Strange thing is: everythings seems to work OK...

• Windows Forms About the cursor position in the richtextbox...

  I have a problem in getting the cursor position in the richtextbox in order to get the inputcursor position (x,y) as to know the row and colum( especially,which line is the cursor in). actually, I knew how to get the mouse cursor's position, but it's not the the input cursor in the richtextbox. so would you please give me a example on how to get the lines of the cursor. and is it to add CursorChanged eventhandler or others thank u very much! That seemingly small task is more complicated than it should be, the only way I can think of requires some win32 interop to get the carret position, take a look at this as a quick solution: http://groups.google.de/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp/msg/91bff2e690a5dbd5 Or even b ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2005 Developer edition fails during installation

• .NET Development Naming rules for a base namespace in a Class Library

  I am building a Class Library for use with a number of applications within my company.
