(Chris Bennett) Some time ago, Microsoft released a full-featured Chart Control for the .NET Framework 3.5.

Creating your First Crystal Report for Use in a .NET Application
(Jeff McWherter) Reports are a mere after thought on many projects. A great deal of effort is put into creating forms to manipulate the customer’s data, but many developers and project managers wait until the last minute to create reports. At this point in many projects, the budget is nearly gone, a
Editing a variable length list, ASP.NET MVC 2-style
(Steve Sanderson) A while back I posted about a way of editing a list of items where the user can add or remove as many items as they want.

Implementing Self-Reflection with Extension Methods
(Paul Kimmel) One of the books that was instrumental for me in writing bug free code was Dave Thielen’s No Bugs! Dave Thielen was a key factor in writing the well-received MSDOS 5.0. (It was a long time ago.) After buggy MSDOS 4.0 everyone was ready for a less buggy version of DOS. Dave’s No Bugs! T
Creating Stored Procedures with Managed Code

Prior to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, the only way to write procedures and functions was b
