I have learned quite a bit browsing through Hidden Features
of C# and was surprised when I couldn't find something
similar for VB.NET.
So what are some of its hidden or lesser known features?

I now want to add code coverage to the nightly builds as well.
Does anyone have a list of coverage tools that work on 4.0 assemblies and could be integrated into our automated builds?
Hi all, I have created a basic chart in VB.NET (VS 2008) and it is working good, but I would like to label the axies of the chart. The method "AxisLabel" is not what I am looking for. I want to put the word "Dollars" vertically on the far left hand side of my chart (just left of the numbers labeling the "y" axis) and the word "Months" horizontally at the bottom of the chart but above the legend (just below the numbers labeling the "x" axis). Check the picture out...
I need to access a file as text file and want to process it later. But before I fetch it how I can identify a file that I am taking is a text file only. If file is in another format my whole code interpret wrongly. I want to access and process only text file.

StreamReader objReader = new StreamReader(filePath);
How can I do so in C# .NET?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a .net library that will enable me to extract block attributes out of a autocad file. I don't mind paying for a developers licence but I should be able to freely redistribute the library itself without additional costs.
Is there a lib that suits my needs?

The .NET ComboBox autocomplete will not fully autocomplete with the display text contains a slash. It completes only up to the slash, leaving SelectedIndex == -1 and SelectedValue == null.
This behavior stupidly persists no matter whether your autocompletesource is set to ListItems rather than FileSystem or URL.
Is there any workaround for this that doesn't involve just throwing the ComboBox class away and writing a "MyComboBox" class?

Does anyone know any frameworks for doing this?
EDIT: Here's a hint... It had a catchy, short name and it's own domain. Sorry, that's all I can remember :p
