You don't. This normally means that there is a problem with either your code or your Access installation, MDAC, VB installation, ... Check out this search result[^] on MSDN.

Rounding off decimals

The problem is that I am sourcing various numbers from a machine. The numbers are like 1.00006587 and 0.000248. The problem is that I need to round off the last decimal so for example if 1.00006587 is given the result would be 1.00007
Help please! OMG | :OMG:

Math.Round allows you to specify how many decimals to round to.

That's correct.

But Math.Round uses the bankers algorithm for rounding. So 3.45 returns 3.4 instead of 3.5.

Be wary of that. If you need to have normal rounding (I mean the one we learn in school) then you'll need to implement your own custom rounding procedure. Which is fairly easy.

Furthermore it's wise that you choose for the Decimal type instead of Single or Double type because these types are approximations and would give rounding errors quite quickly.

Hi,
I'm building a very simple mail program, the only required feature is to send mail in html format. That's what i need:
1) A component like a RichTextBox that allows me to edit html files/code in a WYSIWYG way
2) Is there any component that can send a html email with pictures?

Thank u very much,

caret position in a being edited Node

How do I set the Position of the caret of a Node in a Treeview that's being edited? There isn't a Select() function available like it is with textboxes

Re: caret position in a being edited Node

There is nothing in the .NET BCL that will do this. There is no method to call anywhere in the TreeView or TreeViewNode, it's just not supported. I don't even know if the underlying TreeView control that the TreeView class wraps supports it.

You might be able to "fudge it" by getting the handle to the control that holds the text being edited and using the Win32 API SendMessage function call to send it the appropriate messages to position the caret. Don't ask me for details, I can't give them to you. This is all just a theory...

Darn. It seems that the Node Text can't be changed even after that text has been edited. At least it doesn't work when I do this in the AfterLabelEdit-Event because the new Node text gets assigned after this even or something like that

WindowsPrincipal in non-AD environment

Does WindowsPrincipal or WindowsIdentity behave differently depending on whether the code is running in an Active Directory environment or a non-Active Directory environment? e.g. is a WindowsPrincipal always a WindowsPrincipal in any Windows environment?

Use SelectSingleNode with an XPath to find the node, then set it's value.

Dynamically naming tabs

Hi I'm trying to add tabs so that each one has a name like this:
tabPage 1
tabPage 2
etc

but if many tabs are opened and closed I don't want the number to go high.

This is what I've got so far:

int i = 0;
string index = "tabPage" + Convert.ToString(i);
if (mainTabs.TabPages.Contains(mainTabs.TabPages[index]))
{
string index2 = "tabPage" + Convert.ToString(i + 1);
mainTabs.TabPages.Add(index2);
}

Thanks for your help

So i take it you're adding and removing tabs from the tab control, and you want to reuse numbers that have been removed up until the point of adding a new one? Is this correct? If so, couldn't you do something really simple, like create a collection (I.E. arraylist or something a little less intensive), and add numbers to it as they become available. Then remove them when you reuse them. So, you would just have a removetabpage function that would store the number of the tabpage you're removing, say 55, in an arraylist. When you created a new page, you could simply get the first number in the "discarded number" arraylist, assuming there is one, and remove it from the "discarded number" list. I'm sure someone else will have some answer thats a little more efficient, but I think this would work as a simple solution.

Regex / String formatting question

julian_l1-Dec-04 7:05

Hi All,

Question regarding splitting a string:

Let's say I have the following format:

[a-zA-Z]*-[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[A-Z][A-Z][0-9][0-9][A-Z]

or in short form, the split would be:
<s1>-<s2>-<s3><s4><s5>

E.g,
ABC-2-725-XY15A
s1 = ABC-2
s2 = 725
s3 = XY
s4 = 15
s5 = A

Note about s1,
it starts with an alpha character and is followed by any string...
there can be dashes and numbers, but there will never be "-[0-9][0-9][0-9]-" sequence in s1 so you'd know where s2 begins

Does anyone have an idea on how to split in such manner?

Thanks,
-Julian

foreign key

When I use the Fill method of a DataAdapter it creates the table structure in my dataset. It also brings the PrimaryKey information about that table to the dataset. My question is: is there anyway to bring the "foreign key" information about the table columns ? How can I know which columns are foreign keys and to which table they refer ?

thanks
