Hi,
I am trying to make a user control which gives the look of a postage stamp (with jagged edges). I am doing this by overloading the OnPaint event and drawing in it. But despite specifying the pen color as transparent, the control still doesnt appear see thru where I draw the shape. I have even tried specifying the color as black and setting the container forms transparencyKey property to black. Here is the code i am putting into the OnPaint Event:
Dim graphics As Graphics = e.Graphics
Dim penWidth As Integer = 30
Dim pen As Pen = New Pen(Color.Transparent, 30)
Dim fontHeight As Integer = 10
Dim font As Font = New Font("Arial", fontHeight)
'Dim brush As SolidBrush = New SolidBrush(BackgroundColor)
'Fetch the heights and widths
Dim controlHeight As Integer = Me.Size.Height
Dim controlWidth As Integer = Me.Size.Width
Dim initialHeight As Integer = 0
Dim initialWidth As Integer = 0
Dim goLeft As Boolean = False
'Start drawing a jagged edge from the top left corner to the bottom left
While controlHeight >= 0
If goLeft = True Then
graphics.DrawLine(pen, initialHeight, initialWidth, initialHeight + 10, initialWidth + 10)
'Set them to the new starting point
initialHeight = initialHeight + 10
initialWidth = initialWidth + 10
'Now set goleft to false
goLeft = False
Else
graphics.DrawLine(pen, initialHeight, initialWidth, initialHeight + 10, initialWidth - 10)
'Set them to the new starting point
initialHeight = initialHeight + 10
initialWidth = initialWidth - 10
'Now set goleft to false
goLeft = True
End If
'Dencrement the counter
controlHeight = controlHeight - 10
End While
Thanks in advance for any help!

If you're trying to do what I think you're trying it might be best to you the region methode
just create a regionpath and set the region of you're usercontrol to it
you're regionpath would be the same as you're path you draw for the jagged edge (so you can use that code)
also this will make sure that when you're user clicks just outside of the edge it will not fire the onclick of you're usercontrol and you will not have to worry about seeing the usercontrol behind you're jagged edge
hope this helps

i am facing a problem in two dimensional array, i found the substitute of two dimensional array.i.e list class.
i was trying to add the items in the following manner.
dim s as new list(type of string)
s.add("svsfv","ssfvs")
but it takes one parameter .
is there any way to accomplish it using two paramaters, or any alternative ?

A two dimensional array is created via a list of lists, assuming you want to create it using dynamic containers, instead of a 2D array.
list(type of list(type of string ) )

Create lists of strings, and then add them to the main list that I showed you how to create above. A 2D array is probably a lot simpler, if you want it to be fixed size.

list containe value and key parameters.
and i want to pass both the paraeters at rutime.(both are dynamic).
in that case how i will get to know the key name?

In that case, what you really want is a dictionary, which is an associative container.
If you don't know the key name, why are you looking up a value based on that key ? You can only look up a value where you know the key or index. You can iterate over all keys in a dictionary, but you need some way of knowing which one you wanted.

Your code didn't create a two dimensional array. You created an instance of a List, which is not an array, but a collection.
To create a 2 dimensional array, it's simple:
Dim myArray(10, 50) As String
Creates an array of 10 rows, with 50 columns each.
I seriously suggest picking up a book or two on VB.NET for beginners. This is a concept that's usually covered in week 2 of any VB.NET 101 course.

I have a solution that has around 150 forms. I need to make another paralell version that will change code in just around 5 forms. I want to be able to "branch" the original solution and share most of the forms and just change some.
I've tried different approachs: "linking" the files to the new project. Inheriting the original project into the new one ... nothing works smoothly.
Any thougths.
Thanks.

I think you want one solution with three projects:
- app1 (EXE file)
- app2 (EXE file)
- whatever is common to both (a class library, hence DLL file)

Thanks for your response.
This is pretty much what I'm looking for, but I don't know how to "build" the solution in Visual Studio 2005: 2 or 3 projects, how to compile, how to make reference to shared components, what namespace to use, etc, ...

Are you familiar with Visual Studio at all ?
if not, you need to read up on it, and start with a little Windows app,
"Hello World" would be fine (say 20 lines of code).
Then, inside the same solution, create a "Class library" called "Adder" pretty much
the same way; make it a class that holds a static method to add two numbers
(resulting in a DLL), which you can not "run" nor "debug" on its own.
Now go back to "hello world" and call your latest class to add two numbers; it will
fail to compile until you "add a reference" telling where "Hello World" can find the "Adder"
class, that's a reference to Adder.dll
It now should run fine; you have made two projects, one EXE one DLL.
Thats the technique; now you master this, you may start turning to your actual code
(probably in another solution).
You should read up on Visual Studio; all the above is basic information that you
will need on a dayly basis. Look around, read the Visual Help; if you dont understand
any of it, go find a book on Visual Studio; if you feel you understand, but get stuck
on a very particular issue, ask on a forum like this one.

I've been successfully developing in VS2005 for more than a year. I've never needed to use a DLL, I'm sorry if my question seemed too basic ...
Anyway, thank you very much your response has been very helpfull.

OK,
some more details:
- when you add a new project, you get a choice of different templates; use "Windows
application" for normal stuff (EXE), or "Class library" for callable code in a DLL.
- when a project wants to refer to the output of another library project (a DLL),
you must add a reference to said DLL into the Solution Pane so the calling project
knows where to find it.
- the solution has a "build order" and a "dependency graph" but these get adjusted
automatically; dont worry.
That should put you on track.

Hello,
I have a datagridview that has a combo box column with some items in it.
I click the item in the combo box and based on what the user has clicked on to, it should EndEdit. However, i have to click on another cell for the edit to complete.
I have tried using EndEdit thinking that it should end the edit in that combo box cell. However, the customer would like to end the edit in the cell as soon as they click an item.
I have posted the code for the selected_item event for the comb box, if this is helpful.
Private Sub dgvPendingOrders_EditingControlShowing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewEditingControlShowingEventArgs) Handles dgvPendingOrders.EditingControlShowing<br />
<br />
If TypeOf e.Control Is DataGridViewComboBoxEditingControl Then<br />
Me.dgvPendingCbo = DirectCast(e.Control, DataGridViewComboBoxEditingControl)<br />
End If<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
Private Sub dgvPendingCbo_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dgvPendingCbo.SelectedIndexChanged<br />
Try<br />
'Do something here<br />
'End the edit<br />
End If<br />
Catch ex As Exception<br />
MsgBox(ex.Message)<br />
End Try<br />
End Sub
Many thanks for any help,
Steve

You should be able to end the edit in the SelectedIndexChanged event of the ComboBox

Hi
I am just getting back into programming for a specific application in my small business. My skills are reasonable, but I'd appreciate actual code examples where possible so I can convert it. I would (for simplicity) like to use an Excel speadsheet merely as a data base for each date.
How do I have a DateTimePicker (or other similar control):
1/ Attempt to save as yyyy/mm/dd (sql format using Try)
2/ If it exists ask "yyyy/mm/dd" already exists. Do you wish..."
3/ When I choose a date, it attempts to load (Try) a file of that date "yyyy/mm/dd", other wise catches and loads a blank. (I think I can do the last bit sort of ok)
