• Windows Forms execute click button's event as a reguler method

  I need to execute click button's event from other method. I have a click method where is a lot of database instructions, but from another part of my program I need to execute same procedure, so, Can I call Click button's method as a normal procedure. I try : button1.Click(this, EventArgs.Empty); but I get an error that Click only must appear at left side..... ok, how can I call it thanks in advance for your help, Edward Yes, you can use the button.PerformClick() method to invoke the click event of your button, and this works fine. But i recommend to you to extract all the logic of "button1.Click" to another method. Then you can to call this method from another methods or objects events such as ...Show All

• Visual Basic Common Language runtime detected an invalid program

  We have developed a Window Application in VB.NET (Framework 1.1) with Back-End MSDE and with Crystal Reports. We haven’t got any issue as long as we run the application in our development machine.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF for high troughput scenarios?

  Hi, I was wondering if WCF is usable in scenarios where high throughput has to be achieved . For example a financial market data service that broadcasts market data via UDP (roughly 10k messages/sec). It's important that packets are as small as possible .. can this be achieved with WCF or is there always a high message size overhead Thanks, Tom I think that's not really what I was looking for. My question is targeted more on the message size and throughput efficiency. How much of an overhead in bytes does WPF add to messages in its most optimized way I need data broadcasted via UDP, reliablity is not really an issue, but it's a lot of data and minimizing the latency is essential. Thanks, Tom ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to handle errors?

  Hello, If some programming state is not okay (like finding that a SerialPort is not open prior to sending data) I would like to show some error message. I would like to handle all error messages-displaying in a central place by a single function. How do I achieve this (As a newby in C#, in Borland C++ I was used to use a global string for storing the error messgae which is displayed when all nested functions return false). But C# does not allow a global string( ), or what other mechanism is usually applied for this purpose All tips and hints are welcome. regards, Henk Henk You can certainly have global variables in C# it's just that the scoping rules are ...Show All

• .NET Development Multiple elements in a configuration section

  Hello All, I would like to know whether it is possible to have multiple configuration elements with the same name within a custom section. Changing the element name to say "operation1" instead of "operation" (see sample file below) seems to work but i would like to use the same element name.

I have already implemented custom classes inherting from ConfigurationSection,ConfigurationElement and ConfigurationElementCollection to implement the stuff below.

• Visual Studio Cannot create a new Store

  Creating a new Store object in code is not working for me on the June CTP. I'm passing the type of a DomainModel class into the constructor, and it is giving an exception: Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.DomainDataNotFoundException was unhandled by user code Message="Domain object with identity Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Diagrams.Diagram was not found in directory." Source="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Modeling.Sdk" It seems that it is looking for the Diagram class and not finding it. Passing the Diagram type directly does not help (it is rejected as not a DomainModel). I can see that the Diagram type is included in the types returned from GetGeneratedDomainModelTypes.
