You could do this by manually setting the Region of the control. Search google for "non-rectangular forms" or similar for some examples of setting the region.

How would that solve the problem of firing events for the window frame? Sure you could draw only the client area then draw the borders yourself, but 1) what a pain in the arse, and 2) you could achieve that by simply setting Form.FormBorderStyle to FormBorderStyle.None.

To be honest, I didn't read through his entire post, I saw it about to fall off the board's main page without replies, so I posted.  I guess my thinking was that by setting the region of the form, you could have events be raised even if you were outside the client area.

Events are only fired for the client area. Setting the region to a small value changing the client area (and can mask the window frame). You can't really increase it, though. A window must be confined to the RECT defined for its window class.

Interesting, I'll have to try that out and see for myself.

Events are only fired for the client area and not the window frame. To receive messages for the window frame, you need to handle the appropriate WM_NC* window message by overriding WndProc.
Search for WM_NCMOUSEMOVE[^] in this forum for examples about how to implement this.
You should also read Consuming Unmanaged DLL Functions[^] and about the Windows Controls[^] - the Common Controls which most Windows Forms controls encapsulate to provide a consistent user interface.

I have a process I am starting up, but it doesn't seem to hid like I would have had it start.
Process someProcess = new Process();
someProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\\someconsoleapp.exe";
someProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "";
someProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
For some reason this code didn't work. Is there some way that I can make the console app hidden from within the actual console app itself?
Cheers,
Jim

I think the following should solve your problem:
someProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden

Thank you so much! That worked beautifully!

I am trying to filer rows from the database by passing the user input from the textbox to the rowfilter but not working. Here is the code.
DataViewManager myDVM = new DataViewManager(ds);
string filter;
filter = txtSearch.Text ;
myDVM.DataViewSettings["ExpungeName"].RowFilter = "LastName Like 'filter%' ";
However, if I do it directly without the textbox input, it works. Please help.
DataViewManager myDVM = new DataViewManager(ds);
myDVM.DataViewSettings["ExpungeName"].RowFilter = "LastName Like 'Jones%' ";

Your statement doesnt integrate the string in filter into your RowFilter. Change your statement to:
<br />
myDVM.DataViewSettings["ExpungeName"].RowFilter = "LastName Like '" + filter + "%' ";<br />

hi all,
i am new to c#, so need some help in programming. i have few queries. if u can then plz solve it for me.
1.Console application: App should accept input as path of a text file and search string from user and display lines containing search string on console or should write in another text file based on the parameters passed.
2.Win form application: App should accept input from user and create XML file with these values. If an existing XML file is provided it should validate and displays controls as per the XML and populates them with values specified in the XML.
3.Win form application: Should use XML for reference numbers and values as template and search for these reference numbers in a text file [containing reference numbers with values] and update the results of comparison in a data base.

Your probably looking for FileStream and some of her derivatives. If you want to know how to make a console application just click console application when you start visual studio (Under the assumption thats what your using).
If your looking to accept input you can either pass them as extra paramaters from the console (This is the same as most languages where the main function takes an array of strings) or you can use something like System.Console.ReadLine();

This is probably going to be very similar. Your going to want some xml serialialization (I'm probably wrong to call it that) so considering reading that.
I hope I've at least given you a start, please ask me if I can help more!

This stinks of homework!

Are you joking? This is YOUR homework, not ours! We don't get paid to do this either. What's the point of taking a class if your not going to do the work to pass it?!
You're going to have to write these applications yourself. Use the materials that were covered in the class up to this point and at least TRY to hack something together. When you get stuck, then you can call us to help you out with specific problems.
Asking us, or anyone else for that matter, to "solve/write this for me" is just plain rude.
