I had posted some months ago how to automatically remove trailing whitespace from files open in Visual Studio . I had created a macro that would be run every time a file was saved. I noticed that every time I tried to save a LINQ to SQL file, the one with the “.dbml” extension, I had a dialog...

Just the other day I was working on a page with an ObjectDataSource. I discovered something I had not known before. You would think that the control would fetch the data from the source by the time PreRender is called. On the contrary. The call does not happen before PreRender, but right after it and...
