• Windows Forms Setting DatagridView column type as Combo after databind

  Hi, We’re using a datagridview in our winforms prj .. Problem is this .. We have a grid say with 10 columns .. 3 columns are combo’s. ways to go about it are .. 1. set the column heading and column type at design time .. retrieve the records then databind. But in this case .. a new set of columns will be created. In this scenario, is there a way where I can set the column type of the datagrid view to a datagridviewcombobox column after I do the databind 2. Have a blank Gridview.Retrieve the records and bind the table to the gridview. Here again I face the same problem. In this scenario, is there a way where I can set t ...Show All

• Visual Basic Access Form in Code from a User Control

  I have created a UserControl1 that inherits from the Visual Basic.Net 2005 TextBox Control. A Windows Application Project is then created (named WindowsApplication1) and the UserControl1 is dragged onto Form1 of WindowsApplication1. Question: In the code of User Control how is Form1 accessed In particular, it is desired to place some graphics on Form1 from code in UserControl1. Thanks for any response... Forgive me if I am telling you something that you already know, but I believe that the proper technique is to access UserControl1 from Form1, instead of the other way around as you are sug ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Testing for Exceptions in Unit Tests

  I can't figure out how to test for an exception in a unit test.  Is there an Assert. comand or something else to test for an expected exception Thanks! Cindy Hello, I just saw this as well. Dhopton, you are correct in stating that you shouldn't throw a generic exception. But I think a lot of folks think that if you give throw with a new message string in the exception, that will make the exception different enough. So, did this feature get into the final release It doesn't look like it. I am useing the VS demo build, 50727.42 and I am seeing the same error message from the unit test, " has ...Show All

  My application works fine on my development machines which already have the Framework installed, but trusting the prequestite feature to install the framework or Windows Installer on machines which need the pre-req. install fails. The browser reports CGI Error: The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are: (...with no more info...) I've had no look in searching the solution that applies to my situation.

• Visual Studio IDE facility to suppress some debug notification messages missing in B2?

  I felt sure that B1 had options to suppress some of the notification messages (such as loading DLLs, thread exit status, etc) that you often see in the Output pane when debugging. I can't find these options in B2. Did they ever exist (do they now ) or have I imagined them We moved these options to a different location. In Beta 1, they were in Tools->Options->Debugging->General. In B2, we moved these to the context menu of the Output window. In order to suppress any of these messages, right-click the Output window and uncheck any of the options. The main reason for moving these options was to i) red ...Show All
