ShapedForm has Dragging and Maximize bugs

ShapedForm shows some strange behaviors running in Windows Vista 32-bit. When maximized, you can still drag it around. After dragging, when you click the Restore button, the window is *not* resized back to the normal size, and it's moved to new location off the screen. It's weirder when you click Maximize button again. The window doesn't span fully on the screen at all, and part of the window often moves off the screen.

To reproduce this in Vista 32-bit, firstly create new SharpedForm, and then add a RibbonBar control. Run it, drag the window around, click Maximize, grab on the RibbonBar title-bar to drag the window around, click Restore and Maximize again.

Regards,

ShapedForm

Rebind Data

I have a form with multiple ComboBoxes, and every time my end user submits the data, I want the ComboBoxes to Rebind to the data and reset to the original settings.

I have tried using "RadComboBox1.Refrest()" but this doesnt seem to help.

They are binding to a DataSet from a DAL.

I have gone as far as to try "Me.Refresh" to refresh the whole form, but this doesnt seem to work either.

Does anyone have any ideas.

GridViewImageColumn

Hi

I don't understand what datatype this column binds to.

I have a collection of objects with a bitmap property, when binding to the grid, nothing is displayed.

What datatype am I suppose to use? Image, Byte() ? I cant seem to find much documentation on this.

Thanks

NET 3.5 - Connect to DB

OK so I am new to both .NET 3.5 and Winforms. I have experience connecting to a db in the web.config file, but when it comes to the app.config, I am having difficulty.

I am trying to populate the ComboBox with data from a Stored Procedure.

Can anyone point me in the right direction, I think I must be close.
