You can simply attach an event handler to your MenuItem object.
MenuItem mi = new MenuItem();
mi.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.MenuClick);
...
private void MenuClick(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
MenuItem mi = sender as MenuItem;
if(mi != null)
{
}
}

OK ive put that in the code but now i have no idea how to tell the event handler which menu item was clicked. Thanks so much!!

check out my site - Dinco Inc. - I just started it so theres not much on it.

It appeared in your case you were assigning the Text property of the MenuItem to be a filename. Once you cast the sender as a MenuItem and confirm the cast didn't fail (by checking for null), you can then check the MenuItem (i.e.; mi in my example) for it's Text property. Try throwing a MessageBox.Show(mi.Text); after your check for null to see what I am talking about. This will tell you exactly what was clicked.

Thank you so much. It worked perfectly!! If you wanna see the program i was making then go to my site - Dinco Inc. - The program is a miniware program called Desktop Saver. It should be up at least by the middle of next week. Thanks Again!

Hello,
My program needs to access a network share and either copy files from the share or else just execute a program. First I have the client check if it can see the share:
if(Directory.Exists("\\\\server\\share") {
// do whatever
}
else {
// couldn't see share
// provided the share is online
// I assume the client does not have proper permission
// basically I want to "net use" here.
}
Is there a function that does this? Or do i need to start a "net use" process? What is the preferred method of gaining access to a remote share through C#?
Thanks,
Ian

just use it like a normal file resource

As the first post mentioned - just access the file using a UNC path. If you get an UnauthorizedException, this means you don't have permissions. The correct way is to prompt the user for credentials and impersonate them using those credentials. For an example of impersonation using .NET, see the documentation for the WindowsIdentity.Impersonate method in the .NET Framework SDK.
If you want to go to the trouble of forming a net use statement (using /user and prompting for the password), you could do that but you'll have to make sure you change all UNC references so that they use the new mapped drive letter.

This might be a stupid question but I can't figure it out:
I am writing a simple c# console app that calls another executable (usually a batch file but sometimes an exe). I want the other executable called to run in the same window that I ran the c# app.
For instance, one of the executables I can call is an exe and it prints the build# to the screen. If I call it from the command prompt manually it runs in the same window:
c:\>\\server\share\getversion
build number: 3000
c:\>
However in my C# app it always opens getversion.exe in a new window. How do I make it run in the current command window? I tried using ProcessStartInfo.CreateNoWindow = false but that doesn't work.
if(Directory.Exists("\\\\server\\share\\"))
{
Process myProcess = new Process();
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.FileName = "\\\\server\\share\\getversion.exe";
myProcess.StartInfo = startInfo;
myProcess.Start();
}
When I run ConsoleApplication1.exe from a command prompt, it opens another command window, executes getversion.exe (which then closes immediately and you can't even see what it said).

Arg I figured it out. I used UseShellExecute = false and took out the CreateNoWindow = true.

Hi everyone,
I guess that this is just somethink trivial, but I can't seem to find how to do it. I have a single DataGrid in my Windows Form which I am using to display a DataSet containing two tables constrained by a parent-child relationship. I'm using the DataGrid.SetDataBinding method to databind the datagrid to the first (parent) table. The DataGrid automatically displays a small "+" buttons in each rowheader which allows the user to navigate to related records in the child table. The child table contains a header showing information about the parent table (determined by the ParentRowDisplayStyle property of the DataGrid, I think). This is all nice, but is there any way to navigate back to the parent table? Or do I have to add another control to the form (button) which will call some DataGrid's method to achieve this?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Set both AllowNavigation and CaptionVisible to true. The caption will show some navigational buttons.

Oh, thanks a lot, I didn't use the caption at all, I will try it!
Thanks again

I have just tried it and it works, thanks!  I've got one (well, two) more questions, though:
1. Regardless of the value of ParentRowLabelStyle property, the ParentRow always displays the table name as well as all columns. What am I doing wrong?
2. When users click the "+" button in the parent table, the name of the relation appears and once they click on it, they are navigated to the chlid table. Is it possible to display something else in place of the relation name (something more user friendly) or not?
Thanks again!

Try setting DataGrid.ParentRowsVisible to false.

Why don't you give the relationship a better name? That'd be the easiest way. Otherwise, changing this will be either impossible (without messy reflection) or difficult, since those types of things are wrapped up into private methods - perhaps even nested classes - of the DataGrid control. Learn to read Intermediate Language (IL) - the language to which all .NET languages compile - and use ildasm.exe that comes with the .NET Framework SDK to see what's going on inside it if you want to go down this route. The first suggestion would be far easier, though.

I did this but it didn't help - when I click the button to show the parent row, it contains all information even if
DataGrid.ParentRowsLabelStyle=DataGridParentRowsLabelStyle.None<br /> I already thought that I misunderstood the concept or something, but then I tried to find the ParentRowsLabelStyle in the Designer Generated Code, but it wasn't there, and when I manually added the ParentRowsLabelStyle initialization to the form constructor, it started to work as expected, but I don't know why it wasn't there when I was changing it's value in the designer. Strange.
[Update]
I've tried to add the ParentRowsLabelStyle initialization into the designer generated code, and then tried to change the value of this property in the designer, and it disappeared from the source.  I will rather keep it in the form constructor.

I already did, I just wanted to know if there isn't a better and if I'm not doing it the wrong way  Thanks!

I have written a trace listener that has at least one worker thread to process an internal buffer. When the Close method is called explicitly from within the hosting application, everthing is fine and dandy, but if i add the TraceListener from the system.diagnostics section of the config file, the Close method doesn't ever get called. Does anyone have any idea when that method gets called when added through the config file?

The correct solution is probably to implemente the IDisposable interface on your trace listener. When that object is disposed, you can call the Close method yourself.

Hmm - turns out a i forgot a vital piece of infornmation.
The hosting application hangs when this problem occurs. I implement the Dispose( bool ) method for just this issue, but it never gets to a point where that would be feasible. It appears, at first glance, that the framework is looking for all the threads owned by the hosting app to finish as its trigger for releasing the dynamic config listeners.
It becomes a catch-22, it won't call Close until all threads complete, but I can't know to complete my thread without Close being called. :P
Ugh - I really don't want to require explicit addition and closure of this tracelistener, even though it would be understandable concidering the purpose and goal of this specific listener implementation.

That looks somewhat suspicious to me. The IDisposable interface only has Dispose() as a member. If you are not implementing the actual members of IDisposable, give that a try first.

True, i haven't implementing the raw Dispose() yet. I'll give it a try, but i'm not holding out hope.
Dispose( bool ) is the de-facto method for classes that have finalizers and is implemented by a number of classes, including the TraceListener base class.
|
|
|
|
|
yup - can't override the TraceListener.Dispose method. You have to override the Dispose( bool ) method which i've done and had no luck with. Stupid Dispose!
|
|

OK - So I figured out a solution, but I have to determine the impact. The worker thread IsBackground property had been set to false, mainly to increase performance. (This is supposed to be part of a high-performance, low impact auditing framework we are writing) I'm going to make the assumption that the Trace framework, waits for all non-background threads to complete before calling close.
Thanks for the help...

Glad you found a solution, but I still question the Dispose use. Have you actually put a " : IDisposable" at the end of your class definition? If not, you can do that and then supply at minumum an IDisposable.Dispose() implementation. This will be separate from any dependency upon being able to inherit from TraceListener, but you may need to call the base.Dispose() method to properly clean things up.

Hello,
I have created a non-rectangular form using a GraphicsPath and regions.
Now, I have code that can move the form, but I do not know how to resize the form.
Do I have to somehow know when the user hovers the mouse over the edge of the form to resize it?
Can anyone help me out?
Thanx a lot 
-Flack

I assume that you are already handling the WM_NCHITTEST message in order to move the form. If so, you need to also define a routine that can detect whether the mouse is in one of the 8 different edge areas of the window. WM_NCHITTEST documentation lists the possible return values. (If you are not handling WM_NCHITTEST, you'll need to do these things manually, but the principles are the same.)
