I would like to start using the charting objects in the Ajax Control Toolkit but I don't seem to have access to the controls (the chart options are not available in my toolkit). Are there frame work requirements to use this? My web application is built on .Net 4.0, I'm using Visual Studio 2010, and the toolkit version is 4.1.60919. What am I missing? I don't have an option to change my IDE or framework. If it is a limitation due to these two things, does anyone have any options for a free, light weight, charting options?
Thanks

I want to add a datagrid to my ASP.net web application. Is it possible to do this without recreating my project as a Silverlight project? If so, how do I do it?
I only see the option to add a DataList in my toolbox and no option at all for a DataGrid. I'm also not sure how to include a library in my project, if it is even possible to do this (this is my first time working with VB.NET so it's all a little confusing still). In C, C++, Java it's so easy! Or do I even need to use the SilverLight library at all?
If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be greatly appreciated.
I am using Visual Studio 2010 Professional.
Thanks!
In previous versions of .NET, a tabled list of records was referred to as a datagrid. In .NET 4 (Visual Studio 2010), it is now called a gridview and will be available in the Toolbox.
Also, there isn't any need to recreate your project as a Silverlight project. You can use gridviews in ASP.NET Web Applications.
I would like to use the wonderful Ext.NET library (.dll) inside a MonoDevelop project.
Is it possible? If yes, how can I register it in my project to see the <ext:something> extension like the <asp:textbox> for standard asp.net controls?
I don't have much personal experience with Ext.NET + Mono, but I do know several community members have been successfully developing with Mono. The following search results may help track down a bit more information, see

Has anybody had any hands-on experience using Devexpress ASP.NET components with Delphi Prism? At the moment I'm specifically interested in using their "Calendar and Scheduling for ASP.NET" suite.
Sharing your pros/cons, successes/failures would be greatly appreciated.
I'm looking leverage my knowledge of Delphi (and my ownership of RAD Studio).
Thanks in advance.
I know that some of our customers use Prism as a platform for the ASP.NET development. However, we do not officially support this platform and thus won't be able to help you if you run into troubles. Please also refer to

Is there a RAD-way to create nice looking forms with ASP.Net webforms? I'm using .NET Framework 3.5 and Visual Studio 2010. Thanks!
Is there someway of having something like the DataGrid autoformat.
Sencha's Ext JS (http://www.sencha.com/products/js/) is an excellent framework on the client side for rich forms (and other UI elements)
If you want WYSIWYG visual design inside of VS2010, you'll need a third-party tool like Coolite (http://www.coolite.com/).
But if you can deal with a bit more abstraction and don't need everything designed literally in your IDE, I would recommend Sencha's Designer app (http://www.sencha.com/products/designer/), which is web-based. Or, hand-code the JavaScript, Sencha's syntax is well-documented.
Is it jQuery? Is there a way to integrate support for the excellent ExtJS or YUI libraries?
Any news on whether Visual Studio 2010 will support another JS framework?
I have only seen that Microsoft will support JQuery. But that has less to do with Visual Studio and IIS, and more to do with Microsoft Support practices. JQuery will be shipped with Visual Studio 2010, the Microsoft AJAX Framework, and the ASP.Net MVC Framework (happening now).
But you can use any JavaScript library you want, and if you have the correct service packs you should also get a bit of intelesence with Visual Studio 2008.
The one "extra" JQuery gives you that I have not seen (yet) from other JavaScript libraries is a version of their library with Visual Studio comments in them, giving better intelesense directives.
You can use any javascript framework you like. JQuery comes packaged with .Net, but it's not your only option.
If you have either documented or debug versions of the framework you want to use, VS 2008 will give you IntelliSense of the referenced JS libraries.
If you've installed the additional IntelliSense hotfix KB958502, you can take advantage of VS automatically finding copies of documented JS files named .vsdoc.js or .debug.js next to your referenced minified versions.
Going forward, VS 2010 will have even more support for JavaScript, working out parameter types from usage, etc.
Microsoft have started offering support for jQuery - which is different to VS supporting a JavaScript framework - this means that you can phone MS up and say your site isn't working with jQuery, and they will help you fix it (as a standard support incident, like they would if you found an issue in VS itself, or IIS, or even Word).
yeah you can use any frame work you want, but be careful of frameworks conflict i spent hell of a time to figure out Jquery problems with other framework, until i discovered that it has problem with moo tools regarding syntax, here is the link it will save you hell of a time.
