| .NET Anatomy Part III: Creating the Templated Control |
| DotNetJunkies |
| This three part article shows, step-by-step, how to use Visual Studio .NET to create templated controls visually, without writing code and then explores the code that is generated as a result. In the final part of this article, Barton turns his attention to the ASP.NET portion of the project, creates the templated control and wraps things up. |

| Advanced Checkbox Validation Across n-Pages for the DataGrid Control |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In this article, Oliver shows how to select up to two records from a datagrid that can then be compared to generate a PDF document on the fly. |
|
| Advanced Data Mapping in .NET |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In this article, Tin demonstrates 3 automated mechanisms for data mapping: mapping from Database table columns to object properties, mapping from HTML form fields to object properties, mapping from ASP.NET Web controls to object properties. |

| Ask the DotNetJunkies: Performance Impacts of Server Controls |
| DotNetJunkies |
| If the validation controls or intrinsic controls post the page back to the server, will it not affect the performance of the pages because huge files have to go back and forth from the client to the server? |
|
| ASP.NET Control Validation in Groups |
| The Code Project |
| The validation controls of ASP.NET offer a great deal of flexibility and comfort when you need to write data entry pages in your web application. They provide the ability to ensure valid data in the input fields in a rather declarative than procedural way. So far so good. Imagine a form that handles different payment methods. Depending on the selected method different fields should be mandatory while others remain empty. |

| Building a CheckBoxList Validator Control - Part 2 |
| DotNetJunkies |
| As promised, this week we will be going over how to add client-side JavaScript to a custom validator control. But last week I was asked a very interesting question. What validator control should I use to validate that a CheckBox was checked within a CheckBoxList? The anwser was simple, NONE. None of the validator controls in the .NET valiator control suite does this type of validation. So, in this article not only are we going to discuss how to add JavaScript validation control for client-side validation, but how to create a CheckBoxListRequiredFieldValidator control. |

| Building a Forms Generator using Code DOM |
| C#Today |
| In this case study, Matt Reynolds looks at one of the most powerful features of .NET Code DOM. Code DOM is short for Code Document Object Model, and it has been designed to generate code in any managed language, although support from language to language may vary. Core Microsoft languages will typically support Code DOM (C# and VB .NET both do, obviously). In this case study, were going to look at how to build a Forms Generator using Code DOM. Were going to put together a project that can take a DataTable and from that generate a new C# source code file containing a class that extends UserControl that also has a set of TextBox, Label and CheckBox controls that allow editing of that DataTable. |

| Building Windows Forms on-the-fly with XML and C# |
| C#Today |
| In this article, Ashiwn Kamanna takes the concept of an XML driven Form builder a step further than the basics as he discusses how to eliminate the requirement for Form development, not only in an ASP based web application, but also in any potential client of an application. He discusses how to build a Form dynamically in a C# based windows application, and also discusses some object oriented patterns as he walks us through an example. |

| CodeSnip: XML Form Generator, Part 1: Generating an XML Form |
| http://aspalliance.com/ |
| One of the most frequent tasks that web developers receive is that of creating a form to collect user input. One solution is to use an ASP.NET web page to create an XML file that will be used as the basis for a Web form. The three part article, XML Form Generator, will demonstrate how to easily create an XML form that will save user input as an XML file. |

| Creating a Fully Editable DataGrid |
| DotNetJunkies |
| In this example I have written a simple WebForm to manage a list of contacts which I have stored in XML. The requirements are simply the ability to add new contacts and to be able to modify or delete existing contacts. The user should be able to modify or delete multiple contacts at one time. I have also allowed the user to sort their grid by the column of their choosing. |

| Data Binding Between Controls in Windows Forms |
| MSDN |
| Data binding is a very powerful feature of most applications, and Windows® Forms and Web Forms applications are clearly no exception. Data binding is the process of retrieving data from a source and dynamically associating it with a property of a visual element. Depending on the context in which the element will be displayed, you can map the element to an HTML tag, a Microsoft® .NET Web control, or a Windows Forms control. |

| DataBound DataPanel with TextBox and CheckBox v1.0 |
| GotDotNet |
| The DataPanel lets you databind the DataSet, DataTable, DataView, or DataRow to the panel and work with data in the same manner as in a DataGrid in edit mode. This functionality is very useful for editing a large number of fields in a Web form. The current implementation provides support for a DataTextBox and DataCheckBox within the container. These controls are mapped to a DataColumn name and allow for updates on the DataRow you're editing. The container handles the edit update and cancel buttons and it has Visual Studio .NET design time support. A comprehensive ReadMe is provided with screenshots and a walkthrough. |

| Developing A Vector Based C# Drawing Application - Part 3 |
| C#Today |
| In the first part of this series, Budi Kurniawan discussed the specification for a vector based C# drawing application. In Part 2, we looked at the Shape abstract class and the seven classes that inherit it. We also examined how an event handler works in a Windows application and we briefly discussed the System.Collections namespace. In this final part of the project, we will complete the development by discussing the DrawingArea custom control, the Color and Pen classes from the System.Drawing namespace, and object serialization - which is used to persist our drawing to a file, to be restored at a later stage. |
