¿Why task vision does not use Error Providers?

"An error provider is a better alternative than displaying an error message in a message box, because once a message box is dismissed the error message is no longer visible". 
MSDN Documentation.

In the tutorials for validating data in .NET, it says that you should use System.Windows.Forms.ErrorProvider to show the fields that have invalid values, but
TaskVision uses MessageBoxes. ¿Why TaskVision does not use ErrorProviders?

Introduction to the Windows Forms ErrorProvider Component
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vbcon/html/vbconerrorcontroloverview.asp

From there you can go to:
-Viewing Errors within a Dataset with the Windows Forms ErrorProvider Component
-Displaying Error Icons for Form Validation with the Windows Forms ErrorProvider Component
-ErrorProvider Class

Hi
Yes it seems that NO ONE from Microsoft CARES about this.
Maybe the documentation for ErrorProviders should have a label saying
"we developed this, but we dont know how to use it, so we won't use it, and please dont ask, because we won't answer"
bye
