    - Why is a sound played when I press alt-enter on a form? The subject's the tl;dr version. The situation is that I'm zooming my form to fullscreen when I hit alt- enter (kinda like media player behavior). Now my code to go to fullscreen does not cause the windows "default beep" sound to play. But when I hit alt-enter on the form that sound is played. And it only plays when zooming to fullscreen; pressing alt-enter when in fullscreen does not cause the sound to play. I've got a tool strip on the form; could it possibly be something to do with it?

    - MI5 Persecution: Goldfish and Piranha 29/9/95 (5512) I just thought I'd let you know what I've been reading into the "Crusader" spam. I don't want to post this to usenet because somebody might try to tie that in to my posts in some way (someone already has, in uk.misc). First of all, I'd like to ask you to believe that my phone line in my apartment is bugged, and has been for many months. I have moved a couple of times this year, but "they" have faithfully been on my trail. Anyway, let's suppose my phone line is bugged. Now, when I talk to my internet service provider, it's over a SLIP (now PPP) connection. So if you wanted to bug what was said, either you'd listen in over the line and have to decode the transmission, or you could go to the service provider (more difficult) and ask them to decode a particular user's connection. OK, so now they're listening to everything I do over my SLIP/PPP connection. A couple of months ago I was messing around with faking articles through nntp servers and through anonymous remailers. I chose a nice inconspicuous newsgroup for my little tests, something no-one would ever notice. Guess which newsgroup I chose??? Yes, _FISH_!!! or rec.aquaria to be precise And guess what articles I tried to post? Goldfish, Koi carp and, you'll never guess... PIRANHA!!! The goldfish article and the Koi went through, but the piranha didn';t appear. by now you probably think this is too silly for words. But if you look in the papers a few eeks ago you will find John Major, Tonny Blair and Paddy Ashdown sharing a "private joke" about Major's sunburnt goldfish. We haven't had anything about Koi yet (they must be too dull ). Now, sent by someone who clearly knew what they were doing (they chose an Italian backbone site for their launch point) we have many thousands of messages to people all over the globe. All about piranha, and with the punchline "that gives you something to think about, doesn't it?" The way it works is that they're trying to kill two birds with one stone again. I don't knoiw why they should be against these national alliance people, but my interpretation is that they simultaneously try to discredit them, and stem the flow of Corley articles. ================================================================= In article <DFnE55.8tF.0.bloor@torfree.net>, Mike Corley <bu765@torfree.net> wrote: > >John J Smith (J.J.Smith@ftel.co.uk) wrote: > >: b) we do know who you are.

But at least we're observing a studied silence for now. :People can always be called "MR X", to save them being named. : :I'm completely perplexed as to what you mean by b). Revealing identity? :To who? And why would this be bad for any part of your life when you :already have a less than respectful reputation here? I'll just enumerate one or two things that I can still remember. Sometime around August/Sept 1992 I was living in a house in Oxford, and coming out of the house was physically attacked by someone - not punched, just grabbed by the coat, with some verbals thrown in for good measure. That was something the people at work shouldn't have known about... but soon after a couple of people were talking right in front of me about, "yeah, I heard he was attacked". Again, one I went for a walk in some woods outside Oxford. The next day, at work, someone said "you know he went to the forest yesterday". I don't want to put details on usenet of what happened because to do so would be to risk it happening again. If you put ideas in peoples' heads then you can find them reflecting back at you, and I don't want that. Also I can't remember that much from three years ago. From november 1992 I started taking "major tranquilizers" and just blotted the whole thing from my mind. >This is a feature time and time again, that the security services >(presumed) get at you by manipulating other people around you to get at >you. If you have their contacts, manpower, resources and technology then >you can do that sort of thing. :But why? Are you a threat? They pretend they "have" to get at me. After the first few weeks they had to find a reason to spy and abuse. You can't abuse someone unless they're in the wrong in some way. What I did "wrong" was to be ill. So it became "nutter" and "monster" and "he's going to attack us" coupled with "ha ha ha, he can't do anything to defend himself, it was so funny". That obvious contradiction within their propaganda is something they blithely ignore. :So, the Security Services never *actually* appear, and you assume that :they get someone else to do your dirty work. This is a bit of a big :logical step, here: That person doesn't like me, or is causing me trouble, :it's not because they've got problems themselves, it must be the "Security :Services". Yes. Because people are infallible. Or is there more? A single source is indicated because of the range of harassment. BBC + Capital + manipulated_public_at_large + set_up_situations, what does that add up to? Add in the technology to carry out the covert spying and the manpower and knowhow to follow you around for five years without being spotted. It smells very much of the security services, because there is no other organization (to my knowledge) which does the things I've seen these people do. Remember, they have deliberately chosen the softest of soft targets to victimize. They purposely chose a mentally ill person who they thought would be likely to kill himself anyway, so that they could get away with murder. And in all likelihood it will have started as a personal vendetta by someone. Who could that be? I don't know, but I can give you some clues. The first possibility (deep breath) is that someone from my college set me up. Six years ago I graduated from university in the UK, during the last year there I was steadily getting more and more ill. I know that I was talking in my sleep; although I don't know what I was saying, it got me a reputation, and if someone from my college talked afterwards to the "wrong" people then that could be the reason for all that has followed. I think that's the strongest contender for source. Directly beneath my room lived another bloke who frequently had his friends round late at night, after the time that I went to sleep. So they could have heard what I was saying in my sleep, and that could have got me the reputation for "talking to myself". What I don't know is why that should have rebounded a year after I left. You'd think it would have happened sooner; it's a bit odd to wait for a year and then start abuse. That leads me to question what in particular happened around May/June 1990 for them to start then. >What I don't know is how it looks from the other side, from the side of >the people who are being manipulated to get at me. On a couple of >occasions I have challenged people to tell the truth of the matter, but >they have alwats ducked the challenge. :Have you ever considered the possibility, that you have made a mistake, and :the people don't know what you are talking about? Yes. I am currently considering the possibility that some people around me know only what is being posted on Usenet, and have not been "contacted" by "them". But I _know_ that others have been contacted. :What words? Are they in common use? Could they be a catchphrase of a :popular comedian?: "Nice to see you, to see you nice"? In England the all-time No. 1 is "nutter". Easter this year, returning home from Clapham police station to report five years of harassment ("we're not saying it's happening and we're not saying it isn't happening"), another "not happening" incident of harassment when a cowardly little slut did her country proud by yelling "nutter, nutter, nutter" in the face of the hated enemy. What can you do about that? You can't yell abuse back in their face, because they know they're supported by their peers, by the media, by the murderers in the security forces. You can't put them down when the fascist establishment is on their side. You can't hit them, because they would deny their abuse, they would deny knowing anything, and bring charges against the "nutter" who attacked them "at random". >You know, you're >passing saomeone, they're hardly going to construct an argument for your >benefit, so they work a word of abuse into the conversation which they >can giggle at. :Abuse such as what? We're all adults here, we can take it. Is this abuse :aimed at you? How can you tell it is? I think I've said already what the words are. Thing is, at any given time the language is consistent. In January everyone's calling you X, then a few weeks later people stop calling you X and start calling you Y. You can tell it's aimed at me, because when people repeatedly say the same words are you walk past, then laugh, you would have to be hard of understanding not to recognize it. >Or they repeat something that's been said somewhere else... the PE thing >being a case in point.

You see, the kernel >of vitriol is in the words "come back". At the time, the themes of >abuse were centred around interpretations of those two words (stretch your >mind a little bit, I don't have to spell it out for you, surely). :You did in your mail item. : :You seem to be scouting about something called a "Double Entendre". The :inference being "Come" = Ejaculation, "Back" = Anus (not the first part :of the body I would have went for, I would have foolishly gone for "Back", :silly old me). : :You see to have picked a sodomy double entendre out of a Private Eye :headline. They are everywhere. The English language has much double :meaning in it, and if you put your mind to it, you could pull a double :entendre out of a randomly chosen page of the bible. So what? >The point is that when Simon pointed it out to Phil, he did recognise >what it meant after a moment's thought... and so did I... and so did the >people who repeated it several times later... so however murky it may >seem to you, that is the meaning they intended it to have... I still don't really know if the meaning was intended when that headline was written, or if it was simply "found" after the fact. The reason I think it might be the former is that I got quite a lot of abuse along the lines of "sound-alike" or "double-entendre" at work, in particularly from Steve. So "double" inevitably came to mean split-personality, "two people in one"; "back" inevitably came to mean "backside", "come" inevitably meant you-know- what, "split" (well, we'd better split now) again you can guess, "bent" (of a similar bent), the list goes on forever. These aren't "nice" double- entendres intended for comedy, they're nasty words to humiliate and cause pain. If I could turn the clock back three years then I would sue my former employers for harassment and I would almost certainly win. I had to take pills after a year of Oxford, so they wouldn't be able to lie their way out of it. Actually, I could still take them to court - the main obstacle being that three years after the fact is a bit late and much of what happened, the details that would be necessary for a case to go to court, has just been obliterated by time. : Smid ============================================== From: flames@flames.cityscape.co.uk (Peter Kr|ger) Newsgroups: uk.misc,soc.culture.british,alt.conspiracy,uk.media,uk.legal Subject: Re: Mike Corley - a (helpful) suggestion Date: Mon Oct 2 05:43:42 1995 In article <812551172snz@objmedia.demon.co.uk>, Snail <snail@objmedia.demon.co.uk> says: >Indeed, I feel that my Usenet access is censored simply because I don't want >to download groups he is partaking in, because of his behaviour. > >I wasn't that bothered, but I am starting to get seriously pissed off >with him. Which takes a lot. Hi Snail This person Corley seems quite interesting for three reasons. I put the following at the end of a post in another thread just to see if he was reading any other threads in uk.media. It seems he is probably not. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Heres an interesting little story from back in the early days of CCD technology. There was this miniature camera which was designed to fit behind the infrared receiver lens of the remote control system (just beside the IR sensor itself) the camera clocked out the data in 256 lines of 256 pixels from a Fairchild chip and fed it out, a line at a time, into the VBI within the TV set itself. The signal could be picked up remotely from a standard license detector van from where it was stripped out of the surrounding RF signal and relayed back to the TV station where it was displayed as a slowscan monochrome image in a corner of the news readers monitor. 5512 Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111837

Why would "they" wish to assassinate your character? Well, let's put it this way - just because this is the first time it's happened in this way, from these people, on this scale, doesn't mean that it hasn't happened before, on a lesser scale. At university there were people who quite overtly hated me and would have wished something nasty to happen to me. Because of where I went making the wrong sort of enemies is pretty deadly. "They" would wish to assassinate my character because it had all been done before, and because they knew I would not be able to react in any other way than I'd reacted previously. >>> ##: They invaded my home with their bugs, they repeated what I >>> ##: was saying in the privacy of my home, and they laughed that it >>> ##: was "so funny", that I was impotent and could not even communicate >>> ##: what was going on.

Please give details of when, where and by whom these comments were made, so that they can be checked. This was four, five years ago... sorry, I don't remember. I can remember individual incidents, words which were repeated by different people at different times in different locations. Around the end of 1992 Private Eye rtan a front-cover with John and Norma Major, with the title "Major's support lowest ever" and John saying to Norma "Come back norma" on the front cover. What can you read in to that? Not a lot, seems like standard fare for PE. The first time I saw it I was in the pub with some people from work. One was expressing doubts to the other (let's call the first one Simon, shall we? and the second one Phil?) about whether what was going on was right. Phil's answer was that if Private Eye was doing it then it must be ok, "they're usually right". A few days later, again near work, there were some students laughing in the street, "Were you COMING BACK later? But I thought you said you were COMING BACK ha ha ha?" Play on words, you see. Not very nice, either. I had start medication soon afterwards. Clever people, these chaps who think up PE titles. Just slightly lacking in any sense of morality. >>> ##: How did they do this?

Mr Tarrant gives us the benefit of his excellent understanding. >>> ##: That's exactly what we did.

And that was at my local police station in London - if anyone in the police knew you would think the people at your local cop shop would. A couple of years ago I had to go into the station after a motoring infraction, the guy I spoke to then said something about "brain like a computer sir" which my suspicions latched on to - (I'm alleged to be a programmer as some people reading this know) - but as per the usual "can';t prove nuthin" and you ask yourself if you're just being stupid suspecting on the basis of a straw > 2.

But he would probably tell me to go see the police, for which see above. > 3. Make it visible through the UK Press. (Mike's rationale: > "Can't because they are part of the Conspiracy") > They are actually. There's a difference though in the way journalists react to this stuff when they're "got to" by the security service. This is completely giving the game away, but the trouble originally started with my reading into stuff that was being written by Times columnists, in particular our antagonistic friend Mr Levin. But you see that some journalists are taking part in the conspiracy and others are only doing it because their puppet masters have been feeding them information which they can't allow themselves to ignore. The security services have their hooks into the UK media, this case shows that very explicitly. You also see how things get gradualkly wqorse with a particular journalist; a couple of weeks ago Peter Tory in the Express was writing about "nerds seeking their revenge on him through the Net", guess what that was about. > 4. Complain to the UK Security Services. (Mike's rationale: "Can't > because they ARE the Cnspiracy") > Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

The perpetrators are UK residents, are unidentified, and would be difficult to deal with through the Canadian courts. Ditto the police in Canada, ditto the press - it isn't their problem, it's caused by UK people against someone from the UK. Of course Canadian laws are being broken relating to harassment and "stalking" which do not exist in the UK, but the Canadian police do not have a very good record of enforcing those laws anyway. > 7.

Remember, nobody uis going to side with the person who has less power in a copfrontation. The team over here in Canada have the resources of their organization behind them, other broadcasters etc in the UK would have influence with their counterparts in Canada; after all, this was once a British colony, there is still a feeling of "looking up to" the UK among many Canadians, so if a team of security services arrives from the UK with apparently limitless resources to pursue their target, people over here will forget anything they ever knew about basic human rights and go along with what they are told to do and how they are told to behave. > 9.

    - WinForm Drawing App Question need to be able to display something similar to the way Crystal Reports allows you to link tables. I want to display tables in rectangles with fields listed in the rectangle. I need to be able to draw lines between the rectangles to indicate relationships. I just need help in gettng started. My initial thought is to have listboxes displayed on a form with the ability to drag them around. I would create a panel on a winform and have the user select the tables from a list and then I would place the selected tables in list boxes on the panel. Am I on the right track or is there a better way to do this? Thanks Bill Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111818

    - Fade Transition Trick We are trying to use basic windows forms to do "fancy" transitions on our application. When switching between main form controls (docked to full), we want to make it look like one is fading out and the other fading in. Since the UserControls don't support 'Opacity' I built a transition panel that shows a modal form (with internal timer) that fades out, then back in when the next control is shown. The Transition form is shown over the area of the main form's child controls. It functions as expected, however when the transition form hits opacity 1.0 (goes from 0 to 1, to 0 again to simulate fading out then back in), I get a flash of black once before it starts to fade back to 0 opacity. The backcolor and forecolor are set to white. I have overriden OnPaintBackground, but it isn't being called. It definitely seems like the parent is refreshing (because I change the control states of the main control to visible at the mid fade point) and causing the modal dialog to repaint black. If it flashed white, I would be OK with that, but I would prefer it to always repaint the current screen. In MFC and C++ I recall that you could setup the default brush for erasing. Not sure if there is a .NET equivalent. I do have a picture box on the form. Is it possible that it's OnPaingBackground is causing the flash? Any thougths would be helpful. I am sure I am missing some vital step here. -- Brian R. Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111808

    - Control drawing over contained control I have a class derived from UserControl. The control displays a layout that I want to use on several different controls/forms. The containing control/form would then paint over the layout with additional information. The problem is that when I draw a line in the control containing the layout control (in my case, another UserControl derived class), the line is behind the layout control. I have tried turning off the WS_CLIPCHILDREN style in the CreateParams, but that doesn't seem to make a difference. I want to avoid drawing all possibilities in the layout control, but cannot find the right code to do it. Is there a way to do this or is my architecture incorrect?

The intent is to share the directory and allow multiple persons to run the exe on the one server. What are some of the potential problems? (Just looking for general feedback.

    - Big picture question about the deployment of Winforms exe's I work in a company with a large corporate intranet. Many of the servers are both SQL Server hosts and file servers. For reasons beyond my understanding (i.e. management), it has been proposed that a new Winforms application be deployed by putting it on the same server as the database server it uses. Presumably users would just set up mapping to that server via Windows Explorer and probably set up a shortcut icon on their desktop. (I really haven't given much thought to this sort of a problem, since much of my recent work as been in Webforms.) What would be the drawbacks of this approach, if any?

    - how to raise user events in VS 2005 (COM) sub-Winform, handle in V I am trying to raise a user-defined Event in a VB.NET 2005 COM Class (sub)form and have my calling VB6 form handle it. Code samples follow. In the VS 2005 code two events are coded identically - when they are RAISEd in reaction to a Framework Event they WORK, but when they are RAISEd in response to by user action within the VB.NET 2005 Subform they do NOT: =================================== ' 1. Here are the Events, defined in the same fashion in the VS 2005 (sub)form =================================== #Region "User-Defined Variables" Public Event ExitOBRpayerDialog() Public Event NetworkAvailabilityChanged( _ ByVal IsAvailable As Boolean) =================================== ' 2. Here are the Event Handlers for the Subs that will Raise the Events ' to the calling VB6 form, both added in the VS 2005 (sub)form constructor =================================== #Region " Windows Form Designer generated code " Public Sub New() MyBase.New() 'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer. InitializeComponent() 'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call AddHandler Me.FormClosing, AddressOf frmOBRpayer_FormClosing AddHandler My.Computer.Network.NetworkAvailabilityChanged, _ AddressOf My_NetworkAvailabilityChanged AddHandler btnCustom.Click, AddressOf btnCustom_Click End Sub =================================== 3. Here are the VS 2005 Subs that are supposed to Raise the Events. When the OS raises the My.Computer.Network.NetworkAvailabilityChanged event, both User Events are raised by the first Sub below. They BOTH fire and are handled properly by the VB6 calling form!!! When either of the other two Subs is executed it is because of a Form Event, i.e. a user clicking a button (Form Close in the 2nd sub and btnCustom in the second). In this case, NEITHER User Event that is RAISED gets back to the VB6 program and neither is handled!!! The VB6 code for both Events is similar also, but I include it further below for completeness anyhow. WHY oh WHY cannot I fire my User Events with a form button click? WHY does an Event raised by the OS work and a user action does not??? (BTW, the way the OS fires both events is when I pull the network cable out of my workstation). =================================== Public Sub My_NetworkAvailabilityChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As _ Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.NetworkAvailableEventArgs) RaiseEvent ExitOBRpayerDialog() RaiseEvent NetworkAvailabilityChanged(e.IsNetworkAvailable) Application.DoEvents() End Sub ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Public Sub frmOBRpayer_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Dim crCloseReason As Windows.Forms.CloseReason Dim ev As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.NetworkAvailableEventArgs(False) Try crCloseReason = CloseReason.UserClosing crCloseReason = e.CloseReason Select Case crCloseReason Case CloseReason.UserClosing PayerCode = "71LA" RaiseEvent ExitOBRpayerDialog() ' DOES NOT FIRE - why oh why? Application.DoEvents() Case Else PayerCode = "OOPS" If OBRMode Then RaiseEvent ExitOBRpayerDialog() ' DOES NOT FIRE - why oh why? Application.DoEvents() Else RaiseEvent ExitOBRpayerDialog() ' DOES NOT FIRE - why oh why? Application.DoEvents() End If End Select Catch ex As Exception If exceptionPolicy.HandleException(ex) Then Me.handle_Ignorable_Exception(ex) Finally Call My_NetworkAvailabilityChanged(Me, ev) ' DOES NOT FIRE even though the Sub is the one that RAISEs bothEvents! End Try End Sub ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Public Sub btnCustom_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) ' Does a custom form operation. First removes any errors on the form, ' then restores the data at it looked before the last user Save.

Catch ex As Exception If exceptionPolicy.HandleException(ex) Then Me.handle_Ignorable_Exception(ex) End Try End Sub =================================== ' 4.

    - grid of user controls Hi Looking for a bit of advice here. I'm building an application that needs to display a grid (days in a year or month along the top and people down the side) in which each cell is a user control. The number of rows and columns are both variable. I've contemplated and partially tried various ways to tackle this, e.g.: - DataGrid (need to define columns, styles? - not got that far) - DataGridView (ditto - better / easier than DataGrid?) - Adding controls to a scrollable panel (possible issues with running out of window handles with large grid) I did also try doing this by rendering a large bitmap - this ran fairly nicely when it worked but I kept getting OutOfMemory exceptions and I would have to sacrifice a lot of flexibility and interactivity. As you can see I have a few ideas and I was wondering if anyone out there had any suggestions, alternatives or hints on what best practice might be with this sort of thing?

Reading on MSDN i thought the following will work - private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { userControl11.axMsRdpClient1.Server = "testserver";//put server here userControl11.axMsRdpClient1.Connect(); userControl11.axMsRdpClient1.AdvancedSettings2.EnableWindowsKey = 0; userControl11.axMsRdpClient1.AdvancedSettings2.HotKeyCtrlEsc = 0x23; } but it doesn't seem to work.So every time I hit the windows key, its the local computers windows menu that pops up. I want the remote computer's windows to do so. Same with the alt+tab and other escape sequences Anybody knows how to do this?

    - Usercontrol validating with messagebox and tabcontrol For a Windows forms application I use the following construction. I have a form with a TabControl. On each TabPage there is a custom user control. The custom user control gets some parameters from the form, to set the data of the user control. In the validating event of the custom user control I check or there are any changes made by the user. If so, a message box is shown with the question â??Save changes?â?? The validating event is fired on tab switch and form close, that is what I want. But the problem is, on tab switch the message box is shown, but after that the tabs donâ??t switch any more. Is there a way to achieve this goal, user controls that a self responsible for their data saving? Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111741

    - MessageBox in the middel of the application form, not in the middle of the screen - .net 1.1 , VS 2003 Hello, I have the following problem, which seems to be simple, but I see no solution. If I have for example: MessageBox.Show(......) this messagebox is allways in the middle of the screen. But on a screen with 1920x1200 pixel this is not very good because the application is for exampel in the top right corner. Is there any way to have the messageBox in the middle of the parent form? Must run under .net 1.1 / VS2003. Thank you for any help. Rolf Welskes Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111738

    - Problem with one touch deployment I can create a new project, add a button that displays a MessageBox and then publish it to the localhost. This works as expected. However, when I publish an existing application, I get no errors yet the publish location is empty! This existing project was once copied across from another machine but I have been publishing it to a file location with no problems, when I switch it to a URL, it doesn't work. The publish URL is http://localhost/test - note this works with a new project just not with the existing project. I have tried a filesystem path "c:\inetpub\wwwroot\test" and I get the same problem. Any help much appreciated... -- Best regards Mark Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111735

    - Problem with returning to XP with dual boot vista. I recently got Windos Vista, and I wanted to have it without losing windows XP, so I installed it on a seperate partition as a dual boot. Windows Vista works fine, but when I try to get back into Windows XP, I get a message saying the Hardware Ajustment Layer has been corrupted (HAL.DDL) I put in my Win XP disk to try to run recovery console, and it does not even detect that I have windows XP. All my user data is still on the C: drive, while vista is on F:, and it is locked from me being able to access it from Vista due to the password I put on XP. I even tried altering the access controlls. (cacls icacls), and I can not get to my data. Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111726

    - TabPage Control OnClick Event I am trying to run code that binds a DataGridView control on a TabPage. I inserted the code in the TabPage_Click event, but when the tab is clicked, the event never fires. I understand it is necessary to set the StandardClick style to enabled. I can't seem to find a StandardClick style on the TabControl, but I used the following code in the Form_Load event. this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.StandardClick, true); this.UpdateStyles(); Still no click event... Am I doing something wrong? -- Regards, Fred Chateau http://hotelmotelnow.com Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111709

    - host WindowsForm control in MFC Hi: We have a problem when host a Windowform control in MFC. The logic we used just as Chris Sells article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/03/03/WindowsForms/#S4 Everything went good. The control hosted in a MFC dialog. After open/close the dialog for couple of times, then we have following error: Managed Debugging Assistant 'ReportAvOnComRelease' has detected a problem in 'v:\Barracuda\Console\Bin\Barracuda.exe'. Additional Information: An exception was caught but handled while releasing a COM interface pointer through Marshal.Release or Marshal.ReleaseComObject or implicitly after the corresponding RuntimeCallableWrapper was garbage collected. This is the result of a user refcount error or other problem with a COM object's Release. Make sure refcounts are managed properly. The COM interface pointer's original vtable pointer was 0x78307604. While these types of exceptions are caught by the CLR, they can still lead to corruption and data loss so if possible the issue causing the exception should be addressed If it happens in the debug, you click the Continue button for couple of times, it can recovered from the exception. Anyone have idea what is going on? Thanks in advance. Tag: Issue getting the value from a Row["Column"] Tag: 111708

Hi guys,

Fighting with C#...
I have this code, and I can't find what I'm doing wrong... Any hint, please?

foreach (DataRow myRow in myDataSet.Tables[0].Rows)
{
strMyString = myRow["MyColumn"];
}

Error: Cannot implicitly convert type 'object' to 'string'. An explicit
conversion exists (are you missing a cast?)

Thanks a lot!
