RadListBox and RadComboBox controls have been replaced by two brand new controls as of Q2 2010: RadListControl and RadDropDownList. The new controls provide the extensibility options that were currently lacking in the old controls, and offer much better performance, due to the use of virtualization and a new generic data engine, developed for RadGridView.
The Benefits of the new controls
RadDropDownList replaces RadComboBox and will soon offer extended and new auto complete options.
RadListControl replaces RadListBox and offers full virtualization support. It performs far better than both RadListBox and the standard ListBox control when bound to more than 1000 items. Read more in this blog post: Blazing-fast list control. Meet RadListControl for WinForms.
Both controls are easier to use and customize, and will provide better grounds for developing new features faster.
What will happen to the old controls?
The old controls will be supported for at least one year after the release of Q2 2010. Users will nevertheless be encouraged to use the new controls since they address the fundamental shortcomings of the previous controls.
Is upgrading to the new controls easy?
Upgrading from the old to the new controls should be easy and painless, unless you have extended the previous controls with custom functionality. If this is the case, please contact Telerik support and we will help you move to the new versions. We will also provide an automatic upgrade tool with Q2 2010 SP1.
Videos and instructions on how to upgrade from the old versions to the new ones will be posted shortly.
How do I get support for the new controls?
To get technical support, either contact Telerik support or post in the DropDownList and ListControl Forum.

Hello telerik team,
I am currenty testing your platform (RadControls for win forms versino 2009.2.9.701) in order to decide whether to use your controls at our company. I have question regarding localization of datagridview. I am using RadGridLocalizationProvider to provide localized strings and I can't find RadGridStringId enumeration values for following strings:
conditional formatting > group box "rule aplies on"
conditional formatting > strings in combo box type > for example is not equal to [Value1]
conditional formatting > format property list box > for example "RowForeColor"

I am implementing telerik's radschedular and loading resources in it with grouping functionality.
i have multiple docotrs and i want to distingvished their data by different colors.
Is there any mapping field for colors in ResourceMappingInfo class to map colors from resources object
for better understanding i m attaching some part of my code over here
For i As Integer = 0 To resourceNames.Length - 1
Resources.Add(New PanaceaBuisnessLayer.AppointmentResource(resourceNames(i), i + 1))
Resources(0).Color = Color.Black
Resources(1).Color = Color.Red
Next i
Dim resourceMappingInfo As New ResourceMappingInfo()
resourceMappingInfo.Id = "Id"
resourceMappingInfo.Name = "Name"
resourceMappingInfo.Color= ??????
dataSource.ResourceProvider.Mapping = resourceMappingInfo
dataSource.ResourceProvider.DataSource = Resources
RadSchdAppView.GroupType = GroupType.Resource
RadSchdAppView.DataSource = dataSource

Hello,
I come to you because I meet a special behavior with the Pageview with viewMode set at Explorer bar.
This code resize the pageview at the loading of the form in order to have no scroll and autosize the pageview following pages extanted or not
The main aim is to stop the number of extanded pages at 2. If 2 are extanded and you extand one more, it's cancelled.
I've uploaded an example solution on a private ftp. Please take it there:
Solution
Simply launch it, extand the first page, the second, then the 3rd.
You'll see the pages are displayed in a weird way, and this is occurring only if you cancel on the last Page.
(wrongDisplay.jpg attached)
if you collapse all, and extand 1, 3 then 2, 2 is correctly stopped and display is good. (goodDisplay.jpg attached)
Do you have any workaround for that? because it's really important in my application and tons of users are meeting this behavior.
Thanks a lot for your lights
Regards

I am using Telerik RadTreeView. I have 2 treeviews on my page. I want to assign the checked nodes from the first Treeview to a Node in the Second TreeView. I dont get a event that will capture the 2nd treeview's node i.e the node that we want to drop onto. Some sample code will be useful.
Thanks in Advance.

I noticed a few issues with the DropDownList control.
1) When using HTML, if the DropDownList's DropDownStyle is set to DropDown, the HTML source is displayed as the text. See the attached screenshot for an example of this.
2) When using autocomplete, I cannot get the autocomplete to work on part of the item (the first part is a number) and have it select the item appropriately based on the value. It doesn't seem like it works. Again, see the second screenshot. Here's a code snippet:
