Actually, your other post answered the question; I used ArrayList as an example only, my actual code uses a custom List<MyObject>.

Did you make sure to put the [RunInstaller(true)] attribute above your service installer class? Also, make sure you close and re-open the services window, since it will cache and not notice things sometimes.

Does someone have experience reading WM_INPUT info? I already know I need to use user32.dll, I only have no idea HOW. There are masses of tutorials in c or c++ on this subject, but just a few in C#. I'm a programmer newbe, so I like code with some explanation Big Grin | :-D

I have an array of objects of a class having 10 fields. The first 5 fields should behave like composite keys of a sql table. So only objects conforming to the constraint can be added.

I know that this can be achieved using DataSets and DataRelations. I dont want to use it.
I just need a simple logic to implement this in an ArrayList.

Slow method:

Loop through all the records and compare the values in the fields to the new values you want to add.

Fast method:

Create a hash value for the fields and store in the object. Create a hash value for the new values and loop through the records and look for the hash value.

Even faster method:

Use a hash table instead of an array, create a composite value of the fields and use as key in the hash table. Create a composite value of the new values and check if it exists in the hash table.

I have a textbox that needs to accept the format: 00:00:00

I would like for the format to be "Locked." Therefore, forcing the user to keep the values in this format. For example, when the textbox shows up, it automatically displays 00:00:00. And the user MUST put values in each place or leave them "0." I took a look at the DateTime method. However, it doesn't seem to do what I am looking for. Also, all values entered can only be 0 - 9. Thanks in advance.

Thanks and Regards

You can get this information from Exception.ToString()if you look to the end of the string you will see somthing like form1.cs:line 524 so to get line number you can write code in your exception handling code somthig like

catch(Exception ex)
{
	string strExc=ex.ToString();
	int pos=strExc.IndexOf(":line",0);
	if(pos != -1)
	{
		MessageBox.Show(strExc.Substring(pos+5,strExc.Length-(pos+5)));
	}
}

Note: in relase mode this inoformation will not generated to enable it in your project Build configration check Generate debugging information look at Printing Line Number with an exception in Release Mode[^] for more informaton

Hi All,
I was just wondering how to invoke a process under different security context with the specified credentials over network only, I used P/Invoke to call CreatProcessWithLogonW but since I had to use it with ASP.NET application p/Invoke was failing though It was working fine with Desktop application (Probably due to some security problems of IIS), I came to know that in .net2.0 things are pretty simple and I need to call only Static member Start of Process class by passing credentials but this is not invoking process instead I am getting error logon failure, I suppose this problem is becuase I don't know how to set logon flags which we could set in createprocesswithlogonw function..Can anyone tell me how to start a process using the specified credentials on the network only in .net2.0.

It is possible to update the text of a text box in the main form from another class in the application. Proceed something like this…

string test = "Listening:";

// Get the instance of the main form called "Form1"(presuming that it is the currently active form)
Form currentForm = Form.ActiveForm;

//Set the text of the textbox (named "StatusText") on the main form
((Form1)currentForm).StatusText.Text = test;

Ashok Dhamija

C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\C# CLASS\ClientWithDialog\cApplication.cs(29): The name 'currentForm' does not exist in the class or namespace 'ClientWithDialog.cApplication'
C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\C# CLASS\ClientWithDialog\cApplication.cs(28): The type or namespace name 'Form' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

This are my error..

The situtation is this.. i got a console program. which im tryin to rewrite into a application base one.

it a simple tcp/ip program
where by the StatusText textbox is suppose to change according to what the class throw at..

example when connected..( procedure in class)
it suppose to update the status text box in the form i created.

hope for some hint

As you had not mentioned that it is a console application and as you had referred to your main Form as Form1 in your sample code, I had presumed that you are using a Windows Forms application. In a forms application, the error mentioned by you is due to the missing "using" statement. Use the following "using" statement at the top of the class coding:

using System.Windows.Forms;

But, in the situation described by you, and to the extent I could understand your problem, you should have the reference to the instance of Form1 on which the "StatusText" textbox lies, and then may simply use code like this:

string test = "Listening:";
Form1.StatusText.Text = test;

Hope it works.

Ashok Dhamija

Therefor i try
Form1.StatusText.Text = test;
and
ClientWithDialog.Form1.StatusText.Text = test;

Updating data in Form A from form B?

Johan Glysing6-Sep-05 20:17

Johan Glysing

6-Sep-05 20:17

Hi, im pretty new to c# and have a data management question.
I have a windows application and 2 forms.
Form A is the main application form and form B is opened from form A and contains
a CheckedListBox with 5 selections.

Now my problem is that when ive checked my coices and close form B, i need to get the data from form B and update some events based on the choices in form A.

I opened an instance like this:

GetForm getForm = new GetForm();
getForm.Show();

But i guess i have to have a check like this:
if (getForm.ClickedOK() == true) { process data }

And some way to retrieve the checkedlists to read them in form A.
Also, how can i show form B in a modal way?

Thanks in advance
