    <p>I have a program that monitors debug messages and I have tried using a TextBox and appended the messages to it but it doesn't scale very well and slows way down when the number of messages gets large. I then tried a ListBox but the scrolling was snapping to the top when appending new messages. It also doesn't allow for cut and paste like the text box does.</p> <p>What is a better way to implement a console like element embedded in a winforms window.</p> <p>Edit: I would still like to be able to embed a output window like visual studio but since I can't figure out an easy way here are the two solutions I use. In addition to using the RichTextBox which works but you have to clear it every now and then. I use a console that I pinvoke. Here is a little wrapper class that I wrote to handle this. </p> <pre><code> using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; namespace Con { class Ext_Console { static bool console_on = false; public static void Show(bool on,string title) { console_on = on; if (console_on) { AllocConsole(); Console.Title = title; // use to change color Console.BackgroundColor = System.ConsoleColor.White; Console.ForegroundColor = System.ConsoleColor.Black; } else { FreeConsole(); } } public static void Write(string output) { if (console_on) { Console.Write(output); } } public static void WriteLine(string output) { if (console_on) { Console.WriteLine(output); } } [DllImport("kernel32.dll")] public static extern Boolean AllocConsole(); [DllImport("kernel32.dll")] public static extern Boolean FreeConsole(); } } // example calls Ext_Console.Write("console output "); Ext_Console.WriteLine("console output"); Ext_Console.Show(true,"Title of console"); </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
