Remove Multiple/Duplicate Calendar Entries on Android

I am using ZTE Android 2.3 and one problem with my Calendar is that it has duplicate calendar entries, some items are even repeated 4 to 5 times, and this makes my Calendar hard to use. I found a way to solve this:

Settings > Applications > Manage applications > All > Calendar storage > Clear data... Then please try syncing again.

This works perfect for me!

[Update on 2014-03-05] For latest Android versions, for example 4.4, the path is a little different.
Settings > Apps > All > Calendar > Clear data..
But sorry I didn't have the problem in Android 4.4, I didn't test it. If you met the problem, you can try the path above.

Schedule or Delay Sending an Email

I was wondering that whether Microsoft Outlook supports the feature that it can support delay sending an email, and today I know it has. It's really a good product.

Steps:

1. In the message, click Options.
2. Click Delay Delivery, and then click the delivery date and time you want.
3. If you don't want to delay the email, you can simply uncheck the checkbox.

Visual Studio Doesn't Load Previous Opened Files

I met a rather strange problem that Visual Studio doesn't reload previous opened files. When I had worked on some files which were opened in Visual Studio, if I save and quit Visual Studio, next time I start the same project, no files would be opened.  I need to go the specific file and manually open it, which is not the normal "Work and Continue" type most of the users have. I searched a lot but there is no available solutions on the web, and below is what I have done to fix it:
1, Find someone who is using Visual Studio and doesn't have this problem
2, Copy the settings of that user in C:\Users\*****\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Settings
3, Paste the settings in your own setting folder, which is the similar path like above

World is peaceful now. Sorry I cannot provide a screenshot because it's working now. :)
