    - browser and rich text box controls for .Net CF Hi, Does anyone know if there's a broswer control OR a rich text box control for the .Net CF that has a "selected text" property like the textbox control does? I am needing to display formatted text (bold, change font, color, highlight) but also allow the user to select the text and my program recognize and FIND the selected text and where the cursor is at in the text like a regular text box (but not allow any editing). I am currently using the free browser control from the OpenCF group. I can format my text coming in by adding HTML tags and it works great BUT there's no selected text index and I can't find out where the cursor is at since it's a browser control. Thanks for any ideas or help! Regards, Andrew Jones Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18619

    - Regional Settings Problem / SQLCE money Type Hi guys, im having a problem with CF and SQLCE. ill try to explain it: The Decimal Value in VB.Net(with regional settings to english) is something like 10.98, it uses the dot to split the decimal part. In the VB.NET i work fine with this value. When i convert 10.98 i got 10,98 cuz my regional settings is pointed to Portuguese(Brasil). When i try to record the 10,98 in the SQLCE money field, it brings me and error. I was sending the 10.98, and got no problem. But with the 10,98 in the string the SQLCE assumes that there are two fields. Anyone knows how to send values to SQLCE expliciting they r money values? Or to change the regional Settings logically? Or any other way to do such thing? Thanks, Felipe Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18615

    - Visual Studio & Pocket PC 2003 I have seen various messages on this newsgroup indicating that there is an updated emulator available for VS.NET that emulates PPC2003 instead of PPC2002 (which is all that I have). Can somebody please let me have details on how to get this. Secondly, just for my own peace of mind, can you confirm: PPC2003 = Windows CE.NET? (Version = 4.20.1081 Build 13100) Thanks.

    - SqlCeDataAdapter.RowUpdated event Can anybody explain to me why after calling SqlCeDataAdapter.Update the RowUpdated event is called but the error information seems incomplete? In the event hander RowsEffected sometimes = 0 so I get the idea that there has been an error, as a succesfull RowUpdate in my case should have 1 row effected. If I dont set the event argument Status to System.Data.UpdateStatus.Continue an Exception is generated which in my case often tells me there is a primary key constraint problem. However if I set Status = System.Data.UpdateStatus.Continue no exception is thrown (as expected) but nor can I get detailed error information in either the event handler or the function that called Update. I dont understand why it isnt available in the event handler since the Row is meant to already had been attempted to be updated. Any ideas? Thanks Josh Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18603

    - localizating controls ? Hello, I'm trying to find an easy way to localize control's Text properties. For instance I could replace the following code: void InitializeComponents() { ... this.m_Label1 = new Label(); this.m_Label1.Text = "Hallo Welt !" ... } with this code: void InitializeComponents() { ... this.m_Label1 = new Label(); this.m_Label1.Text = Resource.GetString("Hallo Welt !") ... } In which Resource.GetString() is a static function searching the calling assembly's resources for a translation of "Hallo Welt !" depending on System.Globalization.CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture. Unfortunately, editing InitializeComponents() would render the designer useless. So that method is out of question. The next solution that comes to mind is to set all translatable text again after InitializeComponents() has finished. But this is cirumstantial, fault-prone and time-consuming (both, run-time and design-time). Another approach would be to extend all standard controls so that they call Resource.GetString() automatically. How would you or did you deal with this problem ?

    - Yet again a much asked question: full screen Hi, I am reposting my question of a few weeks ago because I got no response. I was using this CDialog based baseclass STFullScreen from http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/stfullscreen.html This worked fine on PPC 2002 but seems ineffective under PPC 2003. It seems PPC 2003 behaves different enough with hiding start and sip menu's and perhaps with windows positions or whatever, to cause my PPC 2002 app to become useless. In CE 4.2, my application comes up in full screen, but as soon as I click anywhere in the screen, the menu bars appear again, and for some reason, I can't even exit my application anymore, buttons click, but do not seem to process messages, as the buttons animate, but do not seem to process the on_click messages. Anyway, those are specifics to my source code and the above mentioned base class I think so in general: Can someone just tell me how to, or reference me to some resource, where I can make full screen DIALOG BASED apps, which work on both PPC2002 (CE 3.x) and PPC2003 (CE 4.2) ?

    - update ComboBox: flicker problem I have installed SP2. I have a screen with many Controls (setting some property values), one of them being a ComboBox. At some stage I should update the DataSource and SelectedItem of the ComboBox (when the user change a setting with another Control) the problem is even thought I change this 2 property one after the other, in the same event handler, my combo flicker. when I set the DataSource it redraws, then I set the SelectedItem it redraws again, which looks messy. Is there a way to do that in a clean way, from the user point of view ? Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18575

    - MessageWindow Consternation with HTMLControl I am looking for some thoughts on this. I have successfully gotten the HTMLControl to work using C#, and it is displaying HTML and receiving messages nicely. Unfortunately, I am not able to receive notifications from the HTMLControl. In an attempt to support this, I added a private MessageWindow derived class to the control, instantiating it in the constructor (of the control). Unfortunately, I am not receiving any messages from the HTMLControl. I do receive a single message on the initial load of the form (13) but not from the handle of the display window the control is using. I have not found much documentation on the MessageWindow, aside from the NotifyIcon example - which I followed. I thought that adding notifications would be rather simple when looking at that code. So, I am looking for thoughts on how to debug this - or where to look next. My options seem straight forward: 1. The control isn't producing messages and needs some initialization to do so. 2. It is producing messages but not directing them to where the MessageWindow can receive them. 3. The MessageWindow should be receiving them, but isn't properly setup to do so. I other posts people have referred to CESpy, which I am not familiar with, but am currently attempting to locate. Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18520

    - VS 2003 freezes when bringing up GUI from code this is -really- weird. i built a GUI yesterday that included buttons, text boxes, labels, a menu, image list, and picture boxes. nothing fancy, just basic stuff. when i tried to open it today VS 2003 just froze. but when i create a new project, copy over my old .cs and .resx files, and then bring up the GUI editor and the source code, it's fine. unless i exit w/ the GUI editor still open, and try to open it again, then i have the same problem. VS 2003 also freezes when i open the old project and i don't have the GUI editor open, but then try to bring up the GUI editor from the source code. has anyone seen anything like this?? i'm running on win2k if that makes a difference. thanks in advance.

    - accessing VC ActiveX from .NET Hi All, I have created an ActiveX control using VC 6.0. One of the interface implements a method which takes in VARIANT FAR* as the parameter. Iam unable to call this method from C#(.NET 2003) no matter what.. I can call the same method from VB 6.0. I have been bogged down by this problem for quite some time.. I dont have a clue what to do.. The funny thing is that I created a VB stub (again an ActiveX with method taking byref Variant), which calls the earlier mentioned VC activex method with the parameter passed to it. If I call the above VB method from C# using "ref Object" param it works fine!!! Following is the code: C# static void Main(string[] args) { VBActiveX VB = new VBActiveX(); VCActiveX VC = new VCActiveX(); Object OOO = new object(); VB.TryThis(ref OOO); // This Works!!! VC.TryThis(ref OOO); // This gives Exception "Catastrophic failure" } VB6 Dim VC as New VCActiveX; Public Function TryThis(ByRef A As Variant) VC.TryThis(A) ' This Works!!! End Function VC6 short VCActiveX::TryThis(VARIANT FAR* Var) { MessageBox( "What is Wrong???", NULL, MB_OK); return 0; } Similar to this problem, I have a third party ActiveX (VC6) which has a metthod with the same signature(VARIANT *). On calling this method from C# an exception "Type Mismatch" is raised, where as from VB6 it works alright???? So where am I going wrong.. thanx a million in advance Niranjan Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18480

    - Send a file over a TCP network connection Hi, I posted a question a while back relating to sending data over a network, and was told to go and look into how networks send data. I know that TCP can not guarentee the order in which data is delivered to a device. In light of this, I have a problem which I can not find a way out of: I need to send a file of around 4-5Mb over a network. To prevent communicaiton thread being locked, I was attempting to segment the data into 8k segments of data to be sent. In the header of each segment, I was attaching a 4byte integer representing the segment number, which will allow the reciever to place the data in the relevant position in the output file. Occasionally the client decodes the segment identifier into a bizzare value (last time I tried this, I was expecting to see segment number 234, and recieved -432352 or similar). However, this is not working,and the data being written out to a file at the reciever is not the same as the input data at the server. Why would this be? Please can anyone shed any light on this matter, or show me an example of how I should send the data/ensure that the data at the client end is pieced together correctly? Many thanks for any help - I am very confused by this matter. David Tag: ANN: MSDN P/Invoke Article Tag: 18478

    - Usual Values for WebService.Timeout? Hello NG! The default for the timeout of an WebService is 100 seconds. I think, this is a long time to let the user know, that the server isn't reachable (with the specified url). So what are usual values in a scenario where mobile devices connect to a server over the internet? I thought of maybe 20 seconds? In my experience thee timeout-value affects only the allowed time to get the first contact to the server. Afterwards it isn't important, how long the WebMethod takes for calculating the result, isn't it? Do client and server 'talk' to each other while the result is calculated?

Greetings,

A new article is available on MSDN. The sample is a collection of popular
P/Invoke declarations with test methods and a test Form to show how to use
them. This library and article will be updated regularly with new content.

Enjoy!
