• lurch_man Help - problem with datagridview on tab control that is not active during data load

  Hi, I have this problem in my application development (C#, windows form). I have a datagridview in a tab control on the form that the tab it belongs to is not the active one during data load. In that datagridview, I have defined some unbounded check box columns which I manually (programmatically just after the data load) set to true or false based on a text box column (bounded) in the row. The problem is if I set the tab with the datagridview in it to be the active tab before the data load, the check marks on the checkboxes show properly. But when the tab with the datagridview in it is not the active tab before the data load, check marks does not show on the checkboxes. This problem I have is kind of hard to explain so I created a test ...Show All

• ZopoStyle No Server Explorer or Data Sources

• Quack! Master/Detail relation where Detail is a TextBox

  I have a master detail relationship where the master is displayed in a Datagridview and the detail in a multiline TextBox. The data binding is set up with the foreign key relation as a Datasource for the Bindingsource for the detail, so it updates when you scroll trough the master table. When a row is added in the master table, a row is not automatically inserted for the detail table. I created a little example with the pubs sample database, where the publisher table is the master and the pub_info is the detail. When the Textbox is entered, I create the row myself and add it to the dataset like in the following example. private void pr_infoTextBox_Enter( object sender, EventArgs e) { if (pub_infoBindin ...Show All

  Hi 2 all, Can I have a ".vb" form and ".cs" form in same project If possible, How can I do this I want 2 work with c# and VB languages in same Project. Please send me a solution. Thanx In advance... you cannot have a vb class in a c# project. However you can add a new vb project to the solution and add vb class files to this vb project I don't think so. You split that in separate projects which can be used in one solution. E.g. make one a class library project used in the other project. -- SvenC ...Show All

• Kathirvel Simple Form customisations

  Hi, I'm at the moment learning C# through Visual C# Express edition and have a few questions. My first is that in my custom web browser I am designing how do I alter it, so that after I type my URL in my text box, it makes my browser go to that site as well as being able to press a GO button form. Also how I make it so that when I press Maximize the parts of my form scale to my Maximized window.

  Hi, ive searched online and through the forums for a couple hours and i havent found any help for my problem, so i decided to start a thread.

• joslat Modeless Dialog boxes that are Always in Focus

  How do you make a modeless dialog box so that it is always in focus with the parent window Like the floating menus in Photoshop, for example. Whatever I do, I haven't found a way to keep more than one window in focus at a time. If you open a modeless window, with an MDI parent container as the main dialog, and pass the instance handle of the parent to the show method: MyToolWindow.Show(MdiParent) You'll get what you're looking for. A form border style of tool window will prevent the window's title bar from showing a gradient on XP with themes, and you want ShowInTaskbar = false. That being said... Only one window can have the "focus" because the message pump (WndProc) can't go to m ...Show All
