*Sweet* Windows Forms 2.0 Features Screen Shots
The Windows Forms team has posted some sweet screenshots and overviews of the major new features in Windows Forms 2.0, including two I hadn't heard about before:
- Client Configuration using type-safe per-user serialization of application settings
- Document Outline to show how controls are nested in a container
This is in additional to all of the other cool stuff, like a .NET WebBrowser wrapper, the new DataGridView, the strip controls, even more flexible layout, ClickOnce deployment (my personal favorite) and more.

Windows Forms 2.0 will ship as part of .NET 2.0/Visual Studio .NET 2005 probably early next year ie not for Longhorn

I like it. Now how about an 0h-so-simple Streaming Video control?
Nice to see that DatagridView is finally making VS as easy to use...as Delphi was in 1996. (grin)
Grumbles aside, love .Net. can't wait for Whidbey!

I never miss an opportunity to toot my own horn, so just in case folks havent seen it, you can have the Document Outline feature Chris mentions today in VS20003 by downloading the add-in I wrote:

Look for the Control Outline add-in under the 'Original PowerToys' section.
