if memory serves, you can feed the image into a bitmap object, and set the trancparecy there, they do what you want with it. Smile | :)

Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(myImage);
bmp.MakeTransparent(Color.Green);

im not sure if that will work, i think it should, else if you usingthe Toolbar class yourself, you can set the TransparentColor property of the ImageList to the green color.

Uh I don't know becouse I have this:

<br />
CommandBarButton btn;<br />
Command          cmd;<br />
<br />
cmd=applicationObject.Commands.AddNamedCommand<br />
  (addInInstance, "MyCmd","Text","Tooltip",<br />
  false,1,  // Here i use bitmap from dll file "[TARGETDIR]\1033\Bitmaps.dll" with ID 1<br />
  ref contextGUIDS,<br />
  (int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported+<br />
  (int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled);<br />
<br />
btn=MyCmd.AddControl(cmdBar,1) as CommandBarButton;<br />
        <br />

I think that I mustn't change picture to be transparent after I create this command.
Maybe I can use btn.Picture and btn.Mask but I don't know how to work with IPictureDisp in C# Cry | :((

hmmm, im not sure what to do either, unless you can specify a Image or Bitmap object as the image. as you could load the image from the dll yourself then set the transparecy then add the cammandbutton, but as i said, im not sure myself, and i dont have time at the minute to check it for you, Unsure | :~

in fact, i should be doing homework right now

According to this article, you need to use a green with an RGB value of (0, 254, 0) the green you are using is probably (0, 255, 0).

Oh yes!
With RGB(0,254,0) is it better.

Internet speed is usually refered to as the downstream bandwith, iow the download speed, unless u specify bith upstream and downstream rates.

It is never the sum of both. That would be the maximum throughput of the device.

Hope this helps Smile | :)

Would anybody know how to do an update from a datagrid in ASP/C#?

I have it all the way to the update command, but can't find and good tutorials to Get it any further. I'm going to need to do a SQL statement, but I don't know how to GET the values back from the Grid.

OK, I have been play with this on and off all day and can not make it work.

How do I define an instance of of a performance counter at runtime?

I have the counter defined in the server explorer and can use the counter it's self, but I wish to add intances of the counter, in the same way as, for example, 'Processor/% Idle Time' has.

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks

Stephen

Drag it from the Server Explorer onto your form. That will give you a control to work with.

I can get a normal performance counter to work no problem, what I cant get to work is the InstanceName property.

If I try to access one of the existing performance counters that has multible instances that works, but I can not create my own.

Bassically I have this system that can load plug-in modules at run time. I have a custom counter called 'Messages Dispatched' now under that I want to create an instance for each plugin i.e. 'E-Mail', 'SMS' etc, just like under PRocessors you can see an instance of each processor.

The documentation said to pass the instance name in the constructor to ProcessCount but that does not work for me. The app starts and perfmon shows no instances, just the root performance count.

Thanks
