Hello,
Is there a way of making the ComboBox as a typeahead?
In otherer words, user can't modify the text, but if start typing it will give you the corresponding entries in the dropdown list, depending on the string that user enters.
Thank you

private void ComboBox1_KeyUp(Object sender,System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
}
AutoCompleteCombo(ComboBox1,e);
}
public static void AutoCompleteCombo(ComboBox cbo,KeyEventArgs e)
{
String sTypedText;
Int32 iFoundIndex;
Object oFoundItem;
String sFoundText ;
String sAppendText ;
//'Allow select keys without Autocompleting
switch (e.KeyCode)
{
case Keys.Back:
break;
case Keys.Left:
break;
case Keys.Right:
break;
case Keys.Tab:
break;
case Keys.Up:
break;
case Keys.Delete:
break;
case Keys.Down:
break;
}
//'Get the Typed Text and Find it in the list
sTypedText = cbo.Text;
iFoundIndex = cbo.FindString(sTypedText);
//'If we found the Typed Text in the list then Autocomplete
if (iFoundIndex >= 0)
{ //'Get the Item from the list (Return Type depends if Datasource was bound
//' or List Created)
oFoundItem = cbo.Items[iFoundIndex];
//'Use the ListControl.GetItemText to resolve the Name in case the Combo
//' was Data bound
sFoundText = cbo.GetItemText(oFoundItem);
//'Append then found text to the typed text to preserve case
sAppendText = sFoundText.Substring(sTypedText.Length);
cbo.Text = sTypedText.ToString() + sAppendText.ToString();
//'Select the Appended Text
cbo.SelectionStart = sTypedText.Length;
cbo.SelectionLength = sAppendText.Length;

I am trying to create a DTS package using C#. I have done this in VB6 without any problems. However, when I convert everything over to C# I
get the 'System.InvalidCastException'. I am running windows 2000, SQL
2000 sp3a. I have also followed the instructions in using DTS provided
by "http://sqldev.net/DTS/dotnetcookbook.htm".
The error is occurs at this line:
<br />
DTS.DataPumpTask DT = (DTS.DataPumpTask)package.Tasks.New <br />
("DTSDataPumpTask"); <br />
Does anyone know what causes this and is there a fix for it?
Below is a copy of the code.

I was able to resolve this issue and thought I would post the solution so that others may benefit from it. The following example creates, saves, and executes a DTS package in C#. This example is setup to only DTS one field from one table but it can easily be modified to do a complete database.
This particular section of code gave me the most trouble so I thought I would point it out as well. My original code looked like this and would cause an invalidcastexception.
<br />
DTS.Task oTask = (DTS.Task)package.Tasks.New("DTSDataPumpTask");<br />
DTS.CustomTask oCustomTask = oTask.CustomTask;<br />
This was how I corrected it.
<br />
DTS.DataPumpTask2 oCustTask;<br />
DTS.Task oTask;<br />
oTask = pkg.Tasks.New("DTSDataPumpTask");<br />
oCustTask = (DTS.DataPumpTask2)oTask.CustomTask;<br />
Here is the entire example:

How can i read XML from a string into the XmlTextReader class?
|

I asked the question friday, and am gettign to it today. The original question was:
I have two controls each of which have loops (we will call loop 1 and loop 2) that call a central function that sends and gets data via serial (we will call Communication function). Only one loop is to run at a time. The problem I am having is when the user requests loop 2 while loop 1 just started. Loop 2 alerts loop 1 to stop, but if loop 1 just started, it will still be calling the communication function until it finishes.
I hope this is makeing sense...
Meanwhile, loop 2 has started calling communication function as well and I am getting overlap. I cannot simple set a bit and exit the loop at the end. (It is a big program so you will just have to trust me.)
Is there a way to cache the values needed to be sent to the communications function?
Is there a clean way to exit a loop without it finishing?
Should I be focussing on trying to make the two (in reality 10) different loops NEVER call until all other loops are inactive, or should I be trying to make the communication function able to handle multiple calls?
Peter V. mentioned Mutex which I tried and is not working. I believe it is not working because each loop is creating a new instance of the Communication function. But is this were true, wouldn't the program treat each instance seperately. Thanks again in advance.

I guess making the Communication method static with Mutex applied to it should solve the problem.
This will ensure other threads will be blocked until the Communication function exits.
As faar as exiting the loop without it finishing, the cleaner method will be pinvoke.
Guess it helps.

Sorry for the delay. I have been woring on the Mutex/ lock idea and almost have it working. I am intrigued however by the PInvoke method. Can you let me know what this is? I have found little information about it, and how it would apply to exitting a loop is escaping me.
Thanks,
Dwayne

Hi everybody,
I am hosting the ActiveX webbrowser control in one of my win forms. The webbrowser navigates to the blank page, and through mshtml I add my HTML to the control, this HTML also contains an <object> which is a COM object created in .NET .
Unfortunately, the webbrowser control does not allow this kind of content because of the XP2 security settings. One way to circumvent this is to use an HTA file, in which I host my COM object.
But is there any way to alter the security settings of the webbrowser control to allow this COM object to run?
Thank you for your help.

Hi there
I want to create a software package that can program the PIC16F873 device in C#. I would like to be able to compile the file that needs to be placed onto the PIC using a package like MPLAB which will then give out a hex file and then would like to use my created package to program the hex file on to the PIC device. I need to know how to go about doing this. I am in need of desparate help. Please help. Thanks

What PIC programmer do you have? If none, then you need to get one. This will be either a serial or parallel programmer, although these days you can buy USB ones.
For example, I have a velleman K8048 programmer (built from a kit) which will handle most of the PIC16F series, and is a serial programmer. I plug it into my serial port, and I can use the software that came with it to program or erase the PICs.

hi there
thanks for the reply
I have built a programmer that i need to test. It uses the serial interface. my project includes me to build a programmer and create the software package. I am still trying to test my programmer but am confused on where to start with programming my software package. Do you have any ideas where i can start?
thanks

Do you know how your programmer works, that is, what you need to do to the serial interface on it to program a chip in the programmer? This might include holding a particular line (DTR etc) high while transmitting data in a particular format.
I don't know how mine works (since I have software that came with it), but I could find out if I needed to by connecting to another PC and monitoring the signals.
As a first stage, you need to investigate what you can and can't do from the CLR to talk to the serial port h/w in your PC.

I am using normal File.Copy method to copy files from remote servers to my local hard drive for processing them.
The issue is file.copy is not reliable and also system gets hanged many time while copying over the network.
so I have decided to use Robocopy (FTP cannot be used because of security reasons)
As it is a command line utility Can anybody help me in how can I use it in my C# progamme without using command line.

Hi,
To start a process use the function:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start();
This function has a couple of overloads providing different kinds of options.

Thanks,
Is Robocoy is the best option for copying the files from Remote server ?

Use Powershell. Google "C# Powershell". If you are a big command line fan and use C# then Powershell is your best friend.
