Windows Forms How do you not allow user to resize rows in a datagrid for C#?
I am making a form in C#. It has a datagrid that pulls information from a SQL table. How do I get it so the users can not resize the rows in the datagrid. I do want the datagrid enabled as I need to select currentrowindexes to do stuff with the data in the form. I just want to know how do I prevent the user from resizing the rows This can easily be changed in the properties of the component (if using VCS Express Edition), else just include: dataGridView1.AllowUserToResizeRows = false ; :P ...Show All

Visual Studio CommandBar icon problems and Connect, OnConnection not called
I have an add-in which is using a tool window, I'm trying to change the CommandBar icon, but changing the icon index seems to have no effect until I delete the .addin file, close then reload the project, then restore the .addin file. I've tried this with the MyAddin example with no problems. Further investigation shows that closing then re-opening the project also causes the menu entry to disappear. Using breakpoints, it seems that the Connect and OnConnection functions are not being called except when the add-in is first loaded (by comparison the MyAddIn example calls Connect and OnConnection every time it is loaded). Any ideas what's going on or how I can fix it FWIW, read carefully this article: HOW ...Show All
SharePoint Products and Technologies Syntax of AvailableWebTemplates
In customizing the internet publishing site definition, I noticed there is an option to limit the available template(s) for any subsites that are created in a site collection. The "AvailableWebTemplates" is what does it. By example, I understand how to limit it to only ONE template -- see below. I am guessing the "*-" means remove all templates and the subsequent text is of the form <ConfigurationName>#<ConfigurationID>. <!-- Snippet from my custom ONET.XML --> < Feature ID = " 22A9EF51-737B-4ff2-9346-694633FE4416 " > <!-- Publishing --> < Properties xmlns = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/ " > < Property Key = " ChromeMasterUrl & ...Show All

.NET Development Garbage collector and FlowLayoutPanel ControlsCollection
I have a FlowLayoutPanel which I add controls to. At some other time in the program I want to remove all controls which I use Controls->Clear() for. The problem is that the controls aren’t collected by the garbage collector as they are supposed to. I’ve done some testing. In the first test (form class constructor) I add 100 controls and then I call Controls->Clear, the garbage collector goes in and collects all the dead controls as it should. Everything is fine. But if I add and clear the controls in a menu click event function it doesn’t work at all. The Controls disappear and the ControlCollection has not object anymore but the garbage collector doesn’t collect any dead objects. Thanks in advanced! ...Show All
Visual Basic Experimental Learning
I am making a front-end program for the lame mp3 encoder simply for learning experience. I can get it to handle all the options and output the files perfectly. There are a few questions I still have though. 1. Is there a way to hide the command window that pops up when encoding a file and instead show my own progress window 2. How would I detect the progress of the encoding 3. When I have a list of files to encode the only way I can think of is to encode them all at once. Is there a way to encode them one at a time 4. Is there a way to find the bitrate of a file When I add files to the list i want to show the bitrate of that file. That is what I have for now. Thank you to anyone that can help. As an aside, I have thought about contacting a ...Show All

Windows Forms DataGrid rows not editable
I have created a DataGrid and have bound a DataSet to it using C#. The Windows form loads properly, but none of the rows are editable. I have tried programattically setting the ReadOnly property to false, but that doesn't seem to work. Any idea what might be wrong As far as I can tell, the datagrid is NOT readonly. Here is my code: DataTable CreditTypeSettings = new DataTable("CreditTypeSettings"); DataColumn column; DataRow row; //CreditType_ID column = new DataColumn(); column.DataType = typeof(System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlInt64); column.ColumnName = "CreditType_ID"; column.AutoIncrement = false; column.Caption = "CreditTy ...Show All
.NET Development SQL LIKE QUERY WITH A PARAMETER
I have a problem with a LIKE query in vb.net. I want to run a query which will output all of the usernames that end with a certain character. I need to use a LIKE query but I am not sure how to use a parameter. I have tried this: SELECT Username FROM TblUsers WHERE (Username LIKE '%= ') ORDER BY Username This does not work because it does not allow me to enter the value I want. If anyone can help I will be grateful. Thanks Thanks everyone for your help. I think I have worked it out! This cannot be done using an Access database as the OLEDB connectionstring will not allow complex queries e.g. LIKE, it will only allow SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE etc. So by creating a new SQL database, on a b ...Show All

Visual Basic Check for encrypted match.
