

No, but you can follow these instructions[^] and make the manifest and embedded resource.

An even more complete version than the one David linked to:
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/dotnetvisualstyles.asp[^]
The difference coming in when you are using signed assemblies (since modifying the exe's resources will invalidate the assembly hash the .NET loader will have problems)

I just found this. But in VS.NET 2003 and .NET Framework v1.1 all you have to do is call Application.EnableVisualStyles(); How spiffy is that? 
Found it here:http://radio.weblogs.com/0117167/2002/12/25.html#a20[^]

Oh, right. Sorry Nnamdi... I have to remember that you aren't as fortunate as some of us.;P Although, I was sort of talking to James, since I know that he does have VS.NET 2003.

Or even:
string[] GetAllColorNames()
{
return Enum.GetNames(typeof(KnownColor));
}

Don't you just hate it when that happens? So aggravating.
