• Windows Forms DataGridView Object Data Sources

  Hi All, I have tried to use a datagridview in a windows form  to render a list of wine objects.  The wine object contains a Region Object.  I want the datagridview to to display two columns, Wine.Name and Region.Name.  I have created a BindingList of Wine objects which is then bound to a datagridview.  Using autogenerated columns, the Region.Name column renders as just its type name - not the data...

• Visual Studio Team System Permission denied when creating new team build

• .NET Development What's a good way to add record to an xml file

  Would anyone help me about "How to add record to an xml file" I could add ONLY one record to it using Serialization, but that record will be updated by updating or creating a new instance of the serialized object, i want it to be added to xml file like a log file for exmple. Woth tahnk. Howdy... why don't you look at creating an object collection that contains your 'record' object. Just serialise and de-serialise as required, adding and removing from the collection. Just remeber to add the XmlInclude attrib for both your object type and objectcollection type. Give me a yell if you need some code for it. Che ...Show All

• Windows Forms Let's kill a PDF!!!

• Visual C# Define Name in Excel through C# code

  Hello,       I have a code to import Excel Sheet into an .NET application through OLEDB connectivity provided if my excel sheet is defined as a table with a name by going through Insert-->Define-->Name. But I want to automate this option through code by simply selecting the excel sheet and it  would define the range and then import the data.

• Visual C# Reading a Log and Extracting Data

  Using C# or VB.NET Ok here is my situation. I have a text document that I extracted from another program with lots of raw data.

• Visual C++ How to interrupt a continuous plot?

  I am using visual C++ 6.0 to program a data acquisition system. I am continously plotting data within a loop but am unable to access the file menu (or any menu) during the plot.
