It doesn't work for me: All the controls (combo boxes, text boxes, even the explorer page itself) are invisible unless I select their parent to be "none." I'm running the latest beta. Any chance of getting that fixed soon?

PS: After I set the parents to none, all the controls work properly.

OK, this isn't a problem in the latest internal DX build but I've changed it for backwards compatibility.

I can not get any combo boxes to drop down. I can enter a zip code that is all. Am I missing something. Using 1.99c[b].002.
Looks good when it will work.

John,

The zip needs to change before the 'Service' combo will enable. Others will then open as required. Try clearing the zip then typing one in.

Elvee - do you see all the controls you see in the screenshot? They're all fairly standard so it would be a surprise if you don't have them but who knows!

No, it doesnt look like the ScreenShot. When I load the object, I am told to configure it but the only field that is open is the Zip. I put in my Zip and nothing happens when I hit enter, Tab, Anything. I've tried clearing the Zip and starting over...nothing. The Rest of the fields stay black. And I get numerous script errors. I am running the latest beta in StarDock Central

Elvee, you don't have the Windows Forms controls installed which is wierd as I thought they were standard. I seem to remember you had similar problems with my other stuff that used these controls.
I really don't know what to suggest (

Try installing this MS demo and see if it installs the controls. http://download.microsoft.com/download/visualbasic.net/sample59/1.0/NT45XP/EN-US/ComparisonofDataBindinginWebandWindowsForms.exe

A reboot may be required.

I have exactly the same problems that Elvee does with this object, as well as with the weather object.

leveck: Sorry - if the controls aren't installed there's not much I can do. They are fairly standard on most machines.

Hey, I was wondering... if the site you're getting the info from isn't up any more how do you change where the info comes from?

Man, I am telling you, they should give you some time off so you can make some serious plug-ins and DX objects.

Your sooooo way needed in that area!!

JTB: This object is VERY intertwined with TVGuide.com for populating the controls and retrieving the listings so it would be a complete rewrite to change this.

Thanks for your kind words

would be cool to add an option to go forward in time and maybe filter channels

Tesla - remind me in a month or so - I'm a bit busy, but this is fairly easy to do.
