FieldChooser has no entries

   I have converted my application from vb6 to VS2008.

On the form with the ReportControl, I load the data into the ReportControl
Setting the visible and showinfieldchooser as approiate.

The data displays fine and only the columns that should be displayed are displayed.

When I select the menu item to show the fieldchooser, the code that
is excuted is the same as the sample in ReportControl.

The form is display, but the fieldchooser control is empty(has no entries)
and there should be.

What is the prolbem.

The sample "ReportControl" does work properly.

	Hi, Why do you want to use the FieldChooser at all? Dragging columns to the GroupBox will have the same effect. At least as I see it, if I'm wrong please tell me. I wanted to use the FieldChooser but it didn't work as expected.

	For vb.net Code it like this: dim _FieldChooser as New frmFieldChooser() frmFieldChooser.Owner = Me frmFieldChooser.ShowInTaskbar = False 'Displays a form with a FieldChooser control Me.frmFieldChooser.Show() Dim FieldChooserOcx As XtremeReportControl.FieldChooser = (CType(_FieldChooser.wndFieldChooser.GetOcx(), XtremeReportControl.FieldChooser)) 'Associates a FieldChooser control with a ReportControl on another form 'This is necessary so the ReportControl knows where to find the FieldChooser so it can 'add and remove column headers. Me.wndReportControl.FieldChooser = FieldChooserOcx

	Hi, My question was: Why do you need the FieldChooser?
