• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) GroupBox "off-by-one" Bug?

  I noticed that when I started nesting GroupBoxes inside Grids, sometimes the bottom-edge and/or the right-edge of the groupbox wouldn't be drawn, it looks like they are beeing clipped because they end up just outside the area for the groupbox. (this doesn't happen if the groupbox isn't inside a grid, and also it seems more prone to happen in different quadrants in the grid).Try the following xaml, and adjust the size of the window: < Window x:Class = " WPF .Window1 " xmlns = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation " xmlns:x = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml " Title = " WPF " Height = " 330 " Width = " 507 " > ...Show All

• Windows Forms User control in designer

  Hi, Can anyone tell me what is the user control life cycle when its dropped in to a visual studio designer I mean, I have a new windows application project created in visual studio 2005 and a new form added.

• Visual C# TreeNode Tag problem

  I am having some problems with a TreeView control, the thing is that I have populated a tree with nodes an attached different objects to the different nodes using the Tag property. My problem is that when the user clicks the nodes, different things is supposed to happen depending on which type of node is clicked. How can I determine which object is embedded in the nodes Tag when the select event is triggered Regards, Peter Larsson! You could implement a interface for all your tag objects, and then in your click event handler you cast the tag object to that interface and call a method on the interface and let the different implementations of the tag objects do what needs to be done. ...Show All

• SQL Server Report export to Excel

  Hi, I need to export various reports created using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services to ONE Excel workbook (with multiple work sheets - tabs - one for each report). Is there an option in Reporting services that can allow me that Thanks. If you need to "combine" other reports into a single report, create a new Report, add a rectangle with a subreport for each other report, and set PageBreakOnEnd for the rectangles.
