  Hi Everyone, I forgot to ask this question... is there a way to set clickable areas of the form without a picturebox or button If there is, how do you find out or determine where on the screen the pointer is when you set up the points I tried to turn the GRID feature on but it never works.

• Visual Studio Team System Unplanned work report incorrect

  For some reason or another, the "Unplanned Work" report (MSF Agile 4.0) is not displaying properly. I set the plan completion date to a date somewhere in the middle of the project lifetime, click on the view report and only see "Planned" work items even though work items were created after the "Plan completion date".

• .NET Development How to set DefaultValue property for a DateTime data column in VS.NET designer

  Hi all... I have a database that has a table with a column of DateTime type that cannot be null, but has a default value of getdate() (SQL Server function call).

When I INSERT a row in the database, an exception occurs because I cannot insert NULL into that non-null DateTime column. I saw in the designer that column has a DefaultValue property already set as <DBNull>. How can I set that property to the current system date I tried System.DateTime.Today ...Show All
