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 installed the Visual Web Developer 2008 Express on my Windows XP, I also install the SP1. But somehow all the tool box items in the ToolBox are grayed out and I cannot access them,
I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition on Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 and when I am editing Visual Basic and want to add an item to the toolbox I click on Choose Items... and from that point I can't find important controls (items) like Windows Media Player or Adobe PDF Viewer. I have tried to reinstall and reset the toolbox and program. I can't find this problem anywhere in the web
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 opened an existing VB WINFORM Project on Sunday that I had been working with on Friday, but now the toolbox only showed REPORTING and Visual basic PowerPacks.I had not added or changed the toolbox since I used it on Friday (in fact there have been no changes for a long time....if ever).I tried running "devenv /installvstemplates" and "devenv /resetskippkgs" but they didn't fix it.If I do a "Show All" on the toolbox, a Standard heading shows, but all controls (Label, Textbox, Button, etc) are grayed out
I have a few questions regarding the "special" ASP.NET folders in Visual Studio web projects.
Adding an App_Data folder in Visual Studio is present, but grayed out in my C# web project, why? What are the meanings of the various ASP.NET "special" folders?
App_GlobalResources App_LocalResources App_Data App_Browsers Themes - I know this is used to contain stylesheets for a particular theme and is then specified in the web.config or page (if I remember right). App_Code - Were these classes that were pre-compiled? Do these ASP.NET folders retain their special meaning if you manually create a folder with the same name instead using the "Add ASP.NET Folder" feature in Visual Studio?
I'm trying to build a Pivottable on a webform in vb.net 2005 using OWC. I have added the Pivottable item to the toolbox, but it is grayed out and so I cant use it. If I develop a Winform instead of a Webform then the toolbox items are there and work correctly.
I am using VS 2010, just downloaded the Ajax Control Toolkit Binaries, have got not wireless mouse (even I tried to unplug my mouse - no success -) and I have tried deleting the .tbd files as mentioned
here; but still the Ajax control toolkit controls are grayed out and disabled!
I have tried the following also:
1. creating a new webite.
2. changing the target .NET framework from 4.0 to 3.5 and vice versa.
According to the above article you "Unblock" the zip file and then unzip it. You then create a new tab within the toolbox window and add the dll to show and use the toolbox items. However when I do that I'm getting the following:
i was trying to build a basic web form using labels and textboxes but in my tool box i couldnt find any tools can some one help me how to configure those tools in the tool box,and also in APP_DATA i couldnt find the option like ADDNEW ITEM i am currently using visual studio 2008 trail versio
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 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.
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.
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.
