• .NET Development Best provider for oracle 9i

  hi Please tell me what is best Provider for connect to oracle or a dll like SqlHelper Each has it's own advantages. The Oracle providers generally have more features while the Microsoft providers for Oracle generally tend to be more reliable. Oracle also tends to support their drivers and providers for a longer period of time. For example, Oracle continues to support and update both their ODBC driver and OLEDB provider, while Microsoft no longer supports their ODBC driver and OLEDB provider for Oracle. With respect to .NET, if you need certain features that are not present in Microsoft's .NET library for Oracle then I would use Oracle's ODP.NET if you're working with the 9i client or higher.

• Visual C# C# Visual Studio User Control Designer Bug

  Does anyone else have this problem I am using Visual Studio 2005 Professional, Service Pack 1 is installed just for information. This happens in all my controls, but only for labels. I have my labels in the designer partial class as internal, so I can refer to them in code from my client controller (parent object that does the displaying). Also my labels are in a seperate region called Controls in the designer. Just to give all the information. If I build and keep the designer closed, I can modify the code and everything works.
