AxWebBrowser inside tab page...
Maybe I put this question in the wrong forum or something...anyway -
I have a 10 tab tabcontrol on my form. I have used the AxWebBrowser control successfully (and flawlessly) on other forms that didn't have tabs, but I am having the hardest time getting the browser to render inside a tab control. No empty white field, no nothing. I don't even get a redraw when I switch from another tab.
There's not much code involved...just an import system.io, MyBrowser.enter event, and then a MyBrowser.navigate("blah\blah\file.htm")...but let me know if you want my snippet anyway.
Thanks,
CP

Well, I tested a theory, I started a new solution, added tabs to the form, added the AxWebBrowser to a random tab, and it worked fine.
I then added a new tab to the project I REALLY need it to work in, added the AxWebBrowser to it, and still nothing...so something in my app is preventing it from working properly.
I also submitted it as a bug, but obviously the attempt to reproduce the problem will yield results different from my problem, so I doubt it will get any attention.
Any ideas? Bueller?

I had tried to install the .NET 2.0 Framwork some time ago, I think it was when the VS.NET 2005 betas first came out. I had huge problems with my machine and other .NET applications. At the time, I was working on some ASP.NET stuff, and it came to a point where I had to scrap the entire contents of my hard drive and start over.
So, needless to say, I am very leery of installing anything new at this point. If you can assure me that the .NET 2.0 Framework is harmless, and any .NET app will run under it, I may be willing to give it a try, but this is a production machine, not a beta testing machine, so it MUST work properly.

I just downloaded the .NET Framework 2.0 and am awaiting a 'go-ahead' from somebody in the know before I install it. I just want to know if it's going to adversely effect my day to day programming in Visual Studio .NET 2003 or only make it better.
When I installed the 2.0 Framework as described above, I had also installed a bunch of the 2005 beta Visual Studio stuff, as well as ASP.NET 2.0, and I think that may have been what messed me up...it may not have been the 2.0 Framework itself.
For anybody wondering or worrying about this same thing, Microsoft just released this article that is directly related to the .NET 2.0 Framwork and its compatibility with applications built under the .NET 1.1 Framework.
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 & 2.0 (beta) Compatibility Thanks for quelling my worries MS!
