    - DataGrid Summary Row I wish to create summary rows for my Windows Form DataGrid. I found an article on MSDN that explains how to do this for ASP .NET DataGrids, but I can't seem to find anything about Windows Forms DataGrid. Heres the article and its the last screen shot that I'm interested in reproducing. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp? url=/library/en-us/dndive/html/data01102002.asp Regards Mark Tag: Drag\Drop to Explorer Tag: 62999

    - TabPage issue I have a custom TabPage class the I add to a standard TabControl. I have a NumericUpDown control on the TabPage whose Validating event is tied to a method in the TabPage class. If the user types in a value, does not use the up/down arrows to change the value, I validate the Text property in the Validating event. If it is not valid I display a MessageBox then set the cancel property of the CancelEventArgs to true, then call the NumericUpDown control Focus method, then select the text of the NumericUpDown control. This all works great if the user uses the Tab key to move to the next control, or clicks another control on the current TabPage. The problem arises when the user after typing in what is an invalid value into the NumericUpDown control then clicks another Tab in the TabControl. Here is what happens. 1. Enter invalid data on the current TabPage 2. Click another TabPage on the TabControl 3. The MessageBox is displayed twice with the originating TabPage visible. 4. The TabControl switches to the TabPage that was clicked 5. The MessageBox is displayed again. (Third time) 6. Anything after this causes the MessageBox to display and I can not leave the TabPage that was clicked. Can any one provide any ideas as to what is happening? Thank You Ken Tag: Drag\Drop to Explorer Tag: 62998

    - Forms that won't Dispose Hi MS & All others, I've been investigating a memory leak in my application which is proving particularly hard to fix, and I came across something very unusual. I've determined that the leak is caused by a particular form that won't "dispose". I'm using a program called ".NET Memory Profiler" to check to see whether there's still an instance of my form even after it has been closed & disposed. After doing some testing, I've now come across a very unusual situation: In a simple little app, I can load Form2 from within Form1, display it using ShowDialog, close it (and then call Dispose on it from within Form1) and the memory profiler reports that there are 0 instances of Form2 currently running, just as it should be. However, if I have a context menu on Form2 and I display it (handling Form2's click event and showing the menu from code), and then close & dispose it, it remains in the list of instantiated classes. I have tried this several times, and was able to end up with a list of over a dozen instances of Form2 despite the fact they had been closed and disposed of. This ONLY ever happened if I'd clicked to show the Context-Menu, if I didn't do that then Form2 would happily Dispose. Is there some quirk where extra code is needed to dispose of a Form after a Context Menu has been shown? I tested this with a MainMenu instead and it Disposed just fine. Could this be a memory leak in the Framework? I'll be happy to post a sample project demonstrating it, but in order to see the problem you will require some sort of profiling tool capable of examining the Heap. I'm using VS.NET 2003, Framework 1.1, WinXP Pro. Many thanks, Alex Clark Tag: Drag\Drop to Explorer Tag: 62993

    - Cannot Open Inherited Forms KB 814732? I create a base form then I created an inherited form. This works fine. I do some work in both of the forms. This works fine. Suddenly, there comes a time when I cannot display a design view of the inherited form. This is independent of the code that I write. I believe this is the same issue that is described in KB 814732 except that the error that I get is "Object Reference is not set to an instance of the object". What does the KB article mean when it says "Copy the assembly in the directory where WinRes.exe is located." What assembly? Where is WinRes.exe located? I'm buried in jargon.

    - [ANN] XML-based Windows Forms Development... Xamlon v0.6 (beta 2) has been released and can be downloaded from: http://www.xamlon.com/ Xamlon allows for XML-based Windows.Forms development and follows the syntax of "Longhorn's" new "Avalon" Markup Language, XAML. Xamlon also provides "compatibility wrapper" objects around Windows.Forms controls that mirror the naming convention used in Avalon's XAML. There are several key benefits of using Xamlon today: a.. Application development becomes much more simple and efficient. Xalmon provides a very clean separation between presentation and application logic. b.. Xamlon application run on all of today's .NET Framework 1.1 Windows operating systems: Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP, and Server 2003. c.. Xamlon provides a much simpler migration path to Microsoft's next-generation presentation layer in "Longhorn", XAML. We hope you enjoy trying this beta.

    - KeyDown Event I'm am currently working with a datagrid. I have noticed that if a cell has focus and you hit the left or right arrow key the grids KeyDown event doesn't fire. I also noticed that neither does the KeyDown event on the textbox. Where is this mystery being that captures the left and right arrow key. How can I find out if it was the last key stroke pressed. I need to know if someone just moved left or right so I can keep them from going to the next or previous line just by hitting left or right. Unfortunatly watching for the change in the currenctcell doesn't supply enough information. Any help that can be given is much appreciated.

    - AxHost'ed WebBrowser Control Win Forms hosting problems! (or bugs?) Hi All! When developing financial app I have just encountered problem in using AxHost WebControl created from SHDocVw.dll. In my app it is included in MDIChild Windows Form control - BrowserForm. After or without any customization and inclusion into Windows.Form app as a MDIChild I have problems with changing focus to BrowserForm windows with mouse clicks and surprisingly everything works fine with Infragistic UltraTabbedMDIManager when in tabbed view. Next problem arisies when switching between tabbed and MDI layout at run-time programatically. Focus change between child Browser windows in MDI view is not handled properly, moreover, problem propagates to other MDIChild Forms which work perfectly when no BrowserForm is present. Most serious problem I have seen so far arises when switching back to tabbed view from MDI at run-time. Browser seems to lose control of client window size and draws itself either at previous size (when tab is deselected and selected again - than it is again OK) or at some undetermined situations (i can not find any particular conditions at which to repeat that behaviour) it draws itself outside application area (even MDIParent) it seems that instead of window rather at desktop coordinates. I do assume that browser loses somehow handle to window in which it should draw and catches handle to desktop (?) but I have no idea how to overcome that problem! Obviosly the problem with focus change is mysterious for me as well! Waiting for any syggestions. Jacek PS VS.NET does not allow for change between tabbed and mdi view at run-time - you have to start next session - is it runtime switch problem? But in this same VS.NET multiple browser forms coexist without any focus problems! I have posted this news to interop newsgroup as well Tag: Drag\Drop to Explorer Tag: 62956

    - SEHException on ShowDialog Hi everyone, I'm getting some strange errors regarding the ShowDialog() method. I have an MDI application. If I attempt to show a dialog box (ShowDialog) from a child window, either an SEHException or NullRefernceException may be thrown. This only seems to happen when I have other, specific child windows open in the background. I am using databinding, and as far as I can tell, these exceptions are thrown for windows with listboxes or datagrids that are bound to tables in a dataset. If I open one child window only, no exceptions are thrown, but if I open a different child window (one with, say a databound datagrid and listbox), then flip back to the original window, and attempt to open a dialog, then the exceptions are thrown. I've read elsewhere that this can be caused by calling the Application.EnableVisualStyles - but I'm not doing this. Any help would be greatly apprecited.

    - Communicating With A Service Via A GUI - Need some ideas.... We are trying to write a simple GUI front end to communicate with a service. We need the GUI to make the service fire certain events if the user needs to re-perform certain tasks manually, and possibly return a result string with back to the user from what the service did, records processed, errors, etc. We are thinking there should be a system tray icon as well that the user uses to open the GUI as needed. We tried to keep it simple, and just make a service out of our existing GUI form, and set it to interact with the desktop. Apparently, right click menus do not work with system tray service apps, and the icon itself doesn't go away as expected when the app shuts down. All in all, not a very elegant, stable or confidence inspiring solution. We then tried to make a separate GUI app, and keep all UI out of the service. The process controller I think we can only SEND integer commands, so it is not really powerful enough. Should we be looking at remoting? Is there an easier way? We have been through a half dozen examples on MSDN, various articles, etc. and by the time we try to put a remoting sample together with a service example with a system tray icon example, then get all the .dll's created, build an install program, then try to get it installed on a test machine it all falls apart. Any ideas on this? We have been doing stuff like this for years with pre-dot net versions of VC, but just can't get our heads around doing it now with .NET. Thanks....

    - Creating Crystal Reports Dynamically Hello All, I am using Crystal reports in my windows application. Currently the method that I am using to create the report is as follows: 1) Create a SQL Stored Procedure that would return the data for the report. 2) Create a Dataset from the SPcreated in Step 1 3) Create fields on the report mapping them to the fields of the dataset. 4) At run time, fill the dataset so that the report displays the data to the user In the above approach, all my report fields are decided at design time. If I make any changes to my stored procedure or I want to add new fields on the report, I have to follow the above steps all over again. On changing the data source, the fields on the report are lost. I want to create the report fields at run time or in some better way than the above mentioned method. I need some examples and explanation on how to go about doing all this. If any one has other ideas in creating reports efficiently, it would be highly appreciated.

    - control in web page fails if only in GAC I'm trying to put a DateTimePicker on a web page, using <OBJECT classid="System.Windows.Forms.dll# System.Windows.Forms.DateTimePicker" etc.> (without the line break after #) but it just puts up an empty box with a scrollbar, indicating some kind of failure. With some experimenting I've found that, despite what everyone says, this sort of thing never succeeds in using an assembly from the client's GAC, but works fine if the assembly is in the same directory with the web page. So, I tried copying System.Windows.Forms.dll from the GAC into the web directory (ugh!), but then I just got an image icon and it still didn't work.

    - Form layout corrupted with DPI set to 120 I have a Tab control on my form. Inside the tab control, I have child controls that expand (anchors) to fill the tab as the screen is resized. When working in 96 DPI all is fine. When running on 120 DPI, the first tab that is displayed during startup has wildly set sizes for the child controls (usually way too big). The other tabs' controls are all OK as your tab to them. Going back to the first tab doesn't fix it though. The first tab that is displayed changes depending on configuration settings. Whatever tab happens to be first drawn, is the one with the problem. If that same tab is not the first one drawn, all is fine. The problem is apparent for Win2K and XP. However, Win2003 draws fine. So the assumption is that MS fixed something in that release. Unfortunately - I don't know what the work around would be. Help?! Tyke Tag: Drag\Drop to Explorer Tag: 62894

    - Validating Radio Buttons I have two radio buttons contained by a groupbox in a winform. I need to make sure that the user selects one of the radio buttons before hitting submit. Since the radio buttons are two separate controls and the groupbox cannot recieve focus, how do I fire the validaing event so that the errorprovider will warn the user to select one?

    - Urgent!!! Events not firing for controls Please help. I have a form with many controls on it. (Text Boxes, Combo Boxes, labels etc) Some of these controls are bound, some are not. For controls that are bound, not all events are firing when the control loses focus. Specifically, the "Leave" event fires and thats it. No validating, validated events fire, no events on the bound data source. This has happened in the past. I tried some tests on another new form and all was well so I couldn't pin down what the problem was. This is problem is very urgent! Anybody's help would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to drag\drop items from a ListView to Windows
Explorer\Desktop and return the drop location's full path
(for use as the destination for a file transfer). I'm
having no problems with the process when dropping to the
ListView, only with external windows. Can anyone point me
in the right direction? Thanks...Dan
