An interesting question that we frequently are being asked is: How to create a calendar report? Generally, the requirement is to create a report showing appointments and bookings just as in a month planner calendar/scheduler.
When you think about it, tracking tasks and events when displayed in a calendar is instant - the users have all the information they need into a well known layout that allows to easily analyze tasks and projects. It is no wonder that our clients request this type of report.
The easiest way to prepare a dynamic calendar report is to utilize our flexible crosstab/table/list item.
Due to the...

This post is number two in a three part series about memory consumption for web applications in general. Click here to read the first post. Memory leak examples In this post, we will look at different examples of leaks. The examples presented are as close as possible to real situations. Their purpose is to present several patterns that usually cause memory leaks. A way to manage the leakage is given along with the examples. The examples rely on the use of the ASP.NET AJAX Framework. Let’s start with a simple example of attaching a click event to a button element: Attaching event handlers HTML: <form id="form1" runat="server"> <asp:ScriptManager ID="theScriptManager" runat="server" /> <div id="buttonContainer"> ...
With the release of RadControls for WinForms Q1 2011 SP1, we officially completed the Q1 2011 release, and it is time to pave our way towards Q2 2011. The first thing we did, of course, was to schedule the tasks for the release and we think that it is time to share our plans for Q2 2011. Among all the goodies that the new release will feature, the most important are two new controls: Property Grid. This powerful control will provide a sophisticated Visual Studio-style property grid, and will allow for theming and customizations. Developers will be able to easily create...
A customer of ours faced a very interesting issue we were able to solve earlier today. The problem was that when Visual Studio run under the context of his account, all the Telerik VSExtensions were available in the Extension Manager. On the other hand, when Visual Studio run as a different user, the Telerik WebUI VSExtensions were missing. The problem is very likely to happen if you run Visual Studio under different accounts to test your applications with limited permissions. It happens when you usually install the Telerik VSExtensions through the installer and you decide to install a newer version through the Extension Manager: The...

A week after the official release of RadTimeBar for Silverlight and WPF with the Q1 2011 SP1 release, we have some fresh new resources ready for you to watch to start getting the hang of working with RadTimeBar and integration with other RadControls.
