I am working on the tutorial "List Control Population" Choosing Enum and clicking the button displays the dialog. Entering dbtype and clicking search, puts up a "Searching..." window, the disk blinks once and the Searching..... window stays there forever.



Since there is no way to type in the PopulationEnumName field, this feature is totally broken.

I have seen this on several machines.  Do this first, create a custom enum.  In fact use this one below:

Public Enum MySampleType As Integer
    First = 0
    Second = 1
    Third = 2
End Enum

Once created, build the solution.  Go back to the PopulationEnum and type MySample in the search field.  See if this displays the new enum we just created.  If so, I have an idea of what might be happening on your machine.

Nope. Searching just displays the little wait window which stays there until I close VisualStudio.

Does this happen on both of your computers?

yes

We will need to debug this on your computer to determine why you are getting an error.  I will look on my side and see if I can capture the error and just write it to a log file and then I will send you the updated DLL.

thanks

Daniel,

I reproduced and fixed this issue.  The fix will be included in the next update which will be available at the end of the month or beginning of April.  If I can I will get you a copy sooner.  Thanks.
