 - Extending DialogResult or? Hello, I making and Windows Forms program and I have a dialog with two buttons. I have set the DialogResult property for these buttons to DialogResult.OK and DialogResult.No, respectively (however, these buttons are not labelled "OK" and "No"). Settting this property is very convenient, I don't need to write any code determining what should happen when one of these buttons is clicked. Anyway, now I need to add a third button and I guess I could set its DialogResult property to some value (just not DialogResult.OK or DialogResult.No) but one thing that bothers me is that these property values (OK, No, whatever) doesn't really tranlaste well to what the buttons actually mean for this particular dialog. I want to know if I can "extend" DialogResult with some new constants? Another approach would be, I guess is to introduce a new property MyDialogResult and have the user check that after displaying the dialog instead of checking the returned DialogResult. Then I could continue to use DialogResult for my buttons and get click handling "for free". What do you suggest here? What I'm trying to get away from is this: DialogResult res = dlg.ShowDialog(this); if (res == DialogResult.OK) // User pressed the play button else if (res == DialogResult.No) // User pressed the stop button else if (res == DialogResult.Whatever) // User pressed the Save button - Eric Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545938

Server Error in '/BestPortal' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Access to the path "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\BestPortal\Doc" is denied. ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

 - Real difference between Office Interop and VSTO???? Hi there, What is real difference between using Office Interop Assemblies and VSTO? I want to do some tasks with Office within .net: 1. Reading an Excel workbook 2. Creating a Word document 3. Sending an email via Outlook 4. ... I used to use Office Interop Assemblies (Referencing Office Interop Assemblies and utilize Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook namespace) to complete my tasks. But I have some difficulties. In this approach each operation leads to load an entire Excel or Word application. So this is very slow and memory consumer. In some cases that my code encounters exceptions, the WORD.EXE process remains in memory forever... I'm interested if I can Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) to get rid of these entire nasty problems? If not, is there a better way? I want to use these codes on a server that many users may want to read some excel workbooks simultaneously. Thanks: Afshar Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545917

 - "Categorized" DataGridView (windows forms OK, I've really been struggling with the best way to go about this. I have a read-only DataGridView bound via a BindingSource to a particular table in a strongly typed DataSet/DataTable. I can sort, and everything works fine. But, rather than having a column header and then ALL the rows, I want to have the various rows grouped into categories. Categories can have a different number of rows, including NO rows (although the category header should still show). For example: -------------------------------| | Col1 | Col2 | Col3 | | Category1 Title Here | | r1c1 | r1c2 | r1c3 | | r2c1 | r2c2 | r3c3 | | r3c1 | r3c2 | r3c3 | | Category2 Title Here | | r4c1 | r4c2 | r4c3 | | r5c1 | r5c2 | r5c3 | |------------------------------| Hopefull that text comes out close to correct. So ALL my rows are still coming from one datatable, but (despite the fact that I have the rows sequentially numbered) the rows for a given category may very likely be spread out throughout the datatable. The entire DataGridView should still scroll as one large list (individual categories do not scroll independently). I've tried a couple different approaches to this: 1) This is something of a migration from an existing web-based design. So, I thought to best give me that functionality, I could use a FlowLayoutPanel with a separate DataGridView for each category. The first category would have it's column headers off, the others would be turned off. Upon the first grid sorting, I would programmatically force the sort upon the other DataGridViews. This gave me several problems... first the FlowLayoutPanel was a PITA to use. To prevent individual scrolling, I had to get the individual DataGridViews to constantly resize themselves as their container resized/rows were added (text of a cell might wrap). This... sorta worked, but the second datagrid appeared where it was supposed to. Sometimes NEXT to the previous datagridview, sometimes below it. Other problem with this approach is keeping the columns aligned. I wanted the entire object to more or less fill (horizontally) it's container. For whatever reason (I think an issue with the FlowLayoutPanel), the second DataGridView would never size itself as wide as the first. 2) Other option I tried was going back to one 'large' DataGridView. This would give me the columns aligned like I wanted as well as scroll the entire thing together. My thought was, derive my own custom "binding source" which would actually itself a separate BindingSource object for each of the categories (each would have an appropriate filter set on it). It would then be my derived source's job to "concatentate" the lists as necessary to provide to the DataGridView as well as pass on Sorting information to the individual BindingSources. These concatenated lists would contain "special" items in place for the category headers. An event handler for RowDataBound could then detect these special items and change row appearance appropriately. This didn't work out either. Deriving directly from BindingSource, I couldn't seem to actually intercept sending of the list of items to the datagridview. I overrode a couple things (the implemented GetEnumerator(), indexer [], etc). GetEnumerator() was never called. The indexer did get called, but always with an index of 0 (which, comparing to the return value of base[i] was jsut returning the entire DataSet... or DataTable, I forget which - in either case, the indexer was not being used to retrieve each row). Any thoughts about a better way to go about this? Was I heading down the right path with either of these? Am I just completely in left field?

 - Window LostFocus event doesn't fire I have an app that consists of a manager that can launch multiple instances of another window object. These windows are generated from underlying services and have inputs (such as textboxes) that match the parameters of the underlying service. Each instance of a window can then invoke that service. The generated forms are borderless and have transparency. Once I have several forms open, I want to have the ability to show when a form loses focus by adjusting its opacity to 50%. However, the Window LostFocus event is not firing. Any suggestions as to why this could be happening?

 - Pictureboxes moving on their own volition when form is displayed I have a user control that has this structure from top to bottom: Label1 Label2 PictureBox1 Label3 PictureBoxes2 through 11 All of the controls are anchored Top,Left. Pictureboxes 2 through 11 are right next to each other in the designer, with 1 pixel of space between them. This user control is added to a form that has this structure: Form TopLevelSplitContainer TopLevelSplitContainer.Panel1 other stuff TopLevelSplitContainer.Panel2 justAPanel myUserControl aDGV Depending on something happening in the background, it displays the UserControl or the DGV. The problem is when I the UserControl is displayed in my form, it spaces out pictureboxes 2 through 11 and ends up chopping off the right side of the last picturebox. I am adding the UserControl programmatically, but even if I just drop it on the justAPanel in the designer, it does the same thing. If I don't anchor the controls on MyUserControl at all, they don't spread correctly vertically, and they are actually wider horizontally than they would be if I anchored them. When added programmatically to the form, the usercontrol is set to dock Left and Top. If I don't dock it, it seems to center it, which chops off both sides of the usercontrol. Any ideas why my controls are being rendered differently in run mode than they are in design mode? My containing form is a user control, too, by the way, which does sit in an actual Form that has a minimum size and a default size that this panel should fit into if it weren't mucking up my picturebox locations. The reason I have 10 picture boxes is because each one has its own click event. Just thought I'd throw that in there before someone says "Why don't you just combine the picture boxes into one?". Sorry for the cross-posting; I'm desperate. Thanks in advance. RobinS. GoldMail.com Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545849

The text file format is like: Numeric value[space]AlphaNumeric values Numeric value[space]AlphaNumeric values Numeric value[space]AlphaNumeric values For example consider following chunk of actual data: 52 SANZP3118.00Q3126T070533N16CEPXT 96 SANZP3118.00Q7294T070534N17CEP 100 SBHPP3200.00Q16000T070534N18CEPXT 150 SBHPP3200.00Q1000T070534N19CEP 153 SBHPP3200.00Q5000070534N20CEP 159 SBHPP3200.00Q3000070534N21CEP 168 SBHPP3200.00Q111000T070534N22CEP 168 SLHGP375.00Q4000T070534N26CEP 210 SBHPP3200.0Q000T070534N23CEP 569 SLHGP375.00Q23000T070534N24CEP 1000 SLHGP375.00Q162000T070534N25CEP 1010 SLHGP375.00Q4000T070534N26CEP Now what I want to is to find a specific numeric value at the beginning of the line. For example in the above few lines the numeric values are 52,96,100,150,153,159,168,210,569,1000,1010 (these values are always sorted). Suppose I have to search 168. Since the values are sorted I can use the binary search technique to search a specific numeric value. But for that I will have to read all the numeric values sequentially into some array in memory. The other way is sequential search i.e to read line by line and fetch the numeric value before [space] and compare it with required one. What is the best possible way to perform searching in the above mentioned file format. Thanks in anticipation, Regards, Ahmad Jalil Qarshi Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545848

 - For Mr. Skeet. MVP Defined [off-topic] Just a funny qoute I got from a friend of mine, who is a MVP. I got it via phone, in Swedish, but will translate as best I can.. <q> Well it is simple. As Microsoft is a poor company with no assets, or monies, whatsoever; they can't afford to hire skilled people. So they hand out nifty titles to people like me, to do the work for them. For free! Sometimes Microsoft ask me how stuff works. I don't have a problem with that. <q/> Sounds like you Jon. - Michael Starberg Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545845

 - Installer class not working during uninstall Hi there, This may be a little off-topic here but can anyone confirm that they've got "System.Configuration.Install.Installer" working during an uninstall. The "Installer" derivative I've set up works during installation but it's not instantiated at all during an uninstall. I've spent several hours now banging away at this and am no closer to finding what's wrong. It appears outright broken to me at this point. Can someone confirm they've had success with this. Thanks.

 - Controlling compiler output, possible? Hi When creating a windows application you get a specific file and folder structure when you compilte your code. I was wondering what sort of control (perhaps not using VS.NET but other tools and command line) I have to influence the way the output is made? At the moment I would get something like this App bin Release (contains .exe file & .dll files) Images Resources Would it be possible to get the output to App Images Resources .exe and .dll files ?? If so, then how would it be solved with files pathes? Atm you have to use something like Path.Combine(Environment.CurrentDirectory, "../../Resources") to step up in the folder hierarchy to get from your exe to your files.. would be much nicer if I could use root relative paths such as Path.Combine(Environment.CurrentDirectory, "/Resources") Then a bit more advanced.I think I've seen this in an article before but is it possible to compile all the dll files into my exe file? So I only have App Images Resources myapplication.exe instead of App Images Resources myapplication.exe somedll.dll someotherdll.dll yetanotherdll.dll ??? Thanks!

 - WPF - Closing Application Everyone: When working with winform applications, you could check the reason for closing the window. As in this example: private void MainForm_FormClosing(object sender, FormClosingEventArgs e) { if (e.CloseReason == CloseReason.UserClosing) { if (CloseApplication()) Application.Exit(); else e.Cancel = true; } } Now, e doesn't return a closereason. Is there anyway to check why the window is closing? Thanks, Dale Williams Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545825

 - Linq deferred loading doesn't seem to work Hi, I have an Association on my table; the association doesn't seem to load. Here's the association: private EntityRef<Shared.Employee> createdBy = default( EntityRef<Shared.Employee> ); [Association( ThisKey = "CreatedById", IsForeignKey = true )] public Shared.Employee CreatedBy { get { return createdBy.Entity; } set { createdBy.Entity = value; } } I try to access the association like this: createdByName = myClass.CreatedBy.LogonName; // Shouldn't this cause CreatedBy to load? Instead I get a NullReferenceException. CreatedById is a valid value and a record does exist, but Linq never seems to even bother executing the select to load the Shared.Employee instance. Any ideas?

 - .NET custom security: still possible? Hi I'm new to ASP.NET (from classic ASP) and wasn't aware of the Forms Authentication security when I started working on a website. So I built a login page that stores a CustomUser object in the Session, and then I put a login check in the Master Page codebehind, Page_Load event, which redirects to the Login.aspx if the login check fails. I realise NOW that I should have gone th Forms Authentication (using web.config) route, but I dont have the time to change this now - I have to deliver the website today. I can come back later and change this. So FOR THE TIME BEING, how can I get my custom security system to work? The problem is, I have just put some code that uses the Sessions CustomUser object - into the Page_Load event on one of my access- restricted pages. But now I see that the Page_Load event of the content page fires BEFORE the Master page login check. I tried moving the login check to the Init event of the Master Page, but the content page's Page_Load event still got executed. So I guess what I'm asking is, how do I (and where do I) add code that can check a Session object, and can then redirect the user WITHOUT executing the rest of the Page_Load (or any other such events)? Much appreciated. Sean Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545796

 - Comparing Type variables I have a questions regarding comparing types. Suppose I have the following classes: class class1 { } class derivedClass : class1 { } derivedClass myObject; I now have a function that takes a Type as a parameter bool TestType(object o, Type typeToTest) { // accomplish something like return (o is typeToTest) return o is typeToTest; // This won't work because typeToTest is a variable and not the actual type but I want to be able to check if o is derived from the type supplied. return o.GetType() == typeToTest; // This doesn't work either because it only checks if the object is of the given type but not if it can be casted to the given type. } bool result = TestType (myObject, typeof(class1)); Thanks Jeronimo Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545795

 - Queuing Up Threads - Thread Works Until Needing Resource From Other Hello: At work we have run into an interesting "need". We have a bunch of customers whose calculations affect one another. Now, to this time, we have never and we may never have a scenario where two customers affect one another. So, right now, our system can handle A affecting B. However, we may someday need to handle A affects B and B affects A. Of course, neither need to be totally calculated for the other to run. Ideally, it would be nice to have a list or queue of customers, each calculating in a different thread. At some deterministic point in a customer's calculation, we would check to see if they are affected. It would be nice to tell the thread to simply STOP. We could simply place the paused thread at the back of the queue. Whenever its turn came around again, it would be "guarunteed" that it could progress, so we just unpause it. In the current system we have to do a long, slow SQL to order customers. However, this ordering doesn't handle inner-dependencies. I would like to try to replace the slow SQL with this method, gaining the benefit of solving the inner-dependency issue at the same time. The only negative of doing things this way is the memory sitting around in the inactive, partially completed thread. However, due to some refactoring, my code only generates a very small memory footprint until later in the calculation. Also, the number of inner-dependencies will be small, so that isn't an issue (today). How can I achieve my goal? Is there a way of doing this without identifying the affecting customer? I just want to keep it simple by putting the paused thread after all other threads. if it's not that simple, let me know. Thanks, Travis Tag: Calling a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C# Tag: 545789

 - Windows Mobile - C# Express possible? Windows Mobile - C# Express possible? John Kennedy's blog [URL: http://blogs.msdn.com/johnkenn/ ] seemed to hint that Windows Mobile software development was capable with C# Express. However, when viewing [URL: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en- us/library/bb158496.aspx ], it appears that only Visual Studio Standard and above will work. Being unfamiliar with compatibility issues, is it even possible with Visual C# Express 2005+? I would have just checked by installing, but my laptop is super old and subsequently slow -- so it would have taken me hours and hours to install (I figured it would install), and then run into errors (when compiling or referencing assemblies).

I created a basic Hello World type of function and compiled it as a VB6
ActiveX DLL in the hopes that I could call it from C#. When I try to add a
reference to the DLL in the C# IDE I get an error message stating:

The reference could not be added. Please make sure that the file is
accessible, and that it is a valid assembly or COM component.

Is it not possible to call a function within a VB6 ActiveX DLL from C#?
