Outlook Style Grouped List Control - The Code Project - C# Controls

Since .NET was first released, Riaan Hanekom’s been itching to write his own collection of data structures and algorithms. This is an attempt at providing a reusable, generic collection of data structures and algorithms for use in .NET 2.0 and beyond. This article will not provide all the details and full descriptions of the inner workings of these collections and algorithms - rather, it will provide links to resources available on the web (there is no sense in trying to beat Wikipedia) and provide points of interest on this specific implementation.

"Here’s one way to implement a search, similar to Google’s, if you don’t want to (or can’t) use full text indexing. This allows you to pass a string of words, and indicate that either ALL words must match, ANY must match, or the exact string must match."

It is useful to read the comments about collation errors etc.

"Shell Glue is a Windows Explorer Shell Extension, more specifically to add context menu items to files and folders. What menu items and sub items are added to the context menu is controlled through a configuration file.
