Hi All,

I am trying to learning C# visual studio 2005 Win form (desktop program) by development a new project. As I am working on this project, I found using C# in Visual Studio 2005 is not as easy as Delphi 5, 6, 7 or VB (before .Net version). It has to make a lot of code and some visual features which exist in Delphi or VB are disappeared.

Moreover, the control in VS2005 lacks a lot of feature. The datetimepicker cannot handle database null value!

Why VS2005 is in such a way??

It does speed up web development (ASP.NET) but not Winform (desktop) program.

I prefer the VS2005 (and now 2008) IDE over Delphi or Visual Basic 6.0. I've never used the datetimepicker with a database so I've not experienced the null value problem. I imagine a simple test for null before sending the value to the control would fix the issue.

In VS2008 I just read/write from XML files, as they are so much easier, quicker and more reliable to use.
