    - Running a process from a Windows Service App I have a service that I want to start a process to run another process.

    - Inherited controls in worng location Please can you explain the following... I create a new form and add to it the following objects: a MainMenu, A MenuItem, a PictureBox and a Button. I change the button properties so that it is anchored BottomRight. I then create another form which inherits from the first. And I add to it another Button object. I then build my project. After the project has been built the first Button object's location moves up by one pixel! With some experimentation I've found this happens with other objects too but equally, in some circumstanmces, if doesn't happen at all. Can you explain why and whether there is a solution?

    - Toolbar icons I have a toolbar on a windows tab control tab page which is on a form. I have added three buttons with icons via an image list. The icons display correctly in the VS and the first time I compile from the runtime. But when I compile again they vanish from the runtime but still appear correctly in the VS. I have another form where they display correctly but the toolbar is on the form itself, not sure if this is the problem. Any suggestion on how to get the toolbar icons to display correctly?

    - Determining color on initial load of TreeView I have a TreeView control where I am populating the Node list from a database. In the population routine, I am setting the backcolor and forecolor for each node. However, on the initial TreeView load, the first node is "selected" using what appears to be the default Windows "selection" color. I would like for the node that is selected to be the inverted colors that I have set (so that if a node's backcolor is red and forecolor is white, when selected it would be backcolor white and forecolor red). Question: How can I override or change the node "selected" color from the default Windows "selection" color? Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86229

    - Binding property with CancelCurrentEdit Hi, I have a text control bound to a column that is of type Decimal. I am doing the validation myself to see if the user typed in something invalid, calling CancelCurrentEdit and cancelling the validation event. If the user typed in something that is not a number, such as 'abc', then doing this works. The old value stored in the data source is popped into the control. However, if the user typed in something that is a legal number, but outside the set of legal values as I have determined, and I try the exact same thing, the data source retains the old value, but the control is not refreshed to match the datasource. So if the user types in '11', but due to business rules this is invalid, and I would like to cancel the edit, the datasource retains it's previous value, but the input control on the screen still says '11'. What is going on here? Any ideas on how to fix this? Other then manually changing the text of the control, which I would like to avoid since it will mean reparsing the item, and committing it as a change to the row - when in fact no change took place.

    - New to WindowsForms Hi I am learning windows fomrs and started with the sample in the quickstart tutorials and I am not able to display the control on my aspx page. I created a control library with one simple control having a panel and a button. panel's visible property is false by default and I added color to panel. On the button press event , I set the visible property of the panel to true to show the panel. This control is created as test1.dll and then added to a web application and added to aspx page as an object and calling with the classid property to display the control. I have also set the objects property "VIEWASTEXT' . The problem is that the aspx page does show the placeholder but does nto display the control. what am I doing wrong? Please advice. thanks sam Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86217

    - RichTextBox hi, In VB6 we usedt to have property called selBold,selItalic etc on RichTextBox.In .NET , we no longer have such properties . Setting SelBold etc to true/false did all our work. How can we achieve such in .NET.Main problems occur we want to format text of mixed fontStyles. for example,Some part of selection are Bold , then Italic then Underlined+Italic and nowI want to bold them all. Obviously , there is no single step to achieve this in .net. So,Do I am required to traverse each character of the selection and change their fontStyle ? that will consume a lot of time.. please give me some insight on the same. I will be thankful if anybody please provides me with some information on how to achieve the same. sanjay singh Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86215

    - problem with updating data source Hi folks, I've connected to the SQL backend using OdbcConnection. After fetching data I present it in DataGrid control. When I want insert a row, I create DataRow and pass it into DataSet.Tables[tabIndex].Rows.Add() method directly. Database is updated (previously established InsertCommand is called) and everything looks good. But in what way should I update a row? I can change its fields in DataGrid but when i call DataAdapter.Fill(DataSet, "tabName") method, nothing happens. Of course I defined proper UpdateCommand. Is there a need to create some special connection between DataGrid and DataSet? Currently the only connection I have is set up in class constructor manually: DataGrid.DataSource = DataSource.Tables["tabName"]; I use above class names instead of names of my objects, of course. When I used VS 2003 .NET, I can set up everything automatically and I saw there appeared some mappings. But I even don't know between which objects they were. Currently I work in Visual C# 2005 beta 1 and many parts of my work I have to accomplish in code editor. In what way should I update my database while working with DataGrid object? Many thanks in advance, Rafal Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86213

    - Context menu and keyboard hooks Hi, in my application I want to react to certain keys when a context menu is showing. So I installed a keyboard hook, but now whenever a key is pressed when the menu is showing, the application crashes and sometimes throws a NullReferenceException in system.windows.forms.dll. I assume that the hook somehow messes up the context menu's message loop or something like this. My code goes like this: <code> ... private int keyHook = 0; private delegate int HookProc(int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam); //Import for SetWindowsHookEx function. //Use this function to install thread-specific hook. [DllImport("user32.dll",CharSet=CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall)] private static extern int SetWindowsHookEx(int idHook, HookProc lpfn, IntPtr hInstance, int threadId); //Import for CallNextHookEx. //Use this function to pass the hook information to next hook procedure in chain. [DllImport("user32.dll",CharSet=CharSet.Auto, CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall)] private static extern int CallNextHookEx(int idHook, int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam); //Hook the keyboard and show the menu private void label1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if(keyHook == 0) { keyHook = SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD, new HookProc(KeyHookProc), IntPtr.Zero, AppDomain.GetCurrentThreadId()); } contextMenu1.Show( label1, new Point(0, label1.Height) ); } private int KeyHookProc(int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam) { if (nCode >= 0) { //my handler code would be here } return CallNextHookEx(keyHook, nCode, wParam, lParam); } ... </code> Any help is greatly appreciated.

    - VB6 DLL versus VB.NET DLL Hello, I would like to know the following: In VB 6 I could create a dll file, place it on a server and register the dll file on each client computer, so all client computers know that the dll file is on the server. This way, I could make small changes to the dll, without having to reïnstall components on the client. In VB.NET, each dll is automatically being copied to the /bin directory in the directory where the executable file is located. This means that the dll file also is located on the client machine. When I have made small changes to the dll, I have to recompile the executable file and install a new version of the executable and the dll file to each client. Isn't there a way to make changes to a dll without having to recompile and redistribute to client machines?

    - TabControl and Transparency (Notes: This is with DotNet 1.1, Windows XP SP2) I have a tabcontrol located on a form where the form has a background image. Ideally, I would like to have the background near the upper-portion of the tabs be transparent so the image of the form will show through. Initially, this seemed to work fine without modification. However, after using it briefly, it is apparent that the tabs flicker immensely when you move the mouse over them. To solve this, I assumed I would be able to owner-draw the tabcontrol, however by specifying this the entire top-section of the tabcontrol remains the drab gray color and draws the rectangle to the right of the tabs. So, this seems to work even less than had I let the control draw itself. Doing a quick newsgroup search, I found two threads where this has been reported back in 2002 and a Microsoft representative posted that this was a bug that would be addressed. Being that this is almost three years later, I am hoping there is a known workaround other than overriding OnPaint and OnPaintBackground (or at least an example of how to sucessfully override these, as this can be a daunting task). Newsgroup posts from 2002 for reference: http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework/browse_thread/thread/9f25dc16b97efebf/e01dc8403fadc8e1?q=%22dotnet%22+tabcontrol+transparency&rnum=1#e01dc8403fadc8e1 http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb/browse_thread/thread/7404c7a51763a57b/c80ffc9efc71243c?q=%22dotnet%22+tabcontrol+transparency&rnum=4#c80ffc9efc71243c Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

    - Parse event of Binding Hi, Reading the documentation, the Parse event of the Binding for the control is supposed to happen after the Validated event, after EndCurrentEdit is called or when the Position changes. I have breakpoints in Parse, Validating and Validated handlers. In my case, I am typing something into a field, then switching focus to another control. So reasons 2 and 3 do not apply. As soon as I switch focus to another control, Parse runs. Validating and Validated run later. Why is this? The documentation says that Parse is supposed to run *after* Validated, not before. Any ideas? Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86177

    - DataGrid simple question It is probably a very simple question, but I can't find a right DataGrid property that prevents the user from adding new rows. Of course the 'ReadOnly' property does it, but the grid cannot be read only, since the user should be allowed to edit existing rows. However, when I leave ReadOnly set to false, that an empty row is appearing on the bottom of the grid so that the user can add new rows, which is what I don't want.

Dim fi As New FileInfo(fle) 'Don't try to read while still being written Do While fi.Length <> sz s = TimeOfDay.Second Do While TimeOfDay.Second = s Loop sz = fi.Length Loop ...but that's going wrong on the sz=fi.length line (not immediately, but intermittently)... telling me that the file doesn't exist. Does anyone have a better way of approaching this? (...and no, the sensible answer of getting the data provider to add the creation of a 0k control file at the end of the download isn't an option.)

    - Background process as delegate I have a winform that will start directly from the scheduler. The program will perform a batch process and put status messages on a winform. I start up the back ground process as a delegate directly in my winform constructor after InitializeComponent();. Is this a good idea or is there a better way? Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86163

    - Datagrid row-specific tooltips Anyone know how to get a tooltip on each row of a datagrid ? The tooltip text must be configured depending on the row that the mouse is hovering over, and the hover timer must be reset when the user is moving the mouse over the rows of the grid (but not necessarily moving off the grid). No matter what I try I cannot get this to work ! Not using the grid's tooltip property anyway, but perhaps there is a better way. Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86156

    - Databinding and Validation with UserControls Hi folks, I've got a Form with several Controls. One of it is a UserControl. Then I have put some DataBinding to the Controls with control.DataBindings.Add(...); Know there is some strange Behaviour: Fist: When I change to the UserControl (by clicking in the control), it doesn't cause validation on the other control. Only if I change to another Control the validation is occurs. The UserControl has a Property CausesValidation wich in the Designer is set to true. Second: I've got some problem to put the Changed value back to the DataSource. How can I get sure that the changed value of the DataBound Property is put back to the Control?

    - Custom Control Sizes in constructor *and* parent form If I create a custom control that's 200x200, then drag it into my main form, the designer adds code to set the size. This means if I open the control, and change its dimensions, I have to also remove the ".Size = x" line in InitializeComponent of the parent form! Is there any way to stop properties like size, font etc. being duplicated in the form, when they're all already present in the controls constructor?

What I need is to change the default application icon (the one that is seen in windows explorer) to my icon. I tried: - Look for 'application icon' in project settings - no luck, suppose this option is available only in C# or VB projects. - Changing app.ico to my icon: this works fine, but this changes only 32x32 icon, but in list view in explorer this changes to default 16x16 icon - Using /win32icon:myicon.ico as an option of compiler (set in project settings) - it does not recognize this option as known option.

    - At what point does the MDI parent become visible? I want to put code that executes only once at the first available point after the MDI parent form is visible so I can give feedback to the user while the application is retrieving configuration data from a database and doing other setup work. The _Load is too early because the form is not yet visible, and _Activated seems not well suited because it fires too frequently. The closest I've come is to use _Activated with a Boolean set after the first call so the setup code doesn't execute, but it still seems ill-suited. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    - Creating a 1bpp mask from a byte array Hi First of, I am posting to this newsgroup as it seemed best suited even though I am writing C++ for a standard Windows application. The application uses GDI+ which forms the basis of the System.Drawing namespace...anyway here goes: I am trying to create a 1 bit per pixel mask to use as an overlay. The data for the mask i generated dynamically based on user input and is available as a byte array. I get the first failure when trying to create the mask bitmap, the code is a follows: /** * Utiliy method, creates a mask bitmap and modifes the palette accordingly. * @param size Size of the mask. * @param color Color of the mask. * @param pixels The pixels. */ Bitmap* createMask( const Size& size, const Color& color, Byte* pixels ) { Bitmap* mask = new Bitmap( size.width, size.height, ((size.width+3)>>2)*4/8, PixelFormat1bppIndexed, pixels ); UInt paletteSize = mask->GetPaletteSize(); if( paletteSize > 0 ) { ColorPalette* palette = (ColorPalette*)malloc( paletteSize ); mask->GetPalette( palette, paletteSize ); if( palette->Count == 2 ) { palette->Entries[0] = Gdiplus::Color::Black; palette->Entries[1] = Gdiplus::Color::MakeARGB( color.GetA(), color.GetR(), color.GetG(), color.GetB() ); } mask->SetPalette( palette ); free( palette ); } return mask; } Since that didn't work, I tried letting GDI+ create a mask bitmap of the specified size and the copy the pixels into that bitmap. But when I try to display the image I either get nothing or a GPF. My display code is very simple: // Bitmap *maskBitmap; // Defined elsewhere Graphics g( hDC ); g.DrawImage( maskBitmap, 0, 0 ); So it basically just creates Graphics object and attempts to draw the image. The latter fails however... Teis Johansen Tag: Automation - CPL files Tag: 86118

Hi,

I'd like to develop a winform to launch CPL (control panel file) file and
set some values on it.

For example, %windir%\system32\inetcpl.cpl file (this file brings up IE
"Internet Options" dialog) and I'd like to set some values on the dialog,
e.g. "home page address" on the "General" tab, "customs level" on "security"
tab, edit "web sites" list on "privacy" tab, etc. etc. etc.

Is it doable in C#? If yes, how to? If no, any other way to approach this?

Please advice, thanks!

I know how to launch it, but don't know how to set some settings on the
dialog itself.

I am sorry for misunderstanding of your problem.

Anyway, I think this is not the right way to call a window and
programmatically manipulate its interface. I suggest you'd rather search for
the place where system stores this information (for example, the registry)
and update it there.
