<td class="subhead" colspan="2">(?<content>.*?)</td>

where group "content" will contain text "I NEED TO EXTRACT THIS"

or more generaly,

<td(.*?)>(?<content>.*?)</td>

RETester[^] is nice place for testing... Check out Reg Ex Lib, too.

Hi for all

I have nine buttons in my form and I would like how I can include a button's reference in an arraylist. I'll modify the text's value of a some button by this reference. How can I do this?

Thans for all

Alex

Does simply adding the Button object not work? Something like

<br />
class MainForm<br />
{<br />
  private Button b1 = new Button("B1");<br />
  private Button b2 = new Button("B2");<br />
<br />
  ArrayList a = new ArrayList();<br />
<br />
<br />
  public void AddToList()<br />
  {<br />
     a.Add(b1);<br />
     a.add(b2);<br />
  }<br />
<br />
  private void ModifyText()<br />
  {<br />
     foreach(Button b in a)<br />
     {<br />
          b.Text = "Long live Senthil";<br />
     }<br />
  }<br />
}<br />

You might want to try

Cursor myCursor = new Cursor("myCursor.ani");
this.Cursor = myCursor;

datareader is a connected resultset, while the dataset is disconnected.
Have a look on MSDN for more detailed info though.

Cheers,
Simon

registry editing: NullReferenceException driving me crazy...

Hello,

I'm absolutely new to programming, so please don't be too hard on me...

I'm trying to make a simple form application to hide or show hidden files. When I try to run the application I get a "System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
I found many topics related to this problem, but I still cannot figure it out.

Here's the code:

partial class Form1 : Form

{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

private void HideFiles()
{
RegistryKey MyKey = Registry.CurrentUser;
MyKey = MyKey.OpenSubKey(".Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced", true);
MyKey.SetValue("Hidden",2);
MyKey.Close();
}

private void ShowFiles()
{
RegistryKey MyKey;
MyKey = Registry.CurrentUser;
MyKey = MyKey.OpenSubKey(".Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Advanced", true);
MyKey.SetValue("Hidden",1);
MyKey.Close();
}

private void ShowButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ShowFiles();
}

private void HideButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HideFiles();
}

}

NullReferenceException is a very basic exception you get when you declare an object reference but do not assign a value to it (or, in your case, have a method returning null and assigning this null to your reference) and then try to access the non-existing object.

Just debug the code then you'll see where the exception occurrs.
I assume the subkey you're trying to open doesn't exist (it should start with "Software", not ".Software").

Thank you, thank you!!!

The 'dot' did it! Pfff, if I knew that it was that simple...
I presume that once you get a little more experienced, you don't make any more mistakes like that. (I hope...)

Thanks again...

Though I am not much more experienced than you ,I may say, once you started to face with errors , you learn how to deal with them , esp. using debugger (watch is a great tool btw..), understand and comment on errors, than find the appropriate solution..

I am writing an application that allows user login by windows authentication (includes domain and username).
For example:
Username: MYDOMAIN\MyUser
Domain:MYDOMAIN
If this username is valid, application will check for user's role, if user's role is BUILTIN\Users then this user can do their works.
