Greetings,
I've successfully implemented MS's control array as prescribed in this article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dv_vstechart/html/vbtchcreatingcontrolarraysinvisualbasicnetvisualcnet.asp
But I would like to implement a two dimensional control array. I'm adding buttons to a series of tab pages, and I need to be able to address the buttons on each tab page.
Is it possible to modify the class provided in the article to support a second dimension? I'm a newbie at C# so I will need a few key lines of code which illustrate the modifications needed. Thanks.

if you need to access Button in tabPage you dont have to create array as when you add control to tabpage this control will be add to controls collection of tabPage
to access all the button in tabpage you can write somthing like
foreach(Control ctl in tabPage1.Controls)
{
if(ctl is Button)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ctl.Name);
}
}

Set up a delegate which you call when the button is pressed, and which the main form ties to a method that refreshes the tree control.

Oh, you've made the leap from VB ? Congratulations !! 
Here[^] is an online tutorial. Basically, your control contains a definition of an event ( a delegate ) and an instance of that type. It defaults to null, and when the button is pressed, if it's not null, it calls it. The main page sets this variable to be a function IN the main page which matches the definition. In this function, you refresh the tree view. This function is then called by your control whenever the button is pressed.

Hi Christian

i have declared a public delegate in the main form which i am calling in the click event of the button on usercontrol.
Thanks

In the control:
public delegate void ClickEvent();
public ClickEvent RefreshTree = null;
inside the click event handler for the button in the control:
if (RefreshTree != null) RefreshTree();
in the mainform:
void RefreshEvent()
{
theTree.Invalidate();
}
inside the create method, just after the call to initialisecomponents:
theControl.RefreshTree = new ControlType.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);
There are a few things that need renaming, but that's basically it. The control defines the event and an instance of it. The main form defines the method and ties it to the event. The control calls the event if it's been set when the button is pressed. The method that is called refreshes the tree.

sorry to bother you again.
"inside the create method, just after the call to initialisecomponents:
theControl.RefreshTree = new ControlType.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);"
i could not get the concept of this line.
where this line is to be written in the main form or in the control.
if i write this line inthe main form after the call to initialisecomponents.
PatientDetails.RefreshTree = new PatientDetails.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);
where PatientDetails is my usercontrol and frmMain is my Main form.
it gives me this error
e:\PRJVITREORETINAL\frmMain.cs(54): An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property 'PRJVITREORETINAL.PatientDetails.RefreshTree'
thanks

That's correct.

You've put the class name, instead of the name of an instance of the class.

hi Christian
i am writing these statements inthe usercontrol do i have to do anything else. this refreshtree always is coming null and doing nothing
public delegate void ClickEvent();
public ClickEvent RefreshTree = null;
private void button1_Click_1(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (RefreshTree != null) RefreshTree();
}
thanks

Yeah, like I said:
in the mainform:
void RefreshEvent()
{
theTree.Invalidate();
}
inside the create method, just after the call to initialisecomponents:
theControl.RefreshTree = new ControlType.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);
RefreshTree is just a name. You set the ClickEvent to be null, and when you check, it's still null. It needs to be give a value of a method in the main form.

Look i will explain what i am doing i have a main form in which on a menu click a usercontrol is loaded that is patientdetails. now if i click on a button on usercontrol i need a tree control that is on the Main form to get refreshed. i have done evrything similar to what u said but whenever i click on the button on usercontrol it does nothing.
This is the code for menuitme click to load usercontrol
PatientDetails PatDetails = new PatientDetails();
PatDetails.Visible = true;
PatDetails.Dock = DockStyle.Top;
MainPanel.Controls.Clear();
MainPanel.Controls.Add(PatDetails);
this is refresh function in the mainform
void RefreshEvent()
{
MessageBox.Show("Hi");
}
this is main form code after intialize function
// PatientDetails pd= new PatientDetails();
// pd.RefreshTree = new PatientDetails.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);
in usercontrol this the button code and delegate refrence.
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
if (RefreshTree != null) RefreshTree();
}
public delegate void ClickEvent();
public ClickEvent RefreshTree = null;
pls tell me where and what i am doing wrong
thanks

Ah... If your PatientDetails object is created on the fly, this is also where you need to set up the event. Something like
PatDetails.RefreshEvent = new PatientDetails.ClickEvent(this.RefreshEvent);
What you did is create a NEW PatientDetails object, and assign it ( and only it ) to have this event.

Thanks a lot Christian
my problem is solved

No worries. I said to put the code under InitializeComponents because I assuemd the control had been added in the designer. The point was just to do it after the control was created, but as soon as possible.

Hi everybody!
I've got this code:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Car audi80 = ....
Car vw_beetle = ....
ArrayList cars = new ArrayList();
foreach(Car c in this method)
cars.Add(c);
}
Now I need to fill an ArrayList with all Car-classes I've defined in the Main-Method. How would I do the foreach-loop to find all variables of a certain type and add them to the ArrayList?
thanks

You can't. You need to rethink your approach. Perhaps you should just add them one by one as you create them.

Ok, thanks.
It was just for testing purposes until I create a GUI so that the user can add them manually, so it's no problem.

Hi,
by clicking an execute button from my C# Application I want to start a process, that executes the DOS command window (C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe) and automatically run an explicit command, like "cd.." or "cd\" or "copy...".
I thought, it works like "Process.Start("iexplore.exe","http://www.google.de"). How can I realize it?
Regards,
Axel

Write some thing like
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("cmd.exe");
startInfo.Arguments="/c help";
Process.Start(startInfo);

Thank you.
But how do I have to arrange it to have the window kept open? (to see what happens)
Are there further beginning strings like "/C" for the argument?

Axel
