Hi All,

I've just installed VS 2008 and made first tests.

I had the following strange things happen:

• When I create a Windows Forms Application, VS 2008 put into references assemblies from Framework 2.0 and not 3.5.
• In Toolbox I find 2.0 controls and not 3.5 controls.
• I do not find some of 1.1 Form controls (such as DataGrid or ContextMenu). They are mentioned into 3.5 documentations, but I don't find a way to add to toolbox. If I try to Choose Item to add it, I see DataGrid 3.5 (from Compact Framework and not GAC!) already checked, but it is not displayed in any tabs.

Anybody have experimented the same problems?..

Hi intercad,

I performed a project following the steps you provided, by default the DataGrid control is not shown in the ToolBox. But I can add it to the ToolBox by using ‘Choose items� When I select the ‘Choose items�and choose the �Net Framework Components�tab, I can see a DataGrid with System.Windows.Form(2.0.0.0) as its Assembly Name. So I check this DataGrid and it list in the ToolBox.

Hope this helps.
Best regards.
