In this post we are going to take a look at some of the events that are raised by various parts of the Microsoft ADO.NET Entity Framework (EF). I’m using the recently released Beta 1 of Visual Studio 2010 / .Net Framework 4.0 for this demo but most of the information also applies to the first version of EF released in .Net Framework 3.5 SP1.

This post runs through a simple demo of the new N-Tier focused APIs in the in ADO.Net Entity Framework bits (EF4) that are included in Beta 1 of Visual Studio 2010 / .Net Framework 4.0.
For this demo we are going to build a simple WCF service that allows distributed clients to persist changes to a simple object graph with an Order as it's root.
This demo also makes use of POCO Support and T4 Template Code Generation.

Through the ReportViewer component users can view, export and print SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) reports. Developers also get some nice hooks into the ReportViewer control and I’m going to demo how we can use these to extract the report to a pdf and attach it to a new outlook message ready for the user to view and send.

This post is somewhat related to my last one that discussed using the Web Dev Server, that ships with VS, to hit ASP.Net web pages from a unit test. In this post I’m going to cover how to fake a user initiated post back from C# code, this example will mimic a button click but should be easy enough to adapt to another control. This example includes the use of View State & Event Validation.

One of the great features that came with VS2005 was the Web Dev Server which allows us to run and debug web applications on our development box without the need to install IIS. As with most cool gadgets used by Visual Studio the web dev server is actually also a standalone component that we can make use of outside of the IDE.

How to filter the values in an SSRS parameter drop down list using a text search.
The idea behind this post came from a question from a colleague, they wanted an SSRS report where they could select from a list of employees but the list could be filtered by searching on the surname (i.e. you enter ‘S’ and it would load a dropdown of all employees whose surname start with S).
