 - Is there a NumericBox rather than TextBox in C# compact .net Hi, As the title indicated, any ideas? Basically I want to have a EditBox to enter network port number. I had using convertion from text to number, but the results messed up with the following codes; Byte[] f_bytePort = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(textBox_Port.Text); Int32 Port; Port = BitConverter.ToInt32(f_bytePort, 0); Anyone know why I got messed up results? Anyway, if there is a numericBox, then everything is solved. Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52589

 - Ballon tooltip I understand i can use the UserNotification class for raising a reminder dialog box. However, all i really need is a tooltip to appear that let's the user know something has happens and sits in the titlebar until they click OK (although program will continue running) Is that possible?

 - Cannot sync when Auto Identity Ranges Enabled? I have been pulling my hair out with this for some time now: I have a small db which I need to merge replicate with a number of PocketPC devices. NT Authentication is used. If I do not enable the automatic identity range option, the PocketPC clients can connect without error. However, if I enable this (which I need to), the PocketPC user gets a host of errors: 1. (Code 80004005) A call to SQL Server Reconciler failed. 2. (Code 80045007) The merge process could not retrieve article information for publication 'Survey' 3. (Code 0) {call sp_MShelpmergearticles(?,8000000,?)} 4. (Code 4833) Could not connect to server 'SERVER1' because 'SQLAdmin' is not defined as a remote login at the server. SQLAdmin is our Service startup account. It is a member of the Administrator group. The user account being used to connect is a standard domain user account. If I add the user to the Administrators group the process succeeds everytime. I have checked permissions on the SQLCE folder, and snapshot folders and AFAIK they are correct (i.e. the user has write permission). It looks like a permission problem, but I dont know where. It seems the only solution to this is to add the user to the Administrators group (totally unacceptable!). Any suggestions because I am at a complete loss? -- Cheers, James Goodman Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52586

 - [C#] Use a HTC Camera to perform a preview and take a picture Hi, I'd like to use a htc camera to take some pictures and to perform a video capture (preview). I know the Neil Cowburn's dll (http://blog.opennetcf.org/ncowburn/UsingTheIntegratedCameraInHTCDevicesFromManagedCode.aspx) but that dll is starting a new process (Camera.exe).

 - ANN: NLog 0.9 has been released NLog 0.9 has been released! Source, binary and Win32 installer are available for immediate download from: http://nlog.sourceforge.net/download.html About NLog: NLog is a .NET logging library similar to log4net, designed with simplicity and flexibility in mind. The new release includes major architectural changes, new features, speed improvements and bug fixes. A new website has also been deployed at http://nlog.sourceforge.net/ A step-by-step tutorial is available at http://nlog.sourceforge.net/tutorial.html Major changes: ============== * Internal API redesign/rename. "Appender" has been renamed as "Target" and "LayoutAppender" as "LayoutRenderer". This should make it easier for people to understand the basic concepts ("layout appender" wasn't a good idea). Old configuration file format is still supported. Old extension code should require nothing more than a search/replace and a recompile. * Changed the way the configuration file is parsed. Now elements are processed top-down and you can change the order of the sections as well as the elements you reference have been processed before. Speed improvements: =================== * Improved logging and non-logging speed by removing most abstraction from the Logger class. A single non-logging operation now takes only 7 nanoseconds which means 140.000.000 non-logging operations per second). Logging API remains unchanged. Bugs fixed: =========== * Fixed an old bug where appenders were incorrectly combined into a chain. New additions: ============== * Network target (capable of sending messages over TCP and UDP, HTTP to be supported) * Preliminary NLogViewer target and a sketchy, but already usable viewer application. "Chainsaw" target should probably be added as well. * Added LogManager.GlobalThreshold * API documentation, target, layout renderer and filter documentation is generated from source code comments using NDoc. * 100% of public methods are commented in the source code. * Reworked the tutorial and howtos * Reworked the website.

 - DataGrid and DataView question I inherited some code that binds a dataset/datatable to a datagrid. When the user highlights some rows the code loops thru a DataView of the grid to act on those rows. This works fine, unless you first click a column to sort by that column. Then the datagrid rows are not in the same sequence as the datasource table. I'm thinking this is a definite bug in this code, but I'm wondering what the point of doing things this way might have been. I mean why bother with CurrencyManager and DataView if you can just access the elements via datagrid1[row, col]? Here's an example of the loop which seems overkill to me (besides not working if you sort first!): CurrencyManager mgr = (CurrencyManager) dataGrid1.BindingContext[dataGrid1.DataSource, dataGrid1.DataMember]; DataView dv = (DataView)mgr.List; for (int i = 0; i < dv.Count; ++i) { if (dataGrid1.IsSelected(i)) { DataRow row = dv.Table.Rows[i]; <get a field from row here...> } } I mean, if the datagrid got sorted, the underlying datatable or dataview isn't also sorted is it? So highlighted row 1 in a sorted datagrid is NOT row 1 in the presorted datatable or dataview. Am I missing something in at least the intention here?

 - convert ToChar question I am trying to use some special character. When I try to use the unicode hexadecimal number to convert to the character I can only select from Tahoma's character map and maybe a couple of others. I thougt I read that CF supported all the fonts and you could use any charcode to get special character. Am I mistaken?

 - Using ActiveSync (CEAppMgr) with signed .cab files fails Apologies if this is not the correct place to post this message. I wasn't sure where to post it. What am I doing wrong? I'm using CEAppMgr, along with the required ini file, to install a Windows Mobile 2003 app onto my Smartphone. Within the build environment, I am creating a cab file for my app. Using a batch file, for now, I call CEAppMgr passing in the ini file that knows of the cab I've created. It works great! The problem: To enable my app to install and run on 'all' Smartphones, I intend to sign the cab. For testing purposes, I am currently signing the cab with one of the Test Certs. The problem is, that when I sign the cab, CEAppMgr will no longer install my application. I turned on the simple debugging supported by CEAppMgr and found that the cause is that the file size embedded into the cab, no longer matches the actual file size (because of the digital cert). Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a workaround or a better (more correct) way to do this? Thanks in advance. Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52537

 - CF SP3 And Globalization All, I have written a VB.NET application for a CE.NET device with 3 current languages available (en, fr, es). It was running fine unil a new device image was loaded which included SP3. There are currently two issues: 1. If CultureInfo is not specified when calling GetString from the resourcemanager, no culture specific string is returned, regardless of the Regional settings on the device. Workaround by getting CurrentCulture and passing that it. 2. Localizable set to True on the form and text for controls set for each available language. Default language is always used, and when I checked CurrentUICulture, it is set to "en-US" regardless of the regional settings and CurrentCulture. Because both CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture are read-only on CF, there is no apparent way to force it. Not sure if OpenNTCF supports this function, but I had to remove it from the project due to deployment issues, so I do not want to add it back. If anyone else has experienced this or has any insight into it, I would appreaciate it. Thanks, Andrew Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52525

 - Catch Event: PDA into PowerSave Dear Group, I am developing a client-server application with pda's. I use the class Socket to obtain a connection between server pc and client pda. When the pda goes out of range of the WIFI network, then it is succesfully disconnected from the server. But when the pda goes into power save mode, it gets disconnected on client side, but the connection seems still up in the server. When i then send data through this socket in the server, i receive no notification that the connection was closed. (and so the sent message is sent into the void?)

 - Setting the time with opennetcf seems to modify the time zone... Hi, I'm setting the system time using OpenNETCF's DateTimeEx. I get the time, in UTC, from SAP R/3. Often (but not always), the timezone changes a few seconds after calling (or it's visible a few seconds after that) SetSystemTime. The clock in the upper right moves a (seemingly random) number of hours, and the application logs show the same behaviour. This timezone thing is my guess, anyway, could be something else. The one thing I know for sure is that the time we receive from SAP is correct, so either we are calling SetSystemTime incorrectly (unlikely, it's too simple, plus it works sometimes) or SetSystemTime isn't working as expected. By the way, how can I programatically set the time zone? I'm using .NET CF 1.1SP3. The device is an Intermec 750 with PPC2003. Thanks.

 - SQL CE and Getting Data from notebook Hi There I've some trouble on finding and good solution to get my Data from the Notebook to my PDA. I've some data in FoxPro DBF (DBase Like) on my Notebook. ( Upto 50.000 Datarows) What would be the best way to get them on the PDA? I tried to write them to XML and send themn to the pda which schould import the data. But the CF ist very very slow when a XML FIle is bigger then 1 MB. The Comserver could also transform the data into access, excel, CSV etc. I heard that it is possible to let AcitveSync synchronize access db''s between NB and PDA. Does this synch work filebased or datarow based? So I would only have to keep the 2 databases current and let AS the Synch work done. What about performance of an AccessDatabase when it has about 50.000 records? Would it be a good think if i would only make the communication via this access synch and then let der PDA import the files from the access DB to the SQL CE Database? Many questions.

If I use *.txt in the filter property then the dialog is filtered on all .txt files. But if I set the filter property to Archive*.txt is does no filter to only .txt files beginning with Archive. It still filters on all *.txt files. Am I using the wrong wildcard? How should I set the property to show me all .txt files starting with Archive?

 - ListView Control .Net CF Unicode character problem Dear Alex, Greetings! This is in continuation with the problem of ListView Control having problems displaying unicode character. Till yesterday, I was able to display properly Thai font in my ListView Control on ASUS Pocket PC. But today, when I checked my app, it again displays square characters, the same which I had encountered with Audiovox PPC 4100. Now, I'm getting a feeling something to do with .Net CF. Any ideas? I tried uninstalling and installing the APP as well as Thai Software but no luck. Other Controls like combo box, list box has no problems displaying the Thai characters. Any help to resolve this will be appreciated. I was not able to track the previous post so opening a new post. Regards, Dilip Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory?

 - How do I limit a value to 2 decimal places? Kind of a silly little one for me to be stumped on but: I do some math on some values that represent money. The math may result in several decimal places but since it is money I only want to display 2 decimal places on the screen and store 2 decimal places in my text file. How do I limit the value to 2 decimal places. This is usually pretty simple but I am stumped. Am I overlooking the obvious on this one?

 - how do I debug error: InvalidCastTypeException OK I checked the archives on sorting a listview control and from there I read the quickstart tutorial. I duplicated the code from the tutorial, thinking I understood it fairly well, and modified as necessary such as changing the name of the listview control to the name I used for my listview control. On the following line: Dim clickedCol As ColHeader = CType(Me.lvwItemList.Columns(e.Column), ColHeader) I get this error: An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidCastException' occurred in testprogram.exe What the heck does that mean? ColHeader is defined with the following code: Public Class ColHeader Inherits ColumnHeader Public ascending As Boolean Public Sub New(ByVal [text] As String, ByVal width As Integer, ByVal align As HorizontalAlignment, ByVal asc As Boolean) Me.Text = [text] Me.Width = width Me.TextAlign = align Me.ascending = asc End Sub End Class James Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory?

 - Caching Web Service Calls when disconnected. (C# Project) Hello, First time poster here. We are developing an application running on the Pocket PC O/s that connects to a Java application server. We have real time services working. We are now developing code for a disconnected state. On the pocket PC we catch a SoapException, letting us know the system is unavailable. At this point, I would like to start caching pertinent web service calls. My first question is how should these web service calls be stored. As raw XML? How to save these message so I may call the web service again asynchronously? During the asynch call, I still need to make sure it completed. I am thinking I would start a thread that would wake up and attempt to reprocess the first of these cached messages. If unsuccessful, it would go back to sleep. If successful, it would run thru any saved messages and set back to a connected or real time mode. Here is a sample service .... // DimFreight Service ---------------------------------------------------- public void DimFreight(string mode, string freightlKey, string length, string width, string height, out string exceptionCode) { string nowDate = DateTime.Now.ToString("yyyymmdd"); string nowTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("HHMMss"); exceptionCode = ""; Global global = Global.GetGlobals(); // Call Service freightService.FreightService service = new freightService.FreightService(); service.Url = FREIGHT_INTERFACE_URL; try { service.DimFreight(mode, global.GetDevice().DeviceID, global.getEmployee().ID, freightKey, length, width, height, nowDate, nowTime); } catch(SoapException soapEx) { exceptionCode = soapEx.GetBaseException().Message; } catch(Exception ex) { exceptionCode = ex.Message; } } //End - DimFreight ---------------------------------------------------- Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory?

 - Maximum value of v scroll bar or panel size I have used many scrollable forms in my pda application. I was redefining the ui on one form and noticed that there appeared to be a limit to how far I could scroll. The way I usually work on a form with an inner panel within an outer panel is to make the form as long as possible, then make the outer panel as large as the form allows so I can manuever the controls on the inner panel more easily. In VS 2003 designer, this limit is 780. If you try to make the form larger, it just changes the size to 780. Similarly, I can set the value of the scrollbar to 980 but it only scrolls so far regardless of what value is in there. What dictates this limit on the form, the panels and the scrollbar value? Is there documentation regarding this? Are there any changes in VS 2005? Thank you Rob Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52460

 - Display results in datagrid I have a form with three controls, a button and a datagrid. The grid is bound to a dataset table. When the button is pressed, a new row is added to the dataset table. The datagrid table contains 3 int columns, plus an identity column. 2 of these int columns are FK's to lookup tables. In the SQL for the table I used an inner join to the lookup tables so grid becomes populated with the data I want them to see (i.e. text not numbers). When I insert the new row, because the row is uncomitted, the text columns display as null. Once the new rows are comitted they display as expected. I can understand why this happens, but are there any simple workarounds for this, so I can display the data I want? -- Cheers, James Goodman Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory?

 - app will not run from cab install If I use Visual Studios to create the cabs for my app the app runs fine on the PDA. Even on my machine, if I use cabwiz (with the BuildCabs.bat and an edited inf) to create the cabs they also work fine on the PDA. However, if the cabs are created on any other machine, the app will not run on the PDA. I've tried on 2 other machines and the problem occurs with both. Using the same files, though, on my machine it works fine. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Tag: How can you automate the creation of a SQL CE virtual directory? Tag: 52427

I'm having a devil of a time figuring this out. I need to create the
virtual directory to be used by SQL CE RDA as part of an Installshield
installation of our product, but I cannot get it to work properly. It
seems there is no way to have it create the directory with both Run
Scripts and Executables permissions set.

Has anyone done this? If so, any help you can give me would be greatly
appreciated!
