    - MdiWindowListItem - Is this a .NET bug??? Hi, I think I've come across a bug in the framework. It is to do with the MDI behaviour of the MenuStrip control. From my understanding once the MdiWindowListItem property of the MenuStrip control has been assigned to a ToolStripMenuItem it should assume the responsibility of tracking all MDI children that are opened/closed. This behaviour seems to fail in the following scenario If on the FormClosing event of an MDI child (for arguments sake we'll call this FormA) the form Close is cancelled i.e. e.Cancel = true; and a new form created (FormB) and shown/displayed, the original form FormA dissapears from the window list and is replaced by FormB. So when FormB is closed the window list shows no windows but yet FormA is still open. I know this may sound a little confusing, so I've knocked up a small harness (see link below) which reproduces this behaviour. 1. Open up the solution and start the solution 2. From the File menu select new (creates a new MDI Child window. NOTE: at this point the window list is OK) 3. Close this form by pressing the X (a 'New Mdi Child 1 Dialog' is created. NOTE: at this point the 'New Mdi Child 1' entry in the window list has dissapeared) 4. Press the Cancel button on the 'New Mdi Child 1 Dialog' to close this form http://development.gnitouch.com/MdiWindowList.zip Thanks in advance Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98848

    - Displaying chm help file in Citrix Environment Hi, Trying to do something very simple, just display the application help file associated with an application. I've set up the Help Provider, the HelpNamespace property is simply the name of the file so it is always looking for it in the same directory as the program. I am calling with the following code.. Help.ShowHelp(this, hpMain.HelpNamespace, HelpNavigator.TableOfContents); This works absolutely fine on my development machine. This also works fine on a Citrix server where I am in the local Administrators group. However, this does not work on servers that make up our farm (I don't have admin rights on these). I've wrapped the above code in try|catch blocks, added logging etc....the code is simply called and nothing happens. No exceptions are raised and the help file is not displayed?? What could this be, a permissions issue?? Any ideas? Thanks Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98844

    - Regular Expression Hi All, I have a textfield which accepts a name. I am validating the text field using the following statement Regex.IsMatch(txtFirstName.Text, ("^[a-zA-Z\-\.]")) The validation requirement is that it should not allow numbers or any special characters. But the above regular expression still accepts special characters and numbers. Can you suggest the correct regular expression? Thanks in advance Jyoti Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98840

    - Loading a form from another project Hi, I created a form in a project & wish to use it in another project. I Right click the project in the project explorer, & choose Add, then I choose Existing item & navigate to the FormMyForm.cs file. I do not link the file; it is a new item. I add it to the project & can see it in the project explorer, however, intellisense doesn't recognise it as being part of the project. I cannot instanitate it because it doesn't 'exist' in the project. I save & rebuild but nothing changes. This works with class files. Why not forms? Is there something I've missed? Thanks in advance for any ideas. Ant Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98832

    - DataGridComboBoxCell manual initialization Hello, I have an unbound DataGridView, one of the columns of which is a DataGridViewComboBox Column. The combo box contains several entries that the user can choose from. I use this grid view to accept data and save it to a file. Later the user can edit data as well. While displaying existing data, I try to set the combobox cell index to one of the existing values of the combo box items, but this doesnt work at all. The underlying pseudocode : during initialization - get the underlying combobox control of the cell set the ComboBox.SelectedIndex to the index corresponding to the item for which we have the value. Any help is very much appreciated. thank you. Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98831

    - J# rookie: how do I navigate between forms in an application??? I have several Windows Forms that are supposed to work together in one application. The initial form is a main menu with different buttons that, when clicked, are intended to open another form in the application. For instance, there is an "Administration" button that should open an Administration Menu form; there is another button entitled "Data Entry" that should open a Data Entry Menu form. I have designed all the individual forms for the application, but I don't know the code to use in the click event handlers that will result in the desired form to be opened after a particular button is clicked. For instance, what code would I place in the Admininstration_Click event handler that would result in the Administration Menu form opening if the user clicks the "Administration" button? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks to anyone who responds! Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98825

    - Help Visual C++ 2005 Express MVP's and experience programmer's only please!... I need to get the number of lines in a textbox so I can insert them into a listview. The text comes from my database and is unformatted. I display the text to my user in the listview. The textbox I create logically in the program, and I initialize the correct properties for a normal multiline editor. When the user changes the column size then I reload the lines accordinally. The problem I am having is when I get the lines property which is a array<^>^(). The lenght is always 1 no matter how many lines are in the textbox. In MFC when the lines are wraped the new line character is automattically inserted, but here it's not. Can you help me solve this problem? I would really appreciate it!

    - Help1................... Visual C++ 2005 Express MVP's and experience programmer's only please!... I need to get the number of lines in a textbox so I can insert them into a listview. The text comes from my database and is unformatted. I display the text to my user in the listview. The textbox I create logically in the program, and I initialize the correct properties for a normal multiline editor. When the user changes the column size then I reload the lines accordinally. The problem I am having is when I get the lines property which is a array<^>^(). The lenght is always 1 no matter how many lines are in the textbox. In MFC when the lines are wraped the new line character is automattically inserted, but here it's not. Can you help me solve this problem? I would really appreciate it! Thanks!... -- Eric Miller Tag: Ctrl+Enter on a combobox automatically selects item beginning with Tag: 98789

Does anyone know why pressing Ctrl+Enter (with the focus on the combobox)
automatically selects the first item in the combo beginning with the letter J?

Surely this has to be a bug in the combobox. The problem can be reproduced
by simply creating a new Windows Application, adding a new combobox onto
Form1, setting it's style to DropdownList and pasting the following code into
Form_Load:

ComboBox1.Items.Add("Motorbike")
ComboBox1.Items.Add("Car")
ComboBox1.Items.Add("Jeep")
ComboBox1.Items.Add("Van")
ComboBox1.Items.Add("Tank")

ComboBox1.SelectedIndex = 0

Whichever item you have selected, pressing Ctrl+Enter causes Jeep to become
selected. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Professional (VB) on Windows 2000
Professional, but I've reproduced this on VB6 and Visual Studio .NET 2003
(VB) as well.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Colin
