I'm only telling you the truth. You're never going to get answers to your questions if you keep asking them like you are. Learn from it and move on.

What everyone is trying to say is that programming's main requirement is you have a strong ability to do research. Without it, your career ends shortly after it begins because you haven't kept up on the technology changes whizzing by. For instance, everything your'e asking right now is easily solved with about 5 minutes worth of work using Google and a little experimentation. If you're stuck using a TextBox, you dig around for documentation and examples on the TextBox. If you don't konw how to use a ToolTip control, you Google the documentation, examples, and create your own little projects to test what you think you know and what you suspect. This process NEVER ends in this business. If you can't teach yourself, you're in the wrong line of work.

Go to google, type in these keywords: .net linux

In general, for most of the answers in c#, go first to msdn website and search for what you are looking for. Microsoft has done such an awesome job in organizing the library and made it very easy to understand. If its not there, search in google.

I hope this helps you,

Prateek
p.s. I'm also a beginner, and believe me between msdn and google, most of my questions are answered.

Re: tooltip for textbox

Question in microsoft word library

i want to show a tool tip for the textbox in the Textchanged Event.

CONDITION
the tooltip must be displayed only if the text box types the correct data

Seems pretty straightforward. You already know to use the textchanged event. Use a ToolTip[^] to display the tooltip on the text box. In the textchanged event, just check that the type of data correct.

I guess you probably are. Have you tried going into word and recording a macro doing what you want, then examining the macro?

Are you asking us to do your homework questions by any chance?

Have you tried Google?[^]

Well don't ask questions so broad and basic then. Do you expect an expert to write you an detailed analysis of the complexities of interop every time you demand it?

You should use Google. Read all the articles and documentation you can find. Absorb and understand it. When you have a specific question, or when you have exhausted Google and have something you still don't understand, then ask specific questions. It helps to say what you have done already. E.g. "I've read this (link) article on MSDN, and I don't understand why it says 'this', I've tried Googling 'keywords' but I can't find an explanation, can anyone explain it". interop is a massive topic, and I'm sure you'll be able to find an answer to "what is interop" quite easily if you just put in a little bit of effort yourself. You'll find people here are more willing to help if you have shown that you are not lazy and are prepared to make the effort to learn when you need to rather than automatically running to others with simple questions.

What you are doing is showing that you are too lazy to the hard work of using google to find some articles and to read them thoroughly, what you are asking for us for someone here to do the hard work for you.

Do yourself a favour, buy a C# book, read it, read it again, then come back to ask real questions.

Hi,
I have created a program and now I would like to use clickonce to have it setup on other machines.
Obviously, a number of the machines where this application should be installed on does not have .net 3.5

Questions:

1) How do I add .net 3.5 to the setup?
2) There are xml files used in this application. Do I need to add them to the setup too or does the setup automatically add them?

Thanks

1) On the publish tab in the project properties. Click "prerequisites" and tick the required framework. You've then got several options as to where the framework will be downloaded from. (If you choose, "same location as my app" it will automatically copy the framework installers to the publish directory.

When you run the apps setup.exe, it will first check for the prereqs and kick off the installer if required.

2) Also on the publish tab. Click "Application Files" and make sure your xml files are set to be included.
