You can try adding the reference using SvcUtil. To be honest, I dont think VS2010 has anything to do with this. The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick Visit the Hindi forum here.

After doing a few more tests it turns out that the work area was 600x400 but the user control was 600x800. After resizing the user control to the area of the dock panel, everything displays properly.

One of the great things about WPF is that you don't need this sort of thing anymore! Jammer My Blog | Articles | DMon | SampleSort

No problem :) You stare at your own code for too long, you start to focus on some parts and disregard others... Then all it takes is a fresh pair of eyes to find the piece you ignored. When I think I'm getting to this point, I usually hop on CP or /. for a bit to reboot the old brain. Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

Michael Eber wrote: ConvertParameter=0\d AFAIK, ConvertParameter does not support binding. So, you can only pass 'hardcoded' values like 0\d, which will format your date. The date is passed using the binding value e.g. Text="{Binding myDate, Converter={StaticResource myConverter}}". However, the entire collection can be passed into the converter. The appropriate value(s) can then be used inside the converter to construct the value you want to display in your UI. There are only 10 types of people in this world — those who understand binary, and those who don't.

yeh...found I had to specify the field in the data to display within the properties.

Ahhh yes, you are two letters short of an asset.

Thanks. I saw the one entity model template but avoided it since it was called ADO.NET. ;) So I'm sure in code my consumption of it will be somewhat different but I'm very comfortable with Linq to SQL. Thanks for explaining the differences.

Okay...I've been tinkering with this so far and have a few questions.... First: I have a dropdown box and I defined an OnSelectedIndexChange event. When I run the application and I select an item in the dropdown box, my next dropdown box is not populated! UIPDATE: I believe I got this fixed. Set the dropdowns to AutoPageBack (or something like that). Second: When I add dropdown lists to the GridView do I also use a TemplateColumn? Finally: I must be using the TemplateColumn incorrectly. If it is in the Gridview it complains no such type exists. If I add a <Column> header then add the TemplateColumn I get a different error. Where to I add the TemplateColumn? Do I use a <Field> header instead? :sigh: modified on Monday, September 28, 2009 12:57 PM
