• Windows Forms Keep control form uppermost

  I call form2 from form1. I would like form1 (control form) to always be uppermost. form2 should always appear under form1 in terms of order. Although I have set form1's toplevel = true and topmost = true, when I call form2 it still appears above form1. How can I resolve this Thanks in advance Thanks nobugz. That works almost perfect. Just 1 thing. After form2 is opened focus remains on form2. How can I return focus to the control form form1 ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with C# using XPathNavigator

  ...or maybe I just don't know what I'm doing!  Which could be a very good possiblity. Going to explain what the app is actually doing first.  I'm saving some file paths to an xml document.  It is pretty much like a config file.  I can successfully save folder paths.  If I try to save file paths, then for some reason it just doesn't write the info to the xml document(ex: C:\Windows\NOTEPAD.exe).  First I'm converting the string to unicode, then converting to Base64String, and saving. for ( int  x = 0; x < listBox1.Items.Count; x++) { filestring = Convert .ToBase64String( UnicodeEncoding .Unicode.GetBytes(listBox1.Items[x].Text)); } xnav.SetValue(filestring); //this i ...Show All

• Visual Basic Childform misbehaving? Ignoring location commands.

  I have used the following code to try to have to childforms appear in a parent form. However, when i run the program, the child forms do not go to the specified sizes nor locations. The only bit that assumes the control doesn't exist already is the bit where I call new on it. The code all assumes the control is not part of hte form yet, however. Naturally, you cannot cut and paste my code, it's creating an instance of a class I wrote ( that you don't have ). Substitute your own control name for the one I am creating. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office can I have a macro with VSTO?

  Is it possible in VSTO to have a macro with a keypress event and then have that call a function to execute code   For example, can I have a macro behind the 'w' key, and everytime it is pushed I execute code   I've been searching around online for a while but can't find anything.  I've looked at the VSTO book too and nothing is in there about it.  I found this link: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.office.developer.vba/browse_thread/thread/277183545f501d9f/d3fe55d7a78e1f62 lnk=st&q=creating+a+macro+in+vba+code+vsto&rnum=3&hl=en#d3fe55d7a78e1f62  but is there a way to do it without VBA   I'm guessing no, but just double checking. Thanks for your time! ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO Outlook 2007 Form Region Question

  i have created a new Ribbon with 2 toggleButtons: buttonA and buttonB. what i want is for the page of my custom form region to swap when I click the ribbon buttons. much the same as if I were on a standard Contact item, clicking the 'General' and 'Details' buttons. so far I have created a form region with the formRegionType set to 'replaceAll'. i am uncertain of how to proceed. do i create 2 separate form regions to achieve this or do i somehow implement paging within a single form region i know that i can use the getPressed handler of my ribbon button to make a callback to fire this. but am uncertain where to go from there. thanks.

  I just installed IE7 and love the new look. However, all of my desktop icons do not run the program without first asking me if I want to run **.exe and give me a RUN radio button. They mention that the publisher is unknown and do I want to run this software. The software is from known publishers and I have multiple products from them. Is there a way to correct this I looked at the security settings and changed them, but nothing seems to work. I searched the threads, but could not find anyone with a post that was my exact issue.

• Visual Studio Team System How To Generate Sales Data

  I want to generate sales data where different product will have different price in diferrent date. Let say I have a Product table to store the MinPrice and MaxPrice of each product. How do I generate the data so that the price is in the range of MinPrice and MaxPrice for each product Thanks. Jimmy Hi Jimmy, Here is the solution that I figured out by using Data Bound Generator: 1. Assume the table definitions are like ProductTable [ MinPrice (Money), MaxPrice(Money), SaleDate (SmallDateTime) ], SalesTable [ SalePrice(Money), SaleDate(SmallDateTime)] and you are using Sql2000 (or Sql2005 if you like). 2. Add a SQL2000 Database project. 2. Import the Schema of the Database co ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to get an ActivityExecutionContext in a custom rule expression, that's being used by a rule condition?

  Hi there, I've written a very simple custom rule expression that returns a literal value. The value itself is stored in a WorkflowRuntimeService object. I've also written a declared rule condition that uses this expression in an IfElseBranchActivity. The problem - when my expression's 'Evaluate' method is called, the passed RuleExecution parameter doesn't have a reference to an ActivityExecutionContext object. Looking around a bit with the reflector, it seems that a RuleExecution object is created with a reference to an ActivityExecutionContext object only when created for use in a RuleSet . Meaning that, individual declared rule conditions cannot access the workflow's activity context, because the RuleExecution object that is ...Show All
