hi, got a question:
i have a windows form app. it has a picturebox of a button that says "Search". however i want to be able to support multiple languages. how do i do this?
putting a label on top of a picturebox and making the background transparent doent work. i just get a grayed out area with the new label on the picturebox.
i have a configuration file that allows you to modify certain stuff. i could add a field in here to use a different picturebox instead of the default one. or is there a completely different way to do it?
will having a button with a picture and changing text work? somehow i doubt it.
thanks.

You can have a bitmap without any text and render the text directly on the bitmap before setting it on the button.
Be prepared to handle different length in text though, either by having a bitmap you can stretch, or possible by having it available in different sizes.
Obviously the best option is simply avoid the problem by using text only buttons, but I am aware that in reality stupidity and bad GUI design can't be avoided as too many people with too few skills are allowed to make decissions.

lmoelleb, how would i render the text onto the bitmap?
that's the part i'm having a problem with.
also, if there is a better way to have dynamic text on an image,
i'd love to know how to do it.
thanks for the help!

Good morning to all Programming Gurus...
I need an Advice for sending Data over an LAN.
I've written an Windows-Service to check several Network-Clients if they are Available (Pinging these Clients).
If any Error occurs the service should notify some distributed Clients on the Network.
Can anyone give me an Hint how to distribute these Error??? 
I've already tried to use Sockets but i'm not sure how to format the Object to be sent...
Is there an posibility to use Remoting?
* Can i use an Remotingserver to send Messages?
Or do i have to register an Channel for each Client?
NOTE: The Error is an Serializable Object storing the Information.
THX for your Help...

hey, I'm not sure I understood you completly and I'm also not sure its the best solution, but its something. (after all I'm just a student...)
The best idea, is simply sending them e-mail. you can use SMTP client or simply a "mailto:" process. also SMS is possible to notify the problem, if you have a gateway available.
if you want something you build on your own, you can use a service on the distributed list and send them a message from the checking computer in case of failure.
hope it helps.

Thx for your Suggestion using Mail, but i want to use Mail if there is no Client loged onto the service.
Has anyone out there already tried to convert an Object into an byte[]???
Then i should be able to use Sockets...
|
|
|
|
|
to convert object to byte[] look for a static method in the File class (not sure its name, it converts an object to bytes).
another thing, you can use SMTPclient object to send e-mail.

Hi
I have to add some functionality to a test harness. I have been given the whole solution which includes a web reference that contains classes ending in Wse. When i regenerate reference.cs (this file is generated from a schema related to the web service) it is correct according to the schema however the classes don't have wse functionality nor the Wse appended on to the end of the function name and so there are build errors functionNameWse does not exist in namepace...... as functionNameWse is autogenerated to functionName.
I am using VS2003 and it appears the WSE capability was generated previously using WSE 1.0 - no idea of the service pack though
Does any one know how i can correct this?
Thanks
Dan

Hi Dear All Respected Programmers
I am having problem with following mentioned method when I try to write in C#. following mention method is belonged with VB6 kindly convert it into C#.
Thank you

Text1.Text = (strChecker == "Z") ? "Good" : "Bad";
Its called a Ternary operator I think. But don;t quote me on that!

That is correct. It's called a conditional or a ternary operator.
And you can quote me on that.

Hi all,
I have posted a similar question before... I asked how i could trim a way the last character if it is a ",". And i got loads of ways, thanks.
Now i want to know how to trim away more than one character.
would it work, if i use one of the examples someone gave me, to do it like this...
strName[strName.Length-1] = string.Empty;
But if i make the "Length-1" part where the "-1" is the number of character i want to trim, would this be correct? 
Thank you in advance

Simplest solution I can think of is using SubString method:
strName.SubString(0, strName.Length - 4);

thank you...
i used that example to get rid of one caracter aswell.
so am i understanding this right if i say that the "-4" or "-1" would be the amount of caracter to be left out from the end?

In case the first parameter (startIndex) equals 0, that's true.

Who gave you that example? That is not even close to something that would work.
The indexer property of a string returns a character, so the value of strName[strName.Length-1] is a character value. The property is read only (as strings can not be changed), so you can not give the character a new value. Even if you could, you would not be able to change the length of the string, and you would not be able to put in a string in place of the character.
As you can not change a string, the only way to get a string with a different contents is to create a new string that contains what you want. The SubString method (as suggested by Stefan) does this. The Remove method can also be used:
strName = strName.Remove(strName.Lenght - 4, 4);

I see.
As lmoelleb already pointed out at the time, the code is utter nonsense.
The only scenario where this code might be the useful is if you deliberately want to produce a compiler error. Even then it's hardly the best code, as the same result can be obtained with much simpler code, e.g.:
char c = "";
---
b { font-weight: normal; }

LOL 
So i won't even think of using that piece of code....
Thank yo for your help.

I see you are the one who gave me this example, and this is the one i used...
so i suppose no harm done......
strNum = strNum.SubString(0, strNum.Length - 1);
