Is there any way to change the position of the help panel in a PropertyGrid in code?

Sorry, I don't think so. If you use Reflector[^] to view the source for the PropertyGrid you can see that the private method OnLayoutInternal positions the help panel (this is called doccomment in OnLayoutInternal).
The best you can do is hide it. You may be able to request such a feature from a third-part vendor (such as SmartPropertyGrid[^]).
Take care,
Tom

How do you hide it? I have a situation where I want a fairly simple PropertyGrid, but I do not want the help panel to display.
Thanks,
John

As Tom said, the MS PropertyGrid can't do it. However, Smart PropertyGrid.Net can definitely position the comments area the way you want (some of my customers wrote a piece of code so that the size is adaptable to the height of the comments).

Hi,
I wrote a web service which needs to return a list of string objects. I tried using string[] as my return value and couldn't get that to work. I then tried using an ArrayList and couldn't get that to work either. I read some stuff on it and in my program which uses the web service I could get my string values like this:
Object[] items = GetItems();
I then cast my items back to strings.
This is OK but how can I get the actual ArrayList back?
ArrayList items = GetItems();
Thanks

Hm.
I stopped using ArrayList a while back when generic lists came.
For instance: List<string> items.
I'f my memory hasen't failed me completely, you should only have to set the method returnvalue to ArrayList, like public ArrayList GetItems(); and return your ArrayList in a normal fashion.
Have you tried using generic lists?

No I will give that a try thanks

Passing back ArrayList works fine if the web service is in the same project as the calling code but doesn't work if I've built a separate application to call the method passing it back.
I have to get the result by assigning it as Object[].
If I use List<string> as my return type, in my calling application it only works if I assign the return value to string[]. This works fine but I can't help thinking that my calling application should be using the actual return type.
Am I missing something?
This is the sample response from the web service:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: length
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ArrayOfString xmlns="MyWebService">
<string>string</string>
<string>string</string>
</ArrayOfString>
So the web service is expecting to be able to send back "ArrayOfString". Why can I not assign the return value to List<string>?

This question has been asked a number of times already, have you searched the forums? A quick google search for "C# run another program" reveals the info you need.

Would it have hurt you to have given an informative reply. For sure he could have googled it... you obviously did to know for sure that it was there... Could you not have at least put a link to the first result?

Darn the luck. I was going to post a similar reply but then I thought maybe I shouldn't. You must be a sick individual, and yes it takes one to know one.

He did give him the information he needed. He told the man who to find the information on his own. Judah didn't ahve to Google this to find out if there was any info on it out there. It's a question that's been asked and answered a couple of million times already!
Like Judah said, answering a simple question directly only serves to answer that single question. Teaching him how to find his own answers answers many, many more questions than just the one.

Look at the System.Diagnostics.Process class, it might be just what you're looking for.

I saved you from yourself, you should never post programming questions in the lounge. Your question still makes no sense, and you should consider being more polite in how you ask it.
