Error Provider in WPF

I am looking at WPF componenents in the toolbox but I cannot find the error provider that is present in 2005/2008.

Is it removed?

Solution

  • the ErrorProvider is a Winforms control. There is no equivalent in WPF. But you will still be able to find in in visual studio 2008 if you create a win forms project.
