    - Forms designer bug Hi I have a simple base form from which I want to inherit the Icon. When I create an inherited form based in this base form, with no added controls, the Icon shows correctly. When I add any control to the form, the designer creates also a resource for an Icon (null icon) and overrides the base form Icon definition. I can correct this behavior manually commenting the me.Icon line, but every time a change a property on any control of that form, the Icon is replaced to a null Icon It is a Bug of the forms designer? Is it reported? Is there a fix Also, does someone knows where we can know of reported Bugs? I have VS 2003 and 1.1 framework Mariano. Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65330

    - Expamding empty ComboBox problem I have noticed the following problem. If you try to expand the drop-down list of a ComboBox (DropDownStyle=DropDown) with no items and immediately attempt to click another control (displayed underneath the combo box, not sure about other locations), nothing will happen. It takes several mouse clicks before you are finally able to select other dialog controls. My guess is that the combo box gets expanded, but since there are no items, the user does not see the list box portion of it, so if the user tries to click a check box, a button or some other control, this mouse click is obstructed by the expanded (but not visible) list box (this is just a guess, so it may happen for a totally different reason). This is very confusing for the customer, because it appears like the dialog is hanging (i.e. there is no response to the mouse clicks). Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround? Thanks, Alek Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65313

    - Control's Validating Event and closing a Form We handle the Validating event for textboxes that are contained in a GroupBox, which is contained in a TabControl which is contained in a Form. If Validation on the textbox fails, we do this: e.Cancel = True Now, when we click "X' in the upper right corner, the form closes. We checked the forms closing event, and now e.Cancel = False. Why is e.Cancel = False on the Form close? Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65306

    - No Touch Deployment Warnings When our smart client is loaded thru the browser, there is a balloon that pops up with the following warning: Microsoft .NET Security Information This application is running in a paritally trusted context. Some functionality in the application may be disabled due to security restrictions. The application works great and is doing everthing it is intended to. The message is annoying and our client is complaining about it. My question is that I want to know if there is a way to disable this without touching the default security settings in the .NET Framework 1.1 Configuration app. The point is not to have the client have to download anything extra to install or have them modify anything. How is this no touch deployment if you do? Thanks Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65303

    - Preventing user interaction while showing a "wait" cursor I have a form which performs some asynchronous code. I want to display a wait cursor when it starts, and hide the wait cursor when it has completed. This part works fairly well, using: this.TopLevelControl.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.WaitCursor; I also want to prevent user interaction with the controls on my form while the wait cursor is displayed, so that use events (except resize and cancel) are blocked. What is the recommended way of doing this in .NET? Thanks, Aaron Queenan. Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65292

    - Has an Event been Fired? When a control is clicked multiple events are fired in order. For example, clicking on a combobox dropdown button fires the Enter -> Got Focus -> Click event. In the "Enter" event handler is it possible to find out if the "Click" event is going to happen? I am trying to autoexpand the ComboBox dropdown when the control is entered. Private Sub cboComboBox_Enter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboComboBox.Enter cboComboBox.DroppedDown = True End Sub But if the ComboBox dropdown button is clicked the Enter event expands the list and the Click event then closes it. In my Enter event handler I was to find out if the Click event is going to happen to decide if I should expand the combo list Example: Private Sub cboComboBox_Enter(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cboComboBox.Enter If Not ControlHasBeenClick = True Then cboComboBox.DroppedDown = True End If End Sub Thanks, Hex Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65288

    - Debugging with Break option in windows forms I am trying to break into the VS debugger on unhandled exceptions in a form. I have tried setting and removing the jit settings in the application config file and in the options dialog. All I get on unhandled errors is the dialog with continue and quit - not with break. Isn't there a way to move from an application with debug build run from within VS to the line raising the exception? I am getting the stack trace info in the dialog which does not help with the condition that I am attempting to debug. Ken Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65286

    - Building My Own DataSource Control hi All, I'm hoping to build my own datasource control, and hoped that someone would point me in the right direction to start. I have already created a class, which accepts a form, a tablename, a connection and a collection of field object (which contain information about which field binds to which form control). I build all this in code, and then the class gets a dataset, binds the controls to it, and allows modifiaction and updates etc. then saves them back to the database. However, I'd like to build a control, which would automate all of this, by getting the fields at design time, and allowing the user to bind the fields and then the user could simply change the connection string at run-time to point to the correct database when deployed. I am trying to kind of replicate the method by which you build bound forms in access. Any pointers to articles, or advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks Alex Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65280

    - Licensing an assembly with components We are developing an assembly that will expose a multitude of components and controls. Many of them are inherited from one another and some of them represent user controls that group some other controls on them. We need to license all major types. We created a LicenseProvider that works very well by checking the design time license and embeding the runtime license in the result assembly. The problem is that if a user uses a large number of controls a separate license for each type gets embeded in the result making the file larger than needed. Also, the process of running the license check for each type might decrease performance a little. So, my idea was this: to create a special class inside the assembly with a static constructor. This means that everytime the assembly is loaded in one app domain the static constructor will be called. I would then run the license check in the static constructor and set a static value to true or false meaning the license was good or not. Then in each type I can simply check the static value and continue or not. Then, in the end result assembly only one license, corresponding to the special class, will be embeded... Considering that all other security issues are taken care of (sigining the assembly, etc...), does this method present any danger? Can anybody think of any security issues? This assembly will be sold entirely and there will be no licenses per type, but just per the entire assembly so this approach makes sense to me... I was only wondering if anybody might think of a reason why this might not be a good idea Thank you! Iulia Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65273

    - Legacy Application Reengineering (Basic to C#) We currently have a financial application running on an HP 3000, written in Basic ( the old kind, with line numbers and single-character variable names, etc) with about 500K lines of code. It uses a no-longer-sold, non-relational, HP-proprietary database called Image. This application has many very happy customers, each utilizing it via terminal emulator software in remote locations. We are tentatively architecting a phased migration to a .NET solution, for obvious reasons. Likely, we would first create a cleaner presentation layer based on WinForms, then migrated business logic off the HP3000 to a Win 2003 server ( in C# code), and finally move the database to SQL Server. But.. none of us have experience with a legacy migration/reengineering process (particularly from such an antiquated code base.) Further, given our meager start-up funding level, we cannot afford to hire expensive consultants who specialize in this area. Does Microsoft provide resources with advice on the reengineering process? Whitepapers? Web resources? tools? Also, would anyone recommend good books on this topic? Or any other websites (other than just Microsoft's)? Are there conversion tools to convert Basic to C#? And, my MOST IMPORTANT question (pardon the all caps)... are there "rules of thumb" for estimating programmer resource requirements for migration based on lines of code, database schema complexity, etc.?

    - Populate ComboBox with a DataReader Is it possible to populate a ComboBox's DisplayMember and the ValueMember via a SqlDataReader in C#? I know how to do it off of a dataset, but I would rather not incur the overhead since it is just a display field that is used to populate other information from the key value (ValueMember).

    - SYNCHRONISING ALL OPEN FORMS - WINFORMS I have a client-server application using ADO.NET datasets where the user can open several forms - and as many copies of a form as they care to - and edit the data on them. How do you synchronise all the open forms when the user changes a value on the currently active form? For example: * user opens a ViewOrders form which shows a list of Orders including the SupplierName for each Order * user opens EditSupplier form which shows a list of Suppliers * user edits a SupplierName The corresponding SupplierName on ViewOrder form should now change to reflect the edit. I need a general pattern for this - there are hundreds of possible fields the user can edit and any number of different forms could be open - any of which may (or may not) need to be "synchronised". (This sort of behaviour is common in most quality shrink-wrapped software.) cheers Andrew -- **************************************************************************** andrewbingham.com tel 01223 514674 (Cambridge) mobile 07970 161057 fax 07970 601283 email Andrew@AndrewBingham.com DISCLAIMER, PLEASE NOTE: This communication is for the attention of the named recipient only The content should not be passed on to any other person.

    - DataGrid and Wheel on mouse Using VS 2003, VB.net, msde... I have a databound datagrid that works fine. The form also has several combo boxes that determines what the datagrid displays. When data is displayed, if you highlight a row, or click on a cell, and use the mouse wheel to scroll down, it immediately gives focus to combobox tab stop 1, scrolling down it's options. I would anticipate the wheel to simply scroll down the datagrid (like hitting the down arrow on the scroll bar), not swich to another control and scroll its options. Any idea what is going on and how to prevent this? Thanks! Bob Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65260

    - WinForms app passes DataSet to remoted type: possible bug Our DAL (Data Access Layer as a dll) is hosted by IIS. We use binary serialization to pass a DataSet into the DAL from a client exe. Our client exe calls GetChanges on DataSet and passes the changes to our remoted DAL. On inserts we have an output parameter for the primary key. After the call to DataAdapter.Update, we watch the insert sproc run and return the output param value. We watch the DataRow change from Added to Unchanged. We watch the source column for output param get set to the outparam's value. The DAL then returns the DataSet to the client exe. Once back in the client exe, the DataRow is still marked as Added and the source column is empty. This is exactly the way it looked when it was sent to the remoted DAL. Now, if we run the DAL locally in a private folder, we see the same results in the DAL. However, back in the client exe the DataRow is marked as Unchanged and the source column contains the output parm value. This leads me to believe there is a bug in the Remoting or ADO.NET architecture. Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65248

    - events in multithreaded application Hi, I want to create a class that creates a thread internally to do some work. It will interact with winforms using events. What happens when the code that is running in a seperate thread raises an event? Will the code in the event handler that is attached to the event run in the internal thread, or will it run in the GUI thread? The MSDN documentation says that all interaction with the GUI from other threads have to go through an Invoke method. The user shouldn't know that the class used threads internally. If anybody has any ideas, article links etc it would be most apreciated. Thanks, Chris Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65240

    - PropertyGrid not updating correctly Hi, I've made a class containing a public int and a public Point. I also created a TypeConverter (in fact an ExpandableObjectConverter) supporting InstanceDescriptorInfo. This results in a nice expandable property containing the integer property and an expandable Point property. So far so good. Further I've found out that in order to inform my control that a sub- property has been changed then I have to override GetCreateInstanceSupported and CreateInstance. Now the control catches the updates. However: If I expand the property in the PropertyBrowser like this: -MyClassProp - PointProp X Y IntProp and then enter a new X value and press Enter then the PropertyGrid somehow gets confused and displays something like this: -MyClassProp + PointProp IntProp Y IntProp Ie. the Point-property is collapsed but still partially drawn as expanded! Collapsing and expanding the MyClassProp updates the PropertyGrid. My implementation of CreateInstance is pretty simple: public override object CreateInstance(ITypeDescriptorContext Context, System.Collections.IDictionary PropertyValues) { Point p = (Point)PropertyValues["PointProp"]; MyClassProp mcp = new MyClassProp((int)PropertyValues["IntProp"], p); return mcp; } What am I doing wrong? Or is this a bug in the PropertyGrid? Regards /Claus Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65235

    - WinApp Deployment Hello All, I am frustrated with the concept of No-Touch Deployment. This was a big marketing aspect of the .NET development model, but there are many ways to do it, and none of them are working for me. The Updater Application Block requires BITS, its own service, a script file, etc. This is a deployment issue to begin with. The 'navigate to an '.exe' file doesn't seem to work on my W2K3 Server, through an ISA firewall. (no idea where the issue is, just nothing happens when I navigate to the URL from my network. It works on the server itself. The server is in my Trusted Zone. I don't want to go opening huge holes without knowing how to approach this). Will W2K3 Server server the EXE over the net by default? Is my ISA Server preventing it? When I do run it on the server itself, I then get security issues related to the fact that my app hits a web service. Is this an effective means of deploying an application that will need to hit the user's hard drive, as well as a database / web service? How would I go about implementing it? Or, am I better to use the Updater Application Block? I have not found any article that details the security side of this, How To, Best Practices, etc. Just a few articles that make it sound so simple.

    - Problems binding control data types to a dataset I've run into a problem with binding form properties to data in an xml file (through a dataset). As it turns out, I can easily bind if the data type of the property on the control is a normal datatype such as a string or integer. If the datatype is not one of the built-in types however, things go horribly wrong. Consider this xml file: <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?> <SettingsData> <one> <Text>Center</Text> </one> </SettingsData> If I create a normal winforms application and add the following code to the form's constructor, it works. I get "Center" in the text box. Here's the code that works: DataSet dataset; dataset = new DataSet(); dataset.ReadXml(@"d:\development\bindtest\form.xml"); TextBox textbox = new TextBox(); Binding binding = new Binding("Text", dataset, "one.Text"); textbox.DataBindings.Add(binding); textbox.Width = 150; textbox.Height = 50; textbox.Top = 50; textbox.Left = 50; textbox.Parent = this; this.Controls.Add(textbox); I hardcoded the size and placement of the text box, but I can easily get that from the xml as well. I encountered a problem when I tried to pull TextAlign from the xml file though. I know that this would require the use of Format, so I implemented that. I changed the xml from above to look like this: <?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?> <SettingsData> <one> <TextAlign>Center</TextAlign> </one> </SettingsData> And I changed the code from above to look like this (changed from Text to TextAlign, and added the convert event handler): DataSet dataset; dataset = new DataSet(); dataset.ReadXml(@"d:\development\bindtest\form.xml"); TextBox textbox = new TextBox(); Binding binding = new Binding("TextAlign", dataset, "one.TextAlign"); binding.Format += new ConvertEventHandler(FormatHorizontalAlignment); textbox.DataBindings.Add(binding); textbox.Width = 150; textbox.Height = 50; textbox.Top = 50; textbox.Left = 50; textbox.Parent = this; this.Controls.Add(textbox); I also added the Convert Event Handler: public void FormatHorizontalAlignment(object sender, ConvertEventArgs cevent) { switch((string)cevent.Value) { case "Center": cevent.Value = HorizontalAlignment.Center; break; case "Left": cevent.Value = HorizontalAlignment.Left; break; case "Right": cevent.Value = HorizontalAlignment.Right; break; } } This event handler looks right to me. I followed the example from the help files. I've made similar code work with other data types such as booleans being coverted from a T or F in the xml file. DesiredType shows HorizontalAlignment. When I run this code, oddly, the event handler is executed three times. Each time seems to execute correctly. Then I get an unhandled exception from the Application.Run(new Form1()); Error creating window handle. Can anyone tell me what's happening and how to fix it? I foresee I'll have the same problem trying to read the font name and size from the xml file. I have a workaround, but it's very unelegant. Here's the stack trace: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Error creating window handle. at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.CreateHandle(CreateParams cp) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateHandle() at System.Windows.Forms.TextBoxBase.CreateHandle() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl(Boolean fIgnoreVisible) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl(Boolean fIgnoreVisible) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ScrollableControl.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.DebuggableCallback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam) at System.Windows.Forms.SafeNativeMethods.ShowWindow(HandleRef hWnd, Int32 nCmdShow) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.SetVisibleCore(Boolean value) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.SetVisibleCore(Boolean value) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Visible(Boolean value) at System.Windows.Forms.ThreadContext.RunMessageLoopInner(Int32 reason, ApplicationContext context) at System.Windows.Forms.ThreadContext.RunMessageLoop(Int32 reason, ApplicationContext context) at System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run(Form mainForm) at bindtest.Form1.Main() in d:\development\bindtest\form1.cs:line 109 tia, brian Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65186

    - No Touch Deploy creating EMF's problem Hi, I have a No Touch Deploy application that I want to create and EMF File and serialize it back to the Server via Web Services. When I test the client application running from a local directory (MyComputer zone) it works fine. But when I launch with NTD from my web server I get a Security Exception in the CTOR of the emf. Is there anyway around this. I have tried several of the different CTORs available and the all have thrown the exception. It doesn't make sense that Creating a metafile would be a security violation. I am using the CTORs with a Memory Stream for saving to, so it isn't a FileIO Security issue. Thank You, -- Paul Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65179

    - CheckedListBox and ItemCheck Event Is there an event similar to ItemCheck, within the CheckedListBox class, that is called after a list item is checked and updated with the new check value? I currently have a method that iterates through the CheckedItems collection of a CheckListBox control. My problem is the CheckedItems collection doesn't have the correct count because of the ItemCheck event occurring before the checked state is changed. Thanks, Lan Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65176

    - weird bug on buttons I created 2 buttons and in the .Text property in teh designer I set one to "load..." and the other to "save..." The "load..." button was fine but the save button was displayed as "... save" on the form with the eplipses BEFORE the text, but the property for .Text was AFTER the text. Really odd. Anybody seen this before on the 2003 designer? Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65170

    - TreeView with tri-state buttons Is there any way to have tri-state checkboxes in the TreeView, preferably without having to use the state icons for that purpose. Does anyone have or know of an implementation of tri-state checkboxes for the TreeView? Thanks, Aaron Queenan. Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65168

    - System.Windows.Forms.ListView: OnItemCheck method called when displaying the form Is there any way to know whether the OnItemCheck is being called in response to a user action (mouse or keyboard) as opposed to the form loading? I have a class which derives from System.Windows.Forms.ListView. Among other features, it enables the checkboxes and overrides the OnItemCheck() method. I have placed this ListView on a form and use form.ShowDialog() to display it whenever the user presses a certain button. If the user ticks any of the items in the ListView, and then presses the button again, the form displays okay, but it calls the OnItemCheck() method twice for each item that was previously checked (once to uncheck, and again to check the item). The problem is, that I keep track of the order in which the user checked the checkboxes, and when OnItemCheck is called it effectively changes the order to be the same as the insertion order in the list.

    - Method System.CodeDom.CodePropertyReferenceExpression.xxx not found. I have a baseform, which contains an own made component that implements the IExtenderProvider interface, so that this component provides properties to the controls in the form. The IExtedenderprovider is kept in a seperate project (project reference). Then I try to inherit from this baseform. When opening the screen at design, (after putting some extra controls on it), all the controls disappear, and in the task list I get messages like: Method System.CodeDom.CodePropertyReferenceExpression.SetDataTag not found. At run time, everything works fine. What could be the problem with this ? Is it a VI bug, or am I doing something wrong ? Thanks ! Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65162

    - controls are interacting even though they have different binding contexts I have a windows form containing a listbox and a datagrid. Eac control's DataSource is a different DataView from the same DataTable Each control has its own binding context. The pseudo-code I use to se up the controls is as follows listBox.DataSource = view1 listBox.DisplayMember = "Field1" listBox.BindingContext = new BindingContext() dataGrid.DataSource = view2 dataGrid.BindingContext = new BindingContext() If I make changes to any of the cells of the top 2 rows of th datagrid, I get a SelectedIndexChanged event raised for the listBox This is driving me crazy for the past 2 days. Is there anyway to kee that event from happening or to test that it is bogus?? Thanks for the help Dav Tag: DataGrid/DataView Display problem Tag: 65156

    - DateTimePicker as ListView sub-item Hi, In my MovieScheduler app, I have a listview with a column of "times" (actually, TimeSpan's) (see http://www.dgp.toronto.edu/~jtalbot/moviescheduler -- 2nd screenshot from the top, showing the list of movies). I want to let the user edit those. So I put a DateTimePicker whenever the user clicks on that column. That's all working fine. My question is, how can I detect that the user clicked "on something else"? There's lots of other things the user can click on -- tabs, menu items, scrollbars, etc... I wouldn't want to have to catch each of those other components' click events... But, the DateTimePicker doesn't seem to have "lost focus" event...?

I have a dataset table. I have filtered it and created a datview which I use as the datasource to a datagrid. That all works just fine. When I edit cells in the datagrid, then update the dataset table, the datagrid displays both the original row and the modified row. I only want to see the modified row. I have tried playing around with the DataViewRowState property. When I set it to ModifiedCurrent, no row is displayed. What am I doing wrong?

Amperr,

Have you tried calling the "AcceptChanges()" method on the dataset? This
might do the trick if I recall correctly.
