My ViewModel contains a List<> of a class that contains an enum and a Boolean. My XAML displays a multi-select ListBox, showing the localized names of the enum values using a Converter in the View, and binds each ListBoxItem’s IsSelected to the Boolean in the members of the bound List<>. That’s working. Now I want to sort the ListBox items by those localized enum names, without reordering the List<> in the ViewModel. How can this be done?

I’m not sure it can be done directly. The brute force and ignorance way I would tackle it with is to populate another list and sort that (or indeed populate a sorted list).

I’m thinking about transferring to FSU. Also who would they most likely consider: A person with a A.S Degree or A.A Degree & why?

I’m not sure if there is a difference between A.S. and A.A, and now I’m curious about that too. I do know that your GE class credits will most likely transfer as lower division part of B.S. and then you can transfer as a junior!!!!! I’m going to try to transfer too. I found out that you can check what classes transfer by going to the university website you are interested in and find the link for "assist" and you can check.

Whenever i move the file some of the photos and content disappears. Then when i move it back to the original place all the content comes back. So my question is how do I make the file created in dreamweaver into an HTML document that has all the content embeded in it ? Thanks in advance

Anything pointing to an external file has to point to where that file is on the server. IOW, if your images are in the directory /images, an img tag has to be <img src=".images/yourfile.jpg" /> Dreamweaver will do this for you if you maintain the same directory structure on your development computer and on the server. If you move files, you have to change paths manually.

You CAN NOT have a single file with HTML and pictures. HTML is a text file, pictures are picture files. (You can have all your Javascript and CSS in the HTML file - which is a bad idea for a number of reasons.) Your best bet is to trash Dreamweaver (it’s a $400 piece of bloatware that professionals laugh at amateurs for buying) and learn how to write websites, since you’re going to have to be doing some of the work anyway.

Do they have computer programming degree or is it computer science. Do the classes for computer science teach different languages like c++? I’m planning on doing something like game programming

University of Oklahoma offers Computer Science and Computer Engineering. Both degrees are ABET-accredited.

If you want to do game programming, a better degree might be Software Engineering Technology.

Does anyone know what this is? DockPanel? Grid? Canvas?

I think its TabControl

But do I have to get a degree in computer science or should I get another degree ? And if I get a degree in computer science will I learn programming ?

If you get a degree in computer science, you will learn programming. Depending on the requirements for your degree and your interests, you may also learn analysis of algorithms, database analysis and design, data structures, designing graphical user interfaces, network technologies, basic computer hardware, how magnetic and optical media are used to store data, data communications, how compilers work, how operating systems work, computer architecture, computer security, artificial intelligence, software engineering, etc. I suggest looking at the curricula for a bachelor’s in computer science at the colleges you might like to attend, then read the course descriptions. Some course descriptions may make no sense at this point, but they will later.
