    - Invisible toolbar buttons I have added a toolbar to my WinForms app. The toolbar has 3 buttons and a separator. I have associated an imagelist with the toolbar and setup the images and buttons appropriately. At design-time I can see the bitmaps on the buttons, but when I run the application the buttons are blank. After googling around a bit I saw that some people got around this by making sure that this.toolBar.Buttons.AddRange (in InitializeComponent()) came at the very bottom of the toolbar section. I made this change but it did not affect the results. Can anyone think of anything else that might be going wrong here? Thanks, Tom Tag: docking windows Tag: 71613

    - Databinding problem I thought I had this figured out, but apparently I did not. I have a list of objects, lets just use Person as an example. The list implements IBindingList. One of the properties of the object is Address, which is an Address object. Binding the list of Person objects to a datagrid produces the anticipated results, each of them shows as a row in the grid. You can even click the 'plus' and navigate to the Address object. Great. What I want to do though is to show JUST the addresses in the list. I don't want to see the individual information at all, just the addresses corresponding to the individuals. What I tried was: binding = new Binding("Datasource", personList, "Address") Grid.Databindings.Add(binding) Unfortunately, what this does is show the ONE address of the current Person. Which is great if there is only one Person in the list, but if there are more than one it only shows a single address. So how do I do what I want? Tag: docking windows Tag: 71604

    - what's the best way to detect click in child controls? If I have ControlX that contains ControlY, and the user clicks on ControlY, I want to catch that in ControlX. I know I could use the OnControlAdded override to add a click event handler to every control added to ControlX, but that only works one level deep unless I recurse through all the children and also handle every child's ControlAdded event, which is kind of ugly. Is there a better way? TIA, Bob Tag: docking windows Tag: 71577

    - Win form pops up with no reason Hi, I am using C#. I have a form (form1) with multiple controls on it. There is a button and when it is clicked it opens a different form (form2). When form2 is closed a method of form1 is run and form1 becomes active. On form1 there are multiple text fields. The problem is that when the form1 becomes active (after form2 was closed) and the focus is in a textbox and I hit the enter key, the second form (form2) pops up without any reason. For the text box I handle the keypress event but when this happens the event is not captured. I do not understand why form2 shows up without any reason. This happens only after form2 was opened and closed. If the form2 was not opened and I hit enter in the textboxes everything is working fine. Thank you. Tag: docking windows Tag: 71575

    - Suppressing paint event on forms Hello I need a way to disable form re-painting until I am done enabling and disabling all controls on the form. The problem I am having is that we have multiple objects (a security component and the specific business UI object) that will indepently enable and disable controls based on a user's role and the business rules of an object (for example, the user may have the rights to enter interview results, but if the applicant hasn't yet been invited, the Interview Results control will be disabled). We are using an Edit button on all our forms, so when that button is pressed, all the controls flicker on and off as the different objects run through their routines. What we want to do then is suspend form painting at the start of the various evaluations, let all the objects enable and disable the various controls, and at the end allow the form to paint the final state of all the controls. We looked into SuspendLayout, but it doesn't seem to cover our problem, plus it is too granular, applying only to the control it is called on. We would like to tell the form to suspend all re-drawing until we give the signal Any help would be appreciated Thanks -Tod Tag: docking windows Tag: 71573

    - Setting focus in OnLoad not working Hello I have a few forms where I want to set the focus to a specific control thats not the first one in the taborder. Ive tried to do that in OnLoad but that doesnt work, the focus reverts to the first control. In one form where I just want the focus to change from a tabcontrols tabs to the first real control I managed to get it to work by setting the focus in the VisibleChanged event. But in another one that I reuse for questions to the user (so the control will be shown and hidden many times) that doesnt work either. In what event should I be doing this? I cant change the taborder, it just wont work with the controls (you cant set a tabcontrol to be selected after its pages). Thanks in advance, Dan Tag: docking windows Tag: 71559

    - DataGrid Sorting returns wrong values from dataTable Hello, I have a datagrid in my C# application. The Grid has 4 columns, one is a Boolcoluumn, other 3 are string columns. Out of which bool column is editable & the last column is editable too. Using DataGridColumnStyle i've allowed Sorting to true for the whole Datatable. At a time the user is allowed to Enable only one bool column for the whole Grid. I've handled this using CurrentCellChanged event for that column by disabling all the row's bool value & enabling the selected one.Whenever the user clicks the column header to enable sorting either Ascending or Descending, it sorts accordingly based upon the clicked column header. The real problem is after sorting, when the user selects a particular bool column, in the CurrentCellChanged Event it gives the correct Row Number according to the selection, but using the Rownumber if i enable that selected row, it selects a different one rather than the currently selected row. The selected row happens to be the one which i've constructed in the begining. After sorting it hasn't updated the DataTable. I tried calling AcceptChanges() to the DataTable before selecting doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure is this a bug or a limitation with respect to DataGrid using DataTable & Dataset. Here's my sample code. private void CreateDataGrid() { myDataSet = new DataSet("myDataSet"); myDataTable = new DataTable("myDataTable"); DataColumn Parameter_cEnable,Parameter_cDefaultName,Parameter_cParameterInst,Parameter_ cParameterAssign; Parameter_cEnable = new DataColumn("Select", typeof(bool)); Parameter_cDefaultName = new DataColumn("DefaultName",typeof(string)); Parameter_cParameterInst = new DataColumn("Parameter",typeof(string)); Parameter_cParameterAssign = new DataColumn("AssignedName",typeof(string)); myDataTable.Columns.Add(Parameter_cEnable); myDataTable.Columns.Add(Parameter_cDefaultName); myDataTable.Columns.Add(Parameter_cParameterInst); myDataTable.Columns.Add(Parameter_cParameterAssign); myDataSet.Tables.Add(myDataTable); DataGridTableStyle myDataGridTableStyle = new DataGridTableStyle(); myDataGridTableStyle.MappingName = "myDataTable"; myDataGridTableStyle.RowHeadersVisible = false; myDataGridTableStyle.ColumnHeadersVisible = false; myDataGridTableStyle.AllowSorting = true; myDataGrid.SetDataBinding(myDataSet,"myDataTable"); } PPLCols.DG_Selection is the bool column private void __ParmVar_DT_CurrentCellChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { DataGrid dgLocal = (DataGrid)sender; if (dgLocal.CurrentCell.ColumnNumber == (int)PPLCols.DG_Selection) { foreach(DataRow myRow in this.__ParmVar_DataTable.Rows) { myRow[(int)PPLCols.DG_Selection] = false; } myDataTable.Rows[dgLocal.CurrentRowIndex][(int)PPLCols.DG_Selection] = true; __CurrentRowIndex = dgLocal.CurrentRowIndex; } } Any help will be appreciated.

    - DataGrid - Tab skips my custom column If you take the combobox column style from somewhere like the datagrid faq at syncfusion.com and replace the combobox with a button or another textbox and then fix up the code to compile and run, there will be a problem. When tabbing into the column in question, the focus will enter the column on the tab key press, and move on to the following column on the tab key up. This is obviously not what is desired. The reason I ask is that I wrote my own databound combobox control (because the Winforms one stinks - can't turn off the border,...), but when I use it in the grid like is done with the combobox example in the syncfusion datagrid faq, I get the behavior described above. Further investigation shows that I get that behavior with just about any control (button, textbox) except the raw combobox. Any ideas? Tag: docking windows Tag: 71519

I am actively overcoming my fears and prejudices toward DataBindinding, and have come across another issue. My setup is like this: 3 textboxes bound to a table in the dataset (tbl1). A listbox that shows all records in the table. 3 more textboxes bound to tbl2 in the same dataset, the child table of tbl1. I have 2 currency managers, one for the Parent, and one for the Child tables. The AddNew button for the child calls cmChild.AddNew I need to havdle the case where a user then clicks another record in the listbox. I get an error thrown about tbl2 fields not allowing nulls. This occurs before any events on the CurrencyManager, and After my Listbox's Click event. How would I handle this (what event), and do I just call 'CancelCurrentEdit'? Thanks!

How can I use the property from the ActiveX control? Lance Tag: docking windows Tag: 71471

    - Populating ListBox with Attributes from XML Hello I have attribute-based XML that I have put into a DataSet. Ultimately, I want to dynamically put items in the list box where DataMember equals an attribute in the XML For example <Data><Classmates><Classmate Name="Sam" ID="2" /><Classmate Name="Sue" ID="4"/></Classmates></Data I want two items in the ListBox in this case: Sam and Sue What is the best way to accomplish this Thanks in advance -Sarah Tag: docking windows Tag: 71470

    - Webclient and Gzip Hey, I'm trying to set up a webclient to download a couple of DLL's and an .exe file. I know my server will be set up properly to accept gzip request and deliver the content gzipped... I know how to add the accept-encoding header to the webclient. What I don't know is if i have to decode the content coming back or if the webclient takes care of that for me... thanks in advance, Patrice. Tag: docking windows Tag: 71467
