I added listView1.Items[1].Selected=true; to my function and it still doesn't highlight the selected item for me. Is their something I'm not doing correctly?

Make sure you call the Focus() method of the listview after selecting the listviewitem.

I recently wrote a pocket PC version of the game Simon. so far it is coming along nicely, but i still havent incorporated sound into the game! it would be nice to have 4 distinct tones that will play when each of the four colored buttons lights up. i am not sure how to do messagebeeps or any other sounds in C#. also, i dont even know if they will port to the pocket PC properly... any thoughts?!

I think you'll have to use P-invoke for sounds. The following code should get you started. I think it will port to PocketPC, but it may take a little work:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Class1
    {
        [ DllImport( "WinMM.dll" ) ]
        private extern static void PlaySound( 
            string soundName,
            int     hModule,
            int     dwFlags );

        private const int SND_FILENAME = 0x20000; /* name is file name */

        [STAThread]
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            PlaySound( "C:\\Windows\\Media\\ChatKick.wav", 0, SND_FILENAME );
        }
    }
}

Server Clustering - MS SQL server

Hi, can anyone tell me anything about clustering? I will need to implement:
1. MS SQL Server clustering (I think I need to configure "virtual node"? I have no idea how to do the implementation. I heard it's also tricky to get server certificate installed in cluster scenario.
2. C#/ASP.NET --> COM+ (Okay, I think I can do COM+ distributed transaction, but not sure how to configure load balancing)

I need some "step-by-step" articles that actually get to the point fast. Any recommendation? Thanks!

first of all clustering is an admin thing go to an sql werver site. Unless you are referring to something different "Sql Server Clustering" can be founf in SQL Books Online at the msdn site msdn But I think your talking about something different.

load balancing is done with a load balancing server, you would also want to monitor loads by openeing up performance monitor, com+ mmc and watch the loads, .net has some tools inside the tools menu from the start menu.

If I were you I would go buy a book

Goes over the inner workings of com+ from a c perspective and ends with .NET. Is very useful and explains a lot about load balancing

heres some links for you to try

But I know Books on line has about 15 or 20 pages because I had to set it up last year. Its not easy to find though. Anyways I included several links for you. The last one has links. I would try microsoft newsgroups and sql server. They can help you more since DBA's are on there

But for load balancing if your programming it I would buy a book. Serioously because thats a whole topic in itself and has so many factors that if you just read a few aricles you'll do a poor job on the application.

DataGrid & Large Integers

14-Aug-03 4:11

Hey everyone,

Here's the prob: I am importing a set of data from a CSV file using the Microsoft Text Reader into a dataset, and later into a datagrid for previewing the data, the problem is that there is a column that contains very large numbers, 16 digits long. When I view the data in the datagrid, or when I export it back into CSV, the numbers get mangled into, say 6.00034+E. Since I don't perform any mathematical calculations on these numbers, I could just change the data type to text in the dataset but apparently that is not possible? So I found the BoundColumn.DataFormatString in the System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace but my program is a windows app. Any pointers would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks for your reply, Ista.

I tried that, but let's say I bring in the number 6000645657564980, and it gets garbled as 600064+E in the datagrid if I then convert it back to string,
whether in SQL or C#, it gives me back 6000640000000000. Any suggestions?

Null reference problem

Did you have the same problem as I do now ? I call a member function of an object that must return an object, the member function works well it creates the object to be returned and even it returns the object but the caller does not receive anything. The strange part is that at debug time the caller actually receive the object, but when build and run the project everinthing goes wrong and I have the upper problem Cry | :((

pls help me

I'll show you some piece of code and I can show you more if necessary:

private void btnOk_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
   if(txtUserName.Text.Equals(String.Empty))<br />
   {<br />
     MessageBox.Show("pls insert the username !!!");<br />
     return;<br />
   }<br />
   if(txtPassword.Text.Equals(String.Empty))<br />
   {<br />
     MessageBox.Show("pls insert a password !!!");<br />
     return;<br />
   }<br />
<br />
   if (componenta != null)<br />
   {<br />
     medic = componenta.MedicLogin(txtUserName.Text,txtPassword.Text);<br />
     if(medic != null)<br />
     {<br />
       lblData.Text = medic.FirstName;		<br />
     }<br />
     else<br />
     {<br />
       MessageBox.Show("medic null");<br />
       return;<br />
     }<br />
   }<br />
   else<br />
   {<br />
     MessageBox.Show("componeta nula");<br />
   }<br />
}

I must say also that in a console application the previous problem does not apear.

I'm not sure if this is the routine that calls (and receives -in some cases- the null reference back) or if it is the one that is called (and sends back the null reference in some cases).

In either case, which line is the one where you find the null reference?

Since you mention that this problem doesn't appear in a console application...
...what is different in the trouble case vs the non-trouble one?
[I see a btnOK_Click name there, which seems to hint that this is part of a Win App project, with GUI and buttons and all that... maybe the case of a console application is much more simple, and the difference might be in some included library...]

Guys, can you do something like this?

wr.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;

wr.WriteStartDocument();

wr.WriteStartElement("GraphicCollection");
wr.WriteAttributeString("objID", "12345");
wr.WriteCData(obj); //Can you write the binary memory map/layout of the object with C#? And restore it later on? I know WriteCData(String) does not accept "byte". Any alternative?

wr.WriteEndElement();
wr.WriteEndDocument();

wr.Flush();

wr.Close();

i have a background image on my form and i wanted to put a transparent label on it. however, i noticed that a label cannot have it's backcolor changed to 'transparent'. so i created a groupbox and placed a label in it. i then changed to backcolor of the groupbox to 'transparent' and the label's backcolor is now transparent! what the heck? is this a 'feature' of the groupbox or is there some other way of making a label transparent that i don't know about?

*UPDATE*

i believe i've come across a bug. try these steps:
create a groupbox on a form and set the backcolor to 'transparent'.....works great

now change the backcolor back to 'control', change the flatstyle to 'system', then try to set the backcolor to 'transparent'.....error 'Invalid property value.' okay, so it won't let you have a transparent background while the flatstyle is set to system.

so change the flatstyle back to 'normal' and change the backcolor to 'transparent'. then change the flatstyle to 'system'.....works!? but it's really buggy, the display in the groupbox fails to update and when the program is run the background of the groupbox is weirded out.

i'm NOT using csharp 2003 so i don't know if they've fixed this in the new version or not. did they? why can the backcolor not be transparent if the flatstyle is set to 'system'?
