• Seth Livingston Background image for datagrid

  I need to set a backgroung image to my datagridView object. I am aware that there is no such property , but however i desperately want it. Does any other 3rd party GridView , provide this property Yes, the DataGridView has this property: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.datagridview.backgroundimage.aspx But only because it derives from Control, which has the property. If you read down on that page, it mentions that "This property is not relevant for this control." I do not think you can place a background image on the DataGridView, at least not easily. I wouldn't even begin to dream of owner-drawing the thing, either, it is so complex. Depending on your needs there ...Show All

• Jabs Handling control non-client area in the designer

  I have created a control derived from UserControl, where I am drawing a border in the non-client area. The designer for this control is derived from ControlDesigner. I have two problems when dragging/moving this control around the design surface. 1) I don't receive any WM_NCPAINT message while the control is being dragged, so my border is not painted. 2) When the mouse down to start the drag is in the non-client area, it is ignored by the designer. Is there any way to get around these problems other than re-implementing dragging in the designer or moving my border into the client area Ken and Joey, Your comments have been very useful for helping me understand how this all works.

• chubbysilk "the path is not of a legal form" error

  Hi, I made a control, and when I try to add it to a form, it shows me the error "the path is not of a legal form". How can I solve it Thanks. Beware that the code in your control may run while the form designer is using it. For example, the Paint event will run as will your constructors. Does your control do anything with file paths Suppress code execution while the designer is using it by checking the DesignMode property. I'd put the test before the code that uses filepaths... can you give us more detail than that any code Where does the error come from how did you make the control But I didn't add any other reference especially for it, so it shouldn' ...Show All

• Johnny Raved Getting the xp styles to work on windows 2000

  Hi Is it posibble to somehow getting the windows xp control styles (buttons tabcontrol etc.) implemented in windows 2000 I dont know if you can do something in the compilation so that the controls are compiled also. My program is made in vb2005 with a ot of the xp styles, and it looks really crappy in windows 2000.

I myself is not a fan of windows 2000, but some of my potential buyers only have windows 2000, because it is expencive to change OS. no its not possible since Windows 2000 was developed before Windows XP, the features etc... are XP ...Show All
