ok it has to do with the anchoring properties... I noticed that it is resizing the controls (even in run mode)...so i have determined that no matter what size i set the controls to, it will reduce it by some factor, making all the controls on all the tabs (that are anchored) much smaller than...

this is just wierd.... i have a splitter control on tab 2, a grid and a scheduler control on tab 3..... looks fine...i save it....close the form...reopen the form, and the controls are all resized and moved around on me....and not for the better. wierd thing is that when i run the app, the...

ah....i was unaware of that (setting to nothing). thanks a million....will be very useful in the future. cheers.

well, that did make things very painless...worked just as expected! however, it does bring an argument regarding how the table adapter and/or table work... so i have two date fields. i would like to be able to insert null into these two fields under a certain circumstance. the database...

oh, and hope you and your family werent too badly affected by the flooding in the land down under....simply amazing and disasterous the amount of flooding down there. prayers go out to you all....

yep...that was kinda my conclusion after thinking about it for a while. if i am to have a dataset that doesn't crap out every time i add a field or update a query, then the only reasonable conclusion is to make the default command come from the single table. i did find the the designer code...

by the way VS 2008 vb application on windows 7.....if it helps

hi all, i have a table adapter that i need to modify. the default command is one that combines multiple tables. a secdondary command is just the table. the problem is, that when i try and add one more field, it wants to rearrange the fields...i have a field "costcode", and it adds another...

oops, my bad....there is NO click event on monthcalendar i had my code where it was handling the datechanged event, not the date selected event. this actually makes a little bit of sense...each minute, the datetime changes, and fires this event? i guess this is this expected behavior? i did...

hi all, i have a monthcalendar control on a form, and about every minute or so, the click event fires. this is wierd, since i look at the call stack and nothing called it. has anyone seen this problem before?

ok, i think i got it..... here is my solution (found and modified from microsoft forum) created a new class file in the MY namespace: Friend Class PleaseWait Implements IDisposable Private mProgress As frmProgressBar Public Sub New() 'mLocation =...

not main form this is well after the app loads. one particular screen takes a long time, which is why i want to just pop up a form with a marquee "progress bar", just showing that the app is doing something. thx again

hi all, i have a form that takes a long time to open (because of the volume of data and the devexpress scheduler controls on it). I would like to pop up a progress bar (embedded in a form) to show until the form loads and is finished loading. i added two public methods in the My.MyApplication...

Hi all, I am using a monthcalendar control in my application to allow a user to select a day from the calendar that will load data for that day. the background is totally white (ugh). there is a backcolor property, but when i set it to say Cyan (yea right), the calendar still displays as...

there we go... that did it. not sure why it is turned of by default in this version of vs, but thanks! g

no configuration manager that's wierd...there is NO configuration manager on the build menu. i see no way to switch between a release and debug build. is this somehitn specific to the team system, that they dont expect you to be doing final release with this version? geo

hi, i used to be running the vs2008 standard edition. my company gave me the vs2008 team edition and a windows 7 installation. i used to have this toolbar dropdown that let me easily switch between release and debug configuration. in the team system environment, i am having a lot of...

hi all, i had to wipe my development machine due to malware. now, i have re-installed everything, and all my projects are running again. however, all i could find is the netsetup for visual sourcesafe 6. i installed it, and can run it (and access my ss database on the server), but... there...

i am importing a csv file into my app. this is to let the users pull in info they have in excel. somehow, they have slanted apostrophes, and not tick marks. so when i open the file stream and do the import, it pulls in those characters as blank boxes (unknown char). is there a way to...

hi all, i have a dataset in my application (vb.net2008) that has a parent table with some child tables linked with a relationship. i would like to be able to open the form in "new" mode, and allow the user to create the whole dataset, and hit the save button once, but this isn't working for...
