Determining Enter events cause Member 197725229-Aug-05 3:39 Member 1977252 29-Aug-05 3:39  I have a custom control. When focus is given to this control, the Enter event is triggered. Is there any way to determine what caused focus to come to this control (Tabbed in, Shift-tabbed in, mouse click)? My control has various items on it. Depending on what caused my control to gain focus, I'd like to highlight one of them. For example, if the user clicks on an item, that item will be highlighted. If the user tabbed in from another control, then the "first" item will be highlighted, but if it was a shift-tab, then the "last" item will be highlighted. I can watch mouse events to figure out what was clicked on, of course, but what about when the user uses tab or shift-tab to give my control focus? Is there any way of obtaining this information? Thanks for any help. -- Scott Re: Determining Enter events cause Dave Kreskowiak29-Aug-05 4:50 Dave Kreskowiak 29-Aug-05 4:50  AFAIK, there's no facility to determine what caused the control to get the focus.

Thanks Re: Documentation Dario Solera29-Aug-05 4:09 Dario Solera 29-Aug-05 4:09  If you need to write the CODE documentation, you should use XML Doc, that is integrated in the C# compiler. Search in CP, some articles are available about that topic. [ITA] Tozzi ha ragione: Gaia si sta liberando di noi.

Re: help Daniel Turini29-Aug-05 1:38 Daniel Turini 29-Aug-05 1:38  Use the Directory.Exists[^] method. I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now! Re: help SeMartens29-Aug-05 1:38 SeMartens 29-Aug-05 1:38  Hi, if you want to check if a specified path exists you can use the following function: System.IO.Directory.Exists(sMyPath)) This return a bool, true if the path exists, otherwise false. Regards Sebastian Html to DataTable or DataGrid Canastro29-Aug-05 1:03 Canastro 29-Aug-05 1:03  Hi I'm trying to get information form an html file, then replacing some placeholders with values, then printing them to screen and generating a DataTable (or a DataGrid) with all the information. I already managed to read from the file, replacing and printing. The only thing missing is the DataTable Generic generator. Anyone can help? Have anyone ever done something like this? Thanks Nelson TabControl BackColor - can it be done and how? Let's settle it once and for all misterbear29-Aug-05 0:33 misterbear 29-Aug-05 0:33  Did anyone override the TabControl in a good way to be able to give it a custom background color? I have a specific background color used in my entire application so of course I want the tab control to be this color as well, but it doesn't seem to be easy to accomplish. Did anyone do it in .NET? Also what is the reason it is restricted so much by windows? I mean it cannot be so hard to allow for a tab control to have a different background color after all... regards, Bjorn Re: TabControl BackColor - can it be done and how?

The DrawItem event is only received for each tab as far as I can see... /Bjorn Dataview help! pokabot29-Aug-05 0:19 pokabot 29-Aug-05 0:19  Hi Im writing an app keep notes on poker players but having a little difficulty with dataview. Im loading an xml file containing the data into a dataset, the xml file looks like this: <table> <Player> <Alias></Alias> <Category></Category> <Notes> <Hand></Hand> <Bet></Bet> <Position></Position> <Blinds></Blinds> <Stack></Stack> </Notes> </Player> </Table> Im then creating a dataview object using the "Player" table. I then set the row filter to return all rows matching an "Alias". Then display the results in a datadrid. This all works fine but what i actually want is to only show and edit the nested "Notes" tables for each player as the Alias will not need to change and there only needs to be one instance of the players category. You can get to the notes table by expanding the nodes on the datagrid but thats not how i want it to look plus by only showing the notes table the user wont have to enter the alias and category when greating a new entry. Any help would be great as to how i can achieve this, could it be solved by writing the xml file a little different? -- modified at 6:19 Monday 29th August, 2005 Problem related to Tablet PC deldeep28-Aug-05 23:55 deldeep 28-Aug-05 23:55  Hi! All, I m developing a windows application in c#, my question is this how can we fix a size of a form so that it can be fit automatically on tablet PC and my Personal Computer. I mean both of them differ by screen size , so how can i fix a size of my application form, so that it should run on both successfully.

Application version rmedo28-Aug-05 23:47 rmedo 28-Aug-05 23:47  Hi all, I'm making medical system and every 6 months we make new features within our system. I want to make class that will check on the system version on the client PC, So I want to know if there is standard to store application version in the system I though that we can store it in the registry or in any file or as a static variable within global class Re: Application version Guffa28-Aug-05 23:51 Guffa 28-Aug-05 23:51  Each executable file (exe's and dll's) have a version property. You can use that to keep track of the version of each of the files. --- b { font-weight: normal; } Re: Application version rmedo28-Aug-05 23:54 rmedo 28-Aug-05 23:54  thanks for your reply but where can i find this property Re: Application version Daniel Turini29-Aug-05 1:45 Daniel Turini 29-Aug-05 1:45  Check your AssemblyInfo.cs file to set the version. To retrieve the version of the main applicatione executable, use Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().GetName().Version One of the advantages of storing the version on the executable itself is that you can always be sure that the version information will be present, it's readable and correct (e.g., one can always delete/write registry entries outside your application and corrupt it). I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now! Re: Application version rmedo29-Aug-05 3:15 rmedo 29-Aug-05 3:15  Thanks for your response i prefer to save my system version in AssemblyInfo.cs and check for it in any class, if you have better idea please tell me Re: Application version Dave Kreskowiak29-Aug-05 4:42 Dave Kreskowiak 29-Aug-05 4:42  That's exactly what Daniel just told you. Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().GetName().Version can be used in any class to get the current version of the .EXE.

There is no place else that this information is stored. It's either use the Assembly class, or implement your own version system and write your own classes for it. You could make something that automatically creates a Major, Minor, and revision number for your application, but it's not a good idea. You're better off managing it manually so you don't run into any mysterious versioning issues because some version number changed in a module that you didn't expect.
