    - Analyze https page activity Hello group I have a winforms client application. The customer now wants to have access to information that is on a web page via https. We have all the necessary account and password, but the problem is when we need to confirm some data, the user have to leave his application go to the web site enter the password and read the result and then confirm the information. What I want to do is all the manual steps of getting to the web site and get the information at run time from the main application. The main application is a c# winform, I have some classes to get the response from a http but the page have a button and I don't know how to analyze what is happening. Is there a way to analyze what is doing when the user click the bottom from the web page, and of couse the way to simulate that action from the main application. It's obvious that I don't have any experience with http protocol, and sorry for my English to. Thanks for your help MajorTom PD: I cross posting to 2 different group because I not sure where it's have to go. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89152

    - print button on printpreview dialog I just added a print and printpreview capability to my app. It's printing a nasty datagrid with hidden columns that may be filtered and sorted. Everything seems to work, but I'm having trouble with printing from the printpreview form. The preview looks right, I get the right number of pages, and the lines look right, but there is no text. Is there some trick to make this work? If not, how do I disable the print button from the stock printpreviewdialog. I can hear the users complaining about this already. Thanks, Mick.

    - winforms weirdness with context menu mouse up I'm seeing some weird business going on and I'm wondering if there's an easy workaround or if I have to go into hack mode. In non-winforms apps you must have a right mouse down followed by a right mouse up in order to get a context menu. One specific example is the tool bar which brings up the standard (Restore,Move,Size,Maximize,Close) context menu. However, it seems in winforms you only need a mouse up. Now in the control I'm creating I capture the mouse on mousedown and do seperate actions on mouse move depending on whether the right or left mouse buttons are depressed. But when I've pressed the right button, capturing the mouse, and then released over the toolbar(in order to release control) I get the context menu popping up. Oddly enough, after dismiss the context menu the mouseup event for my control fires. Obviously this is not the behavior I want. Seems weird the winforms team decided to raise context on mouseup alone. But fine. Do I have any options besides installing a message filter? Thanks in Advance, Robert Conde Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89144

    - ShowDialog, SEHException and Timer control I know the SEHException when calling ShowDialog is quite a common problem, generally associated with EnableVisualStyles, but I've just been having a problem with it, and I'd already added the DoEvents call before Application.Run, so it wasn't that. I'm working on an application which uses a timer to poll a database at regular intervals. There is also an override button to force an immediate check. When a dialog box was shown from the Timer control's Tick event, I got the SEHException, but when it was shown from the manual override, I didn't. Strange, thought I. As an experiment, I replaced the System.Windows.Forms.Timer control with a System.Timers.Timer object, and the problem went away. I post this in the hope that it might help others in the future.

    - VB.NET problems displaying custom dialog box I added a form to my project to use as a dialog box. The form is simple, 2 text boxes, 1 checkbox, 3 labels and 2 buttons. It will eventually allow a user to reset a password, but I haven't added the functionality yet. I have the dialog created when the user selects Tools - Reset Password from my main menu control. When Reset Password is clicked I execute: Dim frmResetPassword As New ResetPassword frmResetPassword.ShowDialog() Where ResetPassword is the name of the new form. When launched it's generating an error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. The error is generated from an unknown module. Now here is where it gets weird. If I add a button to the form and run it again I don't get an error. I don't put code behind the button or change anything else (I still execute from the menu item), I just add it to the form. I have no idea what is going on and would be most appreciative to anyone who can point me to a solution. Thanks. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89119

    - How to get rid of scrollbars in datagrid? I have windows form with datagrid control. I don't want the datagrid control to display vertical and horizontal scrollbars. I wonder whether there is a way to get rid of scrollbars without deriving my own class from System::Windows::Forms::DataGrid? The problem is that unless I derive my own class from DataGrid I don't have access to scroll bar objects. The HorizScrollBar and VertScrollBar properties of VertScrollBar are protected! Can anyone recommend alternative way to get rid of scrollbars? Thanks Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89118

    - PropertyChangedEvent I read this article called "Windows Forms Data Binding and Objects" by Rockford Lhotka wich in an MSDN article. It makes a custom class that can be bound to. If a value in the class changes from code or an other control it needs to be updated in all bound controls. ThatÂ´s where the PropertyChanged event comes in. The article says that de bindingmanager listens for those events. Now, the sample code (I didnÂ´t run it) is in VB.Net. I would like to do the same thing in C#. And guess what, it doesnÂ´t work. I donÂ´t know what i am doing wrong and canÂ´t find any samples. Anyone there that can give me a hint? Much appreciated, thanks. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89112

    - ListBox component and underlying Items objects Hello, I've run into a brick wall in working with a standard ListBox. I'm loading lightweight objects into a ListBox component - call them Elements. The Element class has an ElementName property and an overridden ToString() method that displays the ElementName. When I load Elements into my list box Items collection, the ElementName displays and all is well. My problem occurs when I change an ElementName property programatically. The underlying Element does indeed change, but I can't get the text displayed the list box to reflect it! I can delete and re-add the Element and the change will show up, but neither ListBox.Update() nor ListBox.Refresh() change it. I've considered a custom draw method (which I may have to implement anyway). But is there another way of changing the text I'm overlooking? I'm not using data binding - can a ListBox programatically bind to its own Items collection? Any help appreciated. Thanks much Jim Stanley Media Services, Inc. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89108

    - Is "colspan" in ListView possible? I am working with MS Visual studio C#.net, .net framework 1.1. Do you have an idea, how can I use the ListView (details display mode), that it does similarly as an html table do? Or there is a better container which would fit my needs? What I need in the ListView is: 1. Above some subitems, a common header should appear (above the actual column headers). 2. In some rows I don't have all details (texts for all subitems), but instead I have a commentary, common for some subitems. So, I would need a kind of "colspan" in a table. I would be grateful for any help/ Jola ---------------------------------------------------- I want to obtain that (example): <html> <table border=1> <tr> <th colspan='2'> </th> <th colspan='3'> Block 1 </th> <th> </th> <th colspan='3'> Block 2 </th> </tr> <tr> <th> Main item </th> <th> </th> <th> Subitem 1 </th> <th> Subitem 2 </th> <th> Subitem 3 </th> <th> </th> <th> Subitem 11 </th> <th> Subitem 22 </th> <th> Subitem 33 </th> </tr> <tr> <td> First entry </td> <td> </td> <td> 1284 </td> <td> 4352 </td> <td> 3214 </td> <td> </td> <td> 3421 </td> <td> 2412 </td> <td> 3421 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Second entry </td> <td> </td> <td colspan='3'> here comes the commentary </td> <td> </td> <td> 4536 </td> <td> 9867 </td> <td> 3910 </td> </tr> <tr> <td> Third entry </td> <td> </td> <td> 3424 </td> <td> 3334 </td> <td> 3214 </td> <td> </td> <td colspan='3'> here comes the commentary </td> </tr> </table> </html> Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89104

    - How? Using a custom TypeConverter in custom grid column style. I have bound a grid column to an enumeration data type. I derive from DataGridTextBoxColumn and override GetColumnValueAtRow and call a function I wrote to convert the enumeration value to a descriptive text for display in the grid cell. This works well. Even though the grid is not editable, and the column is readonly, when one clicks on the cell I get a type conversion exception. Looking at the stack I see Edit calls GetText which uses an "EnumConverter" to convert the descriptive text to an int32, which ultimately tries to parse the descriptive as an int32, and of course fails. I see that DataGridTextBoxColumn has a PRIVATE type converter member. I am seeking any pointers to examples, or samples, or explanations of how to intercede the conversion of the descriptive back to an enumerated value for my custom column type. I think I need to implement a type converter, but I don't see how to tie it in. Or even just to know "it can't be done" would be helpful. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89091

    - WinForms and AppDomains I have an application where I'd like to be able to run multiple instances of a Windows forms application. Due to a heavy hit in our application startup code it would be beneficial to be able to have a single process with multiple instances of the form. Additionally, it would be useful to be able to partition off each instance in it's own application domain. The current plan is for a module to handle starting a new thread which will fire up a new app domain and then load the form. This module will also handle firing up any new instances by creating a new thread and application domain. My concern is any issues surrounding the UI thread. I'm aware that only the thread that calls Application.Run should access any of the UI components. Typically you would only have one per process. In my situation I'll end up with multiple UI threads. However, each application domain will only have a single UI thread and only this thread will access any UI components. Is the application domain enough of a boundary for the UI threads or am I setting myself up for threading issues? Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89082

    - Change value in bound ctrl when value of another bound ctrl change I have been developing WinForms apps in .NET for several years and have never discovered a good solution to this newbish problem. I frequently encounter a situation where I want to change the value of a control when the user changes the value of some other control and both controls are bound to the same row in a DataTable. For example, say I have a combobox of statuses and a textbox for comments but comments are not applicable for certain statuses. When the user selects one of these statuses I want to set the text of the textbox to an empty string. So I add a handler to the combobox's SelectedValueChanged event and set the TextBox's Text property to an empty string. Doing this seems to cause unpredictable behavior. Sometimes I get an empty textbox but the combobox is changed back to its original value and other times the textbox is not cleared. I assume one change gets pushed to the dataset and triggers a refresh of the controls from the dataset but I'm not really sure. I have worked around this by clearing the textbox when the combobox loses focus but users are never happy with this solution. Having encountered this problem again I thought I would see if anyone can tell me the "right" way to do this. Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89071

    - Win2k3 SP1 affects IEExec ?? Has anyone encountered issues running NTD apps on 2003 SP1? I have an application that runs fine when run from IE on 2003 SP0. It also runs fine when run from the file system (i.e., double-click the exe) on 2003 SP1. For some reason, when we run the same app from IE on 2003 SP1 machines, we're getting System.TypeInitialization exceptions in IEExec.exe . When examined closer by building the app with debug symbols on the server, it appears that (at least in this case) the TypeInitializationException is being caused by an exception as a Web Proxy Class (for a web service) is being initialized. The Message is "The type initializer for "System.Xml.Serialization.Compiler" threw an exception.

    - why aren't changes in datasets recognized for bound controls? Hi, I've got a simple VB/Access app that binds text controls to various fields in a database table. Everything works fine, EXCEPT that when I call the Update method on the data adapter, nothing updates, because it thinks nothing has changed! If I make changes to the fields thru the bound edit boxes, and then check the "HasChanges" method on the dataset, it runs FALSE - even though the changes ARE reflected in the dataset's data! How do I fix this??? The Update calls do nothing even if I edit all the fields because the dataset won't recognized that anything has changed. The updates and everything work fine if I manually set new values into the fields; the update works and HasChanges returns true. ex.:dataset.tables(0).rows(0)("my field") = foo thanks!

    - How to track changes in a datagrid I'm developing a desktop app that displays several screens of of data in a two column fashion, the left column has the tiles and the right column has the input controls (textboxes, dropdowns, etc) for input. Typically the app is used to display preexisting data and the user would edit certain things. The data is saved on a network drive and can be edited by many users who have access to the drive (no concurrenct editing) so it needs to be able to track who changed what when. If a value is changed 10 times by 10 different user, it should be able to keep the history. I'm thinking maybe a DataGrid control is the best choice for displaying and accepting user input but not sure how it captures the change info. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

    - variable height TreeNodes in TreeView Is it possible to create a TreeView with variable height TreeNodes? For example, I may want to have text in a given tree node have hard return characters that wrap that node's text to next line? There is the TreeView.ItemHeight property but that only allows setting a height for all TreeNodes in the TreeView's underlying tree model (which is limited to TreeNode types of trees).

    - Cursor "stuck" In Databound Control/Caching? I am having a strange issue and cannot solve it. Basically, I have a form that edits information in a database. This form has many different controls that are bound to a business object. When I first load the form to edit the info everything works properly. The process of loading the object also loads the object into cache (Isolated storage using Enterprise Library 2.0 caching application block). If I load the form again and attempt to edit a field (say notes a textbox) my cursor gets "stuck" in the text box and I cannot click on any other control in the form. However I can close the form with the X in the upper right corner and the keys still function properly (Enter saves the object and Esc closes the form). I have looked the stack trace but it is giving me nothing. I have no idea where to begin. Has anyone seen something similar or have any ideas what it might be? Any ideas how I can go about getting some info to solve the problem? Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89013

    - Form Display Hello, I have designed a form in vb.net. I have placed a tab control with 3 tab pages on the form. This tab control holds many controls in each tab page. This form is MDIChild form. I have not written much code on the form. Whenever I run the project, form is dipslayed as textboxes first then Data grid followed by another tab on the form and so on. Form does not display all the controls at once as complete form. What I should do in order to avoid this? Early response is awaited.. -RbanBph Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89010

    - key events doesn't work Hi. I got some problem with the key events, they doesn't rise. first I made a new win project in C#, and I set this.KeyPreview = true; also this.KeyUp += new System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventHandler(this.fClient_KeyUp); and then I test run the app, and the keyup event did evoke. then I added a brower control into the form private AxSHDocVw.AxWebBrowser mviewer; and test run the app again, but this time the keyup didn't evoke, I assume the the browser control took the key events, how do I let the parent form evoke the key events again? and the browser control seems don't have any key event handler, am i right? any help would be greatful. regards Steve p Tag: Sorting in Combo Box Tag: 89008

After setting Sorted porperty of combo box to true, data in the combo does
not appear.
I have combo bound to Datatable.
What is the reason for that?

Are you seeing an ArgumentException? The help indicates that this exception
should be thrown when "an attempt was made to sort a ComboBox that is
attached to a data source."

Try creating a DataView, using the DataTable, and set the sort order using
the DataView objects Sort property. Then assign the DataView object to the
DataSource property of the ComboBox.

Make sure that the Sorted property of the ComboBox is set back to "false".
