    - Unable to Debug Forms and most subroutines After months (really) of fiddling, I found out how to get debugging to work - under Debug > Exceptions, make sure Unhandled Exceptions break the code into the debugger and allow Visual Basic in the Options dialog to edit files while debugging Anyway, on to my problem...I'm creating our own manufacturing software, IC, MRP, AP, AR, you get the idea. I'm on such a tight schedule I didn't have time to learn ADO.NET, so I created an active-x control in VB 6 that exposes the DAO functions and properties. It works like this Dim msDAO as eDAO10182004.eDA msDAO = Me.DAO_ICMAIN.GetOc msDAO.DatabasePath = Unified.Settings.DataPath & "\Inventory Control.mdb msDAO.RecordsetSQL = "SELECT * FROM [tblItemsMaster] WHERE [Item Number] = '" & Me.cboItemNumber.Text & "' msDAO.OpenConnectio You would then access the data through the msDAO.Recordset property. However, when it comes to debugging...hehehehe I cannot use breakpoints or debug any form that has an Active-X control on it, whether it is mine, or one of Microsoft's (The Windows Forms Controls are okay though). Instead, I sometimes get a error message, but most of the time the program just quits without warning. It makes it hell for me because I keep having to write message boxes to figure out where in my code I am. Try...Catch statements don't even work on any subroutine that references an Active-X control. I'm at my wit's end. It takes hours a day to track down one bug. Just one I'm using VB .NET 2003 Can someone, perhaps someone from Microsoft help me?

    - Scalability of Smart Cients Hi! We want to develop a Smart Client using .NET Remoting and No Touch Deployment (loading the Assemblys directly from the Webserver except that there is no younger version). However, wie are wondering, how scalable the Smart Client is, for example, if thousand people want to download the new release on monday morning. Does anyone know, if there are limits, where you should use a web client instead? Are there any possibilities to solve this problem?

    - Why is windows forms controls bolding so hard? Why are fonts so hard to use in .NET? All I want to do is bold the font in runtime - yet, xxx.xxx.Font.Bold is readonly. The only way I can see to bold a font for anything at run time is to change the font to a whole NEW font; i.e., for my listview subitem I have to say: lst.SubItems(6).Font = New System.Drawing.Font(lst.SubItems(6).Font, Drawing.FontStyle.Bold) Again, I don't want to change the font itself, just make it bold (or italic). Is this the only way to do it? Or am I missing an easier way? Thanks. Tom Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea? Tag: 67280

    - Form Inheritance vs. Anchor/Dock I'm still using VS.NET 2002. I just learned what disease I'm suffering from: Form Properties Aren't Virtual Syndrome. The example that's been killing me is having controls in a base form anchor and/or dock. Then, if the derived form is a different size, one finds that these inherited controls anchor and/or dock to the size of the base form, not the size of the derived form. One notices this problem when the designers update after doing a build... I read something in this newsgroup that suggests this problem is fixed in VS.NET 2003. Is that the case? Also, is there a workaround for this in VS.NET 2002, other than not using anchor or dock in base forms? I'm about to try using anchor and/or dock in the most-derived form, which it seems might work. Is there a better way in VS.NET 2002? Thanks for any help. I'm reaching the limits of what I can do with Windows Forms without actually reading a good book on it. It's really amazing that it's possible to go so far without actually knowing what I'm doing! -- John Saunders John.Saunders at SurfControl.com Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea?

    - Adding a Button Control to a ListView/DataGrid Column Hi All, Is it possible to add other controls to the ListView control in C# windows forms. i.e. I want to add a button column so to speak to the list view. You can do this sort of thing with the datagrid in asp.net, however I think the datagrid in c# is overly complex for what I'm wanting to do, and I'm not even sure it is possible to do it in that. Answers to both Controls would be appreciated. Thanks Alan Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea? Tag: 67270

    - PropertyGrid -- controlling the Category Text Color Is there a way to control the color of the text that appears in the Category headings area of the property grid. I assume that it is tied to a system color -- the text is hard to read with the "dark-gray" color that ends up being the default under standard XP settings. The "LineColor" property provides control of the background color of the category heading -- but I don't see an obvious way to control the text color. Thanks, Rob.

    - Q:) Need sample code for a best practices Windows Form app Is there anything like Petshop or Duwamish but more of a regular client/server windows forms based app that demonstrates good Window Forms coding practices? Or something that just demonstrates the right way to bind controls to data for a c/s app? My .Net experience is mostly web app based so I'm used to opening datasets and going back to refetch records on subsequent server roundtrips, etc. I'm not sure about the best way to work with data sets and bound controls on a client/server type of app where I can be fully coupled to the database. I used to work with Delphi which had components for persistent database connections and table objects that you opened once, wired your grids and edit boxes up to, and did all of your updates through. I know .net can do that but everything seems oriented towards disconnected apps. Then again, maybe thats the better way, either way - some pointers would be helpful...

    - Set Hidden (Key) Fields on RowChange I am using C# WinForms with a DataGrid bound to a strongly typed dataset I am not displaying key fields and logging fields (Create DT, Create By, etc.) in the datagrid When a New Row is modified, I want to set the key and hidden fields in code. Basically, when the user moves off of a row, I want to check if the RowState == Added, and all necessary values are entered, and if so, then set hidden fields I have tried the Row_Changing event and the Row_Changed event. The Row_Changed event is to late because I get an error stating the key field can not be null. The Row_Changing event stated that I could not change a proposed value in the rowChanging event What is the best way to set hidden columns on a row after the user has entered values in the visible columns Here is the code that does not work private static void Row_Changing( object sender, DataRowChangeEventArgs e dsLD.LineDtlRow r = (dsLD.LineDtlRow)e.Row MessageBox.Show("In Row_Changed: " + r.RowState.ToString()) if (r.RowState == DataRowState.Added && r.GroupCD != null r.ClaimID = 1 MessageBox.Show("Set Hidden Fields") Thanks Larry Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea?

    - use MFC Controls in WinForms? Hi there, is there a possibility to host MFC controls in a SWF Control? I have a big MFC application and want to migrate to .NET. It is not possible for me to rewrite all the MFC controls and views so I want to create a new .NET based frame and use the old MFC controlbars and editors. Is there a way (e.g. with subclassing / superclassing) to create a managed wrapper around my old MFC CWnd and CVeiw derived classes? I know that I could create ActiveX controls around them and use a RCW but that would cause a lot of additional overhead. There are some atricles saying that Whidbey bring support for hosting SWF Controls in MFC. Is that also true for the oposite (MFC Controls in SWF)?

I tried to inherit from CollectionEditor and then provide StringCollectionForm (see hereafter). So I can change the instruction and text (thanks to reflection). But if I change the collection (add a string, I get an 'object reference not set to...' outside of my code. Do you see a better way to do it? What's wrong? I know I can create my own MyStringCollectionForm, but I don't want to do that. Any idea? Sebastien public class TheObject{ [Editor(typeof(OutputArrayEditor), typeof(UITypeEditor))] public string[] TheProperty{ ... } } public class OutputArrayEditor : CollectionEditor //ideal would be StringArrayEditor { public OutputArrayEditor(Type type) : base (type){} protected override System.ComponentModel.Design.CollectionEditor.CollectionForm CreateCollectionForm() { Type editorType = Type.GetType("System.Windows.Forms.Design.StringArrayEditor, System.Design, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"); object editor = editorType.InvokeMember(null, BindingFlags.CreateInstance, null, null, new object[]{typeof(string[])}); Form form = (Form)editorType.InvokeMember("CreateCollectionForm", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.InvokeMethod | BindingFlags.Instance, null, editor, null); form.Text = "My Custom collection text"; //add code to chg instruction here (reflection) return (CollectionEditor.CollectionForm)form;//base.CreateCollectionForm (); } protected override object SetItems(object editValue, object[] value) { return base.SetItems (editValue, value); } protected override object[] GetItems(object editValue) { return base.GetItems (editValue); } } Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea?

    - Datagrid with Custom Columns - design time support? Hello, I have created a custom column for a datagrid and if I manually modify the code it all works fine. However, when I click on properties, etc., from the design time environment the custom column is never displayed. Nor can I add a column of the custom type... I have found several references/examples in C# which demonstrate what to do, but my conversions don't seem to work. Does someone have an example of creating a custom datagrid which will support custom columns in the design time environment in a windows.forms VB.NET 2003 application? Thanks!

    - textboxes in user control: change event fired twice if only 1 char Hello Strange behaviour: I have several textboxes in a user control that fire change events. This event is fired for every character I enter and the control's "Text" property is updated correctly. But if I enter only 1 character and set the focus to a control outside the user control that contains the textbox, another change event is being fired. Additionaly, the "Text" property is set to the original value (without the entered character). If I enter 2 characters or set the focus to a control within the containing user control, everything is fine.

    - RichTextBox Speed I am building an IRC client in C#. I am having trouble displaying the messages in a quick and efficient manner. I need to format the messages (font size, font color, etc) as they arrive from the server Everything I have read says to use the RichTextBox. The problem is that the RichTextBox is too slow. It flickers and the text scrolls much too slow. I have tried various "hacks" to get rid of the flicker and speed up the update, but nothing seems to work. The various methods I have tried include preventing the control from redrawing itself by calling the WM_SETREDRAW method Is there any way to "speed up" the RichTextBox? Can I create a control that inherits from the RichTextBox class and somehow make it update faster? For that matter, can I create a control that inherits from the TextBox class and make it support text formatting Here is the code I am using right now to add formatted text to the RichTextBox control (the slow code) textMessage.SuspendLayout() textMessage.Select(vAdvRichTextBox.Text.Length, 0) textMessage.SelectedText = vText textMessage.Select(vAdvRichTextBox.Text.Length - vText.Length + 1, vText.Length) textMessage.SelectionColor = vForeColor textMessage.SelectionFont = vFont textMessage.ResumeLayout(true) textMessage.SelectionStart = vAdvRichTextBox.Text.Length textMessage.SelectionLength = 0 textMessage.ScrollToCaret() Any ideas Phil Tag: Having trouble with ShowInTaskBar property and child windows, any idea?

    - Using the MS IE HTML control to print a HTML document Folks, I'm facing a dilemma - my users would like to print a number of HTML forms that I generate from XML. They would like to do this in a batch-like manner, e.g. select a number of those forms to print, and then have my app print one after another, without prompting them, without interrupting their work. I can easily read the data and convert it to HTML (using an XSL transform), but here's the thorny part - how do I print this to the default printer, quietly, without showing any dialogs and prompts?? Basically, I was hoping to "recycle" all my code that I already have to display those forms on screen. In this case, I open a Windows form, which contains the Internet Explorer ActiveX control. Works nicely. But when I try to do this "secretly", without showing the form to the user, but just using it as a container to fill my HTML into and then print it from there, I keep getting errors such as: "An unhandled exception of typ System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException has occured in system.windows.forms.dll. Unable to get the window handle for the 'AxWebBrowser' control. Windowless ActiveX controls are not supported." This is plain greek to me ;-) What does it mean, and is there really no way to use some of the IE controls provided by MS to load and print a HTML document "silently" in the background?

Every once in a while when a user loads data into a grid they will get a big red X in the area usually consumed by the grid and a JIT error box with no real meaningful information (of course no data is visible).

    - DataGrid refresh with IBindingList - MergeFileInfoList.cs (0/1) I am hoping someone can give me some help/pointers to a problem I'm having binding an ArrayList to a DataGrid. In an attempt to teach myself various aspects of .Net development I am trying to write a very simple C# Windows Forms application for merging files together. The user interface consists of: - A DataGrid with the ordered list of files to be merged along with their length and last access time. - Command Buttons to Add a File to be merged, Remove a File from the list, Remove All Files from the list, and Perform the merge. - Buttons to move the currently selected file up/down within the list. - Buttons to move the currently selected file to bottom/top of the list. My first pass at this was to use an ArrayList of FileInfo objects bound to the DataGrid and use a DataGridTableStyle and DataGridTextBoxColumn objects to only display the properties within FileInfo I wanted. This worked fine EXCEPT that the only way to have the DataGrid update when new entries were added/removed from the ArrayList was to set the DataSource property to null and then set it back to my ArrayList. I wanted to avoid this "reset" of the DataSource so in doing some searching I think I found that in order to automatically refresh I needed to implement an object that Implements the IBindingList interface. I found some sample code on www.codeproject.com and tailored it to my needs. Now, after setting the DataSource to my IBindingList object and performing a number of Add() calls nothing shows up in the DataGrid. Using the debugger I've confirmed that the entries are in the list. I'm obvioiusly missing something important but have no idea what it is. Any help is appreciated.

    - Mantain state in forms and avoid kill handlers Hi, I have a form with a lot of ComboBox (with a lot of items), and it is used very frequently. So, I want to reduce the latency to show the form. I test to assign the instance of the form after close in a static field, and show it again (with ShowDialog). This approach reduce the time to half (although, the handles are destroyed when the form is closed, and recreated when it is showed again). But I notice some problems (for example, the MouseEnter and MouseLeave events are not fired over controls the second time I show the form). Other requirements: - The form must be modal (so, I can't use a Show/Hide methods) - I need to persist the state in the form (I need to keep the selected options) Any advice?

Hi All,

(I have posted similiar question ealier. Hope the other smart ones can
also catch this mesage instead.)

I have an windows form application that dynamically creates a lot of
child windows. I want such that when the user clicks on one of the child
windows, the window should goes to the front, but NOT the other windows.

If I set the ShowInTaskBar property to true for all the child windows,
then I get the effect (as mentioned above) that I want. But if the
property is set to false. Any time I click on one of the child windows, the
window goes to the top, but so DOES the other child windows!

Can anyone may tell me why and give me a hint or two to resolve this
issue?

- JB

P.S. Thanks for Iulian and other posters who gave me some sugestions in the
past.
