For years I been doing all my development on a big and heavy laptop. While in the office I use a docking station to connect multiple monitors and when working from home I just connect to the office using VPN to get to the database server and team foundation server. Overall it works well except when using the DDT to modify the application database. So I thought I'd give remote desktop a try and use a lightweight ultrabook computer to connect to an office computer with all my development tools. With SF installed on my office computer I'd expect everything to be pretty fast when accessed remotely and over all it is. However I've run into an issue that has me totally stumped. When running an application within Visual Studio via a remote desktop connection I'm getting cross threading errors on some controls. There is no issue if I run a compiled version of the program via remote desktop or if I run the application within Visual Studio locally. The cross threading error is repeatable and only happens when the app is run within Visual Studio remotely using remote desktop. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening and how to work around it? I've tried googling the error and I get a lots of hits on cross threading errors but nothing specific to Visual Studio and remote desktop.
