I've managed to avoid the IM thing

WTF | :WTF:

Why? It's really convenient. I wouldn't have known about this little fiasco here had not James alerted me via IM.

Check my post count now, and tomorrow. Then ask yourself, if this man had IM, would he get any work done at all ? Plus work frowns on it.

No need. You're number two on the Most Active list.

I was number one for a long time, but Nish overtook me. I don't think he posts much anymore though, so maybe I might find my fortunes taking a turn for the better.....

2:30 pm. By the time I am on my PC at home working into the night, most CPians are asleep. I'm thinking of keeping Sonork running though. I am MeanManOz on Sonork ( a long story ).

How sad...don't you hate the fact that we actually have to sleep.

Yes, I often think about how much more productive I could be if I could just stay up and work. I only get 2-3 hours most nights for my own projects.....

I think Nish would have an answer for that one.

*grin* Yes, I liked that, too. I hope he gets it together and looks up regular expressions in MSDN, it's gotta be easier than string mashing in C++.

how to remove non-numeric content?

Hello, I am having problem adding a new excel worksheet using C#. I am able to acquire the first worksheet no problem, but when I try to add a new worksheet, the code bombs out with a COM exception. Here is what I have:

m_Excel.Worksheets.Add(null, null, 1, Excel.XlSheetType.xlWorksheet);

In vb, this function is easy because it has default parameters, so you can just call Worksheets.Add, however, in C# this is not the case. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you're getting a COM Exception, then I'm going to guess that you aren't using the OfficeXP Primary Interop Assemblies.

You should use these for any Office XP work.

in C# default parameters are handled differently, if you problem is because of default parameters

try

<br />
Object o = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;<br />
m_Excel.Worksheets.Add(ref o,ref o,1,Excel.XLSheetType.xlWorksheet);<br />

Can we make the progress bar a solid line instead of one composed of squares? Also, how can I make text appear, like the progress percentage?

It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a very long time to say, and to listen to.

The Standard Progress Bar sucks. Use this one instead:

Enhanced Progress Bar[^]

I am writing a wizard that will execute a process to generate some source code files. As a part of that wizard, I want to have the user navigate to a directory so that I can save the source files and a project file in that directory. The only file dialog I see in the Windows Forms toolbox collection is FileSaveDialog and FileOpenDialog. When I use these dialog boxes (even with VerifyFileExists set to false) the dialog requires clicking on a file.

Any suggestions on how to do a dialog that only requires a browse to a directory WITHOUT using the old COMM dialog box?

There isn't one...You just have to use the SHBrowseForFolder API Call. There is no way around it.

There is nothing premade, but nothing to stop you from creating your own (why you would is beyond me though; SHBrowseForFolder is far better than anything I could whip up)

I know that the Ghengis team is trying to implement a wrapper for SHBrowseForFolder...but I haven't been able to get it to work...

Well I'd like to use this control, however it keeps crapping out. (sigh)
It is also way to unweildly to use, IMHO. (though not as unweildly as a WinAPI call)

An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in folderbrowser.dll

Additional information: Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.

Has anyone experienced that DataRow.Rows.InsertAt() doesn't.

As in, it appears to append, not insert anything?

Never mind. After doing a google search on Rows.InsertAt, I found similar problems posted on the forum at dotnet247.com. I needed to call AcceptChanges(). Of course, then (as noted on the posts), the stupid thing creates an empty row at the top of the list. Christ, can't MS program things right???

"I dont have a life, I have a program."

How do I get version info of my Windows Forms App to display it in about box.
I know there is this [assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.0.*")]
in my Assemblyinfo.cs. Now what? Confused | :confused:

Sorry for such a simple stuff, but .... you know. Smile | :)
