To do this would either require listening to the Window's message pump and syphonining off the message to your exception window or doing a special object that derives from Form that has this behavior. Neither or which are appealing at all and I highly recommend you do not go down this road.
Instead you should rethink your UI design. Having a modal dialog for all except one dialog means you should consider doing something else with either if not both dialogs since they both seem to violate UI design expectations.

One bit of a messy way of solving this is to trap the 'Activated' event in all the non-"modal" forms. Whenever the event is received, call one of the "modal" forms' BringToFront method.

what do you guys think about creating another standalone application which I start and hide at startup of my application, and then send a message to it telling it to display and go topmost when i open my modal dialog box? And then define some custom messages to handle the interaction? All I want to drag and drop is some simple text strings so should not be a problem between different applications...
please give an opinion of you think its a stupid /hard to realize/other idea.

hey
workin on a program that will change what i type into textBox1 then change it into something else in textBox2, as a encryption so to say.
code:
string message;
textBox1.Text = message;
message.ToLower();
for (int nChar = 0; nChar < message.Length; nChar += 1)
{
char lNS = message[nChar];
}
am i doing this right?
or can someone explain to me the steps, it still isn't very clear to me.

Looks like you've got textBox1.Text = message swapped around:
message = textBox1.Text;
in the end, you'll want to add the characters back to a string:
result += lNS;
(where result is a string)
and then assign it to your second text box:
textBox2.Text = result;

My project contains 2 groupboxes each with a heavy custom control inside. I can doublebuffer the mainform by calling SetStyle in the constructor, but the style change doesn't propagate to the groupbox, and since SetStyle is protected I can't call do Gb.SetStyle(...) within my forms constructor. The setsyle message does propagate to panels, but the border is different, and even with a label stuck overtop doesn't look as astheticly pleasing. Is there any way I can force the gb to be double buffered?
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint | ControlStyles.UserPaint | ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer,true);
|
|
|
|
|
Followup, I've tried deriving a new class from System.Windows.Forms.GroupBox and doing SetStyle(...) both in the constructor and in a seperate EnableDoubleBuffer() method, both unsuccessfully.

hi to all,
i have an mdi container in a c# win application.
i tried to put a control (LinkLabel) on my mdi container, when i open an mdi child i always have my LinkLabel on top (it is always visible in my mdi child).

2 - if yes, how can i do it without having the problem above
best regards and thanks in advance

Hello,
Is there a way of colouring specific rows in DataGrid? I don't allow user to add any rows, so number of rows does not change, and I want to set the BackColour for a row (1 for example) to something else. Any ideas?
Thank you.

If you type 'DataGrid color' into that little search field at the top right beneath the little green CodeProject guy you will get an article explaining everything you need.

hi there,
today i realized a really strange behaviour of windows services.
i made a windows service that regularly checks some network services.
i wrote a class to perform these checks. it works perfectly when i wrap
it into a userspace program (command line).
but the same piece of code always refuses to connect when wrapped into
a windows service. is there something i have to obey when doing
network programming with windows services?
thanks,
j.

First what user account is your service running under?
Local System accounts will not have access to network resources. The easy solution is to go to the services and set the service to run under your account. Then it would have the same rights you have.

i tried my account (is in domain admin group),tried local system account (ok,now i know that this definitely doesn´t work  and Domain Administrator Account, it´s all the same. now i just run the networking stuff wrapped in a commandline tool with task scheduler, but a windows service would my favourite choice...
thanks though

Can you help me? I need some information to use c# parallel port? 'cause I haven't found nothing in Net... Thx
|
|
|
|
|
There is nothing in the .NET BCL to talk to the parallel port directly. You have to use a 3rd party library to do this, such as http://www.logix4u.net/[^].

You should use this library...
I can't remember what it's called. I used it some while ago for some parallel port, C# action.
Uh.... If I remember i'll post it.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply Grundyfoot, but there are a couple of concerns:
o Actually I want to learn the technique myself, so don't want to use any third party libraries...
o Even If I go for a 3rd party library, The money they ask for is beyond my budget...
Thanks for your help anyway.
