• .NET Development Data controls gone in studio 2005

  I'm a recent convert to visual studio and I was just getting used to the 2003 environment when the office upgraded to 2005. Now I can't find the connection objects in the data toolbox. I found it very handy to drop a sqlDataAdapter and a sqlConnection on a form and use them as my starting point to connect to a database. Now with 2005 the objects don't appear in the toolbox. Am I missing a component somewhere or have they been removed I can still access these objects programmatically but I'm not as proficient with them that way. the binding model has changed dramatically , for the better I might add!

• .NET Development My programs won't start up on Win98 or Win2000

  I've been struggling hard with this for about a month.  I have a program written in C# .Net 1.1, that has about 170,000 lines of code and is in daily use by thousands of users.  Any version that I released after about 9/1/05 simply fails to start up at all on Win98 or Win2000.   "An unhandled exception has occurred", followed by thread id, but absolutely none of the usual details.  Keep in mind that it continues to work flawlessly on WinXP, and it always worked flawlessley on Win98/2k until one month ago.  The problem does not affect previously compiled versions, only those which I compiled after that ...Show All
