Release

RadGridView is no longer beta: RadChart joined the party: And the very first version of RadEditor is out: Stay tuned – more detailed info will come!...

This week the latest version of the RadControls for WinForms were released by Telerik.  This release features some important changes that you will want to check out.  The release notes provide a full list of all the changes, but I wanted to point out some key features.

Although memory management has been given a nice upgrade, the rest is not too exciting, because we will release the same old RadDockingManager, with a facelift. The exciting...

Q1 2009 will be a milestone release for Telerik’s .NET Reporting tool as it introduces a new instrument for data analysis - cross tabs. Cross tabs display data in a matrix format, and are used to present and analyze the relationship between two or more variables.
