    - I can't modify a MaskedTextBox control in binding. I do not succeed to modify the content of a MaskedTextBox control whose Property "OutputText" is in binding with field of type text of one table in database a MDB. The control has been generated making a drag-and-drop of the respective field from the window of the "Data Sources" of the plan and associating to same a control of the MaskedTextBox type to whose property "Mask" has been assigned the following string "00.00.00" (to represent a time). Only if i not set this property, I can to modify of the value, but in this way I do not formatting automatic input of the customer. From the same control, I want to be able to visualize the value of the field and to only modify of the value (in sure conditions). The development environment is Visual Basic .Net Express with Framework 2,0 Beta. Councils are accepted, Thanks, dumbo. Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88095

    - AutoScale Doesn't Behave How I Expect/Hope I have just been playing with AutoScale and I am unhappy with the way it appears to work. I have a form created on a desktop m/c where the screen font is Normal (96 dpi). The form looks fine at design time and runtime. I run the application on my laptop, where the screen font is set to 120 dpi (125%), and the form does not look fine. The line height of a listbox on the form is too small, labels are truncated, and things generally look cramped. AutoScale is set to True. I notice that when I open the designer on the desktop, the AutoScaleBaseSize is (5, 13). When I open the designer on the laptop it is also (5,13). If I then change the AutoScale property in the properties window and look again at AutoScaleBaseSize, it has changed to (6,15). Now when I run the application on the laptop all is well. Well, almost. I should point out that user controls on the form still do not scale correctly, and since they do not have an AutoScale property, all I can think of doing is calling the Scale() method with a parameter of 1.25. The problem with this approach is that I would have to do this for every user control, and there are a lot of them. It doesn't seem right that I have to add special code to all my user controls to get them to scale properly. Furthermore, I haven't discovered (yet) how to determine the correct scale factor at runtime. I thought that the point of the AutoScale property was that a form would display correctly on m/cs with different display settings, without having to rebuild on that m/c. It doesn't look like that is what really happens. Have I missed out a step here? Does anyone know the correct procedure for making this work?

    - Using a Web Browser Control on Windows Forms to display Web Archive (*.mht) File Folks, I'm trying to somehow manage to get the standard IE web browser control, hosted on a WinForm, to understand and display a "web archive" file (mywebarchive.mht) as saved by MS IE 6 (Save As - File Type: Web Archive (*.mht)). No luck so far - seems odd, since MS IE can produce and display those files just fine! What am I missing?? Thanks!

    - duplicate the FileWebRequest Class HI, newbie here.. What i want to do sounds very simple, but i am having a hard time getting the terms down so that i can even explain what i want to do. In any web browser where my client app is running, if there is a URL like "test://" or "dosomething://" that is clicked, i want my client app to catch that and do stuff. Please someone point me in the right direction. I have tried building an activex control but it dosnt support the DDE commands i want to use. I know that .Net dosnt either, but i am going around the whole DDE part in the long run. what i have is a phone applicaiton, i am integrating a web site with some of the parts of the phone app. when a phone number is displayed on my web app, it will have a hyperlink on like <'a href="call://201-555-1212">201-555-1212</a> This was my way of linking the two apps together (the call:// part) the phone app supports DDE, i have found a few free ocx's that will be my DDE client and server parts. But iam not worried about that for now. I just want to be able to pop up my client app when a link is clicked in IE and pass my app some variables. Thanks for any advise Tim Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88085

    - New Form Goes Behind Main Form when clicked. I have a main form and from it i am creating and showing a new form using the Show method. The form does not have an owner. It correctly appears on top of the main form but when i click it it goes behind the main form. If I then go bring the form to the front it is fine from that point forward. It is just the initial click after creation. I believe I have done what I describe here successfully in several apps before but I cannot figure out what is wrong here. Does anyone have any thoughts?

    - Problem Creating Handle I have a UserControl that contains a few ComboBoxes and TextBoxes. For most of the Controls/Forms that I drop this on, I'm not having any problems at all. One form, however, is giving me problems and it seems to be crashing in the CreateHandle method. I have put a breakpoint in the HandleCreated event of my UserControl, but it's never hitting it cuz it crashes before that. It's obviously having a problem creating the handle and I'm trying to figure out why. Does anybody know what event fires prior to the HandleCreated event? If I can set a breakpoint there maybe I can figure out what the problem is. TIA, ~~Bonnie Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88079

    - How Best to Move From Form to Form I've been a Web Developer for about 5 years, but am now being asked to write a Forms based application. My basic question is how best to move from form to form. I've read about MDI, ShowDialog, Form.Show(), and even just setting various forms from Visible = True to Visible = False. I guess, I'm a bit confused as to which would be the best implementation. Just to give a few details on my project... I will have a login screen, then once the user logs in I will have a main screen. Depending on the options selected on the main screen, the user will either be directed to a Delete Screen or a Copy Screen. The Delete Screen and the Copy screen really do nothing more than inform the user of actions taking place in a database. Basically just a logging/status screen. I know I'll need to implement threading for this, but I'm not sure how best to move from screen to screen. Thanks. Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88075

    - Some (not so?) general questions... Hi all. I'm primarly a C++ developer but I've been trying to complete development on a C# application with the following basic requirements: - The app runs in the background is initially hidden from the user, including the Windows Taskbar. - The app needs to receive a registered Windows message - The app needs to "register" its window handle with an unmanaged C++ dll so that a WM_USER message can be sent back to the C# app's WndProc - The app needs to display itself when receiving the WM_USER message, and hide itself after being acted upon by the user. I ran into some problems along the way and wondered if anyone could provide some feedback or comments. Especially since I told my project guy this should be trivial to do in C#, and now I'm wondering if I made the correct decision. I'm not looking good at this point. 1) In order to hide the app from the Taskbar, the main form's ShowInTaskbar property would be set to "false", easy right? That action, however, (using SPY++)removes the WS_APPLICATION style bit and prevents the application from receiving any registered Windows messages. 2) I initially call a C#-to-C++ wrapper function to give my ".Handle" to the unmanaged dll. This works for the first time, but when I set the main form's Visible property to false and minimize the form, "Handle" gets a new value. Is there some other "handle" I should be using? I work around this by "re-registering" with the unmanaged dll after minimizing but there have been a couple of occasions where a zero has been logged. Using FindWindow() in the unmanaged dll would be acceptable, is there a way to "register a unique window class"? The window titlebar includes message specific data so the title changes. 3) I have seen several instances where the main window was shown (Visible = true), but with no controls on it. Using SPY++, I see the main window listed with no child controls, and a "WindowsFormsParkingWindow" which contains all the children for this form. The data on the controls is correct, but it's as if they are just not on the right form. 4) I also intended for a Windows Service to start the application, which works, but the application does not survive a user logoff. We have C++/MFC applications which do a subclassing code trick to accomplish this but I've not found an equivalent for C# apps. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q164166/ 5) I have the main form's TopMost property set to true, and after 2 hrs. of messing around, I discovered the tooltips are showing behind the form. This is the case for XP as well as Win2k. One unrelated thing: 1) Once in a while my VS.NET search function starts reporting something like "no files found to search in". Strangely enough, when I press CTRL+SCROLL LOCK it starts working again. Not a big deal once you know the trick. I apologize if I've missed this information but I looked in the groups and didn't see any real answers to these questions. I would greatly appreciate any input as to whether some of this behavior falls in the category of "that's just the way it is", or I'm not doing things correctly, or bugs to be fixed, or need to look at workarounds. I'm using VS.NET 2003 and .NET Framework v1.1 and the target OS is Win2k. Needless to say, I've been frustrated to this point in creating what I "thought" to be a pretty simple app. My fear (from a schedule standpoint) is that I have to start over in C++.

    - How to control the order in which individual child controls are rendered Hello All, I am creating an image browsing function within an application. As such, I created a Thumbpanel control (shown below) which displays a collection of thumbnails. Each thumbnail on that panel is also a custom control ( of a class called Thumbnail) placed at a calculated location on the Thumbpanel. It turns out to take 1+ seconds to construct and render each Thumbnail, so in turn it takes MANY seconds to render the whole panel. Therefore I need to force each Thumbnail to be rendered individually as they are constructed, so that the user will not be confused by the frozen screen awaiting the whole thing to render. I expected that the line: thumb.Refresh(); ... would force the thumb object (of type Thumbnail) to be rendered upon that call. But that didn't do the job. Can someone give my guidance on how to force rendering of the individual child controls (Thumbnails) in the order I specify?

    - No clue why ShowDialog crashes.... This one has me completely baffled. I am calling ShowDialog on this form, and it is about the simplest form in any application. The form presents a multi-line text box for viewing, copying to clipboard, or printing. Maybe someone has ideas??? WoComMenuHandler is a context menu handler on the main form. WoComMenuHandler instances frmTextView, sets properties, and then calls frmTextView.ShowDialog and crashes as follows. There is no form load or activated event coded. WoComMenuHandler does this setup prior to ShowDialog sets properties, as follows: Dim frm As New frmTextEditor frm.Editable = True frm.DialogTitle = "WO " & WoNum.ToString & " Comments" frm.TextContent = wo.Comments If frm.ShowDialog(Me) = DialogResult.OK Then ... The properties (used above) in frmTextView are pretty straight forward. It doesn't crash setting these properties. It crashes on ShowDialog. Public Property Editable() As Boolean Get Return Not tbText.ReadOnly End Get Set(ByVal Value As Boolean) tbText.ReadOnly = Not Value If tbText.ReadOnly Then Me.btnOK.Text = "OK" Me.btnCancel.Visible = False Else Me.btnOK.Text = "SAVE" Me.btnCancel.Visible = True End If End Set End Property Public Property DialogTitle() As String Get Return Me.Text End Get Set(ByVal Value As String) Me.Text = Value End Set End Property Public Property TextContent() As String ' tbText is a multiline text box.

    - What direction to select? (Since this ng was flooded I repost this Q.) I declared a Form in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003. On the form there are buttons and progression bars and three PictureBox in row, each showing a picture, later a movie. The three PictureBox should always occupy the available room when the form is resized (as much as reasonable) and if one of them is more interesting, I want to be able to size it larger covering the others. (A button press will size all of them back to the regular arrangement.) That is what I would like to do. (I could not find any examples yet.) Should I program windows instead of PictureBoxes or I should be able to use PictureBox? Would it be possible to display the short movies (20-40sec long each) in the PictureBox using a thread for each? Thank you for any guidance.

    - problems with multithreading, datasets and datagrids I have a method that fills a dataset. Iâ??m calling this method asynchronously using BeginInvoke. I put the dataset in an EventArgs derived class object and pass that to another method. This second method switches back to the UI thread and uses the data in the dataset to populate text boxes and datagrids in the main form. This always works fine the first time, and always freezes the app the second time. One of the datagrids Iâ??m populating this way is visible and it always gets a second scroll bar along the bottom the second time, it doesnâ??t get filled and the app freezes. Iâ??m thinking dataset corruption but Iâ??m not sure. When I change my asynchronous method call to a regular method call, everything works fine. I learned the technique I use from Chris Sellsâ?? article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnforms/html/winforms01232003.asp I also own the book. Iâ??ve used this technique successfully in a scenario that does not involve dataset passing and datagrid loading. Any ideas? EventArgs derived class: public class VelocityArgs : EventArgs { internal BOOL Success; public DataSet Ds; internal VelocityArgs(){} internal VelocityArgs(BOOL success) { Success = success; } internal VelocityArgs(DataSet ds) { Ds = ds; } internal VelocityArgs(BOOL success, DataSet ds) { Success = success; Ds = ds; } } Delegates for the 2 methods: delegate void SnapDataDelegate(); delegate void PopTab_SnapDelegate(object sender, VelocityArgs v); The asynchronous call: private void btnRLSqlSnap_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { if (velocity.SQLDataMgr.LoadState == velocity.LOADSTATE.DB_DATA) { // Asynch delegate method SnapDataDelegate snapDataDelegate = new SnapDataDelegate(SnapData); snapDataDelegate.BeginInvoke(null, null); // calling SnapData asynchronously //SnapData(); // no problems this way (not asynchronous) } } The method that is called asynchronously: private void SnapData() { object sender = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread; if (velocity.SQLDataMgr.LoadState == velocity.LOADSTATE.DB_DATA) velocity.SQLDataMgr.GetSQLSnap.Run(velocity.SQLDataMgr.Connection); velocity.SQLDataMgr.GetSQLSnap.LoadSpidStateHash(); VelocityArgs v = new VelocityArgs(velocity.SQLDataMgr.GetSQLSnap.GetDataSet); PopTab_Snap(sender, v); } PopTab_Snap switches back to the UI thread and populates the UI with the datasetâ??s data: private void PopTab_Snap(object sender, VelocityArgs v) { // Make sure we're on the right thread if (this.InvokeRequired == false) { // skipping code that populates the textboxes â?¦ DGR3Sessions.ColumnHeadersVisible = true; if (v.Ds.Tables.Contains("Table2")) { DGR3Sessions.DataSource = v.Ds.Tables["Table2"]; // freezes here SizeCol(DGR3Sessions, "Table2", dotSpace); } â?¦ } else // Transfer control to correct thread { PopTab_SnapDelegate popTab_Snap = new PopTab_SnapDelegate(PopTab_Snap); Invoke(popTab_Snap, new object[] { sender, v}); } } Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88067

The workaround of adding (show) a removing (hide) pages to the tab control seems to now only be a nice dream that I once had ???? This still works fine in Beta 2 when the FORM that the tab control is on, is visible. However, if the form is hidden I cannot use this code anymore !!! I don't wan't to make a hidden form visible and then start manipulating the tab pages. Anyone know a new workaround Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88066

I've searched google, and the only hits are poor sods that want to convert a Timestamp to a Datetime. I want it to show as hex. When I've got a column in a DataGrid that's a Timestamp, it shows as "Byte[] Array" in the DataGrid. What do I have to do to get this column to show as a hex value like it does when I run a query in QA? I'm not finding anything I can hook to do this. Anyone?

    - Cannot access a disposed object named "DropDownHolder" I have an application which uses the .Net PropertyGrid control. I haven't encountered any special issues when running the application from the VS IDE. However, users of the application hit several times (but seldom) the following exception: Message(s): Cannot access a disposed object named "DropDownHolder". Object name: "DropDownHolder". Some more details: The PropertyGrid is filled via a PropertyBag object (see http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/bending_property.asp) and the application uses a DropDown converter to feed items with DropDown lists of strings to the PropertyBag. These exceptions happened after the main form of the application, which contains the PropertyGrid control, was hidden for some time and then was shown again and a dropdown item was clicked. I failed to reproduce this under the IDE. I basically understand what this exception means. However, I do not understand what can be the reason for this exception. The Call Stack of the exception follows below. Any explanation why this happens and a suggestion for a workaround are most welcome. -- Benzi System.ObjectDisposedException: Cannot access a disposed object named "DropDownHolder".

    - 'Reference error' on second attempt to inherit form from DLL Using C#.NET.2003 I'm running into a problem attempting to put wrapper classes around managed Forms, and after six hours it's getting hard to see whether it's a bug, bad documentation, or my failure to understand the documentation. Any advice -- or comments that can narrow my choices -- will be appreciated. I'm writing a multi-form application whose form inheritance structure I've already tried to lay out four or five times. Since re-doing it is a real pain in the asterisk, I'd like to be able to subclass the .NET managed Forms class several deep to cut down on the time this takes to do. Unfortunately, with my Latest'n'Greatest(tm) approach I keep running into the following error message: Reference error: Unable to reference 'MyDLL' to the current application. Check that a different version of 'MyDLL' is not already referenced. Here's what I've tried to do: In the MyDLL project I have: class MyBaseForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form class MyDbAccessForm: MyDLL.MyBaseForm On this form I added a DataSet, an OleDbConnection, and several DataAdapters. Both of these are simple "wrapper" classes whose only purpose is to leave a place for me to add changes later on as required. I then tried creating a form frmMyMainForm in the MyApp project by right-clicking on the project in Solutions Explorer and selecting the Add->Inherited_Form option. When asked which reference I wanted to add, I selected 'MyBaseForm' in 'MyDLL'. So far, so good. The MyApp project now has a Reference entry pointing it at MyDLL. Then I attempt to add a second form -- frmMyDbBrowse -- to the MyApp project using the same approach. Add->Inherited_Form, select the 'MyDbAccessForm' in 'MyDLL' as its ancestor, and... BOOM! A 'Reference error' message. There seem to be very few reports of this particular error message, and since I'm not attempting to inherit from an EXE file <grin> those I've found don't appear to apply here. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening? I'm fairly new to .NET, so there's lots of room for a Probable User error; if so, can anyone suggest where I might be stumbling?

    - Which way to go? I declared a Form in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003. On the form there are buttons and progression bars and three PictureBox in row, each showing a picture, later a movie. The three PictureBox should always occupy the available room when the form is resized (as much as reasonable) and if one of them is more interesting, I want to be able to size it larger covering the others. (A button press will size all of them back to the regular arrangement.) That is what I would like to do. (I could not find any examples yet.) Should I program windows instead of PictureBoxes or I should be able to use PictureBox? Would it be possible to display the short movies (20-40sec long each) in the PictureBox using a thread for each? Thank you for any guidance.

    - Again Winform Datagrid: Individual row height and Vertical Scrollbar Hi, We are using Windows.Forms.DataGrid control in our application. Let me explain what i have done so far so it will easy to understand the problem: We have used DataGridIconColumnStyle for one icon column and second is DataGridTextBoxColumn for some other purpose In second column i am showing Comboboxes when user clicks on it directly. Now when user clicks on first column's icon, we are showing a big panel in second column in the same row where we had Combobox previously. On click on first column's icon image, big panel with some info shows in second column's place. And at that time we are changing row height and it changes the row height for that perticular row. Up to this, it works fine. Now when second column shows panel in one cell with height changed, a vertical scroll bar appears. But when i click on scrollbar to scroll downside, it scrolls whole first column which has double height than total height of all other rows with default height. So problem is: 1. When i scroll down, it is not scrolling as per total height but it scrolls up the whole first row in one stroke wich has very big height. 2. When it scrolls up the first row with big height value, it is not scrolling up whole panel that i have put in the second column. It scrolls up by just default row size. So, what i want to do is: 1. Smooth scrolling of the vertical scroll bar 2. And with scrolling of datagrid rows, the panel should scroll also. Before you write any comment, please have a look at the following lines, 1. I have searched all the relavant messages in the private and public newsgroups but could not find the solution. 2. In most of the posts they have individual row height change problem which we have done, so we have a problem of scrolling after changed height. 3. I have also searched many forums online and using google also. But i could not find any solution so please do not point me out that look at similar posts that has been posted previously. I hope, i will get reasonable answer from you all experts as well as MSFT engineers. I hope to see some good pointers, idea, or trick to solve my problems. You are most welcome for further clarification if you feel so. Thanks in Advance. Regards, Mahesh Devjibhai Dhola Tag: Question about Infragistics Grid and combo box Tag: 88023

    - DataGrid VScrollBar Bug? I have a DataGrid that ends up with a VScrollBar due to the number of rows, and the behavior I want is for the bottom-most row of the DataGrid to be shown, i.e., I want the VScrollBar all the way to the bottom (maximum). I grab and set the VScrollBar using the following: if ( historyDataGrid.Controls[1] is VScrollBar ) { VScrollBar vsb = (VScrollBar)historyDataGrid.Controls[1]; vsb.Value = vsb.Maximum; } This ALMOST works. The VScrollBar moves to the bottom, but the DataGrid is scrolled only to about 99.5% of maximum. A mouse click to the sliderbar or the small-increment button causes the DataGrid to be scrolled all the way to the bottom.

I am using an Infragistics grid and combo box. I have a table of
information that I would like to edit that has a foreign key in it. I
would like to show the user friendly description in the grid, then when
the user clicks on the grid, the the value can be changed through the
combo box. This combo is not one of the in grid combos, it is a
seperate one on the form. One of my requirements for these data entry
forms is that in-grid editing of data is not allowed. What is the
easiest way of doing this. Most of the examples that I have seen are
geared toward the in-grid combo box, not a seperate one elsewhere on
the form.

Jeremy,
I'd suggest asking this question in one of the Infragistics support
groups. Infragistics.dotnet.wingrid on news.infragistics.com would be your
best location for this question.
This seems to just require changing the combobox value as appropriate
when a row is selected and then when the combobox value changes writing its'
value back to the appropriate Cell's Value in the selected row in the grid.
You can show a description instead of a value by using a ValueList for the
