We are picking up an old project which was built in 2009 in .NET 2.0 using VS 2005. It pulls in real time stock prices and has some formulas implemented based on those real time stock prices. We notice the formula calculation cannot handle the real time data and so would appreciate your help since we need to finish up this project rather soon.
Hi,
There's not much information here to go on, so I'm not sure how I can help.
If you are constantly updating grid cells that affect formula calculations, then I can see how the CalcManager might not be able to keep up, since it has to recalculate every time something changes.
It couldn't hurt to make sure your code involving the grid is as efficient as possible. Have you read the WinGrid Performance Guide?
Hello - thanks for your response. I read the WinGrid Performance Guide that you sent a link to, and the tips there make sense. I am new to Infragistics products, and so am not 100% sure if those would help in our case. So I will start with a general question first, actually 2:
1. Our application was built in 2009, so since then have their been any product enhancements for performance reasons? In other words, is there a new version of the product that we coudl download which would help us with performance?
2. Have there been other companies with similar functionality implemented (that is - pull real time data in one column of the grid, and then perform/update calculations based on this real time data in subsequent cells)?
Thanks.
Hello - I contacted you last year about our project that uses the Netadvantage. We created the project in 2 versions of NetAdvantage - 8.2 as well as 8.3. The license was in another developer's name who does not work here anymore, so we requested it to be transferred to my name which was done.
However when I open the project that references 8.2 version dlls, I can open up the grid in design view, whereas when I open up the project that references 8.3 version dlls, I cannot open up the grid in design view, instead of showing me the UI, it shows the HTML. So would appreciate your help in fixing this.
If you need more information (screenshot etc.) please let me know.

Neeraj,
You should verify that the version of the NetAdvantage assemblies referenced in your project are the same as what you have installed on your development machine. They may be different builds depending on if you have a service release installed or not. The version of the assemblies installed can be determined by looking at the version of the assemblies in the installation directory and you should be able to compare this with the references in your application while in Visual Studio.
Note that I am not sure if this is for a Windows Application or a Web Application since this thread is for the WinCalcManager and you mentioned you see HTML when looking at the designer. If you have a screen shot of what you see this may help me to clarify my answer if you have questions.
Let me know if I may be of further assistance.
Hi Alan - thanks so much for your response. I am actually in the middle of downloading a later version from your website (Net Advantage Select 2008 Vol 3), and will try to install that to see if that fixes the problem. Once I attempt to do that, will surely let you know.
Hi Alan - upgrading to a later version seems to have done the trick. Thanks so much for your help. We are currently in the middle of getting this app working with the version we currently have, but may be upgrading some time in the near future, so if that happens we will reach out to you again.
Thanks again for your help!
Hi Alan - few days ago, I got the control to work on my machine. However I have 2 questions:
1. We have 2 licenses for our company, they were both in my name, but I got 1 of them transferred to my boss's name since we would like to keep the 2 licenses on 2 separate machines. However, after transferring the license in his name, what does he have to do to be able to see the license? When I open up our project from a shared location, I see the license.licx under "Properties" but when he opens up the exact same project, he does not see it under "Properties", any ideas why?
2. We were wondering if there is a way to not have to install the version that we need to run the project against. In other words, in order for the project to work on my machine properly and see the control in designer view, I had to install NET Advantage 2008 Vol 3 on my machine. Whereas - could we just point the reference in the project to NET Advantage 2008 Vol 3 dlls to a shared location and make it work? Currently by doing so, it does not seem to work.
Would appreciate your help once again.
Hi Alan - thanks for your help again, just wanted to let you know, everything works for him now.
Neerja,
For #1, is this being opened from source control? Is it possible that he has an earlier version of the project that hasn't yet generated the licenses.licx file? This file is generated by visual studio when interacting with the designers for the controls.
For #2, for the designers to work it is necessary to install the toolset so that the design assemblies are in the GAC and the relevant registry entries are added to the machines registry.
Let me know if you have any questions with this matter.
