    - Autosize Columns in a datagrid Hi, I'm looking for a way to resize all columns in a datagrid after populating it with DataRow objects, depending on the maximum size of the strings in the textbox cells. I tried a run through all the cells and measure with graphics.MeasureString(), but got wrong results. Anyone out there having a clue? Michael. Tag: PDA database is enlarged remarkably. Tag: 49885

    - DLL Problems w/ Compact Framework I have some C# code which I would like to be able to call from a Visual Basic appication. Both the C# and VB applications are written for the .NET Compact Framework. I compiled the C# stuff as a DLL by creating a new C# project as a "Class Library", and then copied the code over. Everything compiles just fine. However, when I include the DLL in my VB application, I get the error: Error: The dependency 'mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=969db8053d3322ac' in project 'VBReceiveSMS' cannot be copied to the run directory because it would conflict with dependency 'mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'. I read in another thread that this means that I'm using code for both the regular .NET Framework and the .NET Compact Framework (see http://www.dotnetmonster.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/dotnet-compact- framework/10974/mscorlib-Error). Is this true? Is there any way in which I can compile my C# stuff as a DLL and run in VB using the .NET CF?

    - Importing XML - Need some help please I am having a problem pulling in XML data into a PPC Compact .NET app and saving it to a SQL CE .SDF file. I get an error message that is simply the name of the first column. I have checked everything I can think of to no avail. My steps in the code: - Create a connection to the SQL CE .SDF file - Create a command for table direct access to the main table - Create a data adapter from the command - Create a data set - Read in the XML schema from the XML schema file I created on the desktop - Create a command for an insert and store it to the data adapter insert command - Add all the necessary parameters using the correct data types - Do a DataAdapter.Update(DataSet, "Table") On this command is where I get my exception. The message is simply the name of the first column. What am I doing wrong??????? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the code. I stripped out all the error checking and such. Also, note I am reusing the Command object and just reseting the properties to what I need. cn = New SqlCeConnection("Data Source=\My Documents\emsw.sdf;Password=") cn.Open() cmd = cn.CreateCommand cmd.CommandText = "People" cmd.CommandType = CommandType.TableDirect daPeople = New SqlCeDataAdapter(cmd) Dim ds As New DataSet("LoadTables") ds.ReadXmlSchema(DataSchema) cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO people " & _ "(RegistrationNumber, LastName, FirstName, MiddleInitial, LocalUnion, " & _ " Address, State, ZipCode, PhoneNumber) " & _ "VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)" cmd.Parameters.Add("RegistrationNumber", SqlDbType.Int) cmd.Parameters.Add("LastName", SqlDbType.NChar) cmd.Parameters.Add("FirstName", SqlDbType.NChar) cmd.Parameters.Add("MiddleInitial", SqlDbType.NChar) cmd.Parameters.Add("LocalUnion", SqlDbType.Int) cmd.Parameters.Add("Address", SqlDbType.NChar) cmd.Parameters.Add("State", SqlDbType.NChar) cmd.Parameters.Add("ZipCode", SqlDbType.Int) cmd.Parameters.Add("PhoneNumber", SqlDbType.NChar) daPeople.InsertCommand = cmd daPeople.Update(ds, "People") <----------------------- Error happens here ds.Tables("People").AcceptChanges() Tag: PDA database is enlarged remarkably.

    - Databiinding to Combobox I am using Databinding to fill a Combobox Display and Value members with info from a table. My problem (below code) happens twice. I call the following code once when the form loads. Form description: Combobox loads with form (and after SQLCE sync) from .sdf file Treeview populates based on item selected from combobox. more happens after this, but I'm confident I have that handled. ------------ Code ------------------- cmbLot.Items.Clear(); string cmbstr = "SELECT ColOne + ' - ' + ColTwo as Display, PK FROM TableOne ORDER BY Display"; try { SqlCeConnection connCE = new SqlCeConnection("Data Source=" + strCEDatafile); SqlCeDataAdapter daNames = new SqlCeDataAdapter(cmbstr, connCE); try { DataSet dsConnect = new DataSet(); DataTable Combo = new DataTable("Combo"); connCE.Open(); dsConnect.Tables.Add(Combo); daNames .Fill(dsConnect, "Combo"); cmbLot.DataBindings.Add("SelectedItem", Combo, "Display"); cmbLot.DataBindings.Add("SelectedValue", Combo, "PK"); cmbLot.DataSource = Combo; cmbLot.DisplayMember = "LotNum"; cmbLot.ValueMember = "PK"; connCE.Close(); } catch(SqlCeException sqlex) { string sqlCEerror = sqlex.Message.ToString(); } } catch (Exception ex) { clsErrors.WriteEx(ex); MessageBox.Show("Error reading data file.\nContact Helpdesk", "Combobox Error"); } ------------ Code ------------------- Then I am waiting for the user to select from the items that populate this Combobox. The problem is that while loading this the OnSelectedIndexChanged event fires 4 times (index of 0). (I'm loading 23 items in my test environment). Then..... once I select an item, it fires multiple times again. This causes problems with the code I want to run when a new item is selected. It runs once ok, but it runs 4 times. Its almost like it is reloading the databinding every time I fire any event on the form. I've traced the event, the "index" change is first, the selected index, then 0, then the selected index, then 0 again. I have used dynamic fills on comboboxes without problems before, but not databinding. TIA for any help Z Tag: PDA database is enlarged remarkably. Tag: 49865

    - Network Logon I am converting an application from Windows CE 3.0 written in EVC++3.0 to a Windows Mobile 2003 device using C# and the compact framework. In the application I copy files from a network share onto the mobile device. On the 3.0 device I was able to enter the logon credentials from a control panel applet prior to giving the device to the users, thus eliminating the network logon prompt during program execution. On the WM2003 device there does not appear to be an equivalent control panel applet to enter the logon credentials so my users are forced to enter a logon, password and domain the first time the program tries to copy files. Do you know a way of pre-configuring the network credentials and/or where they are stored on the system once they are entered on the WM2003 device? They do not appear to be in the registry.

    - Effect of changing computer name on Connection when debugging app I developled a PocketPc App last year and another group in our company wanted to use it. I was charged with the task of creating a slimmed down image of our solution so they would have a head start. When I went to debug the app I started getting connection errors and I started trying to find things in various forums to give me an idea of what to do to fix it. One thing led me to the Windows/NETCFKeys on my mobile device. I realized that there is are 2 files: Administrator.FSDSBrooksR and a BrooksR.FSBBrooksR. We recently changed our computer names when we upgraded to XP and my computer name was changed from FSBBrooksR to FSDSBrooksR. Should I delete the reference to FSBBrooksR and will Visual Studio create a new one when I try to debug it? Is this causing or likely causing my connection problem?

    - Problem with Message Box from Thread I'm trying to show a message box from a thread I'm running. Every time it executes, it takes me back to the main main screen without showing up. Here is what I'm doing: Starting a main window Starting a 2nd window (2ndwindow.show) that in turn starts a background thread when a button on it is pressed. I'm calling a routine in the 2nd Window from the background thread using a delegate. This works fine if I just have this routine update a textbox in the 2nd Window but if I try to have it show a message box, I fail. It looks like the message box quickly pops up and then I go back to my main screen. Any ideas of how to handle this? -- Thanks RonF Tag: PDA database is enlarged remarkably. Tag: 49838

    - Weird toolbar problem... I'm having a weird toolbar problem. The issue is that I've got this toolbar which call "this.Close()" on my Form, by some obscure reasons I need to press the toolbar TWICE before the form actually CLOSES... I have stepped through the code and verified that the code is actually CALLED but still the Form isn't being closed... The form is being showed with ShowDialog() and it doesn't contain alot of fancy stuff. I've got one custom DataGrid control in it, but that DataGrid works perfect in other forms. I'm using the OpenNETCF/SDF in my app and I've optimized the InitializeControls with the "rules" to make it faster. (setting Parent property instead of adding the controls, loading controls top-down style etc...) Form is localized for two languages but I've handremoved everything in both resx files and InitializeControls which don't have anything thing to do with "text" properties (optimization) It seems to me as if the "Close" method on the form is somehow "broken"...?? Appreciate any suggestions... I can submit code, but it's gonna be LONG... (650 lines...) Also I've got lots of forms in my app, many which are way more "advanced" then this one, many ofo the also "optimized" but they all seem to function perfect except this one though...

    - Binary Serialization of decimal types I'm working on an application where we need to persist decimal values on a PocketPC device, but the Compact Framework doesn't support decimal types in the BinaryWriter/ BinaryReader classes, or even in the BitConverter class. Is there some nice, happy way to convert a decimal into it's byte array equivalent through the framework? At the moment, I'm accomplishing the task by using some unsafe code that looks like this: public byte[] Serialize( decimal d ) { byte[] data = new byte[16]; // decimals being 16 bytes fixed( byte *ptr = data ) { *(decimal *)ptr = d; } return data; } Deserialization works almost exactly the same way. Is there a better way to do this conversion, and are there any problems with this particular method of doing the conversion? I really don't understand why every type but decimal is supported throughout the Compact Framework. Thanks much, Chris Tag: PDA database is enlarged remarkably. Tag: 49781

Hi all,

We encouter the problem that some of pda database from end user are
enlarged remarkbly from ~ 70 MBs up to 100 MBs. We've tried to compact
and it becomes smaller of 67 MBs. Thus we have a couple of questions:
- Why have only around 3, 4 pda per 100 pda encountered this problem?
It should be happened for all pda?
- Can we avoid the database increasing so that we do not need to
compact DB?

Thanks in advance,
KNC

automatically - you have to manually compact it. What is the database usage
pattern of the PDAs where you find the enlarged databases?

Hi,

I can see the About dialog of SQL CE Query Analyzer to show "Query
Analyzer: 02.00.441500", CopyRight 2002 Microsoft Corporation.
I am sorry that I don't understand the meaning of "database usage
pattern of the PDAs where you find the enlarged databases?". Could your
explain more?

The most important things I'd like to stress are:
- Why this does not happened for all PDAs?
- Can we know somehow to prevent this problem? (without compact
regularly)

Thanks,
KNC
