    - Windows App With No Visible Window I want to create two executable applications, AppA and AppB. AppA uses an instance of the Process class to launch AppB, via the Process.Start() method. AppB has a WndProc but does not display a window. Later, AppA sends a message to AppB telling it to shut down. AppB includes an event handler that handles this and closes down gracefully. I have no trouble doing this if AppB can show a visible window since I can use Process. CloseMainWindow() in AppA to send the message, and the Form.Closing event in AppB to receive the message. But has soon as I hide the window, this doesnâ??t work. In Win32 this would be easy, but how do you do it in Dot Net? Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92443

    - Advice on approach of modular app... I'm somewhat of a noob when it comes to WinForm development (all of my work is within ASP.NET, serivces, and libraries). Currently in the design/scope stage of a pet project, I'm looking for a bit of advice or direction as to the best approach. The app is essentially a research & analysis tool where there will be lots of raw data views with some visualization using charts & graphs... it's also quite modular. Each "module" will have a specific role... for instance one would be used to manage the data (import/granular scrubbing), one for one type of research on the data, another for another type of research, etc. For example, in Outlook, each module would be Mail/Contacts/Tasks/Calendar. I assume the best way is not to create giant panels and show/hide them when a specific button/menu/tab is clicked as it won't be very performant but rather create controls and load/dispose when needed. I plan to use the latest VS2005 RC release as my foundation (using some 3rd party stuff like Infragistics NetAdvantage... not sure if that matters for this discussion) and have been reading through Chris Sells' book (granted, it's for the v1.x Framework, but I'm assuming WinForms v1.x->2.0 is similar to ASP.NET v1.x->2.0: it's not a complete change to what we're doing, just makes many tasks easier like the BackgroundWorker for example). Any pointers on the approach or best practices? I don't think I'm looking for a SDI/MDI debate... just not sure as to where to go from here.

    - RichTextBox, Icons and Inserts Hello all, I'm designing an application where I need to make heavy use of the RichTextBox control. The user need the drag/drop features of other windows applications which I have implemented. I am having some difficulty implementing an Insert feature which will allow the users to browse to the location of the file and insert the file. I know the drag/drop works and Copy/Paste also work fine, but I'd like to add the Insert feature. Also, when files are dropped on to the control, the name of the file does not seem to display. The file type is displayed instead. And several file types don't show their icon at all. Has any found a work around or have some guidance as to a solution. Richard Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92435

    - Drag and Drop an attachment from an Outlook message I have an email that has a file attached to it. If I save the file and drag the file from Windows Explorer to my form, I get a DragDrop event with data type of FileDrop. If I drag the file directly from the opened email, I get a DragDrop event with the data type of TEXT. What is worse, it appears to be a empty text string. The file in question is a .xml and fairly small, so I would even be happy if I could just get the contents of the file as text. Should I be able to receive that file directly from Outlook email and if so, how.

    - Patterns and best practise for model/view/controller separation? Hi all, I have quite some design experience on other platforms and especially with web applications. Now I'm about to design a .NET application and am a little stuck as I am trying to apply my "habits" of separating model, view and controller. Either that is the totally wrong approach or I am not familiar enough with the platform to make it :). By now, I've already written some model classes and test cases. In that simple case, the "controller" is nothing more than the logic that creates the right instances of models, connects them and calls some business methods on them, validating the results. Now as it comes to adding a GUI and responding to user input, I was hoping that there is something like the "blueprints" with J2EE, that is, some patterns as design recommendations on how to sort things out; or maybe you can share your thoughts and experience with me? I'll try to describe the problems I've run into so far; that should make it easier to reply as the question will be less abstract :) For every model, I will have one or more views to display the models. These views are subclasses of System.Windows.Forms.Form. Basically - how to separate controller and view? It seems to me that it's always the Form class that reacts on user input; but maybe that is just because the IDE/designer suggests that? I assume it is possible to move that code to some "controller" class (probably somehow using the properties of the form controls?) - but is that a good idea? Shouldn't I just keep it as suggested? Next, is it right to create a new instance of a certain view class (the form) for every model I want to display? Or should I avoid creating too many instances of the form class - that would mean I should instantiate every form only once and use something like the flyweight pattern to provide the view with the model it is supposed to display? If several form instances are ok and I keep the controller logic in the form class as well, one approach would be to simply pass the form its model in the constructor like: static void Main() { Model m = new Model(); View v = new View(m); // View subclasses System.Windows.Forms.Form Application.Run(v); } The view would then - maybe in an btnOK_Click handler - update the model, maybe like void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { myModel.doSomeBusiness(textBox1.Text); } Is that a good approach? Clearly, what button1_Click does is the job of a controller. One more problem with the "pass model to form/view constructor" approach is when instantiating new models: Sometimes I need to display a form to collect some user input; that user input is necessary for creating the new model instance. Later on, the same view class is supposed to provide the means of manipulating the model again. I feel it's not a good idea let the form be constructed without a model and add another method like "createAModelFromInput()" that would build the "new" model for me. Thus, another way would be to have something like (informal notation) class Controller { newModelUseCase { v = new View() v.display() // extract "pure data" from view here m = new model(data extracted) } updateModelUseCase { m = someModelIAlreadyGot; v = new View() // extract all data from model here // populate v with the data v.display() } } Now that is clearly too much for a controller - the whole "extract data from model and populate view" thing is the view's responsibility. As a side note, with my specific application requirements I would benefit if the whole create new model / update model could be generic. I know that there will be future extensions to my application that will bring new models with appropriate views, so it would be elegant to keep that part of code arbitrary enough to work with such extensions. As to updating the view upon model state changes, that's probably no problem with a standard observer pattern approach where the view might (pherhaps in its constructor) subscribe for model notifications. The only thing I'm a little afraid here is that in the future, threading problems might arise (what if the model changes in a non-GUI thread and does the notification from there?). I'm happy you read until here :) Again, point me to some recommended approaches/patterns/best practices if there are some :) - I found nothing that satisfies me :). Please reply to the group - I will follow things here. Thanks in advance, Matthias Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92417

    - DataBinding to Custom Class breaks after New instance: how to get around this? Hi, I'm having the following situation: - A class clsFournisseur with public property's which raise a MyPropertyChanged-event in the Set-method for each Property. Public Event NomChanged As EventHandler Public Property Nom() As String Get Return m_strNom End Get Set(ByVal Value As String) m_strNom = Value RaiseEvent NomChanged(Me, New EventArgs()) End Set End Property - A Form, with an instance of my clsFournisseur: "Private WithEvents MyEntreprise As New clsFournisseur". - Proprty's of this Myentreprise are bound to controls on the Form: "Me.txtNom.DataBindings.Add("Text", MyEntreprise, "Nom")" When I change the value in my txtNom.Text, the MyEntreprise.Nom-property is changed. When I change the MyEntreprise.Nom, my txtNom.Text is changed. So far so good. BUT: When in my Form I want to use another clsFournisseur, there isn't anymore databinding. I do this like this: - MyEntreprise = New clsFournisseur(intEntrepriseID) or - MyEntreprise = New clsFournisseur() I guess this is normal behaviour because, even when it still has the same name, it isn't the same class anymore. But I still want to have this databinding! And a weird thing: the txtNom.Databindings.Count = 1, so the TextBox thinks there is still the databinding... Does anybody know how I should do this? Am I doing anything wrong? Should I Clear all the DataBindings after echt new instance of a class and put them back? Any help would be really appreciated.

    - Scrolling in a list box Hi, I have two list boxes of the same size and the same number of items in them. The number of items is big, so to accommodate them the list boxes display vertical scroll bars. I want to synchronize the vertical scrolling of these two list boxes, so when one of them is scrolled by the user, the other is scrolled as well so they are both at the same scroll position. How can I do this? I looked for some sort of scroll event that would tell me the position of the scroll bar but I could not find anything. There was a similar example in "Programming VB6" by Francesco Balena, but a "Scroll" event is used there, which we dont have in .NET ( at least I cant find it) Thanks Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92392

    - Win Forms App Code Generation? I'm new to .NET and somewhat disappointed in the amount of manual work required to get a simple Win Forms database application built. I'm used to working with a development environment called "Clarion" (that I'm guessing you've never heard of), which can take you from data dictionary to fully functioning application (browse, search, reporting, insert, change, delete, etc), with only a few mouse clicks. Leaving me time to spend on the more serious aspects of the application. What's more, the system doesn't abandon you after the code is generated, but handles design changes. Anyway, coming from this environment to .NET leaves me wondering if you guys really do hand-code all your basic database table browse and update forms? Admittedly I've only been playing with Visual Studio 2003 (and C#) for a while, but it seems very time consuming. Surely there is a better way? Let say I gave you a database with 100 tables and said I wanted a Win Forms application with data entry forms and filterable browse lists on all of them, including the relevant parent-child relationships, referential integrity, concurrency chechking, validation "lookups" - the usual bells and whistles. Is the .NET way to sit down for months and hand-code all this? Or am I totally missing something? I've done a web search for code generators and found a couple, but with little experience with .NET it's hard to tell from the trial versions if they fit the bill. Neither seem to handle design changes, but are kind of like complex wizards. Can anyone offer some pointers, links to sites, tools they used and liked, books I should read, or a more appropriate approach to take? Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92391

    - Forms and Panels don't respond to help requests? Hello, Why don't forms and panels respond to help requests? I have a basic form showing the Help button in the title bar, a HelpProvider, a panel and a button; and the panel and button are identically configured to show help on the HelpProvider. When I use the Help button and click on the button the .chm is opened; when I click on the panel (or the background of the form), nothing happens at all. In addition, if I add an EventHandler to the HelpRequested handler of the panel, it never gets called either. So is there some magic trick here, is this a bug or some mysterious "feature?" I've tried this with labels and textboxes, comboboxes, pictureboxes, radio buttons, trackbars; all manner of UI controls. Why are panels and forms different? Anyone have some insight or suggestions?

    - UIPAB - OpenFileDialog Hi, After writing several MDI and Forms demo-apps with UIPAB, I'm starting to feel comfortable with the UIPAB. There is, however, (at least) one issue left : according to http://builder.com.com/5100-6374_14-5058410-2.html saving a file should be an independent task. Now, since an OpenFileDialog is not a UserControl nor a Form, how should it be managed by UIPAB ? On the other hand, popping up an OpenFileDialog is so simple, that writing a separate view, controller, task and appropriate configuration seems a bit, well, overwhelming ... ;-) Any suggestion ? All your comments are highly appreciated ! Thanks, Bart Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92383

    - ComboBox BindingContext I have 2 ComboBoxes on a form bound to the same DataSet using a New BindingContext for the second one. Both ComboBoxes need to have their SelectedValue bound to a different DataSet . The first one works properly, but the second one will not select any value.

    - 4 pane SplitContainer The SplitContainer divides the space in two, either horizontally or vertically. I'd like to divide the space in four. By adding more splitters, the problem is that they don't keep in synch automatically. It'd be nice if when the mouse hovers in the center of the four regions a cross movement icon is displayed, and movement in the two axis is allowed. With the solution of adding more splitters the user is forced to first move in one direction and then in the other one. What do you recommend to achieve this? Thanks. Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92336

    - Adding forms into a panel Hi everybody: I am adding several forms into a panel to give MDI appearance to my panel.. Though the forms inside my panel looks fine, I have three problems: 1. The focused form does have the title bar activated (it is gray, like the inactive forms) 2. The only way to bring to front a form is clicking the title bar (in a MDI container, the user can click at anyplace in the form and it gets activated). 3. Cascade, horizontal tile and vertical tile functionality is not provided. Well, the tile and cascade window organization can be implemented, but I do not know how to deal with the focus and mouse problem. Am I doing something wrong? There is another way to implement this functionality? Thank you in advance Ernesto Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92332

    - MDI Child Controls If I have a second form that is a mdichild, let's say frm2 and I want to update a textbox control pragmatically... In my MDI parent, I open 5 instances Dim f as new frm2 private sub OpenForm() for i = 0 to 4 f = new frm2 f.mdiparent = me f.show end sub Now, from my parent, I want to update a textbox1 in the active mdi child, how can I? When I just try f.textbox1.text = "some text" it updates the control on the last handle created. I tried finding the active child but couldn't determine how to go from there after I got it. Any help and links would be great. Regards, Brian Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92325

    - Forms are re-locating Hi, I have an application which shows forms on two different independant screens. The Windows desktop is spread across these screens. The forms are all set to manual positioning, and so to show a form on the second screen, I simply set the coordinates to be on the second screen and that is where it goes. It now seems to have developed a problem however: When I trace through what is happening all the coordinates get set correctly, and then I call Show() for the form. When show returns, the forms coordinates have been changed to show it on the first screen. I can't trace into the Show function, as it's part of the framework, but something weird is happening. Has anybody seen this before or got any idea what could be going on? Thankyou in advance. Paul Cheetham. Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92320

    - FindDialog for RichTextBox problem Hi! I created a FindDialog for RichTextBox. I have 2 problem with it: - when I ShowDialog() my FindDialog, it got the focus and the RichTextBox stop displaying its current selection (it apparently need the focus to draw it), so when the user click "Find Next" I select the next match, but the user has no visual feedback :-/ - I also try the RichTextBoxFins.Reverse option, doesn't seems to work at all! Any ideas? -- If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at the enemy, throw one of those small pumpkins.

    - Combo refresh/binding problem Hi- I have two combobox controls (among other controls) that are all bound to dataset0 from the "Main" table. Combobox2 is bound to a column that contains a FK (system_id) which corresponds to the PK from the "Systems" table. These combobox's also function as picklists and as such are filled from two corresponding datasets (dataset2 contains the system_id (PK) and SystemName column from the the "Systems" table. The contents of Combobox2 depends on the selected item in combobox1. usage model is as follows: The controls are all bound to dataset0 by a hand-coded procedure at form load. This works fine. Combobox1 is populated by dataset1.fill. The user can scroll through the dataset0 records from ""Main" table by navigation buttons. The displayed string values in the comboboxes change accordingly. When the user wants to make changes, he opens the current record for editing but using a button which unlocks the controls. He then makes a selection from dataset1 loaded in Combobox1. All good so far. The change event on Combobox1 fires, and the contents of Combobox2 should then be loaded by dataset2 which takes a parameter based on the selection made in combobox1. This is used a parameter to the dataset2 which should populate combobox2 with the appropriate choices for the selection made in ComboBox1. But what is reflected in combobox2 is a bunch of rows that all say "System.Data.DataRowView" I should mention that this was a port from a VB6 where this worked correctly. The combobox2.datafield property was set to an integer (system_id) representing a FK in a column in dataset0. When the user chose the value in Combobox1, the value was sent as a parameter which was used to a recordset which yielded values to populate ComboBox2. This recordset came from the Systems table. ComboBox2.boundcolumn was set to Systems.system_ID (the PK), and the Combobox2.listfield was set to Systems.systemname. Since the control was bound to FK system_id from dataset0, whatever value it was sitting on, would display the correct systemname. Obviously, I have no idea how to make this scenario work in .NET. Any help would be appreciated. -- thx, jf kaminsky Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92315

    - What makes this code slow This code resets a form with two cbo's (comboBoxes) and one datagrid. The first cbo (cboSelection) selects a main table and filters the second cbo. The second cbo (cboView) selects the secondary table which determine the dataAdapter used to fill the dataGrid. Both cbo's are populated by filling dataAdapters. This code just empty's the datagrid, cbo's and dataset so the user can start over to view another set of data. \\ Private Sub btnResetForm_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnResetForm.Click 'Clear the datagrid Me.DataGrid1.DataSource = Nothing Me.DataGrid1.TableStyles.Clear() 'clear the dataset _dataSet1.Clear() DAL.da010JobFrm.Fill(_dataSet1, "tbl010Job") 'cboSelection Me.cboSelection.DataSource = _dataSet1 Me.cboSelection.DisplayMember = "tbl010Job.JobNumber" Me.cboSelection.ValueMember = "tbl010Job.pkJobId" _bStillLoadingCboSelection = False _bStillLoadingCboView = True End Sub // What makes this code slow? It is as slow as if it was about to throw an error. Or How can I test this code? Thank you, dbuchanan Tag: Form KeyUp event Tag: 92306

Hi. Try,
this.KeyPreview = true;
or
Me.KeyPreview = True
