• Windows Forms DataGridView - slow

  Hi, this DataGridView is really giving me headaches like you can see in all the topics I start :) This time it's about performance. I'm using a DataBound DataGridView and performance for painting on it, etc. is good as long as it contains no data :) However, as soon as I load 10 columns in it with about 200 rows, performance really drops. Resizing the form that contains the grid becomes real slow even with column auto size off. Painting selection rectangle over columns becomes real laggy, etc. Anybody got some ideas why this could be the case Or is that "to be expected" Thanks, Tom   MortenFraMoss w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Does ReportViewer cache results?

  I've created a multiview with two views. The first view has two date parameter fields and a submit button. When the dates are populated and the button pressed, the ObjectDatasource gets the data from a stored procedure and populates the reportviewer in the second view. After this first execution, the report keeps displaying the same data whatever dates I put in as parameters. The code for to get the data from the object data source is not being executed after the first time. And I ran Profiler..the stored procedure isn't being executed. I have EnableCaching = False on the ObjectDataSource. I would like the report to be populated ...Show All

• SQL Server Index was outside the bounds of the array

  Ok, all I did was to create a new report, new dataset, hook it up to a simple stored proc. I can run that dataset fine and see the date in the Data tab. I go to the layout tab, throw on a textbox...or even try dragging in a field from the dataset tab, then try to preview and get the error "Index was outside the bounds of the array" what is it talking about, what array, what index the dataset this time doesn't appear to be a cache issue, it's simply not liking GroupName = 'Arizona' as a field in the dataset and crashes when trying to use that in the chart.

• Windows Forms Interfacing with ID card printer

  Hello, I'm currently writing an application to produce plastic ID cards, using a Datacard SP55 magnetic card printer. Regular printing works fine using the PrintDocument class, but to encode the magnetic stripe on the card, I need to print text using a special device font called "Track 1". After doing some research, I have discovered that device fonts can not be used directly with GDI+ printing as in .NET. Does anyone know the easiest way to print a single text string in a device font to the printer, without redoing the entire printing with P/Invoke and Win32 API Answers are greatly appreciated! ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Smart indenting not working right

  Hello, I have visual C++ 2005 express and the first thing I notice is the smart indenting. When I turn it on it indents corectly and everything but if I return down from a line of code (so there are blank lines between the cursor and my code) and than I go back and click a blank line, the line will go to the very left like there was never a tab inserted. Is there a way to fix this or is this just what visual C++ 2005 express does Hi,   When returning down, the caret on the new line is set to align with the previous line of code, but spaces or tabs are not actually appended to the line until yo ...Show All
