• Visual Studio Walkthrough on class designer

  I can't find a good walkthrough on using the class designer.  The library has lots of How Tos but they are circular and never show an in depth example of using the designer to create a new class or module or any of the other choices.  I looked at the channel 9 programs but a walkthrough is much more useful.  Can anybody point me to an in depth article or walkthrough dennist Your references should keep me busy for quite a while.  Thanks for your help. dennist ...Show All

  I was NOT using data source till now. I was directly using Ole DB Connection. Everything works as expected. Today, I created a new Data Source based on the existing Ole Db connection. I changed my tasks to use this Data Source. Now, everytime I open the dtsx file, a screen pops-up with title "Synchronize Connection Strings".

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Question about templating a ScrollBar

  From examining the default template in the SDK, it seems that a ScrollBar template works something like this: There are two RepeatButtons bound to LineUpCommand and LineDownCommand. Then there is a Track control between them which must have the name PART_Track. The Track itself is composed of three controls, two RepeatButtons (for page up/page down) and a Thumb. Those three controls are styled through the properties Track.DecreaseRepeatButtonStyle, Track.IncreaseRepeatButtonStyle and Track.ThumbStyle. My question is, how do I change the template of the Track Let's say I want to replace the thumb with something else. What bindings do I have ...Show All
