Jeffrey S. Gangel has provided an XmlReader type class that sits on top of an images EXIF data.  Personally I have have still not made the leap to preferring XML over an O.O. interface but this is at least a case where it begins to make some sense to me.  Check out the Photo Properties Library and App on GotDotNet.

Well, it didn't take long.  Dominic Cooney has provided Serialization support for the Compact Framework.  I am not sure of the compatibility with Microsoft's desktop version but since he provides a desktop version as well I am guessing his implementation is not compatible with Microsoft's.  Below is the project description:

"The Pickle framework is a lightweight replacement for the .NET Framework's serialization facility. Pickle is designed to act as a substitute for serialization on the .NET Compact Framework. Pickle may also be useful for Web-deployed .NET user controls and applications, because it does not require the SerializationFormatter permission. Pickle preserves the object reference graph."

Non-Breaking Spaces in Word
Google Search It

Wow.... it is not everyday you learn a new trick about Word.  This morning, however, the ElementKtips had one for me.

"To insert a nonbreaking space, press [Ctrl][Shift][Spacebar]. The text on either side of the nonbreaking space will always stay together on the same line. When the Show/Hide ¶ button on the Standard toolbar is turned on, nonbreaking spaces are designated by a display character resembling the degree symbol (°). However, this display character is hidden when you print your document or view it in Print Preview mode.

To insert a nonbreaking hyphen, press [Ctrl][Shift][-] using the standard keyboard. (Using the [-] key on the numeric keypad inserts an en dash instead.) The text on either side of the nonbreaking hyphen will always stay together on the same line. When you're viewing your document onscreen, nonbreaking hyphens are designated by a display character that resembles an en dash (-). However, this display character looks just like a standard hyphen when you print your document or view it in Print Preview mode."
