• Jagdeep Sihota Stop Window Position Autosave When Automating(COM) Word

  Just a small project to utilize Word spellchecker. I'm using the technique of assigning the Top or the Left property of the Word.Application object to put it off-screen in combination of Visible=FALSE, so it will never flash when Quit() is called at the end of the process. However, the window position is being autosaved as the default for standalone Word. Is there a setting to prevent Word automation object from saving any setting ...Show All

• Cereal123 Events question

  hello there again people. i have been confused in c# events programming. i have this code and i have a form with 1 button named button1. thanks to both of you. so thats how to approach events programming as well. ;-) Hi, the issue you are having is that the event keyword is really a bit of syntactic sugar. When you class is compiled each event is really replaced by a class field of the type of delegate associated with the event and two new methods are added that allow you to add delegates and remove delegates from the underlying multicast delegate, initially this delegate field is null. So when you raise an event it is really invoking all of the delegates in the underlying multicast delegates invocation list, if you have ...Show All

• R1ZWAN Dataset designer problem using sql IN clause

  I have a query that works just fine agains the database using an in clause. where id in (5,6,7) However, when I try to use the dataset design and build a query using a in clause the designer is apparently looking at the data type of id and only allow me to pass in a valid integer for the parameter for the in clause. where id in ( ) I have tried change the parameter definition and actually specify that the parameter is a string but it still complains. Anyone know how to fix this Thanks I thought it might help to show the stack trace for the error that I get when running the sql with the offending parameter.

• genie_ Binding Source Question

  Okay. Here's a tough one for all you experts out there. I have a form with several textboxes and comboboxes. There is a button on the form that will open another form. Each form has it's own tableadapter. Both tableadapters share a common field called Card_ID. I have created a relationship between the two tableadapters joined with the Card_ID field. Here's my problem. When the user clicks on the button on the first form, I need to "save" the record in order for the data that is entered into the second form to "save" because the relationship requires a Card_ID in a record on the first form in order to match it with a Card_ID from the second form. I've been able to do that, but when the user closes the second form, th ...Show All

• Jassim Rahma Disappearing Addhandler??

  I am having a problem with an AddHandler that I've created to enable/disable buttons used to navigate between records: AddHandler Me .BindingContext(dsFin.Broker).PositionChanged, AddressOf Me .OnPositionChanged The addhandler is in the form constructor code. The problem I am having is that the addhandler line disappears intermittently which stops the firing of this event: Public Sub OnPositionChanged( ByVal sender As Object , ByVal e As System.EventArgs) If Me .BindingContext(dsFin, "Broker").Position = 0 Then btnFirst.Enabled = False btnPrev.Enabled = False ElseIf Me .BindingContext(dsFin, "Broker").Position = 1 Then btnFirst.Enabled = False bt ...Show All

• gauls VS2005 MyApplication_Shutdown not getting fired.

  We are developing windows application in VS2005 (VB.Net). I have placed resource clearing and audit entry in the "MyApplication_Shutdown" event. But this event is not getting fired when our application exits. When I tired with the sample application, in our system it works fine. I don't know whether I have disabled any setting so that this event does get fired. Note: I have checked application framework checkbox in application settings. I followed the sample and had no problems hitting Shutdown.

• Teradar Application.Run(...)TargetInvocationException -> OperationCompleted already called

  Hi. I get above mentioned error after my Application finished and the programm trys to call Application.Run(...) again. I have a Backgroundworker-Thread in the application and I think that this is somehow causing the problem. I just don’t know why. I set the the backgroundworker to "supportsCancel" and have already tried to explicitly cancel the BW. Still, the problem presists. Does anyone know how to solve this or at least where to look for an answer Thanks in advance. Brokit I think you are trying to "resurrect the dead." Post the logic on how you call the Application.Run() again. My initial guess is that you are passing the same object reference that has already terminated to the second cal ...Show All

• jods Setting the icon for a form

  I created an icon, then clicked on the form, then went to the form's properties and set the Icon property to point to the icon file. What I want is the icon to show up in the title bar of the form, and show up on the taskbar when the form is minimized. But, this isn't working. I'm puzzled because I thought that was what the Icon property was for. Oh, the form's ShowIcon property is set to true. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and working in C#. I did the same steps as you and it works for me. ShowIcon is true, Icon in properties window is set to the icon file in my folder. Icon appears in title bar and taskbar. Can you look at the icon file in Visual Studio and look at the device field Look at the ...Show All

• Dave U. DataGridView standard practice?

  OK so here is the deal. I would like to know what common practices are out there relating to my problem. First I have a class that defines a Question that has the following fields (QuestionID, CategoryID, QuestionText). I created a DataGridView and bound it to the object representation of Questions so all of the columns were generated in the designer as well. I set the bindingsource at runtime and things look fine. The grid contains all of the raw data. Now, I want to modify the grid to show the category name rather than the ID. The category name can be found in a lookup table. Note, I do NOT want to modify the Question class to contain the CategoryName and do a JOIN in the procedure to get the data. I want to keep the object ...Show All

• Ross Watson How to turn off "AutoGenerate" of columns when a DataGridView is data-bound

  I have a Windows form that has a DataGridView on it. I have bound the DataGridView to show data, that I specifed, from the database (I defined the cells that I want to see through the property page). But, the DataGridView is showing the cells I defined AND the data being returned from the dataset. So, the question - what property do I set to turn off the default columns being returned from the dataset With a web app, there is an "AutoGenerate Columns" that you set to true or false. What's the WinForm equivalent Thanks, Dexter I just had the same problem and it was because I was setting the datasource before I set the autogeneratecolumns to false. So I think it was binding, getting the data, then setting it to f ...Show All
