The GridView control is a very powerful and scalable .net control. You use it inside some application to list entites. However , there is a disadvantage when you want to use the Paging implementation : you must systematically bind the gridview with a select of all data when you change the index to see the other pages. So Imagine that you must work with a datasource with 400 000 records : the postback is expensive , the treatment is not optimized....

I decided to create a new ComboBox based on requests of users of MSDN Windows Forms forum. It adds a new property to the regular ComboBox so it can be set to Read-Only, much like the regular TextBoxes. I made this code pretty straightforward so all you have to do is download the cs file enclosed in the ZIP file above and add it to your project. Build it and the ExComboBox should be available on the ToolBox. You can change the way the disabled button looks by commenting the ComboBoxRenderer line ...

Consider we have some "Data class" in our application and we want the data class to act as a collection, Generally what we do is declare a "Generic List" (New feature in 2.0) of that data class type and populate our data list from the database. For populating the list, we loop through the data class with customized code and add the class to our list collection. This will be tedious and time consumi...

It extends the ListView control and adds an EnsureVisible method to scroll horizontally to a subitem. I often use The Code Project to find good samples, but I didn't find one for this.

Having spent two years dabbling with C# ASP.NET programming, I have picked up countless insights, many of which I always wish I had a chance to write down and share, for my benefit as much as for others, as I often forget a few months down the line what it is that actually got me wanting to write something down in the first place. In the end, though, I never have the time or the inclination, or it would just take too long to explain the background behind the insight to make it worth the effort....

Every now and then someone on a forum asks about rendering video or DirectX or OpenGL to a ListView background. Most often, they are shot down by an emphatic "impossible" unless the user is open to overlays. Overlays quietly disappeared in Vista Aero. This is what crippled the wallpaper modes of the video players VLC and BSPlayer. It also happened to cripple a slick ListView I used on some Quadro cards to render some background underlays. This control implements ListView the way it was meant to ...
