Form1 aForm = new Form1();
aForm.SetValue(logLU);
Looks like you are creating a new Form1 everytime you set this value.
The new form will have the value, but any existing form will not.
Try making aForm a field instead of a local variable and assigning the value to the field version of aForm.

Thank you for your reply. (Remember newbie)
I think I tried that but had syntax issues. What would the code you recommend look like?
Thanx again!

At the top of your code define the form.
private Form1 aForm ;
Where you are going to open the form:
aForm = new Form1 ( ) ;
Do some stuff here...
When you want to return the value to the form:
aForm.SetValue ( logLU ) ;
When you are done with the form, dispose of it.

I end up with the same result. Although I had to do the following because the use of private generated an invlaid expression term 'private' error.
namespace DMV_Test_1
{
public partial class Transporter
{
public static void ConnectToDMV(string TranRec)
{
Form1 aForm;
Thanx for the suggestion.

You need to put it here, outside of any method. Then it will be available anywhere in the class.
namespace DMV_Test_1
{
public partial class Transporter
{
Form1 aForm;
public static void ConnectToDMV(string TranRec)
{
|
|
|
|
|
When I did that I got the following error on the two instances of aForm
An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property
aForm = new Form1();
aForm.SetValue(logLU);
Thanx for the suggestion.

Hi,
Change your method to return the value directly
public static void ConnectToDMV(string TranRec)
public static string ConnectToDMV(string TranRec)

Tried that but it caused other problems in the code.
I fixed the problem by doing the following in form1.cs
namespace DMV_Access_App
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public static string logLU;
public Form1()
{ Rest of form1.cs code ...
This took care of the problem. Seems so simple. Of course, being a newbie, I am not sure what ramifications there are but it does work. This is great forum!

As an example I have two categories in a property grid. One is read-only and the other is editable.
I use a timer to automatically update the properties in the read-only category, approximately every 100msec. However for the updated values in the read-only category to be displayed properly I have to do a PropertyGrid.Refresh() call. This moves the focus inside the property grid, so if I'm editing an editable property I lose my focus anytime the timer fires.
Is there a simple way to work around this?

Have you tried using the respective ActiveControl and SetFocus methods?

Won't the ActiveControl always return the property grid? I'm losing focus within the property grid, not from the property grid.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, you're right.
I'm sort of guessing here; I misunderstood your original question. How about the SelectedGridItem property?

Yeah tried that. Didn't seem to do what I want.

I want to know if its possible to automate the System.Windows.Forms.WebBrowser and make it running in multiple threads.
I mean I want to login to say mysite.com , using 5 different accounts, Is it possible to do that simultaneously with 5 web browsers in 5 threads maintaining seperate sessions with the server of mysite.com,
Wont the sessions overlap with each other?
|
|
|
|
|
No, it's not. The WebBrowser will only work on the UI thread.
You don't need 5 seperate threads for this. Just 5 seperate WebBrowser controls.

Hi,
I am executing my windows application in Windows 7.

I'd get a monitor that's 125% bigger.

Please forgive me if this is a simple question -- I'm pretty new to C#.
Here's a quick code snippet that tries to take advantage of the ClearQuest API:
ClearQuestOleServer.SessionClass cqSession = new ClearQuestOleServer.SessionClass();
cqSession.UserLogon(login, password, dbName, (int)ClearQuestConstants.SessionType.AD_PRIVATE_SESSION, "");
object cqEntities = cqSession.GetEntityDefNames();
Now, when I run through this in the debugger and watch cqEntities, I can see that it's an array of strings (the "Type" field even claims that it's an "object {object[]}" type, with each item within it an "object {string}" type), but C# won't let me cast cqEntities as a string[], nor will it let me use cqEntities in a foreach (since it's not enumerable). What can I do to get at the stringy contents?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
|

I am not clear on your problems and I don't know the API:
object cqEntities = cqSession.GetEntityDefNames();
change to
String[] cqEntities = cqSession.GetEntityDefNames() as String[];
foreach (String str in cqEntities)
{
Console.Out.WriteLine(str);
}
Just let me know if it works
|
|
|
|
|
No, sadly, it doesn't; it merely sets up cqEntities as an array of nulls. Thanks, though!
|
|
|
|

Just a guess, but if you cast it (preferably with "as" and a null check) as an object[] first, you can then cast each element as a string in a foreach.
All those who believe in psycho kinesis, raise my hand.

I'm having some luck with this one. Thanks! I should have thought of casting the function call as an array of objects myself!

If you hover over the "GetEntityDefNames()" method in your VS editor, you should get a little popup that describes the type that the method returns. Match cqEntities with that type. Alternately the ClearQuest API docs should give you the proper return type. Even the VS class browser should be able to tell you what the type is. You'll want to avoid casting if you can, unless that's being forced on you by the ClearQuest API, in which case that's a heads up that it's not a very good API.
