Hi,
Can anybody help me to get Icon details like its name, target path, working directory whenever it is double-clicked to run the application. This is be using Windows API or in C#.
I have already used IShellLink Interface but its been hard-coded for icon name. Suppose the user changes desktop icon name then also coding should be able to change its working directory. This can be done if I can check the existence of the icon.
Regards.
Chilly

I think you are talking more about shortcuts?? You mean those on the desktop?
If you want to enumerate the links on the desktop:
Directory.GetFiles(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop), "*.lnk");
Now, shortcuts are .ln; files and inside them you'd find the path to the program they excute. Read them using as FileStream, then use a Regex to find the text of the exe file, and/or anyother details you want.

If you're using VS2005 (Any edition) you might want to setup the columns of the datagridview by hand. The control allows different kinds of columns to be setup (Checkbox,TextBox,ComboBox,Button,...) [^]
Locking a row in a datatable is not possible I'm afraid.
Instead you can use a Transaction on the database connection to lock rows and update them without allowing other clients to update the same rows. If I'm not mistaken, the DataTableAdapters to this automatically

Hi
I am developing Windows Mobile Application, I need a timer to call the callback method , I have used the code below, it worked fine for Windows Application, but device application causing problem.
timer = new System.Threading.Timer(new TimerCallback(OnNextMinute), null,
Timeout.Infinite, Timeout.Infinite);
StartTimer();
}
const long TIMER_INTERVAL = 1000L;
private void StartTimer()
{
// set the timer to trigger an event every 30 seconds
timer.Change(0, TIMER_INTERVAL);
}
public void OnNextMinute(object state)
{
//calling method here
}
Please let me know any other way to use timer in Windows Mobile.

What are your problems exactly?
I even wonder how it worked on windows!! Why the Timeout.Infinite?? If you don't want to start the timer immediately, use -1 instead!! Also, why not setting the interval directly -again Timeout.Infinite!!- instead of assigning it to a constant at runtime??

I couldn't find any such event in the documentation. Can you show us the actual event and the associated documentation?
|
|
|
|

The window message sent when a window is minimized is WM_SIZE, so I assume that the equivalent is the Resize event. Check the WindowState property to see if the form is minimized.
The documentation for Form.MinimizeBox confirms that it's the Resize event.

Um. Give each control a different name?
How are you creating the controls? It should be a simple as setting the .Name property for each control.

then you'll need to post a snippet of your code for us to help you further.
Is this an ASP.NET app or a Windows Form application?

Then you should have posted it in ASP .Net forum[^]
abdelhameed81 wrote: hw can i post a snippet i did not do that before
A code snippet is a small part of your code that you think it could be the cause of your problem.
To post a snippet:
1- Select the code from your project editor -ie. your Visual Studio IDE-
2- Copy to clipborad -ie. press Ctrl + C-
3- Make a post or a reply here
4- Paste the code -ie. press Ctrl+V-
5- Reselct the code you've just pasted
6- Click on the pre button below the edit control in which you are writing. This will give it unique background and rserve tabs and spaces.
7- If the code is missing some brackets -ie. like < or > - remove the pre tags and click on "Ignore HTML tags..." checkbox below.
