    - Default: Everyone and not Just Me Hi, When installing an application with an msi-package, you have to choose on a sudden moment to install it only for the curent user (Just Me) or Everyone. The radio-button is default set on the Just Me option, but I'm looking for a way to set it on the Everyone by default. Anybody knows how to do this? Thanks! Pieter Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65524

    - Winform with background image and transparent usercontrols Hi, I have a form which has a background image. My problem is that when I load a user control its background hides my image. I used SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor, true); and BackColor = Color.Transparent; on each of my usercontrols and it works great, even the buttons do draw the background image on their back ! I have two problems : 1. ListView, TreeView and TabControl do not support this, they stay gray and white ! 2. When I maximize/minimize/resize my form it takes ages to refresh/redraw the form ! It is simply very very slow !!! Any ideas ? Thanks, Arkam Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65523

    - Data loss in rebind Hi, I have a DataGrid which I databind as this: BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView.AllowNew = false; BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView.AllowDelete = false; MarketGrid.DataSource = BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView; In the DataGrid, two columns is marked as readonly (In the definition of the DataGridTextBoxColumn). If I in the WinForms-GUI, click in one of these columns before I re-bind again, I will get an error in the re-bind code. The re-binding of the DataGrid is done as the code above, that is I call the same code snippet again, but I reset the DataSet first: BaseDataSetForUse = BaseDataSetOriginal.Copy(); BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView.AllowNew = false; BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView.AllowDelete = false; MarketGrid.DataSource = BaseDataSetForUse.Tables["Market"].DefaultView; When I set the DataSource, then I get the following error message: "An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll Additional information: Column 'IsExpired' does not belong to table Market." I have debugged the code and the column is still in the DataTable. If I doesn't click in one of the readonly columns, I do not get an error message. Could anyone please help me? -- Fredrik Arningsmark Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65519

    - Scrollbar visual problem in a TreeView Using VS 2003 ( C++ ), I've created a .NET Forms application. Added a TreeView docked to left, a Separator and a ListView docked to Fill ( not sure if relevant ). I've also enabled visual style using Application::EnableVisualStyles. The problem is that everything looks XP-ish ( I can see differences when I put the Name.exe.manifest to the same directory as the Name.exe ) except the TreeView's bottom scrollbar looks Win2k-ish ( even though no TreeViewNode exceeds the visible area of the TreeView ). When I expand the nodes until they go out of the TreeView visible area, the arrows from the scrollbar remain the same, while the center part of the scrollbar becomes XP blue-ish. If I collapse, the scrollbar dissapears ( as it should ). If I re-expand, the whole scrollbar looks as it should ( XP-ish ) Any ideas ? Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65515

    - VB Equivalent to Access Form BeforeUpdate Event? Hi, We have two fields in just about every table for UpdatedBy and UpdatedOn which we want to update if there are any changes to fields on the form. In Access we typically use the Form_BeforeUpdate event to accomplish this. How should we do this in vb.net? I've explored using the RowChangeEvent to assign values to the dataset, but of course this triggers another RowChange event! Do I need to have events for each control on the form? A little help needed! Thanks. Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65501

    - Multiline DataGrid I'm trying to upgrade the DataGrid so that I can display multiple lines of text in one row. My method is to create a new class derived from DataGridTextBoxColumn. As suggested in http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/20/100505.aspx I have overridden the 2 GetHeight methods. However, I can't override PaintText because it is not virtual or override. As a result, when editting the text it works great. When viewing, the rows are the correct height but the text is only one line Is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to rewrite the DataGridTextBoxColumn class myself?

    - System.Drawing and GDI+ Question - Please help I have a winforms control that draws a rectangle for a boarder and positions some graphical elements around the control to create the boarder effect I desired. In the control I have overriden the onpaint event and added the code to draw my rectangle and position my graphic items: Protected Overrides Sub OnPaint(ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs) e.Graphics.Clear(Color.FromArgb(255, 255, 255)) MyBase.OnPaint(e) Dim g As Graphics = pb1.CreateGraphics pb1.CreateGraphics.Clear(Color.FromArgb(255, 255, 255)) Dim myPen As System.Drawing.Pen = New System.Drawing.Pen(Color.FromArgb(187, 191, 115)) g.DrawRectangle(myPen, New Rectangle(0, 0, pb1.Width - 1, pb1.Height - 1)) pb1.Width = (Me.Width - 34) pb1.Height = (Me.Height - 29) tr.Left = (Me.Width - 32) br.Left = (Me.Width - 32) br.Top = (Me.Height - 24) bl.Top = (Me.Height - 24) End Sub Also I have added this line to the Public sub new call of the control: SetStyle(ControlStyles.ResizeRedraw, True) As you can see the rectangle is being drawn on a panel control called "pb1". When I drag this control onto a Windows form in Visual Studio the rectangle is drawn and behaves as it should when resized etc. However if I switch to antother tab and switch back the rectangle disapears, this is also the case when the solution is compiled the form initializes with no rectangle.

    - Spacing between Textbox controls I'd like to have several Textbox controls within a panel. Each Textbox will have its .Dock property set to Top. This enables all of the Textbox controls to resize as the panel resizes, which is the effect I'd like. However, since each Textbox has its .Dock property set to Top, the Textbox controls have no space between them. I'd like to have some space between the Textbox controls. How can this be easily achieved? Or should I be satisfied that the Textbox controls have a common top and bottom edge? Thanks! Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65482

    - Bug w/ button having focus while in textbox There seems to be a bug where if you're in a textbox, a button can still have focus and prevent you from using the "enter" key in the multi-line textbox. This happens when you have a button and a textbox in a child form, go to another child and return back to the initial child. Here's how to re-create the problem: 1. Create a child form with a button and a MULTILINE textbox. 2. In the MDI parent form, open two of those child forms (you could do it in the OnLoad event) 3. Run the program. Two child forms should show. Let's call the child that's on top "child 1" and the other "child 2" 4. "child 1" is currently on top. Now, click on "child 2" and click back on "child 1". 5. Click on the textbox on "child 1" and hit return ("ENTER"). You will NOT be able to go down to the next line. It seems that upon re-activating "child 1", the form gives the button the focus again, but does not "release" the focus even when you put the cursor in the textbox. So, even though you click on the text box & put the cursor there, hitting ENTER still makes the form fire the Click event on the button. I have not found anything like this in the KB. If you have any workaround or know the solution please let us know. Thanks! jgc Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65479

    - Resize to "Normal" from Maximized fails with ClientSize reset to {0,0)!? The problem: WinForms app with main form and one NotifyIcon (called sysTrayIcon in my code). Main form starts out minimized with ShowInTaskBar = False. Double clicking on the system tray icon displays the form. All looks/works well except.... If you: [1] start the app [2] double-click on the system tray icon to display the ("normal" sized) main form [3] maximize the main form [4] minimize the main form [5] double-click on the system tray icon to re-display the (still maximized) main form [6] click the "normal size" button (between minimize and close in the title bar) the main form now displays nothing more than the title bar, as if there were no client area at all. What the heck is that?! Looking at the messages going through the message pump it looks like the main form is being sized correctly the first time, but is then being resized down to 0,0 twice. Why is that happening??? Here's the custom bits to add to the default WinForms app: private void Form1_Load( object sender, System.EventArgs e ) { this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized ; this.ShowInTaskbar = false ; } private void sysTrayIcon_DoubleClick( object sender, System.EventArgs e ) { this.ShowInTaskbar = true ; this.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal ; } private void Form1_Deactivate( object sender, System.EventArgs e ) { if( this.WindowState == FormWindowState.Minimized ) { this.ShowInTaskbar = false ; } } This has me puzzled. I'm not much of a UI guy (as if you couldn't tell). The cause *is* related to my code (shown above) because the default WinForms app doesn't do this (already checked). Many thanks in advance for any help you can offer. -Jason Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65450

    - capture the mouse (to grab the window content) [not with SetCapture and not with hooks] Hi there, I write a small applicaiton in C# to mimic the SnapShot/32 application functionality. I use Win32GDI rountines to grab the images and this is the easy part. The difficult part is to mimic the SnapS way of letting user to select a window he/she wants to snap. It works like this: 1. the user does whatever he wants in the system 2. he/she presses some hotkey (RegisterHotKey) and the SnapS gets active (but does not show its window) 3. instead the mouse cursor is globally changed to a cross and globally captured until the first click 4. when the user clicks a window, its image is captured my problem is the number 3. I've tried to capture the mouse with SetCapture/.Capture = true but it does not work when the capturing window is not a foreground window.

The bmp files now appear in the solution explorer. My question is, do they get embedded in the assembly? When I use the code as System.Drawing.Bitmap b = (System.Drawing.Bitmap)Bitmap.FromFile("c:\\myimages\\1.bmp"); it loads the bitmap and works fine. There are 2 things, I do not want to hard code the path as somebody else might have the project somewhere else. Ideally I would want to load the image from the assembly, but when I do ResourceManager rm; rm = new ResourceManager("<MyAssemblyName>", Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()); System.Drawing.Bitmap bt; bt = (System.Drawing.Bitmap)rm.GetObject("1.bmp"); it does not load the bitmap.

    - DataGrid flushing changes to DataSet. Hi all, I´ve seen around there, that many people have problems forcing the datagrid control to flush the changes to the DataSet. To do so, you only have to invoke the CurrencyManager.EndCurrentEdit() method. At least this worked for me. Tag: Refreshing .config Tag: 65350

    - keypress handling I need to implement keypress handler that works anywhere on a form (actually so long as I am on one of several tab pages on my form which is basically a tab control with 4 pages. Here is the problem - my TabControl.Keypress handler intercepts the keypress only of one of the grids on that same tab does not have focus. Essentially, once I select a row on a grid, my handler no longer receives keypresses, as they are now aparently directed to the selected grid. The handler is invoked if I am editing one of the edit controls. How can I intercept ALL keypresses within the form/tab page? Do I have to resort to the windows message handler?

I'm overwriting appSettings in the .config using the XMLDocument object and then saving through. While this works fine the changes aren't visible ti my application until it restarts.

Is there any way that I can refresh the config file while the application is running?

Cheers,

Check out following article:
...
For other application types, such as Windows Forms or console applications,
there is a definite downside. Any change to our configuration settings
requires that the application be stopped and restarted. We can overcome this
by adding a bit of extra functionality to our custom section handler. It is
possible to create a custom section handler that detects when the config
file is changed. If this happens, we can refresh our settings values by
re-reading the custom section from the file.

Thank you very much for the reply. After much hunting prior to posting I had found nothing. About three minutes after posting I found that very article

Thanks again
