• Windows Forms How to read all surviving DataGridView rows subsequent to user deleting rows

  This is an embarrasingly simple question to ask, but I'm perplexed and without an answer. I've created a datagridview object in C# and bound it to a simple datatable. The datagridview displays just fine, and allow the user to perfrom all desired functions (sorting, editing cells, and deleting). I provide the user with a "Load data" button to be used once all the editing is done. My intention is to present the table data to the user via the DataGridViewer; allow the user to manipulate it, and simply read through each row in the DataGridView and process it. I don't even need to update the source table. However, the rowcount property is not updated to reflect the fact that there are less rows subsequent to the user deletin ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Need to know if uploading with VB Express app is possible.

  Hi I have a copy of Visual Basic Express 2005 and I am currently writing an application that has to upload images to my domain into a specified folder. The problem is that everything I have been reading a researching on this hasnt helped me. I have used "My.Computer.Network.UploadFile" and have also tried the "System.Web.UI.WebControls.FileUpload.SaveAs" and both dont seem to want to work. the latter simply tells me that UI is not a member of System.Web The first one seems to work on pretty much all the methods such as "ping,IsAvailable" etc, but doesnt seem to work for uploading or downloading. My file paths are correct, the server is up and running and I am connected to the internet when I run the debug ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Saving Entire Forms

  How can I simply save an entire form in Visual Basic Express I have created two forms in in my project. One form asks the user to input information in text boxes. The other form simply reads the input in form1 and duplicates the user input. How do I then save form2 as it is Please help! I've been searching this answer for two days. I know it's probably right in front of me. I am not sure about this, I am pretty sure there maybe a way however I would suggest to save any inputs, which you need to load later on, to a file such as Xml or store it in a database or something.   maybe try this http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/Save_Data_XML_Winform.asp ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Problems with: Detecting if a user clicked on a 3D object

  I'm rather new at working in 3d at this level but not exactly new to C# and definitely not new to 3D models... but I usually work with a tool such as Blender, 3DS or Maya. I have my simple mesh object and it displays just fine. When I use the sample code as a guide, I find that I need to make my own Bounding Box... and I understand the process in theory but applying it to the code is giving me fits. **************** Issue1: Using a Bounding Box with the dimentions of triangleBB in the sample causes this: Nullable < float > result = pickRay . Intersects(triangleBB); // Returns NaN regardless of where clicked. That's my shorthand... pasted code with what it results in after the comment.... Question... so why ...Show All

• Windows Forms Adjusting Panel position and its members creates flashing effect

  I have a panel setup for a bunch of buttons and labels. This form stays the same, but the labels change names and the panel centers on the screen after each time the names change. Each time the location of the panel changes location there is an unwanted flashing effect on the panel and labels. There is a background image and the panel and labels flash white. When the background image is removed, the flashing stops (most likely because you cannot see the white on the white background). Is there a way to stop the auto redraw of the panel temporarily I'm programming in C# now, but I also had this problem in Basic. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Transformations on AdornedElement are also applied to Adorner?!

  Hi, I’m using Adorners on shapes and other controls. I’ve noticed that the Adorner is scaled, when the AdornedElement contains a transformation with a scale transform. But I don't want the Thumbs and the bounding rectangle in the Adorner to be scaled also. Is there an easy way around this, or do I manually have to scale these back again. In ArrangeOverride I might be able to scale down the Thumb accordingly if I find that there is a scale transform applied to the AdornedElement. It might not be that easy with the pen used to draw the bounding rectangle though, since it's no likely that it should be scaled down equally on all sides. Thanks in advance! / Joel There's nothing magical about how an adorner is ...Show All

• SQL Server Installing SQL Express 2K5 on a domain controller?

  I want to install SQL Express 2K5 on a lightly used second Windows 2003 SP1 DC. I know about the warning not to do this type of install.

• SQL Server SSIS-jobs fails after installing SP2

  On my laptop I've got SQL2005 developper edition SP1 with 3 SSIS-jobs scheduled through SQL-agent. These 3 SSIS-jobs are in fact maintenance plans which are also used on our production SQLServers. These take backups (full, transactional), Cleanup old backups, reorganize indexes, update stats ... One of these jobs runs every hour to take transaction logbackups. After installing SP2 this started failing. When I opened the sources of that job in visual studio It seemed like the unit of thime was changed for cleanup jobs fe cleanup bak-files after 4 days changed into after 4 hours.

• Visual Studio Express Editions RichTextBox: Change Bold, Italic, Size etc. in a selection

  I want to create a text editor using a RichTextBox and the user should be allowed to make parts of the text bold, italic, change font face and size and so on. The problem is: How can I change these properties in a selected piece of text without affecting the other properties Let's say the user typed in: This sentence has both bold and italic words in it. Now let's say the user selects the part " both bold and italic words " and clicks on the button for bold which in this case should change the selection to bold. I cannot use: RichTextBox1.SelectionFont.Bold = True as it is read-only, and I cannot use: RichTextBox1.SelectionFont = New Font(RichTextBox1.SelectionFont, FontStyle.Bold) either, because the se ...Show All
