• KjellSJ .Net 2.0 and Windows Form Non Client Paint override

  Hi all, I'm investigating some of the Windows Forms Non Client painting overrides capabilities and it seems that regarding this the .Net 2.0 comes with some basic useful tools and managed classes. I'm playing with some code I found around using some dllimports and catching WM_NCPAINT messages in a WndProc's NativeWindow method that I use to subclass a base form. Still, I can't seem to make what I want: I'd like to create a skin making benefits o ...Show All

• Mehmet Atlihan The v2 DatePicker doesn't support null databinding (bug?)

  The following code (which is a simple test windows form - visual studio team 2005 system beta 3 refresh) demonstrates what I believe is a bug in the DatePicker control.

This is a real pain; and, frankly, makes the date picker useless to bind to database-derived datatables w ...Show All
