No worries.

I use a few different forums, and here on CodeProject ppls seems to be more anal about style and format
than other places.

One common response you see here alot is, "Did you Google it???". I'm thinking, either Yes they did Google it
and were led here, or No they didn't and don't wanna spend alot of time search through Google results. This is
an answer forum and when you ask a question you're hoping for a direct answer. Know what I mean?

I see your point, but unlike other forums, the majority of users here want to improve the abilities of the people who ask the questions (Providing they are willing to learn). Nobody is going to get better if all they have to do is ask somebody else for the answer then go and copy/paste the code.

People who are not willing to attempt something themselves are people who quite frankly shouldn't even consider being programmers. Too many people think it's easy money and thus cause problems for the whole industry.

It gets very annoying when a question appears where the first result of a google search for their subject line provides all the information they could possibly need. That's how you know when you have a lazy unwilling 'Programmer' and they're the type who need to be shot down (not literally).

I actually spend a fair bit of time on here trying to help people, and am more than happy to help someone who is struggling with a new concept but has actually tried to do it for themselves first.

Anyway, that's my opinion, and I am sure it's not to everyone's liking, but who would complain? A willing learner? I think not

Ya, I agree with you. Too many people want the quick & easy and not have to work for it.

Yea I know, but the experience has been that they really haven't googled it and that giving the first link from google makes them say "omg thanks man!"
Which is just a waste of everyone's time really..

And then there is also Liquid Nitrogen[^] Smile | :)

True, but it even says in the FAQs/Stickies to place code in the relevant tags, otherwise most people won't even bother to read it.

From some of the posts, it is pretty obvious the OP hasn't even been bothered to Google it (in whcih case why should we? Or, often, they just want a peice of code they can copy and paste (in which case I want commision Smile | :)

).

Generally I want to help people improve their knowledge, but poor posts take up time and effort to read, and put people off helping.

Giving you the answer is not going to help you in the long run. Have you attempted anything yourself, do you even know what a 'COX' algorithm is? I don't by the way, so don't expect an answer from me

You need to install SQL Server to deploy the database to.
You could install SQL Server 2008 Compact, but I'm not sure what the licensing is.

How to automatically scroll text up in a richtext box.

Sophronis Mantoles25-Sep-09 3:02

I am using a richText box to display (output) messages to the users of my application.   The box fills up from top down.   When messages accumulate they do not get pushed up.   Here is some of my code.

<pre><code>private void btnPowerOn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
            {
                  // init equipment set current limits etc
                  richTextBox1.Focus();
                  richTextBox1.Text = richTextBox1.Text + "Initializing Equipment.. \n";
                  InitEquipment(); // initialize Equipment
                  richTextBox1.Focus();
                  richTextBox1.Text = richTextBox1.Text + "Turning Power Supply and Current Source on.. \n";
                  TE.PowerSupply.TurnOutputOn(strPowerSupplyName);
                  TE.CurrentSource.TurnOutputOn(strCurrentSourceName);
                  // checking to find which UUT's are enabled
                  WhichUUTChecked();
            }</code></pre>

The richTextBox gets called a few times. The richTextBox1.Focus() command does not seem to work they way I expect it.
Any hints appreciated.

Use richTextBox1.AppendText("Your text here") instead of richTextBox1.Text = richTextBox1.Text + "Your text here"

Hi,
I think you want the textbox to scroll to the bottom line after adding new text. Make a zero length selection at the end of the text and then use the ScrollToCaret method.
e.g.

this.ResultTextBox.SelectionStart = this.ResultTextBox.TextLength;
this.ResultTextBox.SelectionLength = 0;
this.ResultTextBox.ScrollToCaret();

That's for a normal TextBox but I assume it's ok for the RichTextBox too.

Alan.

Use Ctrl+Left/Right to switch messages, Ctrl+Up/Down to switch threads, Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right to switch pages.
