• Windows Forms "C2" format AND Binding

  I have 4 Readonly textboxes bounded to a stored procedure in 4 tableLayoutPanel cells. I can't figure out how to format the Text as "C2" (with $ and 2 decimal places) Any Ideas Thanks! I found a simpler solution (since I needed read only) this .sumByRepTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantFamilyTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; this .sumByRepPlantFamilyMarketTextBox.DataBindings[ "Text" ].FormatString = "C2" ; that made the content show correctly. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Modify Standard Report

  There's several built in reports that use the 'Bug' work item type that we'd like to use on the 'Task' work item type. How do I go about changing this I've tried editing the dsWorkItemHistory dataset to change the query from [Work Item].[System_WorkItemType].[System_WorkItemType].[Bug] to .[Task], but I get told I can't save the changes because I need to use the MDX Query Builder. Nevermind, I was able to make the change directly to the rdl file without messing with the query builder at all. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Custom Control not Appearing

  Hi All I've just created a custom control in VC# (Using Visual Studio Pro). I created it as a Custom Control Library Project. When I compiled the control, everything worked well and the .dll was in the correct directory etc. However, when I created a new Windows App project in C#, the control did not appear in the Controls list. I couldn't find it in the Add New Items list, and when I tried to browse for it, it came up as an incompatable file. The Control works fine when debugged and compiled without any errors or warnings. How do I add the control to the VS Library Thanks! Hi, Could you please try the following link. Hope this helps. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fw694kde.aspx Thank you, Bhanu. ...Show All
