    - Color Problems - could be XP vs Win9x issue? Hello, I have written an application for a CE device. It works fine, but the colors are all wrong. In emulator the colors look correct. However, when I run on the actual device my buttons and panels are all a near-white color instead of the colors I have assigned to them. In the case of the buttons, I have actually set them to Yellow just to make it visually obvious. Again, they look yellow in the emulator, but not on the actual device. The device has SP2 installed, so that isn't the problem. However, I noticed that the buttons are more rounded on the corners and the titlebar is the brighter blue of XP (whereas the emulator shows a dark blue like Win9x), so I am wondering if I am fighting a configuration setting of the device. With that in mind, I went hunting under Control Panel, but could not find any setting that lets me turn off the XP look/feel. Does anyone know if there is another way (maybe a registry setting or something) that I can force a CE device to use Win9x look/feel? Any help is appreciated.

    - Why did the Form Show logic change in CF2.0? Ok, really just venting here, but why did they change it so the form doesn't display until AFTER the Load event processes in CF2.0? So if you have any amount of processing in the load event, nothing is showing until the processing is complete. I used to be able to show a blank form with a wait cursor - which worked well because the user knew "something" was happening. Now I have to put a timer on every page and process it from there. Worse yet, if you throw up a dialog box that just displays a status while a process runs, then exits, that form will never show. You also can't do a form.Show() from the load event of another form. You have to use form.ShowDialog() (thanks Ginny) which means the underlying form doesn't continue to load until the top form closes. Anyway, if you are planning on converting to 2.0, be warned the form display logic has changed. Timers will get around most problems. -Dave Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 68010

    - Time Zone and CF v2.0 Another summer begins and yet again, my code for handling daylight saving time didn't work. I only get twice a year to test this in the field! Anyway,... Is DST broken in Compact Framework v2.0? I have TimeZoneInformation set correctly in the registry: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Time] "TimeZoneInformation"=hex:\ 00,00,00,00,47,00,4d,00,54,00,20,00,53,00,74,00,61,00,6e,00,64,00,61,00,72,\ 00,64,00,20,00,54,00,69,00,6d,00,65,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ 00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,0a,00,00,00,05,\ 00,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,47,00,4d,00,54,00,20,00,44,00,61,00,\ 79,00,6c,00,69,00,67,00,68,00,74,00,20,00,54,00,69,00,6d,00,65,00,00,00,00,\ 00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,\ 00,00,00,00,03,00,00,00,05,00,01,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,c4,ff,ff,ff It is set for GMT Standard Time/Daylight Time. However, i) TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone returns 'false' for IsDaylightTime(DateTime.Now) ii) TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.GetDaylightChanges(2006) returns an invalid date iii) TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone.DaylightName is 'GMT Standard Time' - it should be 'GMT Daylight Time' iv) DateTime.Now returns GMT, not BST It is as though CF is ignoring the time zone setting in the registry... I get the same results regardless of what SetDaylightTime() has been set to, although in general I don't use this 'feature' of Windows CE and keep it off. BTW, the platform is Windows CE v5.0... Everything worked last summer when I was using Compact Framework v1.0. I can't think what else might be wrong other than a problem with CF v2.0... does anybody have it working correctly?

    - Deployment shortcuts Hi all I have a deployment project that is working nicely, but I have a couple of questions. 1) How do I create a shortcut to my application? On the desktop would be perfect, otherwise in the start menu, failing that at least in the Start->Programs list. 2) I have a number of DLLs that can be reused by other applications I develop. I have tried adding the "Global Assembly Cache Folder" to my smart CAB project's file system and putting them in there, but then my app wont run because it can't find them. How do I get the PPC to share these DLLs? (System.Data.SqlClient.dll for example) Thanks very much! Pete Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67990

    - Closing one form: Bring old form to front? Hello I have a problem using .NET CF. If I open a new form with "settings.showdialog" and I stay on the new form for 5-10 minutes, then the old form disappears. If I close the settings-form, then I see the Today-Screen instead of the old form. Must be something with timeout... I now tried to use this: <DllImport("coredll.dll", EntryPoint:="SetForegroundWindow", SetLastError:=True)> _ Public Shared Function SetForegroundWindow( _ ByVal hwnd As IntPtr) As Boolean End Function <DllImport("Coredll", CallingConvention:=CallingConvention.Winapi, CharSet:=CharSet.Auto)> _ Public Shared Function FindWindow(ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As IntPtr End Function Public Shared Function BringFormToFront(ByVal FormName As String) As Boolean Dim hwnd As IntPtr hwnd = (FindWindow(Nothing, FormName)) SetForegroundWindow(hwnd) End Function after settings.showdialog I use: BringFormToFront(me.text) But this doesnt work either?!

Because i can do encryption using that certificate but i cant do the decryption with the same, i have tried in many ways it throw error in API that access the private key from the certificate.And Also this same code works well in Windows application and Encrypted data using dot net compact framework get decrypted correctly using windows application,therefore my code is correct. i have given my code, CspParameters cp = new CspParameters(); cp.KeyContainerName = container;----------i feel Container value might me a prob here.Since the value retrived from API CertGetCertificateContextProperty which deal with private key cp.ProviderType = this.providerType; cp.ProviderName = this.providerName; cp.KeyNumber = keyspec; RSACryptoServiceProvider oRSA = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(cp); clearkey = oRSA.Decrypt(encdata, false); !! it am getting an error: "Unknown Error '80007001".

    - The ComboBox Control Well, I really hope I am wrong, but this control seems pretty unusable the way it is implemented right now. I cannot find a way to get notified immediately when the user commits a selection. The SelectionChangeCommitted, DropDown, Click, MoseUp/Down events are not implemented. The SelectedIndexChanged event is there but it does not necessarily mean final selection since the user might just be using the hard buttons to scroll up and down in the list portion of the ComboBox. Unless I can get notified when the drop down list gets shown and hidden I cannot be sure what exactly goes on. So, am I missing something? Is there some way to detect selection immediately after it occurs? Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67981

    - Notification balloon Hi, For my program I use the notification control to show the user at least an icon or if (s)he decides to, a balloon as wel with some info. In the balloon I have two linkbuttons en the problem comes when the user taps on one of them. One linkbutton is to show a form, the other is to stop the program. After tapping on STOP the notification should go away and a messagebox appears with the question if the user really wants to stop. This is what happens: the user taps on the STOP linkbutton and the notification icon is removed because in the program I destroy it, but the balloon stays and the messagebox is shown behind it. How is this possible, why is the balloon not going away allong with the icon? How can I get rid if the balloon before the messagebox is shown or at least show the messagebox on top of the balloon? rg, Eric Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67961

    - App Launches in the background? I am fairly new to PocketPC development. I am developing with VS.Net 2003. My device is running Win Mobile 2003 SE I have an app that I want to be able to close (not just minimize into the background). I read that setting the main form's MinimizeBox porperty to false would do this. It does, but when I set this property, the app launches in the background (not visible). I have to go into Setting/Memory/Running Programs and Activate the app so I can see it. Sometimes it launches with the topmost portion of the form visible. If I click the visible portion, I can run the app no problem. I do get the message "The program you have installed may not display correctly" message, and I understand how to fix that. But fixing the message does not fix the problem. How can I ensure that my app launches in the foreground? Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67958

    - database connection through Wireless Lan is very slow Hello! The problem is: too slow filling DataSet when device (PocketPC) is connected to sql server through Wireless Lan. Device shows excellent connection to Access point. I tried to copy large files through ActvieSync and through Wireless Lan. Through Wireless Lan it takes about 1.5 times slower. But filling DataSet takes 30-60 times slower then throgh ActiveSync! The table (actualy it is a view) has about 6000 rows. When the divice is connected through ActiveSync the DataSet is filled for about 1-3 seconds. But when the device is connected to PC through Wireless Lan it takes 1-2 or even more minutes.

    - HTML control and non-existing files My HTML control works with local HTML files. In case the user clicks on a link towards a non-existing page, I would like to get a message and create the appropriate file, allowing the control to navigate to the newly created file instead of posting an error message. What I found out so far, that I could do this using the MN_HOTSPOT notification. However, I still have to figure out, how to do this exactly in .NET CF 2.0. But the more important question for me is, would this really allow me to stop the naviagtion, create the non-existing page, and continue to navigate to it, when it is created ? Or would I be rather unable to stop the navigation process ? In case this approach is not applicable, do you know of others ? Thank you. Wolfgang Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67946

    - Problem using slide out keyboard and resize event FYI. I have an application that was migrated to VS 2005 and now using a pda/phone with windows mobile 5.0. The way the app functions is that there is a main menu and other forms are opened depending on the user. This means there may be 3 or 4 windows open. We have our own "x" exit buttons to close the form and the app is designed to close them in order. If you open the main menu, and then select a path so that there are 3 or 4 forms open and then open and close the slide out keyboard, it causes the resize event to fire in all of the open forms and rearranges the order in memory. Thus, when you close the form that has focus, you don't necessarily go back to the form you are expecting to see. Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67931

    - Options when Button.PerformClick is not available? I'm working my way through my first significant compact framework C# app and I've got a question (actually many questions, but I'll just start with this one). It would be very handy in my application to programatically "Push" a button on a form. In "Normal" dot net, I'd use Button.PerformClick, but in CF2.0 I don't have that option apparently. I understand that I could restructure the code and call the same functions, but in my case it would be easier to just press the button. What is the cleanest way to "Press" the button? Ideally it would maintain the same sequence of events as a real button press. Any suggestions? Thanks, John Kelsey Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67928

    - SqlCeResultSet and datagrid Hello, I've read a few times [1] that you can bind the DataGrid to an SqlCeResultSet in a way that when the DataGrid is first displayed only the visible data is retrieved from the (Sql Mobile) database. Further data is only retrieved when the use scrolls the datagrid. I have not been able to reproduce this behaviour. What I've tried is: a) 1. get an SqlCeResultSet by using SqlCeCommand::ExecuteResultSet() 2. set DataGrid::DataSource to the resultset b) used Visual Studios Data Source (with the datasouce designer configured to use the SqlCeResultSet instead of the usual DataSet) to create an DataGrid by drag'n'dropping it on a form Both test retrieved all data from the database before displaying the resultset. So my question is: how can I make the DataGrid only retrieve the absolutely neccessary data from the db and retrieve furhter data only when the user scrolls the DataGrid? Thanks Ben [1] e.g. here: http://groups.google.co.uk/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework/browse_thread/thread/a124ddaac6bc38c7/547330b85d2e54e6 Quote Ilya Tumanov [MS]: "For SQL Mobile (SQL CE 3.0) you can use new SqlCeResultSet class which supports data binding directly. It's really fast if bound to DataGrid because only visible rows would be actually retrieved. " Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67927

    - An alternative for (small) Modal Dialog Box in compact framework ? Hi, I'd like to add to my PPC app a kind of modal dialog window, which does NOT stretch over the whole display. Unfortunately, that's exactly what all new forms in compact framework do by default. (This default rule perpahs made sense with small displays, but currently on PPC with 640x480..?) The only workaround I found so far is to set form.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None; but then the form/window is borderless, has no caption, etc. So my idea is to use WinCE APIs DialogBox(), EndDialog(), and GetDlgItemxxx(). However, I can't figure out how to test this in emulator, because it is not clear in which LIB or DLL these APIs are exported. I tried COREDLL and DLGMGR, but without success. Also, I didn't find a way how to make my VS 2005 PPC project aware of my compiled resource file (res) with dialog window template. I can add it to the project as a file, that's not the problem, but then I would expect to see and be able to use defines from this resource in other project files, but it does not work :-( So I would be really gretaful if someone could post a code snippet, or point me to a doc, which explains this. Many thanks ! Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67911

    - Distribution I have a PPC app I have written, it's going to be installed on a few thousand PPCs within the same company. I have created an installer application in VS for this app. What I want to know is how can I ensure that DotNet V2 + SqlCE 2005 is installed as part of the same installation? I only need the data part of SqlCE, not replication etc. Basically I'd like to have only a single CAB file to install everything, it will make implementation much easier.

    - Menu and toolbar at the same time? I'm new to the compact framework and have some basic questions about forms. I use VS2005 and CF 2.0. 1. When I place a MainMenu and a ToolBar on a form they are both positioned at the bottom, the menu is at the left and the toolbar is at the right. When I add items to the menu the toolbar gets smaller and smaller. Can't I position the toolbar above the menu? 2. If I use a Panel as a toolbar substitute, is there any way I can create a button with an image on it? Button don't have a Paint event. 3. Are there issues with transparency for toolbar buttons in CF 2.0? 4. Is it possible/advisable to get the Window handle to a control in CF and use SendMessage and other API functions? 5. If I switch to C++, which newsgroup is most appropiate for disscusing Windows CE programming in C++ (I can't find any)? Thanks Lars Brange Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67907

    - IO performance WM2003 vs WM2005 Hi! I've a WM2003 and a WM2005 machine and see some major performance improvements when reading/writing to a SD-card using the WM2005 compared to WM2003 machine. The SD-card is of the same brand and the WM2005 machine has a much slower processor 194MHz comparde to 400MHz on the WM2003 machine. The WM2005 machine has CF2.0 installed in ROM, but the application is written for CF1.0 so it shouldn't use and CF2.0 libraries, right? Is this a know WM improvement, or as it something to do with CF (allthough I believe my CF1.0 app couldn't benefit from CF2.0) / Peter Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67904

    - File comparison I am trying to buid an auto update feature for my application. I am implementing it by comparing two files, one from the web server and one from the local. I thought of 3 possibilities which any of them didn't help. 1 - Compare the version of the assembly. Worked perfectly, however I couldn't overwrite (it has a new version) because the file is already in use. And I couldn't unload the assembly once loaded. I also tried appdomain and still can't do because the lack of appdomain functions in compact framework. 2 - Compare the file with GethashCode() which leads to different versions of gethashcode because server side version and compact framework version of that function gives totaly different results. 3 - Compare by the creation time. This one also fails, because lastcreation time of file does not have set property. What else can I do to say that those files are identical and no need to update ?

    - Active Scripting: How to pass ITypeInfo Hi, i am trying to add active scripting capabilities to our (CF 2.0) application. Thus i have to pass an ITypeInfo interface to the scripting engine to make my object visible to it. In the regular framework there's the method "GetITypeInfoForType". How is it possible to accomplish this in compact framework? Is it possible at all? thanks in advance chris Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67900

    - How to overcome the Microsoft bug in datagrid? When I create and assign a new tablestyle to the datagrid (20 columns), then scroll to the right, and then back to the left, I'm left with garbage in the columns.

    - Socket TCP/IP Close Doubt Hi again, At the project I have another problem, I read a lot of posts here about this delay to close the socket TCP/IP, but I want know if don't have any treak to close it immediately. At my case, I open the port that will receive a lot of connections, before all the process I close it with a .shutdown() and .close(), at the clients I close the stream and another things, at this point ok, the problem appear when I want to open the port again it give me the SocketException error numer 10048 that say "This port is in use.". And don't open it, but if I open the port execute the process and close my application, they close the port immediately and don't have this delay, it appear when I open the port and don't close the application. Anyone know if is possible, resolve this problem ? Thanx Tag: non-value for DateTimePicker in CF2.0 Tag: 67887

Is there any way to specify a non-value or DateTime.MinValue for the new
DateTimePicker control in CF2.0? The OpenNetCF DateTimePicker had a
ShowCheckBox property that would allow you to disable the control and set it
to the MinValue. It wasn't pretty, but it worked.

Arggg, the ShowCheckBox property is now gone from the OpenNETCF 2.0 SDF for
the DateTimePicker. So is the BorderStyle property (though I'm not sure
that one actually worked previously).
