Visual Studio :: Duplicate Controls Under Tabs In Toolbox?
Jan 19, 2010
My toolbox has begun filling up with duplicates of the controls. A set of controls under a standard tab may be repeated as many as two dozen times. This is driving me crazy. I tried reseting the toolbox (which required me to reinstall the two cusom tabs I had), but that only reduced the number of duplicates--it didn't entirely eliminate them. Also, I keep getting a strange, orphan tab created with the label "#13119" . It has no controls, and I can't delete it, and it didn't go away when I reset the toolbox. It almost seems like it's adding another set of controls every time I open Visual Studio, or perhaps every time I reopen my project.
Where does a toolbox reset get it's information? I installed Office 2010 Primary Interop Assemblies redistributable on windows 7 using visual studio 2010 professional. Not 100% sure if it's the culprit but now my visual studio 2010 toolbox reset only shows the tabs for "Excel Controls", "Word Controls", "Ribbon Editor", "Dialog Editor", etc....
Things tried: reset the toolbox and view all and it still only shows these. I can create a new tab and manually add in the tab with items like DataSet so they are there.command line reset devenv /setup devenv /resetsettings.I've reset the all settings in "Import and Export Settings Wizard". There's visual studio 2005 on the box and the toolbox is fine and exporting settings from there and importing into vs2010 does nothing.Tried repairing vs2010 to no effect. Logged out of the box as my id and logged in as a different id hoping it was something inmy profile, to no effect.Uninstalled o2010pia.msi via add-remove-programs but the readme says it doesn't remove from the GAC (which is verified).Cannot uninstall particular entries in gac even as admin in vs cmd prompt from gac (required for installer message).
Recently i am working in VS2008 installed in windows xp SP2. In the toolbox i added a new tab and added some third party controls in the toolbox, by using "Choose Item" dialog.. I also added Ajax ToolKit to the tool box. It worked fine and i could drag n drop controls.
But then if i restart VS2008, all the tabs i created and controls in it goes off and disappears ncluding Ajax Toolkit. Each time i restart it, I have to have add those controls newly?
Is this a Bug?? or Is there any solution for this?
I have developed a User Control in inline code model and convert this into dll and try to add it into Visual Studio ToolBox. It shows error "There is no component found in the object.". It is showing actually because i have not added ToolBoxData attribute just before the class declaration, because there is no class declaration in the inline code model. I don't know where i have to add ToolBoxData attribute.

I installed pure components several times and when i use add items to the toolbox, it doesn't show anything, and when visual web starts, it shows me an error message (pure components failed to load).... but the components are checked when i add items or choose items, but they don't show up in the toolbox.
I notice when I create a project the common controls menu which includes the webbrowser control is available. When creating a web application in either vb.net or c# the controls are NOT available. Why is this? How can I get them to appear in my web application. I want to use the webbrowser control in vb.net .
I have vs08 running on window 7 which comes with .net 3.5 SP1. how can I add the new feature that comes with it to my vs08 toolbox. I am assuming sp1 is the same as 3.5 extension.
I have project A, which is a class library project. I compile it and it creates a dll. In my project B which is a web application project, I add a reference to the A.dll, and I click on toolbox and select choose item, navigate to dll, and click on it. The control does not show up on my toolbox. When I right click my toolbox and select "show all", the control is there, but it's grayed out. I have been searching for an answer to this for a couple of days now, nothing changes.
I am trying to use one of the componets of the WPF Toolkit,[URL] but when I look for the component in my Toolbox it's not there, so when I set the Toolbox to ShowAll, the components are listed but they are grayed out. I right click on the Toolbox > Choose Items and look for the component in my list and ensure that the component is selected, but it still shows up as grayed out. If I turn off ShowAll the components are not listed. How do I get these grayed out components available for use?
I have been developing application in Visual Web Developer 2008 Express using ASP.Net and Visual Basic. My problem is finding documentation for each of the various toolbox "Standard" objects and the "properties" for these objects. I have manuals that cover some of the more commonly objects but I am hoping that somewhere there is a manual or website(s) that would provide detailed information on all (or most all) of these objects. Does anyone know of a manual or website that provides this information.
I've realised that the custom controls that I add to the toolbox are lost on restart of Visual Studio 2010 RC 1.Was there a problem that occured during the installation or is it a know bug?I did not encounter this problem with the beta 2.
