• Visual Studio Express Editions Copy image/graphic from panel/drawing surface to richtextbox

  I have the following code which allows freehand drawing using a mouse. It uses a panel as drawing surface. I will add the ability to load background images on the panel so can draw on that bmp. Now after all the drawing, I want to ensure its one image, a bmp, copy to clipboard then paste it into a richtextbox on another form in the program. Now attempting this I have tried several approaches. None have worked at all. The online tutorials or samples to study I can find are many years old and many version of basic ago. None work of course. Here is my base code for drawing. Any advice, or directing me to a tutorial, sample, or a reference book would be greatly appreciated. From what I read, this should work.

• Windows Forms Editing in Datagridview!

  Wadup! I have a GUI with a datagridview . The user can select some data (out of an integrated table) and the selected data from this table will be automatically written into a row of the Datagridview.

• .NET Development Copying files over a network - best way?

  Okay, here goes... Machine A and Machine B are on the same LAN. There's a file, or more a series of files, in different formats on Machine A. On Machine B there is a Card Reader or USB type storage area. On Machine B, there is a .NET Application, not sure yet if it's going to be a smart or thin client. The job of the .NET App is to copy a file from Machine A to Machine B. Also, it would be nice if it showed a progress bar of the file coming across. I'm relatively new to .NET - any tips or ideas on the best way to go about doing something like this Mods - not sure if this is the correct area to post this thread in - please move if necessary If folders from which the files have to be co ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Sum of hours for month following submission date only

  Hi - im a little stuck on one part of my system. Thanks to the help of others i can now get users to enter a submission date into the activity system that then restricts them from editing any activities prior to that submission date ( a field called 'datelastsubmitted'). However on that end of month submission form i also need to show the sum of all hours for the month that is to be submitted next. By this i mean that if a user last submitted on the 31/10/2006 then the next time he comes to submit he will see the sum total of activity hours he /she has entered for November 2006 i.e 01/11/2006 to 30/11/2006.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Counting Pixels in a 1-bit Image

  I kind of brought this up before, but the topic headed off in a different (yet constructive!) direction. I have a 1-bit image. Of course, this means that pixels are either "on" or "off". Is there a way to quickly find out how many pixels are set on I don't need to know which bits are set, just how many. Is there a way to do this without using "GetPixel" on every pixel I was thinking I can read in each bit, then find the unique values (0 or 1), but the image is large (25M pixels) and this method may be too slow. Any other ideas As always...thanks! Well, as usual nobugz, you've given me a wealth of great information. And as usual, I've hit a road block with the ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) XmlDataSource + path set to 'Name' = what's going on?

  Hi. Something's happening that I don't understand, and I wondered if any of you guys could shed some light on the situation. Consider a simple textbox, with a binding set as follows: < TextBlock Grid.Column = " 0 " Grid.Row = " 2 " x:Name = " TestText " Width = " 400 " Text = " {Binding Path=Name} " /> The data context is set to an XmlDataProvider defined in the code, into which I load some XML All pretty standard stuff. On running, the text box contains the name of the element the XmlDataProvider's Path is set to. How does it do this My understanding is that the "Path=Name" binding should bind the text attribute of the text box to an attribute of t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Winsock Where is it?

  Where do I find the Microsoft Winsock Control 6.0 A website told me to load that component but I dont know how help please thanks. you would be better using the .NET Classes since they are easier and are specialized in some way as well as on the .NET platform, than using the "old" tools and classes/components   http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.sockets.tcpclient.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.sockets.tcplistener.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.sockets.networkstream.aspx examples and docs are included in the links. if you still want to, which I would advise against, use the WinSock control, you need to browse ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team System: Understanding Why we need to do Branching

  I want to understand why and when need to do branching Here is my scenario: We have a main project in TS. When we do a release (version 1.0) and start developing for the next version(2.0), should the main development for the next version (v2.0) continue in the main trunk and the branch should be the release version (1.0.1, 1.0.2...) and maintain it for hot fixes or should the main trunk have the 1.0.1, 1.0.2.. and the branch be the 2.0 version so that when 2.0 is ready for release, merge it with the trunk. Is there any common practice for branching Thanks Thanks for information. We decided in using the 'Trunk' as development and the production version as a branch which will get updated every time we do a build to production. ...Show All
