DataTable visualizer disappeared from my Visual Studio

dataset, visual-studio, visual-studio-2005, visualizer

Solution

I was really bothered by the problem, so I turned to Microsoft support, and they solved my problem! The short solution is that apparently one of the DLL's in the My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Visualizers folder was corrupted. I deleted all the contents of the folder, and the visualizer came back. The long answer can be found in this post written by Faruk Celik - the person from Microsoft who solved my problem.

Problem

A while ago I noticed I don't have a magnifying-glass next to my datatables. I used to have it, and somehow, sometime, it disappeared... Has anyone seen this happen? Do you know how to help me view my datatables again? Update: I'm still clueless about this. Could anyone point me in some direction, where should I even start looking for an answer? Thanks a lot. Update: I changed to a new computer, and still the same problem. But I pinpointed it to being only in Visual Studio 2005. On Visual Studio 2008 I have perfectly normal DataSet and Datatable visualizers. So I tried re-installing VS2005, to make sure all the components were installed, nothing left out - but Nada. Still no visualizer. Update: Found the solution to my problem: My answer
