• Visual Studio Team System Error when creating new Team Project

  I've worked through several resources onlnine to fix other errors in the project creation process and have just about got the New Team Project option working from Visula Studio, however I'm running into an error I can't find a solution for.

• Windows Forms calc needed size of DataGridView

  Hi, I want to size the DataGridView based on the number of rows up to a maximum size. So I watch the data source and when the number of records changes, I recalculate the size of the grid. So far so good, but I do not seem to get the right size... I tried this: int height = this .gridView.Top + this .gridView.ColumnHeadersHeight + (rowHeight) * rowCount; But I seem to struggle with the right value for rowHeight, I tried ( RowTemplate.Height+2) which works fine for TextBoxColumns, so the grid is sized correctly without scroll bars. But if another column type is added to the grid, e.g. ComboBoxColumn, the calculated size is too small. ...Show All

  I am getting an initialization exception when I instantiate SQLConnection. The exception occurs emediately upon creating an instance and does not depend on whether I supply a connection string for the constructor.

The computer giving the exception has .Net 2.0 installed from the redistributable which I downloaded from MS on Thursday. This is happening before I set any properties or do anything else with the new connection. Any ideas Jake Wagner Ok, there was no app ...Show All
