  Somewhere in the Help I happened to notice that ToolTips can be customized to show multiline text. Now, when I need it, I can't find the appropriate help text. How can this be done Thanks for the answers! It was just too obvious for me to see. Now I have implemented a version that matches my needs; I just set the controls ToolTipText = "This is a" & Environment.NewLine & "multiline tooltip" ...Show All

• .NET Development System.Net.Sockets.Socket bad design?

P.S. Who designed this text editor it's bad.        We do support that.

There is always the overhead of CLR and managed code. Your perf numbers depend on what you are really doing. If you want to complain a ...Show All

I can't discuss the details of our implemetnation online but I would like to suggest a few things. 1- Being able to automatically map an entity to a table while still being able to exclude a few of the fields from being stored... (they may be calculated or even be UI centric) 2- Being able to have an ID inner class that would be stored flat in the database. That allows for the ID class to implement the IComparable for sorting purposes. 3- We have also found that it is important (in hierarchies) to manage the numb ...Show All
