I've sent it to you both, in pdf format. Just want to ask, is this topic covered by another article in Code Project? I think I came across one - but I didn't read it beacuse I already wrote mine. If there isn't I will send the package to Code Project web master to have it posted here.
And no, been working on different stuff. So, as for mdac (question you asked over email), I don't have the answer for ya.

microsoft has already written a program for this. you can find the link to it, along with other info about install programs, on this page, http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetdep/html/dotnetframedepguid.asp

I have an ASP .NET application in which I had to open an Excel file and read data. I included a COM reference for Excel Object and used the Excel Application object to read from a spreadsheet. I am assuming this is an unmanaged code.
Doesn't .Net have some class similar to this which can allow me to access any cell inside an Excel Sheet?

Hello there,
I'm quite new to the .NET Framework. At the moment I'm trying to draw an image, actually it's working quite nice. Nevertheless when I draw the image bigger than it normally is, it gets blurred a lot. I guess thats some kind af antialiasing.
So does anyone know how to disable this effect?
I'm using this code for drawing:
g.DrawImage( m_bmpTileSet, rcDest, rcSrc, GraphicsUnit.Pixel );
Thanks,
Menne

I'm developing a .NET based DLL (in VB.NET) which exposes a COM class for an old system which only supports COM/ActiveX.
So I'm basicly calling my new .NET COM class from an old VB6 based application.
One of the methods in my .NET based COM class takes a HWND handle (long) which is used as the parent handle for a form which my DLL creates and displays.
But how do I set the parent handle to my .NET Windows form ?
The form is displayed with the Show method (modeless).
|
|
|
|
|
let me ask why do you need to pass a HWND?
i am not sure if it is possible.

Because the old system that will use my .NET component and form, only supports a win32 HWND...
|
|
|
|
|
i mean, why do u need a parent HWND, for what purpose?
Regards,
Serge (Logic Software)

My .NET form need the HWND handle because it's an child form within another application.

System.Windows.Forms.Form.Handle
Property Value
An IntPtr that contains the window handle (HWND) of the control. (or form)

Yes... but that's a READ-ONLY property !
|
|

Yes - well, the window handle is assigned by the operating system when the window is created.

Dude, please read my question again... I want to set the *parent* handle.
Not read the Window handle of my form...
|
|
|
|
|
Then you will need the SetParent API call...and pass it the handle you get as per the earlier post.

I have tried the SetParent API function but without luck ;(
The form is created but the parent-child relationship is not set somehow.
Both this...
m_MyForm = new MyForm
SetParent(m_MyForm.Handle.ToInt32, m_ParentHandle)
m_MyForm.Show()
...and...
m_MyForm = new MyForm
m_MyForm.Show()
SetParent(m_MyForm.Handle.ToInt32, m_ParentHandle)
...doesn't work... something else I need to call or set ?

man, i AM trying to figure out what you wanna accomplish. sorry if i bothered u with my "irrelevant" questions. if you want a .NET form to set its Owner to a not .NET form - the answer is you can't.
if you want a .NET form to become an MDI child of a .NET form - the answer is tou can't.
what i was trying to understand is for what purpose you need it so that i can judge if it is at least possible. you need to provide more info.

So in short (regardless if it's a MDI child or not)... I can't ;(
I think I have given enough info... but can can try to write it different
I'm making a .NET DLL which contains a single Windows Form. This form is used by an VB6 based application thru COM.
The VB6-based application then use my DLL/form by calling a few standard methods and setting the form size, parent handle and such. It's the application way of supporting plug-ins.
The plug-ins are shown as kind of controls on a form but not as a MDI form or ActiveX control - it's a kind of embedded form.
This works today but only with VB6 DLLs (COM) and VB6 forms.
So I basicly need to make a plug-in for the application but this time in .NET...
|

Ok, now I see your problem.
I am afraid you won't be able to implement it this way because of the different nature of forms in .NET and VB6.
One solution that I can think of now is to implement your plugin DLL without a form, and create another DLL in Vb6 that will consume your plugin DLL methods, while providing a form for your application to show it as usual.
hope that makes some sense

Have I got this correct:
HWND passed into .NET Object to be displayed as a child of a .NET form in the DLL?
Look into NativeWindow.FromHandle or Control.FromHandle. This should give you a .NET object from the handle and expose some more functionality.
If you just want to display the HWND as a child of a Form created in .NET you can use a windows UI function from User32, SetWindowParent will be able to reparent the child form as a child of your .NET form.

Is it possible to create your own datatypes in .Net. If so, how. I have a need to create some new data types but want to be able to convert them as required. I will need to implement .Empty and the interfaces that allow me to cast them.
IntStrPair
Int as Int32
Str as String
Property IsEmpty
End Type
Ctype(IntStrPair, Integer) = Int Value
Ctype(IntStrPair, String) = Str Value
The obvious way is to just create a class or structure but I wondered whether it is possible to actually create datatypes? Any ideas of how to implement this would be greatly appreciated.
