Hello my fellow CPians.
I have read articles on creating templates and user controls but I dont think that will solve my problem, so I figure what better place to ask then here?
The best way for me to explain my problem is with an example.
Lets say I have a widgit.
This widgit has 3 pieces, each piece has it's own characteristics..
What I would like to do:
The Page will bring up general information about the widgit it's self.
Then under that a multipage strip with a tab for each piece.
Click on the tab and a Page gets generated using a template page with the controls and eye candy required. These generated pages will need to interact with the server to get and update information.
Is it possible to create a template page that has all the controls I need then use that page to generate new pages on the fly? I really dont want to have to keep re-writing the same code over and over again. Each page will be exactly the same.
Thank you for your help,
Will O'Malley

Hi!
I have a few instances (say 10) of a UserControl, each with 5 properties, on a Form. I want to implement a "Copy From" function that works the following way:
1. The user can right click on any UserControl. The right click menu allows the user to select a Copy From menu item which springs up a ToolStripComboBox with a list of other similar controls.
2. Once the user selects an instance of the UserControl in the ToolStripComboBox, that UserControl's properties are to be copied to the current UserControl.
Each UserControl has a ControlID property that is unique to it (listed in an eControlID enum.) This property will not be copied over. However, the ToolStripComboBox is populated with all the IDs (say A...Z) to help the user identify the UserControl whose properties he wants copied.
I have got this far:
<br />
private void ContextMenuCopyFrom_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
this.ControlID= (eControlID)ContextMenuCopyFrom.SelectedIndex; <br />
}<br />
How do I actually figure out which UserControl has been selected to copy from and then copy the properties.
I figure it'll be something like
<br />
this.Property1 = UserControlSelected.Property1;<br />
this.Property2 = UserControlSelected.Property2;<br />

You can go through the Controls collection of the form and check the type of control.
If the control is of the same type of your user control, match the ControlId with the controlId selected in the combo.
If matches, thats the control user wanted.
Every bit counts ADD

Is there any way of doing this without using a collection of controls? Can I match the SelectedIndex to a member of the enum and then copy the properties of that particular object?

i will explain...
i downloaded the code, saved in a local directory, clicked on .csproject file, and run the program, it works and i could send mail.
then i created a new windows app, tried to include system.web.mail namespace in it, but i cant ( when i press ctrl+space after system.web, i get nothing.) but when i press ctrl+space after system.web in his program, i get web.mail. We both have done windows program. Do i need to set anything more?

You probably are missing reference to System.Web assembly.
Go to Solution exporer, veiw the references under the project, if you dont find System.Web listed there, Add it.

I'm having trouble reading data into a strongly typed dataset from an XmlReader where the data is held as attributes rather than elements. I retrieve two document types and have an XSD for each. One is a standard results document and the other is an error one, formatted as:
results:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<result id="123" generated="3456789" account_id="1">
<field1>FIELD1DATA</field1>
<field2>FIELD2DATA</field2>
<field3 />
</result>
error:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<result error="001" severity="1" message="Record not in database" />
I'm able to populate my dataset from the 'results' XML doc without any problems (and can read the attributes as well) but the 'error' XML doc doesn't populate any rows into the dataset, even though the XSD defines the attributes as data fields:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata" xmlns:b="http://schemas.microsoft.com/BizTalk/2003" id="ResultError" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:element name="result">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:attribute name="error" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="severity" type="xs:string" />
<xs:attribute name="message" type="xs:string" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:element msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true" name="ResultError">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element ref="result" />
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
Can anyone shed any light on this? The worst case I can figure is that the ReadXml() function reads the InnerXml property rather than the OuterXml one and therefore discards the attributes but I can't believe that this is actually right...
Thanks in advance

I have a task to deploy a multistate treenode that will display disabled text if the user is not authorized to modify/view the contents of the treenode item. 
I have everything implemented.  But I was wondering if anyone knows of the "standard" for displaying disabled text in a control. I assume first off that the text background color = the control background color. But what should the ForeColor be set to? SystemColors.? I was hoping there was a SystemColors.DisabledText.....but no luck. Has anyone done this?

Try this
System.Windows.Forms.ControlPaint.DrawStringDisabled()
with color
SystemColors.ControlLightLight
or
SystemColors.Control

Hi all,
is there a simple way to sort dates in a listbox with the dd.mm.yyyy format, so that the dates are shown in correct asscending order ?
tnx
|
|
|
|
|
Sort them prior to populating the listbox, specifically when they're in the DateTime format.
If you get them as strings, then just convert them to DateTime, sort, and then populate the list with the dd.mm.yyyy format of the sorted DateTimes.
|
|
|
|
|
There are many approaches to this request.
One approach is to create your own listbox that takes your own listboxitem. The listboxitem class you define would contain the date as part of the data to display, and your listbox class would do the sort prior to repainting the view each time.
Since ListBox takes and object as its collection, and does the display by calling .ToString() on the object, you can control what the display looks like, the order of the objects, and just about everything else...all while using mostly the base methods.

Hi ..Condor,
thanks, I think that's a practical way, either the data can change or can be expanded.
tnx

Hello,
when I add a custom ToolStripItem (derived as shown below) to a ToolStrip at designtime in Visual Studio 2005, it crashes Visual Studio after ca. 3-4 times adding...although my class works quite well when I add it manually to the ToolStrip at runtime...
This error seems to arise only when I use the DateTimePicker control, with other controls there are no problems...
<br />
[ToolStripItemDesignerAvailability( ToolStripItemDesignerAvailability.ToolStrip)]<br />
public class ToolStripDateTimeItem : ToolStripControlHost<br />
{<br />
public ToolStripDateTimeItem() : base(new DateTimePicker())<br />
{}<br />
}
So here is my question: does anybody got this kind of problem as well...and if so, is there a Service Pack already available for VS 2005 which solves this problem?

Best thing to do is to go to http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio[^] and search for the issue, and if not already known, enter a new bug.
If it's really a blocking issue for you - you can't wait for a subsequent service pack, because I think SP1 is now entering final testing - then you'll have to call MS Product Support and see if they can issue you a hotfix. Generally your support call is refunded if a hotfix is issued, although this isn't completely guaranteed.

Hello,
I have a TableAdapter, and have SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, and UPDATE stored procedures assigned to it. However, if I use:
<br />
PropertyInfo commandsProperty = type.GetProperty("CommandCollection", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance);<br />
SqlCommand[] commands = (SqlCommand[])commandsProperty.GetValue(tableAdapter, null);<br />
I get only one command item, specifically the SELECT stored procedure. Does anyone know why?
Thank you.
