• emcee Formatting text with different fonts in DataGridView text cell

  Hi I have a column in a DatagridView which contains text. Is there anyway to get different parts of the text to display in different fonts. I know I could do this with custom painting but I want this particular column to set the height of each row using AutoSizeRowsMode which is proving difficult manually with custom painting. I was hoping there was a way maybe with OnCellFormatting to be able to set different parts of the text displayed to use different fonts. What I am trying to achive one way or another is a text column, the height of the text in this colum determines the row height for each row and the some lines of the text are displayed in bolld/underline, some in bold and some with neither such as Line 1 Line 2 L ...Show All

• Hilton Goldstein Problem with sequential processing

  This is a VB.NET 2.0 question. After a button is clicked on my form, I have a series of subroutines that fire in sequential order ( they are called StepOne(), StepTwo() ... StepNine() ). After each sub completes, a label on the main form should become visible to indicate that step is complete ( lblStep1, lblStep2 ... lblStep9 ). My problem is that the labels are all appearing after the final step is complete, instead of one at a time. I know that most of these steps take enough time that I would see the step labels appear one at a time. Any advice would be helpful (within the 2.0 framework - the project constraints prevent me from using the 3.0 WinWF). Hi jwerner You need to put an Applicatio ...Show All

• Alan Jr set databinding to nothing

  Hey guys, I was wondering if there is anyway that I can cause my databound fields to be empty on startup. Currently they display the data from the first record but if possible i would like them to stay blank until i actually select the record to view(I have a treelist of to the side that allows me to select records). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in Advance Hi, If you're binding through BindingSource control, you can try calling its SuspendBinding() method to suspend binding (bound controls won't display data values). Call ResumeBinding() to resume binding (after a selection in the treeview is done). Andrej ...Show All

• 22DoorsDown listbox string justification

  Hi all, i have a list box ito which i am entering Strings. I want all strings to be the same length, padded with spaces and then two characters on the end, so that all strings take up the full width of the listbox i.e. today /t yesterday /y next week /n however i try to do this I get today /t yesterday /y next week /n any ideas how I can do this.

• Adarsh123 Help: Multiple forms vs MDI Application in VS 2005 express

  I'm a bit confused. I'd like to use different windows forms to show different views of a database. Would I use an MDI application, or many (main) forms in a "normal" windows application I assume that having many windows, means that one has to be displayed from another or from menu. Therefore many forms must be able to be open at the same time. Will that work The other benefit to MDI is that all of the other forms will be "within" the MDI parent. This allows the end user to minimize all app forms just by minimizing the MDI parent. However before you that, you might want to rethink your UI design approach. Remember, that even if you can display many w ...Show All

• Jan Kučera How to know which item in ListBox is slected?

  thak you you may use the ListBox.SelectedItem to retreive the currently selected item. //Jocke Hi, accessing ListBox's SelectedItem will return the currently selected item. There's also SelectedIndex, which will return the list index of currently selected item. If it returns -1, no item is selected. Andrej ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString() this will return the selected item in the list box. You can use the ListBox.SelectedItem property to retrieve the selected item. This is null when no item was selected. Here is a little example: private void button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { object selectedItem = listBox1.SelectedItem ...Show All

• yanivpinhas System.UriFormatException Problem

  Hi folks. I'm having a problem with a line of code that's throwing the above exception (System.UriFormatException) in my Windows Form application (VS 2005, C++):      spToolClick = gcnew SoundPlayer( "toolclick.wav" ); The spToolClick object is a member of the Form1 class. If I comment this line, the application stops throwing the exception. If I leave it in, the app throws the exception, but continues to run - and is nevertheless able to later play the sound that I reference ("toolclick.wav"). The exception is only visible in the debug output of Visual Studio. Even though the exception seems harmless, I'm just wondering what is causing it & what I should do about it     Zero & ...Show All
