Performance of 'is' vs typeof (Reflection) in C#

Stopwatch s = new Stopwatch();
            s.Start();
            for (int i = 0; i < 100000000; i++)
            {
                CNDSegment segment = new CNDSegment();
                if (segment is CNDSegment == false)
                {
                }
            }
            s.Stop();
            Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Time taken by is {0} milliseconds", s.ElapsedMilliseconds));
            s.Reset();
            s.Start();
            for (int i = 0; i < 100000000; i++)
            {
                CNDSegment segment = new CNDSegment();
                if (segment.GetType() != typeof(CNDSegment))
                {
                }
            }
            s.Stop();
            Console.WriteLine(String.Format("Time taken by GetType and typeof method {0} milliseconds", s.ElapsedMilliseconds));

Performance results for 100000000 comparisions
Time taken by is 1338 milliseconds
Time taken by GetType and typeof method 5050 milliseconds

Enable mouse scroll-wheel in VB6

VB6 would let us use the mouse scroll-wheel like later versions of VS does. Here's a add-in for VB6 that I have used that does just that! Download  \ Visual Basic 6\vb6mousewheel\VB6MOU~1   from Microsoft web site ·          Copy the VB6IDEMouseWheelAddin.dll to somewhere on your local machine where it won’t get deleted. I use “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 6”. ·          Click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 \VB6IDEMouseWheelAddin.dll, and then click OK. ·          Start Visual Basic 6.0. ·          Click Add-Ins, and then click Add-in Manager. ·          In the Add-in Manager list, click MouseWheel Fix. ·          Click to select the Loaded/Unloaded check box, and then click to select the Load on Startup check box. ·          Click OK.
