    - image in a datagrid column header Hello, I would like to instead of placing text in to the header of a column in a windows.forms.datagrid to place an image instead. Can it be done? Googling doesn't seem to come up with anything like this except for creation of an image column style, which is close to what I want but not quite close enough (as I actually want the column to contain checkboxes). On another similar note is it possible to have multi-line column headers, where the header could wrap in accordance with the width of the column so you can always read what it says (more or less)? Anyone got any ideas. cheers H Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66517

    - Re: Changing backcolor of a checkbox I am trying to change the back color of a checkbox. OnPaint method has a System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs parameter. This is a general paint method for the whole control including its label, checkbox and background. The ClipRectangle property shows the boundaries of the whole control, if this is the first time the control is being painted, or just the area of the checkbox if it is being repainted. So in the OnPaint method do I need to do the following?: 1. First call MyBase.OnPaint, so that the checkbox is drawn as it normally would. 1. Figure out the exact location of the checkbox based on the ClipRectangle property. 2. Paint that location to the color I want. 3. Draw the check mark on that location if the checkbox is checked. Am I going in the right direction? It feels like there must be an easier way of doing this. Thanks for any help. Elif "Herfried K.

    - .NET framework bug in setting z-order When using the "BringToFront()", "SendToBack()", or "SetChildIndex()" methods on a group of child controls, the resultant z-order can be unpredictable when the "Visible" property of the child controls is set to false. Especially when the controls are part of a fairly large set (70 or more) However, when the "Visible" property of the controls is set to true, all 3 of the methods work predictably In my particular program, a panel control was created.... and then a group of ~60-70 label controls were added as children of the panel. As each was added, the "Visible" property was set to false. Then, after all were added, the z-order was re-arranged using calls to the the "SetChildIndex()" method. The resultant z-order was incorrect, and also was not predictable (not the same on subsequent runs of the program -- despite all else being the same) As a quick fix, I set the "Visible" property to true for each child control from the outset, and then used the "SetChilIndex()" method upon the children. Everything would then work fine This was a very nasty bug. Took a few days of analysis/debugging to find it. Hope this helps others who have the same problem Jim.

    - A DotNet Severe Limitation ? I believe I have found a severe limitation of DotNet, with respect to hosting Windows Form Controls in WebPages. It appears this is only possible when the web is configured on Port 80. Any other port and the control will not display. After a couple of days of searching the newsgroups/various forums I have found other postings requesting information on this anomaly yet nobody has found a solution. What are Microsoft doing with this ? It seems a common situation to run on alternate ports, being restricted to the default 80 seems ludicrous. Dave. Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66484

    - DTS packages run from .Net fail I've asked this question before, but failed to get an answer that made sense to me.... I have some code that I stole from MSKB article 321525 that I'm using in a windows forms app (framework 1.1, VS 2003) that I'm having some problems with. Basically, if I try using it on a machine that only has the framework installed, then it fails intermittently. If I use the code on a machine that has had SQL installed onto it, then it works perfectly. Running a file monitor over the machine that works shows that it is actually using the dts files (e.g. dtspump.dll) installed under c:\program files\microsoft sql server instead of just using framework files. It generally works without referencing the dll files the first time after an install or update. Could someone confirm that I really shouldn't need the locally installed dts files - and, if I do, explain how it works after an install without looking at the dlls. and Has anyone else had the same kind of problem with 321525? Any solution? Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66470

    - Label not showing up on gui form called from within load handler of other form Hi: I'm trying to setup a simple message box that displays a message (like "Exiting Applicaton....). It's a simple form with only one label on it, displayed in the center. The label's text is set after initializecomponents is called from the form's constructor. I'm trying to use this in other forms. Right now, in the load handler for another form, I have a warning message. If the user chooses no, I'd like to have the display message show on the screen for a couple of seconds before exiting app. I create an instance of the message form from within the other form's load handler and call Show(). The form displays on the screen, but where the label should be, is only a white rectangular area, with no text at all. Is there some extra precautions needed when calling other forms from within your form application? Any advice and/or help is appreciated. Thanks Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66460

    - Security violation when trying to bring up help Hi, Thanks to the MVPs for all the help the last few days. You guys really saved me. The problem I am currently having is that I am doing the following (C#): Help.ShowHelp(this, "help.htm"); This brings up an HTML page that contains the very simple help information for the application. This help file gets installed in the same directory as the application. It works well on my development machine, but when I run it on a test machine (Windows98 with the .NET 1.1 framework) I get a security exception.

    - disabled textbox I have a texbox which can be in one of three states in my application. 1. enabled, 2. disabled, 3. read only, with a different color background. When switching between these states, going from #3 to #1, I set the backcolor in my program to System.Drawing.SystemColors.Window which seems to be the default back color for windows forms controls. However, once I set the backcolor manually, when I disable the textbox its background doesn't change to gray the way it normally does. It just stays with the backcolor I assigned to it, which is white. Is there a way of assigning the default back color to a control, or undoing the backcolor assignment? Thanks for any help.

    - Problems drawing to a 1bpp (indexed) image. I've been tasked with writing a control for displaying previews from scan software we use. These are scans of plan drawings and are roughly 11000x8000, 1bpp CCITT compressed TIF graphics. I can used Image/Bitmap.FromFile to load them correctly, for display purposes I am creating a scaled render of the original image (so that paints don't have to perform scaling/sampling on every draw) which gets costly enough that we don't want to do it Problem; I modified the code this morning to use the PixelFormat of the source image in creating this scaled image, now I need to draw the original image to this new image. But Graphics.FromImage() throws an Exception for our TIF images because the target image is an indexed image, and .NET doesn't seem to support this I found one other post on the newsgroups related to this problem, and Microsoft's solution was to draw to a 24 or 32bpp image and then (for the original author's purposes) save to an indexed format (presumably GIF being that the post dealt with an 8bpp graphic) That would work great (or well enough) for the original author's problem, but let's do some math 11000*8000=88,000,000 elements/pixel Not knowing how the Image class was implemented for holding 1bpp graphics, I assume this requires 11,000,000 Bytes, ~10742.2 KB or ~10.4 M This we could easily accomodate (memory requirements would be low for this image) According to the post I originally found, the only obvious solution is to create a target graphic that is NOT indexed. Going back to the math this would require 88,000,000*4 Bytes = 352,000,000 B, ~343750 KB or ~ 335.7 M Obviously we can't do this. It's almost obvious we need a graphics object that can work with an indexed image My opening pointed out I am drawing to a scaled surface, so my target isn't really 335MB, it's around 30MB (roughly 8% of the physical 'pixel' size of the document). I must display these, but even this allocation is unsatisfactory, especially since my control will allow zooming in to the original document size of 100%, making the scaled image the same size as the source image Does anyone have any suggestions? Maybe there is a way to scale the image without creating the new image object and drawing it myself? On the same note, can Microsoft drop the $ into the developer time it would take to make a graphics object that could work with indexed/paletted surfaces? This seems like something a fair percentage of developers might need, and if available, would obviously use, so why wouldn't it be done already (except to save time, or meet some design goal/model I may not be aware of) Thanks in advance for any possible solutions, I'll poke around and look for some solutions and post what I find, we were really hoping to nix the sampling/scaling on every draw (panning code) since it was causing notable lag in the application (being that the original document has a massive resolution on it, even a 2ghz machine with 1gb of RAM takes effort) - Shau Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66443

    - Strange Behavior with .showdialog() Greetings, Take the following example of a form and a form launched from within it. Dim frmCredit as new frmCredit frmCredit.showdialog() Now, in the frmCredit, you have an OK box which does the saving of data, cleanup, validation, etc.... On one of the validation checks (ensuring that all required fields are entered) you have the following: Private Sub cmdOK_click(ByVal sender as System.Object, ByVal e as System.EventArgs) Handles cmdOK.Click errorProvider(txtName,"") if txtName.text.length=0 then errorprovider.seterror(txtName, "Enter Name") exit sub end if ......... End Sub Problem: When this validation fails, when the exit sub is called, it closes the entire form, rather than exiting just the cmdOK_Click event. This then puts you back at the original form which would create, what I'd term as an unpleasant user experience. However, should you change the original call to: "frmCredit.Show()" when the data validation fails and the exit sub is called, it returns to the frmCredit as expected. What gives? Anybody work around this with the showdialog? I'd like to use this call, as it is imperative and the underlying form relies on the data that is input on the frmCredit.

    - Simulate Form's ShowDialog with other control (threading?) I want to extend a ListBox by adding a ShowDialog method that will wait (block) the main thread until the user has selected an item in the ListBox (i.e. similar to Form.ShowDialog). I'm not clear about what threads are running behind the scenes in C# (GUI, etc.). How can I block the main thread while allowing the GUI thread and also (if needed) a separate thread to handle the ListBox events. Once the user has selected an item or has selected outside the ListBox, I would unblock the main thread and return the result I already have this working by putting a ListBox inside of a Form, but the dialog (of ShowDialog) takes focus away from the main application when shown (application title is out of focus since dialog has focus). If I can duplicate the blocking mechanism of the ShowDialog method, I will be able to keep all focus within the application. Note: I use Capture to handle mouse clicks outside of the ListBox.

I am looking for a way to make sure that if the user selects a childform or types something in the childform or selects a menu item or even just clicks on something in the app it will not timeout. But if the user minimizes the app and does nothing with it for the preset time or just walks away from their PC for that longer than the preset time that the app will give them a warning that the application is closing. So far I have looked at trying to do mouse clicks and keyboard presses but I can't seem to figure out how to do it without having to write something in every childwindow. I have also looked at Application.Idle but it seems that if something else is going on on the machine like I am working with another application the Applicaiton never seems to go idle until all typeing and mouse clicks have stopped all together. Has anyone come up with a way to do something like this? The timer part is easy of course my biggest issue is how to catch all mouse clicks within the parent form as well as keystrokes but ignore everything outside the app. TIA -Stanley Tag: DataGrid, how to prevent Insert Tag: 66402

    - Localized form name Hello All I want a form name to be changed depending upon the cultureInfo. Whenever one creates a form, its corresponding Form1.resx file is created. I created a file named Form1.fr-FR.resx, and added the string resource for form name. The application compiles fine, but even if I change the Thread.CurrentThread.CulturInfo property to fr-FR, the string is not taken from the new file. Is anything I'm missing Thanx Mahesh.

    - When does the AutoScrollPosition value change? Hello! I have a panel with AutoScroll enabled. After Scrolling I read out the X and Y values from AutoScrollPosition but they are still 0. How come? I need to find out the position of the scrollbars so that I can correct the X and Y values I use in the MouseUp event to show a popup menu at the correction position.

    - default directory c:\winnt\system32? Hello, I have a very simple C# WindowsForms app accessing a file. Framework 1.0 SP2. The filename is used without any path reference. On 99% of machines I tested, the file is correctly located in the applications startup directory. On one machine however, it looks for the file in c:\winnt\system32. I can of course reference the path by using Application.StartupPath, but I would like to know what is causing this, since the one machine is a production server... Any clues?

    - Anchor/dock property I have a forms application which has many controls such as buttons,labels,listviews,text boxes etc. If you set the window size to maximum size so that it would expand to the size of the screen the controls tend to move without any proposion. So then I used anchor and the dock property. I could get some or most of them to appear correctly, but say you have to list boxes in the middle of the screen one after the other vertically how could you use anchor or dock property.

The DataView has an AllowNew property that you can set to False to prevent
user row inserts.
