    - "line break" disapears in text box after resizing the form I put a text box on a form and set it to "multi line". I use it to show some log information. Every time there is some information, I use TextBox.AppendText method to add a information string and a "\n" into the text box. There will be a line break after the infromation string for the "\n" charactor. But after i resized the form or click some other window on the task bar and switch back, the line break disapears. All the text turns into only one single line. Is there something wrong using "\n" in multiline text box? Is there any solution for this issue? or I should use richtextbox or detail listview instead?

    - Why my NumericUpDown DataGrid Column can't set the value for new r I've make some NumericUpDownColumn class that inherited the DataGridTextBoxColumn and override the SetColumnValueAtRow method as below: protected override void SetColumnValueAtRow(System.Windows.Forms.CurrencyManager source, int rowNum, object value) { try { base.SetColumnValueAtRow(source, _currentEditRowNum, numericUpDown.Value); Commit(source, _currentEditRowNum); } catch (Exception) { Abort(rowNum); } } And also override other methods such as Edit etc., In the numericUpDown_Leave method, I call the SetColumnValueAtRow method. I found it works fine for the rows that already exists in the datasource which bound to DataGrid, but for the new added row, after I set the value and click the mouse to other row, the value of the new row dispears. Seems that it can't add row & set value for new row. Does anyone could help me for this ? Thanks! -- Do or do not, there is no try. Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100693

    - Need *formatted* value from DataGrid...possible? Hello, all. I have a Windows Forms app with a datagrid control, with several custom column styles applied. One of the columns holds a decimal data type, with a format string of "C" for currency, and this works precisely as intended, eg the value 1234.56 is formatted as $1,234.56. In another portion of the application, I need to get the *formatted* rendering of that value from the grid. I've tried the simple grid[row,col] syntax, but it merely returns the underlying value, but I need the resultant value after the column style is applied. My ultimate intent is to measure the width of the formatted string to autosize the width of the column, and what I have now only formats the raw data, and that won't work. Is what I need even possible? I've gone through the DataGrid FAQ and MSDN and not found what I'm needing, so I'm turning here for help. Many thanks in advance, -intrepid Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100688

    - MC ++ reference types and their scope Hello, I'm back from some old fashioned project and something has changed in comparison to my first hours of programming in Visual C++. I'm up to build a tool and started by means of the Express Edition 2005 of VC++ aka VCM++. I decided to use the advantages of Managed Code but I'm wondering about the designer generated code. It's a Windows Form App. I use Managed Strings and other built in types. My question is if I instantiate an object of type Int32 or Double or String have I order to delete such objects explicitly or is GC doing it. As I can see the code designer doesn't add code to order to destroy such objects explicitly but for one it is doing it. System::ComponentModel::Container ^components; and in the destructor if (components) { delete components; } As I read all members will be implicitly destroyed when they come out of scope. Does this also include the reference members? I read some articles from the msdn mag and know how the finalize mechanism works but I'm just unsure since as I started to program I used the old new, delete mechanism which is obsolete now. Please let me know what can I do to avoid misdesigns. May be it's to basic for the good old programer on this thread but please help. Thanks in advance.

    - Specifying Parent to a Windows Form Where Parent Form is in VB 6 I have built a class library in Visual Basic .NET 2005 that exposes a class as a COM class using the ComClass attribute. This COM class allows (among other things) loading a Windows Form. I am using this .NET class library from Visual Basic 6 as if it were a COM DLL using the new features of Visual Studio 2005. The Visual Basic 6 application contains an MDI form. I can load the Windows Form contained in the .NET class library from Visual Basic 6 by means of the COM class exposed. This works fine as long as the Windows Form is loaded as a non-child form. The problem is that I want the Windows Form to be loaded as a child form of the Visual Basic 6 MDI form. How can I specify to the .NET Windows Form that the parent form is a form in Visual Basic 6? Thanks in advance! Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100675

    - VS2005 Opening a Form in Designer Sets the Modified (Dirty) Indica I have project that has forms derived from another form in a class library. I just converted this project to VS2005 from VS2003. Whenever I open one of the forms the tab showing the name of the form with an asterisk (*) so that it appears like it is modified without me making any changes. When I click the close button it then asks me if I want to save the changes? If I say yes and compare the before and after there is no difference. Has anyone seen this? I'm assuming it's probably being caused by something in my base class (form) but I have no clue what it could be. Any help is appreciated.

    - Handling Different DPI Settings when Manually Setting Coordinates If I'm manually setting the size and position of controls, how do I determine what the coordinate should be if the user changes the windows DPI setting? I have a problem when I run an app, which was compiled in 96 dpi, in 120 DPI. I have the property, AutoScale, set to DPI. If I manually set the size and position of any one control and get it to show up where I want in 96 DPI, the control shows up in the wrong place under 120 DPI. Since the DPI is higher, the X and Y coordinates should be higher as well. I know how to detect the DPI setting. So how do I know what values to use based on the DPI setting? Can I just multiple all manual coordinate settings by 1.25 if the DPI is 120? I'd like to take advantage of the Autoscale property, but I'd like to just change the position of one or two controls depending on user bevahior. Is this something built in or do I have to come up with complex spacing algorithm? Ed Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100657

    - Application.Restart on ClickOnce Deployed Application We've got an application that we deploy with click once. Using the MyApplication_UnhandledException we restart the application with Windows.Forms.Application.Restart() if the user encounters an error we didn't catch. Our application allows paramaters to be passed to the ClickOnce Application We are retrieving these like this.. If My.Application.IsNetworkDeployed Then Dim zUri As New Uri(My.Application.Deployment.ActivationUri.AbsoluteUri) zstrQuery = zUri.Query zarr_strArgs = zstrQuery.Split("&".ToCharArray) Else.... This works fine when the appliciation is started the first time. After a restart though, it appears that there is no ActivationUri.AbsoluteUri and I recieve an "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. What's going on? The documentation states, "Applications are restarted in the context in which they were initially run. If your application was started using a URL pointing directly to the application's main executable file, it will be restarted using the same URL. If your application is a ClickOnce application, it will be restarted using ClickOnce. If your application was originally supplied command-line options when it first executed, Restart will launch the application again with the same options." The way I read this, it should activate the same way it did the first time, so why is there no Uri? -- Neil Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100643

    - MdiParent bug...or am I dumb Setting the MdiParent of a Form works as expected. However, if an application has more than one top level mdi container form then unexpected erroneous behavior is observed when setting the MdiParent of a child form first to one MdiContainer, and then setting the MdiParent of the same child form to another container. After setting the MdiParent for a second time, the child will not activate and when maximized will not merge with main menu, if available, or the title bar if there is no main menu. Reproduce with the following code: using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace MDIParentBug { class MainForm : Form { Form secondMdiForm = new Form(); Form mdiChildForm = new Form(); public MainForm() { this.Text = "Main Mdi Form"; secondMdiForm.Text = "Second Mdi Form"; //Set as mdi containers... secondMdiForm.IsMdiContainer = true; this.IsMdiContainer = true; //set the mdi parent of the child mdiChildForm.MdiParent = this; //Show second mdi container... secondMdiForm.Show(); //Hook up activated events.. this.Activated += MDIParent_Activated; secondMdiForm.Activated += MDIParent_Activated; //show mdi child... mdiChildForm.Show(); } void MDIParent_Activated(object sender, EventArgs e) { //set new parent of mdi child... mdiChildForm.MdiParent = sender as Form; } [STAThread] static void Main() { Application.EnableVisualStyles(); Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false); Application.Run(new MainForm()); } } } I'd like a simple fix but unfortunately I think it's truly a bug.

    - External component has thrown an exception I seem to get this exception when I open forms using ShowDialog() from event handlers. Consider the following: private void cboCombo_SelectedIndexChanged(...) { try { (do something that raises an exception here) } catch(Exception ex) { try { (open a form with ShowDialog() here) } catch {} } } Somehow the SEHException is being thrown to Main() where it crashes the app. The stack trace is as follows: at System.Windows.Forms.UnsafeNativeMethods.DispatchMessageW(MSG& msg) at System.Windows.Forms.ComponentManager.System.Windows.Forms.UnsafeNativeMethods+IMsoComponentManager.FPushMessageLoop(Int32 dwComponentID, Int32 reason, Int32 pvLoopData) 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 WinApp.MainForm.Main(String[] args) in mainform.cs:line 2078 I've gotten around this issue in the past by starting a timer in the event handler, and then launching the form from the timer elapsed event. That works ok, but gets cumbersome quickly. I can provide code samples if necessary, but the code in question really isn't doing anything spectacular. I don't see how the code sample above could allow an exception to be thrown (without an explicit throw, that is). Does anyone have any experience with this issue?

    - Does ClickOnce work well? Any disadvantages to it? We have an ASP.NET web application that gets installed on a server in a hospital and then any computer throughout the hospital's network can access the application. I prefer Winforms applications to ASP.NET, so I am thinking that we should replace our current one with a Winforms application distributed through clickonce. What are the disadvantages of doing this? I am having difficulty convincing my coworkers that clickonce will distribute just as easily as a web application. It seems to me that the only major disadvantage is that the client PC has to have the .NET framework on it, which won't be the case in general. Does clickonce work really as easily as advertised? I scanned newsgroups to see a bunch of people having deployment problems of one type or another with it. thanks in advance Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100628

    - newbie... tablestyle question... I am using vb .net 2002. I have a datagrid where I am displaying columns from a table. The columns that are empty are being displayed as "{null}" and I want them to be just blank. I heard the onl;y way to do this was by using a table style to map each column and use the .nulltext="" property so that nulls are displayed as blank... My question is this... There are many columns in this particular table that have null values. Is there a way to set up a table style using a loop to go through eac field in the table (we are using SQL server) and set the field arccordingly?? I am currently doing it the long way and I am pretty sure there is a smarter way to do it... Below is some sample code for the load event of the form... In this code I have only dim'd two columns but I have a bunch. There must be an easier way than what I am doing here. I am think a for next loop must work but what would the syntax be? Private Sub frmAssetMaster_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim ds As New DataSet() Dim dgTableStyle As DataGridTableStyle ' fill the dataset SqlDataAdapter1.Fill(ds) Me.DataGrid1.DataSource = ds Me.DataGrid1.DataMember = "ComputerMaster" 'Create a data grid table style. dgTableStyle = New DataGridTableStyle() 'Map the table style to a table dgTableStyle.MappingName = "ComputerMaster" ' Dim all of the columns you want Dim dgTextBoxCol As New DataGridTextBoxColumn() Dim dgTextBoxCol2 As New DataGridTextBoxColumn() ' Set Col 1 properties dgTextBoxCol.MappingName = "ComputerName" dgTextBoxCol.NullText = "" dgTextBoxCol.HeaderText = "Asset Name" 'Set Col 2 properties dgTextBoxCol2.MappingName = "RAM" dgTextBoxCol2.NullText = "" dgTextBoxCol2.HeaderText = "RAM" ' Add the column styles dgTableStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgTextBoxCol) dgTableStyle.GridColumnStyles.Add(dgTextBoxCol2) ' Add the table style Me.DataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(dgTableStyle) End Sub Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!!

I can get the document loaded OK, but the event mentioned in the KB article does not seem to exist and I can find no way of getting at and binding the instance of the document to a Word._Document object. I can't find anything particularly useful through google and to make matters worse, I'm using an x64 OS which may well be having issues with 64/32 bit widths (though I don't think I've got there yet).

    - CA1812 = Code Analysis Ok, So call me dumb. But I get a CA1812 erorr when I have a Class with Shared methods. How do I get around this with out instantiating the class. I want it to be like a module. Thus a static class. Which I thought I was doing be making the methods public shared. By the way the code works fine. But CA dosn't like it. Any suggestions?

    - DatagridView displaying byte[] as an image when string is needed I am trying to display a sha1 hash in a DataGridView. I am using the DataBinder to bind to a SQL database. The default behavior of the DataGridView is to display byte[] as an image, using the DataGridViewImageCell/Column. I would like to see the sha1 hash displayed as a string instead -- similar to the behavior I would get from Query Analyzer. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    - How to change column width in a property grid from code? I have a wide property grid, to display wide values. The problem is that by default the property grid splits 50:50 between the name and value columns. The user can change that by dragging the divider to the left - but that gets a bit tedious EVERY time they run the program. Is there an easier way for my code to change the width? Neither PropertyGrid, nor GridItem seems to have any useful properties. Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100601

    - Using AxWebBrowser to get client / server conversations. Hiya, Got a small issue. I've created an app that can monitor what information is sent from and to a webserver while navigating through a particular scenario on a website (i.e. booking a holiday). Trouble is some actions are captured, and I can get the post data / query strings etc, however others aren't - mainly XML Posts for online games etc. I'm currently using the BeforeNavigate method and decoding the post data to get the information, but I think this isn't the best thing to use. So is there another way to get this information (and more!), maybe from the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse classes (of which I am unfamiliar with). Any help is much appreciated, Thanks.

    - my own fonts in app hi, can someone provide me with some clues about fonts? i need to ship my own fonts with the app i'm working on. what is the best approach for this scenario? should i install these fonts on a target machine during setup of my application? if so, what if the fonts are removed? do i need to verify their existence on every startup? the most resonable solution that i can think of is to embed these fonts as a resource, but then can i use them in my app directly from resource file?

    - Process.Start executing old version of my EXE Hi everyone, >From my WinForms app I am executing an external process. It turns out that I have replaced the EXE of the external process with a newer version and my WinForms app is still executing the old one. I am using Visual Studio 2005 and programming in C#. I have been wrecking my brains for two days and I can't find a possible explanation. These are the things I have tried so far: -Renaming the new EXE and, of course, referencing the new name in my code. -Deleted all the MUICache entries in the registry. -Removed the EXE completely from my Visual Studio solution and added it again. -Deleted all the suspicious caching files of Visual Studio. -If I xcopy my app to another computer it works. -If I xcopy my app to another folder in the same dev computer it works only once; in subsequent runs the old version of the EXE is called (even with a different EXE name). This is absolutely frustrating. I would appreciate any input. Thanks much! Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100587

    - Simple cross thread problem (I think) I ran into a threading issue with vb.net 2005. So I did some research and found out I could do one of two things. I could use the following(Which I'm not a big fan of) Dim ctl As Control For Each ctl In Me.Controls If TypeOf (ctl) Is TextBox Or TypeOf (ctl) Is Label Then Control.CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = False End If Next or I have to use a delegate and call it like so I like the secondary idea but I can't get my head around it. It's probably simple and I've over complicated it but all I need to do is react to a raise event call from a class on a form. I have looked at all kinds of examples but I'm don't see how it applies to my situation. Does anyone have an example of what I need to do? I just want to update labels and textboxes on my form when the event is raised. Here's the sub as it is now Private sub mMachCtl_NotDecoded ()Handles mMachCtl.NoDecoded txtColor.Text = "Error" txtLotNum.Text = "Error" Dim ctl as control for each ctl in me.controls if typeof ctl is label or typeof ctl is textbox then ctl.backcolor = color.red end if loop End Sub so how do I setup the delegate, and something to make that happen? -- You only know how far you can go if you go too far Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!!

    - Two ClickOnce Questions I have a couple of questions regarding ClickOnce: 1. We have a TabletPC application that is currently using MSDE. We are interested in upgrading it to 2.0 and Sql Express. The question is that, once this is done and installed on the tablets, what is the scenario if the application requires modifications to the SQL Express database in a future release. Does ClickOnce, for example, allow for the running of database scripts? 2. What if some of the users are in the field and not able to log into our internal network (we do not allow VPN access)? Can this upgrade be accomplished from the Internet in a secure manner? Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100583

    - Crystal Reports SetDataSource Method In upgrading a Windows Forms project from 2003 to 2005 in VB.Net, I have errors in setting the datasource for all of my embedded Crystal Report objects. What was working in 1.1 was If Me.myDataAdapter.Fill(Me.myDataSet.myDataTable) > 0 Then Dim oRpt As ReportClass = New myReport oRpt.SetDataSource(Me.myDataSet.myDataTable) Me.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = oRpt Return Else : GoTo NODATA End If On conversion, every one of these method calls gives the error: error BC30521: Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'SetDataSource' is most specific for these arguments: 'Public Overridable Sub SetDataSource(dataTable As System.Data.DataTable)': Not most specific. Any help on how to fix this would be appreciated. Thanks. -- John Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100582

    - Get new values in Tree View I have a mdi form and I have added 2 child forms to the mdi. 1 form contains a text box and a button and the other contains a tree view control. When I put text into the text box and press the button the value gets entered into the database but does not reflect on the tree view ?? Tree View takes all the values from the database while loading and does not change after that. Waiting for reply... :-( Vicky... :-) Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100581

    - Strange Behavior on Embedding a CMainFrame inside a managed tab control... I know this one is WAY out pushing the envelope, but I'd like to know if anyone has any ideas about it. We have a behemoth of a legacy MFC application which is now being embedded in a Windows Forms application (using VS 2005). It took some substantial out of the box thinking to make this work, but by and large it is working. There is one behavior, however, which we haven't quite solved yet. For some strange reason, we are having some significant focus management problems. When we bring up the application, no part of the application seems to have the focus. If we use the mouse to activate the application, everything seems to operate correctly, but if we bring up a modal dialog box, the dialog box receives and manages the focus correctly, but once it is dismissed, the focus does not return to the application window. It seems to return to the tab control, since the arrow keys navigate the tabs, but the controls in the legacy application cannot be reached using the keyboard. Interestingly, modules written in C# using windows forms controls do not display this behavior. I haven't been able to find anything in the window management or window styles to explain this. Can anyone out there shed any light on this?

    - PopUp Progress Bar I've built a separate windows 2.0 form that i'm calling that has a progress bar that runs text file parsing code. However when that form is called, it doesn't display until the progress bar has reached it's maximum value or the code has finished running. Is there any way to force the form to display FIRST, then have the text file parsing code run while the progress bar displays the progress? Thanks and any help will be appreciated. -- keal75 Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!! Tag: 100577

    - Datagrid Question I'm creating a winform application that implements a datagrid to display a daily inventory for chemicals. If there is already data for a particular day, that day's info will display in the grid. Otherwise, I want to just display the list of all chemicals that are not marked as discontinued in the Access database so that the user can enter that day's inventory count. There are 2 database tables for this portion of the app. The chemicals table contains... you guessed it - chemical information, and the dailyInventory table contains the fk to chemicals and daily inventory counts for each chemical. My first approach to create the datagrid as described was to use a select statement that populated a dataset and bind the dataset to the datagrid. I tried several different join statements to accomplish this, but nothing seemed to work the way I wanted it to. If there wasn't any data for a particular day, the closest I could get was to display all the chemicals but some of them had information from previous dates and others contained <null>. So then I thought perhaps I should use a dataset from another screen to populate the datagrid with the list of chemicals. However, I don't want to bind that dataset to the grid since the data needs to go to dailyInventory and not just chemicals. Have I just missed the boat on the select and rowfilter statements or should I use the second dataset instead? If I should use the second dataset, how do I add items to the datagrid without binding it? -- Message posted via DotNetMonster.com http://www.dotnetmonster.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/winform/200605/1 Tag: Datagridview customize data display URGENT!!!!

Is there a way to show data bound to the datagridview vertically instead of
the default horizontally?
Any samples or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance...

Can you elaborate a bit more specifically about what your requirement
is?

Additionally, is it desired that sorting will occur horizontally now?
