• Visual Studio How to logon to a database programmatically. vs2005

  I have a web report (without a datasource) with two different subreports. The subreports are each based on a different stored procedure.

• Windows Forms Data change not being saved if control not exited before clicking Save button

  How do I get my form to update a record if I only edit data in one control (say a textbox), then click the Save button that I added to the BindingNavigator As I haven't tabbed out of the textbox, the validation event doesn't fire and so the BindingSource doesn’t pass on the changes I made. If I tab out of the control first and then click Save it works fine. My code is: Private Sub UspWorkOrderBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal se ...Show All

  Hello! When I create a partial class for my form the "View Designer" button is shown for my partial class.
