• Windows Forms ComboBox filling available space in toolstripbar

  Hello, I updated my application to .NET2 and replaced the old toolbars by toolstripbars. My application does contain an addressbar similar to that  of Internet Explorer with some buttons left and some right of the combobar. The right buttons are right-aligned and are automatically positioned at the right border at runtime. I now want to fill the space between the left and the right buttons with my combobar. But when sizing the combobar in ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) LINQ Preview removes Refactor from VS context menu?

  For some reason the Refactor item disappeared from the context menu that appears when you right-click in the Visual Studio editor. I'm guessing that this was a result of me installing the new LINQ Preview today. Uninstalling the LINQ Preview did not restore the menu item. I had to do a "repair" of Visual Studio to get it back (always a time consuming and fun process). Try the solution in this thre ...Show All

Just moving the cursor to another row on the datagrid has a notic ...Show All
