    - PropertyGrid and UITypeEditor Hi! So I've created a custom class and I'm working on creating editor support for it. I've created and bound a custom UITypeEditor to it and everything. Here's the thing though: At design time, the property editor shows the little ... button next to a property of my type. I can clikc the button and a dialog pops up which I created. This is good and works as I expected. Here's the problem - at run time, I have a property grid control and I have SelectedObject set to an instance of an object which has a member of my type. However, when I select the property at run time using a propertygrid control on my form, the property is greyed out as if it was readonly, and the ... box doesn't show up. What do I need to do to be able to edit my control at runtime? Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 90063

    - How to force a datagrid to redraw? Hi, I've a datagrid bound to a dataview, the problem is when I cancel the row delete, one of the rows in the datagrid disppears. If there is only one row in the grid that row disappears. If there are three rows and I cancel the deletion of the first row then the last row will disappear. The funniest part is the row will reappear if I click on the column header to sort it. I read another post in this forum which mentioned forcing the grid to redraw after cancelling the delete will solve the problem, but I can't find a way to force the redraw. I've tried grid.refresh, currencymanager.refresh, even cleared the databinding and rebound the grid, nothing happens. Can someone help me please. Thanks in advance, Debi ******************************************* Private Sub OnGrid_RowDeleting(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataRowChangeEventArgs) Try If Not Deleterow(sender, e) Then bUnDelete = True End If Catch ex As Exception WriteToErrorLog(ex.Message & "----" & ex.StackTrace) Finally End Try End Sub Private Sub OnGrid_RowDeleted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As DataRowChangeEventArgs) Try If bUnDelete Then e.Row.RejectChanges() '''''''''''''''''''''''Redraw here????????????

    - Keeping track of checked nodes in treeview Hi I have a treeview where I want to perform some actions on only the checked nodes. I don't really want to have to traverse the entire tree every time, since it's a pretty big tree, so what I was trying to do was keep a list of all the checked nodes - I handle the aftercheck event so that every time a node is checked I add it to my list, and when it's unchecked I remove it from my list. This can become clumsy, though - for example, if I want to programmatically uncheck some nodes, I can't just iterate through my list and uncheck them, since that will modify the collection that I'm enumerating through. Is there a better approach that I'm missing? Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 90051

    - owner drawn ListBox repaint issues I am using variable height owner-drawn ListBox using new Visual Studio 2005 Beta. It appears to not repaint items in ListBox until I actually select them. In the constructor of my ListBox I call the following code: <code> this.DrawMode = DrawMode.OwnerDrawVariable; this.DrawItem += new DrawItemEventHandler(HandleDrawItem); this.MeasureItem += new MeasureItemEventHandler(HandleMeasureItem); this.HorizontalScrollbar = true; this.MouseDown += new MouseEventHandler(HandleMouseDown); this.MouseUp += new MouseEventHandler(HandleMouseUp); this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw | ControlStyles.OptimizedDoubleBuffer | ControlStyles.UserPaint | ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, true); this.UpdateStyles(); </code> Then in the DrawItem and MeasureItem code I do the following: <code> public void HandleDrawItem(Object sender,DrawItemEventArgs e) { if (e.Index < 0) return; e.DrawBackground(); //Draw control onto bitmap Control ctrl = (Control)this.Items[e.Index]; //using (Image tmpImg = new Bitmap(ctrl.Bounds.Width, ctrl.Bounds.Height)) //{ // using (Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(tmpImg)) // { // Utils.ControlPainter.PaintControl(g, ctrl); // } // ////map ctrl location to viewport coordinates // //Point loc = ctrl.Location; // ////top left of viewport corresponds to // ////location of topCtrl // //Control topCtrl = (Control)this.Items[this.TopIndex]; // //loc.Offset(-topCtrl.Location.X, -topCtrl.Location.Y); // //g.TranslateTransform(loc.X, loc.Y); // e.Graphics.DrawImage(tmpImg, e.Bounds); //} e.Graphics.DrawString("item: " + e.Index, this.Font, Brushes.Blue, e.Bounds); e.DrawFocusRectangle(); } public void HandleMeasureItem(Object sender,MeasureItemEventArgs e) { if (e.Index >= this.Items.Count) { return; } Control ctrl = (Control)this.Items[e.Index]; ctrl.Location = nextLocation; e.ItemHeight = ctrl.Height; nextLocation.Y += e.ItemHeight; e.ItemWidth = ctrl.Width; HorizontalExtent = Math.Max(e.ItemWidth, HorizontalExtent); } </code> However, the painting doesn't appear to be done until I actually select the item.

    - *insert curse here* Hi I have a simple app where the user is prompted with a password dialog. When the password is being entered, the cursor is hidden as I assume is default XP behavior. The problem is when the user closes the dialog pressing the enter key (without any mouse movements done) the cursor will only reappear again when a mouse button has been clicked, not only by mouse movements. I have tried putting a Application.DoEvents() after the dialog closes but that only solves the problem when the cursor is located above the parent form. If the cursor is outside, it still won't reappear when moved back over the form. Any known reason for this? /Andreas Zita Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 90024

    - MAPISendMail Hangs Hello Group! MAPISendMail hangs forever. It only works if in the VS.NET debugger I hit a breakpoint anywhere *after* MAPILogon and *before* MAPISendMail. Without breakpoint the app hangs forever on MAPISendMail.

    - Serializing changes made to control via custom designer to source Got a custom designer that changes the arrangement of subcontrols in a custom control. It works fine, but if I save the form/rebuild the solution, exit out, and re-open the form, the subcontrols are back to their original place. I know I have to change how the custom control is serialized back to the code, and I believe it has something to do with Type Converters, but all I can find is information on how to serialize properties. Since this is not a property, but the order subcontrols are added to the custom control, I don't know how to deal with this. How do I go about doing this? TIA. Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item?

    - Siziing UserControls via a custom ControlDesigner We need to know which edge of a UserControl is being stretched when in design mode. We've created our own CustomControlDesigner, derived from ControlDesigner for our UserControl. We can't find a way to determine which edge of the Designer/Control is being stretched when the control is being resized in design mode. We want to resize different fields within the UserControl, based on the edge being dragged. There does not appear to be a way to get a mouse-down event before the resize to see which edge the user is being dragged. Any Ideas? Thanks Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 90011

    - .NET - MDI - Container - (Internet Explorer) ActiveX loses parent Hi everyone, We are currently developing an application in C# which has MDI forms. Each MDI form has a detach-button which removes the form from its parent and displays it as a regular form. In .NET, you can use the System.Windows.Forms.Form.MdiParent property. Everything seems to work when regular .NET controls are part of the MDI form. However, if there's an ActiveX control on the form, it loses its parent and gets drawn somewhere on the screen, floating, not part of the MDI parent and not part of the MDI form. This is the case with for example the Internet Explorer ActiveX (shdocvw), the Remote Desktop ActiveX (msrdp) and probably a lot of others. We did not have that problem with a third-party component, which seems to remember its direct parent. I guess we forgot something in the approach on how to handle the microsoft ActiveXs. Has anybody a clue for this problem? We already checked every property of the AxHost and Form (container, toplevelcontrol, toplevel, parent, ...) but they're all updated correctly after the detach. We also tried to toy with the SetChildIndex function... Here are the important snippets of a sample application, full source upon request. Project consists of 2 forms, MainForm (the MDI parent) and ChildForm (the MDI child). --- MainForm Load event : Start --- this.IsMdiContainer = true; ChildForm child = new ChildForm(); child.MdiParent = this; child.ShowInTaskbar = false; child.Show(); child.ChangeUrl(); --- MainForm Load event : Stop --- ChildForm has one button (DetachButton) and an Internet Explorer ActiveX (Microsoft Web Browser from the Microsoft Internet Controls) --- ChildForm : DetachButton event : Start --- private void DetachButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { this.MdiParent = null; this.ShowInTaskbar = true; ChangeUrl(); } --- ChildForm : DetachButton event : Stop --- --- ChildForm : Public method : Start --- public void ChangeUrl() { axWebBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.microsoft.com"); } --- ChildForm : Public method : Stop --- Run the application and the MDI form will show the microsoft-website. Click detach and the form will be detached from its parent. The ActiveX starts floating and is not part of the ChildForm anymore. Thanks for your time!

    - Not sure of the subject... I have an app that allows users to supply custom values for various calculations; about 43 of them. I use checkboxes to identify the use or lack there of, of a custom value. I need to be able to tell when the check state changes. Instead of coding for each one of the 43 check boxes and text boxes, I'd like to have one sub that checks. I thought I would just add the name of the textbox to the checkbox tag and ctype it but I get an invalid cast exception. Here's what I am trying to accomplish: Private Sub chkFlightBlock_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles chkFlightBlock.CheckedChanged, ...., ...., chkAnotherCustom Dim ctl As TextBox ctl = CType(sender, CheckBox).Tag ctl.Enabled = CType(sender, CheckBox).Checked If CType(sender, CheckBox).Checked Then ctl.BackColor = System.Drawing.SystemColors.Window Else ctl.BackColor = System.Drawing.SystemColors.Control End If End Sub In essence, I'd like to store the name of the textbox in the checkbox and handle my code in one area instead of many different subs.

    - Validating grid data Hi, I am using the winforms datagrid and want to validate the data in the cells as I leave them. If the data is invalid I want to notify the user and focus him back on that cell. I have a number of textbox columns and one combobox column. I configured those fine with the column grid styles and have validation code hooked up to them. My problem is getting back to the cell that was just validated. I use the CurrentCellChanged event to capture the cell change but the CurrentCell property indicates the new cell. I would like to set the focus back to the cell that failed validation but I can't seem to figure out where that information might be saved. I can kludge the recording of the cell prior to the cell change, but it isn't convenient. Also, the validation event doesn't get triggered unless the column changes. Is there a way to get the validation event going in this case? I'm brute-forcing a call to it from the CurrentCellChanged event. It seems to me that there must be a better way.

Any other ways I can accomplish this? Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 89969

    - UI Cues not updating in designer Got a custom container control that contains other custom subcontrols that have a custom designer. The subcontrol's designer has a couple verbs that fire off events that changes the order of that subcontrol in the parent custom control. It's another version of the collapsible panel bar, where in designer you can right click on a panel and move it up or down in the panel bar. The problem I'm having is that when I move a panel, the UI cues don't get updated. The panels will move, but the selection highlight will not move with the panel. It appears that a different control is selected than actually is. Clicking on a different panel will update the cues (except when you click on the control that is highlighted incorrectly -- the cues already indicate it is selected, so no change appears to have been made). I can't find any information on how to refresh the cues. I've tried Invalidate and Refresh in the custom container control, but they don't work. TIA. Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item?

    - Asynchronous Drag and Drop I am trying to implement Asynchronously Drag and Drop from my windows application developed in c#. I 'd like a behavoir like winzip i.e. : when I drop on the target (a folder or the desktop) my file is not yet available and I want to start an asynchronous filetransfer managed from my application. At the end of this transfer, the drop target take the control and call the dodrop method and store the file. >From MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/programmersguide/shell_basics/shell_basics_programming/transferring/datascenarios.asp) I understand that this scenario is possible with a class that implement IDataObject and IASyncOperation interface. .NET give us the DataObject class that implement IDataObject but I can't find nothing about IASyncOperation (it isn't in shell32.dll). How can I implement it? Anyone has suggestions? Why it's so hard to find example about asynchronous D&D in .NET Thanks Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 89959

    - Problems with Simple DataBindings I've got problems with databindings in a windows forms application. I've wrote a component with a class (Article) with a public method (GetArticlesByRef) that returns a typed Dataset. This is the method: Public Function GetArticlesByRef(ByVal pRef As Integer) As dsArticles Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM Articles WHERE ART_REF = @Ref" Dim con As New SqlConnection("Data Source=(local);Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=eShop") Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(strSQL, con) cmd.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@Ref", SqlDbType.Int, 4)) cmd.Parameters("@Ref").Value = pRef Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(cmd) da.TableMappings.Add("Table", "dsArticles") Dim ds As New dsArticles da.Fill(ds) Return ds End Function In the windows forms i've added a typed dataset (dsArticles1), two TextBox and one button controls. In the first textbox the user enters a ref code. The second textbox is binded to the olumn ART_DESCRIPTION of the table Articles in the Dataset. Next is the code of the click event of the button: Dim art As New Article DsArticles1.Clear() DsArticles1 = art.GetArticlesByRef(Ctype(TextBox1.Text, Integer)) When I run the application, the bind doesn't work. It Only works if I add a typed Dataset to the form and i load it from a SQLDataadapter. The problem is when i use a component. Thanks in advance. Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 89956

    - Form validation problem Hi, i'm trying to force validation of each control in a form by setting focus explicitly on each control prior to calling this.Validate(). The idea is to ensure that the data is validated when the user presses the ok button on the form. The problem is that setting focus on some controls alters the state of the control. For example, setting focus on radiobuttons sets the checked state to true. Is there anyway to force control validation without altering the state of the control? I saw one eample using reflection, forcing the control's validation event to occur, but i dont want to reflect into the private methods of the .net framework for future compability.

    - No-Touch Ent Lib I am getting an error with no touch deployment using Enterpise Lib. in my project. The error is: Invalid section name. The section 'dataConfiguration' does not exist in the requested configuration file myapp.exe.config or machine.config. Make sure that the 'enterpriseLibarary.configurationSections' configuration sectino exists in tone of the files and that th esection 'dataConfiguration' is defined'. It is defined I just think it may not be copying down the dataconfiguration.config file. Has anyone else run into this or have any insight on how I would attack this. Thanks for your help!

    - Single instance of an app I'd like to prevent my app from running more than once. In VB6 this was simple using PrevInstance. MSDN Library describes using Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessByName to see if the the currently running thread has another instance running.

    - I need a basic grid type control - not a data bound bloated control I'm at a loss to figure out how to use VB NET to create a simple, unbound grid - style Windows control to display data. I'm not interested in data- binding, sql, or OLEdb.

    - Resolution? I have a strange bug that I can't seem to figure out. I have a VB.Net application that is deployed on 100 different computers. On two of the machines the controls on one of the forms seem to "hang" off the edge of the screen when the form is maximized. The window resizes itself perfectly fine when maximized but the controls in the form itself seem to think the form is bigger and hang off the edge of the screen and can not be reached. Changing the monitor resolution does not solve this problem. Now, keep in mind, only two of the deployments are having this problem. Every other machine that uses the application resizes the controls properly. Has anyone experienced this before? Any ideas would be extremely helpful as I've tried a LOT of different things that do not work at all. Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 89929

    - how to add editable checkbox bound datagrid I've seen similar questions asked but no answer. I need to add an editable checkbox to a bound datagrid using vb.net. Help! Tag: Listbox event for add/remove item? Tag: 89927

I want to enable/disable buttons depending on whether items exist in a
listbox. I thought fore sure there would be an event anytime an item was
added/removed from a listbox...and I could register for it to change my
button status.

But...I can't seem to find these events? Am I missing something? Is there
any event that I could use?

I assume the user does something to remove an item from the list box? What
you should do is every time they do something that changes through the list
box you itterate through the collection and disable and enable other controls
based on whats in their.

Hope that helps,

If you created listbox, then you control how it behaves.
So you can add your own custom event and corresponding event handler to be
called from relevant methods
