• Windows Forms KeyDown Event, IsInputKey not working (C#)

  (C#, VS 2005) - I have a form, with a few radiobuttons on it. I want to do some stuff when the arrow keys are pressed but the event isn't raised. I found on MSDN that you should override IsInputKey, but I did that and it doesn't work (IsInputKey is never called). Another problem (may have something to do with it) is that i can't find a way to stop the arrow keys from scrolling through the radiobuttons. thanks in advance I know this will sound crazy, but try the KeyUp event instead ... I've found that that works for some keys where KeyDown doesn't. If that has no effect, I may have another suggestion ... lemme know. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Generic Workflow Host

  Dear all, Just want to know is it possible to write a generic Workflow host which allows users to: 1) pick and browse for a pre-designed workflow file (from the file system) 2) then change some of the rules 3) Run the workflow or we need to design an indvidual host for different kind of workflows. My concern is whether we need to re-compile the host or the workflow in case of any changes to the workflow rules. For example, the auto approval amount. Andy Tom, I've went through the Workflow Manager sample, a very good sample. But the Change Workflow function only applies to the the selected instance (Dynamic Update), not the actual workflow definitions. What I want is to chan ...Show All

Did anyone run into this porblem before and have any information how to solve this Thanks. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Create Private Accessor for UnitTests Kill my Unit Test Project's "Project" Refs

  Refactoring code by renaming methods is pretty common but this presents a problem when you are unit testing these methods and they aren't public. First VS doesn't auto rename the unit test related method names which is a bummer. I figured out that you can right click on the rename method and select "Generate Private Accessor" which isn't horrible I guess. However what is horrible is that when I do this, references to other projects in the solution get blown away on my Unit Tests project. Hopefully this gets fixed in VS 2005 SP1. I do mean the second case above - accessing the private members via reflection.  This is certainly a hole in the design.  Perhaps you could come up with an attri ...Show All

• Windows Forms Setup and Deployment Project FAQ

  Deployment FAQ   Q: I am now getting the following error when I build: " Unable to update the dependencies of the project. The dependencies for the object ' name.dll ' cannot be determined" A: Workaround :  Try to adjust the order of the Projects in the Solution and leave the Database project to the end. We can either edit the Solution (*.sln) file with notepad OR remove and add the Database Project back in the solution. (This also isn’t a great work-around as the addition of a project later in the development cycle will cause the corruption to re-appear).

• Windows Forms how can i run a windows form control without a web server

  If I have a webbrowser control hosted in an MFC application, how can I load a web page that embeds a windows form control and run the control without IIS or any other web server Dear Customer, I am somewhat confused about your scenario. Is your scenario as below. MFC-->WebBrowser--->WebPage--->Winform control "A--->B" means A will host B. So, the WebBrowser is an unmanaged WebBrowser control If so, I think you may first try to load the Webpage with Winform control in IE to see if that works, if yes, I can the same job will do for WebBrowser. Also For a webpage,e.g. test.html, we can load it from harddriver directly. just as you double click on a html webpage and the ...Show All

• .NET Development build query based on user input criteria (search function)

  I have a search form which contains a set of search criteria and a datagridview. the datagridview is populated by entering none or some of or all of these critera and click on "search" button. the search criteria are: name, dob, gender, date_time_registered, active , etc. I am able to build a simple query for each possibility, e.g. only search for one field, or search for all fields, or search for any 2 or these fields. This is rather inefficient. Is there a way to build one query to accommodate all possibilities I tried to do something like this: SELECT * FROM patient WHERE name = AND dob = AND date_time_registered = AND active = assume user only specified two criteria: name and active, I did this in my code ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums resize/padding pushpin detail

  Is it possible to resize the the pushpin detail window I know you can add a control and make it whatever size you want but I would like to keep the arrow VE produces for the window. Also, is there any way to reduce the padding in the detail window Seems like the way it is now is that there is alot of wasted space that is not necessary if you don't have alot of info in the window. Thanks, Jason Hi, being not quite an HTML developer, I am not too sure how to achieve the "To change the width you simply put the line of code in your css ensuring your css is referenced after the VE control" goal. Can I get a concrete example Thanks very much. Gordon ...Show All
