    - Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Hi Is it possible to Add rows to datagrid with out assigning a datasource to it, ie For Example Dim dsEmployee as Dataset dsEmployee=select * from employee TextBox1.Text = (dsEmployee.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("employee_id")) now textbox1.text will contain employee_id In this way without this statement DataGrid1.DataSource = dsEmployee.Tables(0) can we add contents of a row to a datagrid without assigning any datatable to it I tried doing it as Datagrid1.datasource =Nothing DataGrid1.Item(0,0) = dsEmployee.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("employee_id") //Item(rowIndex,columnIndex) method "gets or sets the value of the cell at specified row and column" But it Didn't work I Got error as An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll Additional information: Data cannot be read from a DataGrid which is not bound to a DataTable. Iam not sure that datagrid will work without assigning a datasource Is it possible pls let me know Thanks Shreelu Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102905

    - load an .exe (windows) programmatically I'm trying to write a windows Forms VB application which takes other windows applications (i.e. .exe file) as input. It then loads the .exe programmatically and looks for the Windows Forms in the .exe. Dim al As Assembly al = Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\Experiments\wintest2.exe") Dim t() As Type = al.GetTypes() For Each t1 As Type In t If t1.BaseType.Namespace = "System.Windows.Forms" Then end if Next In this above loop I want to create the object of all the form Class (in the if block) in the loaded .exe. When I try this with t1 it says "It is a type " basically the project wouldn't build. I'm able to do the same by just adding the reference of the .exe and then just write. This gives form object. but my problem is that I have to load the .exe programmtically and then find Windows Forms it and create the object for them. Any help is appreciated Dim aa As New wintest2.Form2 Vivek Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102895

    - Window freezes unexpectedly I'm experiencing unexpected intermittant freezing of my windows form application. Unfortunately, no amount of logging within the application can help me divine why. I expect that it has something to do with other environmental factors. I expect it's Lotus Notes messing with my runtime somehow. Anywone else experience such a problem?

    - Question about MDI child form... I have an MDI main form that shows a child. WHen the child is shown it maximizes to fit in the space available in the main form. FOr some reason when I set the window property of my child to maximize when the app runs it shows the controlbox buttons (minimize,maximize). I have disabled all the properties that would allow this to happen yet it still occurs. If i set it to run as a normal window it does what it is suppose to but that is not what I want, I want it to be maximized, is there any explanation for this?

    - ProcessCmdKey up to parent form Hello, I have an MDI application which manages smaller tool windows (implemented as separate, modeless Forms), sort of like Adobe Photoshop. The menu items in the main app form can be activated using shortcuts. When I do something in one of the tool windows, keyboard focus changes to the tool window. Is there a way I can have the shortcuts for the menu items in the main app work when keyboard focus is in the tool window? I was hoping there would be a solution like overriding ProcessCmdKey, and calling the tool window's ParentForm.ProcessCmdKey(), but obviously I can't. Is there another way to have shortcuts processed by a different form than the one which has keyboard focus?

    - Limit to range of colors displayed by Label control? Hi, I was just curious to know if there was a limit to the range of colors a label control can display. For instance if I set a label control's ForeColor to 28, 23, 15 it renders black (on my system, at least - but I'm running an nVIDIA GeForce 440 MX 64MB card running in 32-bit color, which should be plenty able to render that properly). Anyway, it occurred to me that perhaps the label had a restricted color range, and if this is the case, which other controls might this restriction apply to? thanks! evan k. stone | software engineer ---------------------------------------- santa rosa, ca, usa Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102886

    - Question about DataRows/DataGrids Hey all, I have a question about using DataRows (and ultimately, its interplay with a DataGrid) So I create my DataSet, create a DataTable, configure it with columns and then add rows like so: (C++ .NET) DataTable* table; //assume setup DataRow* row = table->NewRow(); //columns 0,1, and 2 are all setup in the table row->set_Item(0,fi[i]->get_Name()); //assume fi[i]->GetName() returns some string* row->set_Item(1,S"Queued"); row->set_Item(2, S"---"); table->get_Rows()->Add(row); After I have added the row to the table, can I still use the DataRow object to change data in the row, or is this a no-no ? Do I need to wrap the changes with calls to DataRow::BeginEdit and DataRow::EndEdit? After I have added the DataTable to the DataSet and, set a DataGrid to refer to the DataSet and display the DataTable I setup, can I still change stuff then? If I do, what is the proper way to update things? Should I call DataGrid::Update()? I'm dealing with some nasty problems where I get the "No original data" error from my datagrid while I'm updating literally all the rows in the table by just directly referring to the DataRow object I got from DataTable::NewRow() in the beginning. tia, rj ryan Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102885

    - Windows Service and Threading What is the proper way to terminate a Thread in a Windows Service? I have a windows service which starts up three threads which run in a while loop as long as a boolean flag is set to true. These threads each sleep for X ammount of time then start processing again. Since this is a service it's basically running in an infinite loop. When the user goes to stop the service, I have been calling the Thread.Abort() method, which throws a ThreadAbortedException. I've also tried using the Thread.Interupt() method to wake any sleeping threads, but that too throws a ThreadInteruptedException. What is the proper way to kill these threads in the 30 second timeframe that the windows service framework gives a service to respond back? If catching these Exceptions are the correct way to stop the service, what is the correct way to know if the service actually dies on it's own for some reaon (i.e. god forbid locking)?

    - TLB using problem I created very simple Class Library in VB 2005 (let's call it COMInterop). I set Register For COM Interop property to true to make it accessible by VB6 program. After I compiled it, I got COMInterop.dll and COMInterop.tlb files, I have no problem with using both of them on the machine where the project was compiled - TLB with VB6 clients and DLL with VB 2005 clients. I copied the tlb and dll files onto another machine and registered TLB file with regtlib.exe. I've got a message about successful registration. I created a new VB 2005 Windows Form project, added the reference to COMInterop.dll and it works fine. I created VB6 project, added a reference to this TLB. I'm trying to use it with the simple code which works with VB 2005, but produces an error in VB6: Run time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object The code in client: Private obj As COMInteropTest.COMInterop Private Sub Command1_Click() Set obj = New COMInteropTest.COMInterop 'The error occurs on this line MsgBox obj.myFunction End Sub What am I missing?

    - Interacting with modal and modeless forms Hi all I am writing a piece of control software that monitors data from a data source and controls the data source peripherals. I am using a Modeless Form to monitor the data and to change the data source parameters in real time. I am using Modal Forms to control the peripherals, because these are popped up, used and closed again when required. My problem, is that whenever I open one of the Modal Forms, the Modeless Form no longer responds to input. I could do this in C++ / MFC by giving the Modeless Form a NULL owner, but it seems as though in DotNet a NULL owner impies the Main Application Form. Does anyone know how I can get around this problem. Laurence Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102878

    - ClickOnce and login on as a different user Hello group I'm developing an C# Windows Forms application that I would like to deploy using ClickOnce. One of the computers that the application is deployed on, is a computer that is always loged on as a generic "controlroom" user. This is necessary for some of the other applications running on the computer. On my application, the user should always logon as himself or herself. Therefore I need to present a login form to the user as the first thing. I have been considering using RunAs, but I'm not sure that is possible along with ClickOnce, at least nok using the GUI of RunAs. I have looked at the Windows API LogonUser, but that seems to be requiring unsafe code permissions and FullTrust, and I was hoping that I could avoid giving those permissions to the application, especially when I'm deploying it using ClickOnce. Do you have any alternative suggestions? Thank you for your answer. Regards Anders Olsen Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102854

    - Custom title bar size in Non-client area Hi! I am trying to make a custom size title-bar in the non-client area of the form. I've tried hooking to the NCCALCSIZE message with this code: case (int)Native.NativeMethods.WindowMessages.WM_NCCALCSIZE: if (m.WParam == IntPtr.Zero) { // get the NCCALCSIZE parameters NativeMethods.NCCALCSIZE_PARAMS csp; // Marshal them from the pointer csp = (NativeMethods.NCCALCSIZE_PARAMS)Marshal.PtrToStructure(m.LParam, typeof(NativeMethods.NCCALCSIZE_PARAMS)); // Resize the client area to make more room above csp.rectBeforeMove.top-= csp.rectBeforeMove.top/ 2; Marshal.StructureToPtr(csp, m.LParam, false); } else { base.WndProc(ref m); } return; However, it just says that I am trying to read or write into a protected memory. If i modify any other value, i.e. right, left or bottom of the same rectangle, it works OK yet there are no changes. I also tried changing the other two rectangles, but the result is never what I need. I would really appriciate any suggestions on this topic.

    - Detecting application close hi, A friend is configuring windows in a way that he's not using explorer shell, he's using something else (I hope I wrot this corectlly :) ). Now ... when shell is closed he want's to close windows down. Is it possible to create windows service that can "listen" when will an application (shell) close and then start windows shutdown ? (windows shutdown is rather trivial, I'm more conserned about first part of the problem). I hope you'll understard this :) thanx, Neven Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102797

    - Displaying Xml with WebBrowser control Hi, I'd like to display a xml content in the webbrowser control. The xml is in memory not on a file on the disk. How can I display this xml content (like Visual Studio 2005 when you see the content of a string as Xml while debugging).

    - FileSystem.WriteAllText (broken methodl) Hi - I am trying to dynamically write vbscript file to c drive. But it will not execute. I have notice some crap in windiff which suggest that VB has unusual way of creating a file. Anyway it doesn't work and I was hoping to use the script to bypass some chunky .NET schedule task code. Anyone know about creating VBS file from VB.NET? '--code below Dim c As Char = """"c Dim s As String s = "WScript.Echo " + c + "Hello World" + c My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("c:\test.vbs", s, False) Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102793

    - Transparent controls on UserControl Hi all, I have a variety of controls that I'm adding to my UserControl.Controls. I want to have them and all their contained controls to be support transparency. I've overridden my UserControl's OnPaint event - but the graphic I paint only shows up if I set each individual control's backcolor to Transparent. Is there another way of doing this. Here is a related post: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.windowsforms/browse_frm/thread/8190c5a89fa9e95/1da1f9d4321f80a3?lnk=st&q=transparent+onpaint+control&rnum=3#1da1f9d4321f80a3 Thanks, Novice Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102792

    - Capturing mouse event at higher level in containment hierarchy Hey all, I have fairly deep nesting of controls in my Form. At a relatively high level in this hierarchy I would like to react to mouse click, mouse down, mouse up events. But the events don't seem to perculate up through the containment hierarchy. Any suggestions? Thanks, Novice Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102785

    - Unhandled exception ignored? In the simplified code below, shouldn't the thrown exception cause the app to terminate since it is unhandled? It doesn't seem to do anything in Debug or Release mode. I do get a first-chance exception message in the debugger but that's it. Something seems to be intercepting the exception and handling it...but I don't know what. Any info would be appreciated :) -sb // Entire program using System; using System.Windows.Forms; static class Program { [STAThread] static void Main() { Application.Run(new Form1()); } } public class Form1 : Form { public Form1() { this.AllowDrop = true; this.DragDrop += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.Form1_DragDrop); this.DragOver += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.Form1_DragOver); } private void Form1_DragOver(object sender, DragEventArgs e) { e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy; // We'll accept any kind of drop } private void Form1_DragDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e) { throw new InvalidOperationException("DragDrop exception."); // nothing happens here } } Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102784

    - webbrowser, net 2.0, navigate to name tag Hello, I want to use the Webbrowser control (Net 2.0) to display our help files. webbrowser1->Url = gcnew Uri("/Terminal.html#Terminal_CompNo"); So, I want 1) to display the file "/Terminal.html" and 2) to move to the name tag "Terminal_CompNO". Display the file - is OK but the move to the name tag - failed. This was the same with the OCX-Control, there was an special func 'NavigateByDoc'. Has anybody an idea to make an work around or anything else. Frank Iversen Tag: Is it possible to assign contents to a Datagrid without Assigning a Data Source Tag: 102778

    - Bug in SaveFileDialog Hello there, I found a bug using SaveFileDialog and I was not able to find any similar issue on the web. This seems to apply to any .NET Applications using SaveFileDialog. To perform the bug: 1. Open a SaveFileDialog and save any File, e.g. TestDocument0.txt: This should create a document named TestDocument0.txt 2. Call once again the SaveFileDialog, select the TestDocument0.txt you created in the File Window: The name of the File appears in the Text Box, left of the "Open" Button. (Notice, the Selected File is still grayed in the File Window) 3. Rename the Text in this Text Box, e.g. TestDocument1.txt: (Notice, the Selected File is still grayed in the File Window) 4. Click in the File Window, but not on a folder or a file. The previously selected File is not grayed anymore, the focus is set on nothing. 5. Press the "Save" Button, you will get the following Waning: "File TestDocument0.txt already exists. Do you want to replace it" The error is obvious, it should save my file as TestDocument1.txt, and not TestDocument0.txt, as it appears on the Text Box. Could you reproduce such strange behaviour?

Hi
Iam working with VB.NET
Is it possible to Add rows to datagrid with out assigning a datasource
to it, ie

For Example
Dim dsEmployee as Dataset
dsEmployee=select * from employee
TextBox1.Text = (dsEmployee.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("employee_id"))
now textbox1.text will contain employee_id

In this way without this statement
DataGrid1.DataSource = dsEmployee.Tables(0)

can we add contents of a row to a datagrid without assigning any
datatable to it

I tried doing it as
Datagrid1.datasource =Nothing
DataGrid1.Item(0,0) = dsEmployee.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("employee_id")

//Item(rowIndex,columnIndex) method "gets or sets the value of the cell

at specified row and column"

But it Didn't work I Got error as

An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException'
occurred in system.windows.forms.dll
Additional information: Data cannot be read from a DataGrid which is
not bound to a DataTable.

Iam not sure that datagrid will work without assigning a datasource

Is it possible
pls let me know
Thanks
Shreelu
