Hi All

After writing numerous programs in VB.net 2005 I find that the Toolbox takes
forever to initialise.

When it appears it has loads of extra tools mainly report viewer Table
Adaptors etc that I have built in my programs

Is there any way to stop the toolbox from loading anything other than the
default tools

Regards
Steve
 
Hi Steve,

I am sorry that I may not understand your question exactly.
When it appears it has loads of extra tools mainly report viewer Table
Adaptors etc that I have built in my programs

Could you please tell me what you mean in the above sentence? Which tabs do
these extra tool items reside within the Toolbox?

By default, ReportViewer resides under both All Windows Forms and Data tabs
in the Toolbox.

As for TableAdapter component, when you create a TableAdapter component in
your project and then build the project, the custom TableAdapter component
will appear under a tab with the name of the project in the Toolbox by
default.

If you don't want the Toolbox to be automatically populated after you add a
custom component or control, e.g. custom UserControl or TableAdapter and
build the project, you could do like this. Go to the menu Tools | Options.
In the Options window, expand the 'Windows Forms Designer' node and selet
the 'General' sub node. At the right properties window, set the
AutoToolboxPopulate under the Toolbox section to False.

If you'd like to restore the default Toolbox, you could right-click on the
Toolbox and choose the command 'Reset Toolbox'.

If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.


Sincerely,
Linda Liu
