We're developing a custom control (to make our lives easier), which included a customs (external) grid control and some default buttons and text. The grid control has the option to add columns by clicking the small arrow on the top right of the grid in designer, like shown in the picture.
We want to keep this option when putting our new custom control on a (win)form. Is there any way we can achieve this?
I've already looked into the 'verbs' and I can add my own custom verbs to the new control, but I'm not sure the arrow is a verb (as it does not show the option on the bottom of the properties). I also haven't been able to find how to use the verbs from the grid control.
Thank you very much!
I've found the solution to my problem.
I thought the way to add columns was a custom control when in reality, it was a default CollectionEditor. This, in combination with Smart Tag, solved my problem.

I'm not sure if this is at all possible, but I'd like to be able to 'embed' a CommandBar into an Access 2003 Form.
I'd like to do this because the nature of my application is such that its forms are 'floating' so it doesn't look like it was developed in Access.
I know I can put Command Buttons on the form, which would achieve something similar, but I'd like a way to differentiate between the two types of buttons.
I'll be using it (if it's possible) to have a help menu present on some Forms.
Any ideas would be greatly appriciated!
I managed to achieve a similar effect by placing labels of a different color at the top of the form, then assign custom context menus to appear on left click. This is similar to the code found here:

I'm looking to have a navigation pane on the left side of my form which will change the right side of the form accordingly. I could always use panels and store the controls on the panels but is there a better way to do this? A tab control would be nice but I wouldn't want to see the actual tabs ...
Is there a way to do this?
Edit after seeing the answer:
Dim uc As New UserControl1
Form1.Controls.Add(uc)
Will add everything in the user control to the form1. Alternatively, if I had a Panel, I could do:
Panel1.controls.add(uc)
That would add it to the panel.
You can use panels, but you could also have your panes as UserControls and load them into a single panel instance, or even directly into the form.
Putting them into UserControls also means your form's generated class won't be cluttered with control members.
I would have to agree with #Dai Here is a great thread on it. It explains how to setup the panels in the ide.
I am trying to remove the hover effect that brings up the checkbox next to the row item in SharePoint 2010 list item rows. Is there any settings that can make this happen? I would like to keep away from having to tinker with the CSS and javascripts. Please see illustration below. Thank you.
There are no settings for that sort of thing - the selection check box is a default behavior. You are going to have to modify the CSS, for that.
Use SharePoint Designer (Available Here]1) to help determine whitch CSS elements control that behavior, and make a custom style sheet to override it.
You can accomplish this by going to the Modify View option of your list and unchecking the Allow Individual Item Checkboxes under Tabular View options.
Note: If you are using a Web Part to view it you might have to set the view again for the changes to reflect.
I am trying to edit a specific control part within a custom TabItem Template. In this case, it's the TemplateBottomSelected control part.
I'm having an issue where I cannot seem to view or edit any control parts within the template editor except the default TemplateTopSelected. Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about:
Even though I'm selecting the "TemplateBottomSelected" grid, the only thing I can see is the template for the TemplateTopSelected item.
How the heck do I edit the other control parts within the template using the editor?
Thanks!
that's because these templates are either collapsed or the opacity of them is set to 0. :)
you can use the eye toggle button to only show the one you want to modify at design time, set the visibility to visible, do your changes, and reset it to collapsed.
please let me know if you need more info.
I am trying to add an imagekey to my items and it works fine except that the image
appears on the leftside of the listview in vb.net.
What I am trying to do is have it appear on the right side or in another column,
but I can't seem to do that.
can anyone help?
Thanks

I assume you want to have an image in some other column when the listview is in Detail mode. You can't do that in the standard .NET listview control by default. I believe you would need to override a bunch of drawing-related events and possibly deal with some Win32 calls to have images show in subitems.
However, there is an open source custom listview control for .NET called ObjectListView that supports this feature. You could use that instead of the built-in one.
