Interesting, but I'll stick to Firefox. I'll look at it anyways to see how it works with the current flavor of CPHog...

CPHog (I believe thats the name of) offers this functionality, I too have random signatures with it.

You don't want that... You're database will become terribly slow. Store the filename of your image instead and store the image itself on the harddrive...

I disagree with the other guy...I mean, he has a point. But sometimes you really do need to store an image in a db. You may just have to figure out a way to work around the slow down...so it's important to keep that in mind.
I work with VB not C#, but it's pretty close so you should be able to figure it out from what I give you. Basically, you need to turn the image file into an array of bytes. So your table should contain a blob column, or a column that will hold an array of bytes. So, your code would look something like this

Dim dt as New DataTable<br />
'Either fill dt with schema from access db or add column like below...<br />
dt.Columns.Add("ImageColumn", System.Type.GetType("System.Byte[]"))<br />
<br />
Dim strImageLocation as String = "C:\My Image.gif"<br />
If System.IO.File.Exists(strImageLocation) Then 'Make sure the image file exists<br />
    Dim rowNew As DataRow = dt.NewRow<br />
    rowNew("ImageColumn") = System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(strImageLocation)<br />
    dt.Rows.Add(rowNew)<br />
End If

Hope this helps.

Edit functionalities in Combobox

Hello there,

Can anyone guide how to implement the regular cut/copy/paste functionalities in the windows forms combobox control? I am surprised to note that these are not present by default!

I have been able to implement copy and cut for the selected text, but Paste still remains an issue as I am not able to know the position on the combobox where I should paste from the clipboard.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks and regards

Atul Agarwal

HI,
I agree that its present. But guess I forgot to mention that I am using MDI forms and the same functionality is missing the moment you add a combobox to a child form. How do we solve this?

Thanks and regards,
ATUL

I'm assuming that you're using a DropDownList-style combo box, because the edit box of the DropDown style already implements cut/copy/paste.

To select a particular string, use the FindString/FindStringExact methods to find the string, and set the SelectedIndex property to the returned value to select it.

Master Detail

How do I link data bound detail fields on a form to data bound master fields? I'm using the default setup produced by dragging fields onto the form from the Data Sources window, so I have two BindingSource objects, one for detail and one for master. The two tables are linked by a relation in the DataSet.

Hello eveybody!
I have a small question need your help.
My datagridview is bound with a dataset contains tblProduct table. A combox allows users choose a Product(B3700, NAPPLE 3'1, NAPPLE 3'2,...)
If I filter like this tblProductBingdingSource.Filter = "Product = 'B3700'" . It works well
If I repeat tblProductBingdingSource.Filter = "Product = 'NAPPLE 3'2'" , it fails to work because of existence of the quote mark.
If I replace string "Product = 'NAPPLE 3'2'" with string "Product like 'NAPPLE 3%'", my grid will have this list of unexpected products such as NAPPLE 3'1, NAPPEL 3'2, NAPPLE 3'3,so on.
When the users choose a value from combobox such as NAPPLE 3'2, I only have an only product, NAPPLE 3'2. Please help me correct the filtering string.
I know the filtering string "Product like 'NAPPLE 3%2'" but the string is not general for all.
Thanks in advance
Sorry about my English.

It seem to be a solution or an answer.

You can replace the single quote with two of them which means that it will work, so the search term would be

"Product='NAPPLE 3''2'''"

Give it a try and post back if you need any help
