Are there any datarow visualizers which work in VS 2008? I have tried a couple (DotNetDan & Captator) and they both give cast exceptions. It seems these were developed for VS 2005. I know I can put a datarow in a datatable and view it through a datatable visualizer but I don't want to write code every time I want to inspect one. ...

The FTP LIST command displays a listing of all the files and directories in the current working directory. The problem is, it returns several different formats depending on the server.

What is the best way to attempt to debug and pinpoint the code causing a SQL transaction to be elevated to a DTC? I'm working with an existing API that is failing for me alone, so i believe it to be some kind of config error or something wacky. I'm not having much luck finding the culprit via debugger. Are there better ways to find the o...

I'm trying to set the images in a TreeView in C#, from a .ico file containing two icons: a 32x32 version and a 16x16 version. The images are setting, but .Net is choosing the 32x32 version, and scaling it down (which looks terrible) instead of choosing the readily available 16x16 image. The relevant code: ilTree.Images.Add(Properties.R...
