NHunspellTextBoxExtender - A Spellchecking IExtenderProvider for TextBoxes using Hunspell for .NET

With many applications, spell checking can be a vital aspect to include. Most people are accustomed to the spell checking capabilities of products like Microsoft Word or OpenOffice. There are products available for purchase that can add spell checking capability, such as SharpSpell that can cost hundreds of dollars. Unfortunately, there is a lack of Open Source, freely available tools that can provide the functionality of Microsoft Word. That is why I began to work on a spell checking IExtenderProvider that could extend any control that inherits TextBoxBase (both TextBox and RichTextBox inherit TextBoxBase).

How to Access and Encrypt Your Files via Windows Forms

The purpose of this article is demonstrate how to build a Windows Forms application that encrypts files through the use of the RijndaelManaged class, a symmetric algorithm, which is used to encrypt and decrypt data by using its automatically generated Key and IV. Encryption involves the creation of a cipher (an algorithm) that takes data and a generated key as its input. The algorithm will behave in accordance with the length of the key. A symmetric algorithm is one that uses the same key to both decrypt and encrypt the data file. In our case, we will use the RSACryptoServiceProvider, an asymmetric algorithm, to encrypt and decrypt the key to the data encrypted by RijndaelManaged…
