• Visual C# Can't "save project as".

  I'm trying to do something pretty simple. I have a large, complex project. I want to save it under a new name, so that I can make changes to it (changes that I wouldn't want to risk screwing up my original project). I cannot for the life of me figure out how to do this in the C# IDE. There seems to be no option. Saving it as a template isn't what I'm looking for. I want to duplicate the project so that the old version is safe, and there se ...Show All

• Windows Forms PropertyGrid & TypeConverter

  I have a PropertyGrid and a list of person in my application. When the user clicks on a person from the list, the properties from that object populate in the PropertyGrid. I got a variable in this object that is CarOwned, which is a Car object. I want the PropertyGrid to show a ComboBox so that the user can specify a car from a list (CarCollection).

• SQL Server What are the current best practices for standardizing report layout and appearance?

  I am accustomed to the Actuate enterprise reporting system in which it is very easy to define reusable page formats that standardize things like page layout, margins, logo placement, page header and footer formatting, etc. You just drag and drop a page layout from your component library to inherit from it, and ensure that all your reports have the same consistent format. What if any features and tools are there to accomplish this in 2005 Reporti ...Show All
