It’s an interesting question that I got from a customer at a conference recently. He was wondering why we entered the Windows Forms space when we were a few years late compared to the other vendors and WPF was knocking on the door.  There were a couple of reasons – we have a passion at Telerik to bring controls to Microsoft developers on whatever platform they are developing on. Also at the time we wanted to take the challenge to create desktop UI components where there was no market for WPF. WPF technology was changing from release to release which lead...

Last Friday we announced the availability of the first service pack of RadControls for WinForms Q3 2007. As always, the service pack fixes many issues that have been reported to Telerik since the Q3 2007 release in December.

Our migration to Team Foundation Server started a couple of months ago with the Source Control adoption. Another step that we performed was to transfer our Countersoft's Gemini bug-tracker projects to TFS Issue Tracking System.

So, I'm posting the code, which helped us migrate our projects. Hopefully someone else can benefit from it too and I can save some of your time up.   Well, there is no rocket science here, but the code, ...

By popular demand, some Telerik web controls such as RadInput behave like inline-block elements, i.e. they do not force new lines on the page and at the same time, they obey width, height and other block-level-specific CSS properties. In addition, RadInput supports a scenario in which several HTML elements (Label, TextBox and a Button) occupy a preset amount of space, without calculating and changing these elements' widths with Javascript on the client. Unfortunately, all these requirements cannot be met with the current browser CSS support and CSS specification. That's why some of the features and functionalities are implemented at the cost of compromising web standards - we use some...
