    RadControls for WinForms Roadmap: Check. Q1 2011 Released: Check.

    We are proud to announce the first major release of RadControls for WinForms for this year, where we worked towards expanding and optimizing the whole suite. To start off, I can say that we introduced a fully refurbished RadTreeView control with new UI and data layers which allow it to bind several times faster!

    Rethinking Agile Methodologies Part II: Scrum, but

    See also: ·         Part I:  How I started to use Scrum In the last post, we looked at how I got into Agile and Scrum. Today we will take a look at how I started to break the rules. After reading the Agile books by Ken Schwaber and obtaining my Certified ScrumMaster credential, I doubled down on Scrum at my start-up since it was working so well.  As things progressed and our business evolved, I started to bump up against the “rules” of Scrum. As I mentioned last week in Part I, the guidance was to only use Scrum locally, not with offshore developers several time zones ahead.  I was also breaking many other “rules”...

    Run Your Telerik Reports in the Cloud and Export Them to Word, PowerPoint & Excel 2007+

Native support for the Office Open XML standard means a couple of important things: Firstly, we are not simply exporting an image of the report,...
