Reading Characters At MouseLocations AB777124-Jul-06 4:17 AB7771 24-Jul-06 4:17  Hi all, I guess all have used the Babylon software One of the feature of Babylon is if we click on any word in any window it reads that word and displays the meaning of that word. I also want to read the word when the mouse is clicked on it. The word can be on any window, IE or desktop i.e. anywhere. Any pointers or references to the same will be appreciated. Thanks & Regards, Pramod Re: Reading Characters At MouseLocations Gavin Roberts24-Jul-06 5:55 Gavin Roberts 24-Jul-06 5:55  the functionality is easy, just use a httpwebrequest to google and use define: {word} but the only way I think it could be done without some magical code is to watch the clipboard and run code on it when ever it changes to get the definition. Unless anyone else comes up with something more interesting? Gav webbrowser automation in .net 2.0 Green Fuze24-Jul-06 4:16 Green Fuze 24-Jul-06 4:16  Hey everybody! I'm writing automation using the webbrowser controller. I already wrote this kind of automation in c# 2003, but this time I'm encountering a silly problem that I just can't find an answer to.

THANKS! Re: webbrowser automation in .net 2.0 LongRange.Shooter24-Jul-06 6:28 LongRange.Shooter 24-Jul-06 6:28  You might get a faster answer if you post it in the ASP.NET forum. C# DirectX Overlay seq-24-Jul-06 4:00 seq- 24-Jul-06 4:00  Hey all! Id like to write a piece of code which would display some text in directx. But Id like it to display it while playing an online game (so that why playing in a corner there would popup a halftransparent text about some statistics, for more details: the online game is called America's Army ;]). But Im now quite sure how to do it, so that the game wont minimize itself, like the communicator: xfire does. Have anyone already tried that ? I would appreciate for any help or example code in C#. With regards, Pawel Re: C# DirectX Overlay Gavin Roberts24-Jul-06 5:52 Gavin Roberts 24-Jul-06 5:52  no real need for using directx, you can use a simple windowless form and set the transparency color the same of your background, tip: I usually use Magenta. Now you can position your form where ever you want, and it will display the text as required. Just make sure what ever you want to show isn't the same color as the transparency color.

Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 2:50 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 2:50  Hi, If the current day is anything less than 10, I want to save it to a string variable as 01, 02, 03, 04, etc. How does one do it like this? I tried the follwoing, but it prints out as dd: string strYY = String.Format("{0:dd}", objDateTime.Year); Is this correct? If so, why is it not working? Regards, ma se Re: Date Formatting stancrm24-Jul-06 2:55 stancrm 24-Jul-06 2:55  string strYY = objDateTime.Year.ToString("D2"); Re: Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 3:08 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 3:08  Thanks for the help. Where did you get D2 from, what I mean is, what else can a person use? Re: Date Formatting stancrm24-Jul-06 3:12 stancrm 24-Jul-06 3:12  From MSDN. See this: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dwhawy9k.aspx Re: Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 3:14 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 3:14  Can you please elaborate a bit more on D2? Re: Date Formatting stancrm24-Jul-06 3:15 stancrm 24-Jul-06 3:15  See the description in MSDN. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This format is supported only for integral types. The number is converted to a string of decimal digits (0-9), prefixed by a minus sign if the number is negative. The precision specifier indicates the minimum number of digits desired in the resulting string. If required, the number is padded with zeros to its left to produce the number of digits given by the precision specifier. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Re: Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 3:20 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 3:20  Thanks for the help!! Re: Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 21:36 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 21:36  Hi, Sorry to bother again. I have a similar situation where I have a drop down, and the value of each item is the ID. How do I format this like D2 and put it into a string? I used this and it didn't want to work, please advise what I am doing wrong: string strOrderType = cboOrderTypes.SelectedItem.Value.ToString("D2"); It underlines cboOrderTypes in red saying: The best overloaded method match for 'string.ToString(System.IFormatProvider)' has some invalid arguments And it underlines "D2" in red saying: Argument '1': cannot convert from 'string' to 'System.IFormatProvider' So I did it like this which seems to work, but isn't there a shorter way than doing first a conversion to int, and then back to string again? string strOrderType = Int32.Parse(cboOrderTypes.SelectedItem.Value).ToString("D2"); Please help. Regards, ma se Re: Date Formatting stancrm24-Jul-06 22:26 stancrm 24-Jul-06 22:26  I don't think so. Because "Value" can be object or string. It can be also "0005" or "XZTR". You must first convert string -> int -> string. Re: Date Formatting Brendan Vogt24-Jul-06 22:28 Brendan Vogt 24-Jul-06 22:28  Thanks for that!! radiobutton Mamphekgo24-Jul-06 2:49 Mamphekgo 24-Jul-06 2:49  Hi i have created a form with two radiobuttons Administrator and user.i want to insert either of this radiobttons to database so the problem is it only insert user.my line of code is like this. Level= (rdbAdministrator.Checked)?"Administrator":"User"; Re: radiobutton stancrm24-Jul-06 2:59 stancrm 24-Jul-06 2:59  Just use the event from rdbAdministrator_CheckedChanged and rdbUser_CheckedChanged and then use your code in the both methods. Try to debug, in my code it works just fine. Probably you have another problem, I mean not in this line of code. a little help in creating a chess game ThetaClear24-Jul-06 2:18 ThetaClear 24-Jul-06 2:18  Hi I'm just starting to build a chess game and I ancounted a problem. I have a PictureBox control with a picture of a piece. I tested to see if I can move the piece by the "Mouse up" and "Mouse down" events. For some reason when I press, move my mouse curser and then leave it, my PictureBox always goes to the upper left corner of the form. I used the debuger to check what's going on, and I saw that in the mouse up event I'm getting a point that's not related to the location of my mouse curser when I leaved (always in the upper left corner). I was told that there are local and global coordinates. Why am I getting in the mouse up event those values? how can I get the Picturebox values relative to my form? The code is very simple. On the mouse move event the code is: bool IsPressed = true; on the mouse up event the code is: if(IsPressed == true) { IsPressed = false; PictureBox.Location = new Point(e.X, e.Y); } How can I solve it? is ther a better way in your opinion to do it? thanks Re: a little help in creating a chess game rah_sin24-Jul-06 2:32 rah_sin 24-Jul-06 2:32  try out following codes Point screenPoint = PointToScreen(new Point(e.X, e.Y)); Point parentPoint = PictureBox.Parent.PointToClient(screenPoint); PictureBox.Location= parentPoint; rahul Re: a little help in creating a chess game ThetaClear24-Jul-06 3:12 ThetaClear 24-Jul-06 3:12  It still doesn't do it. I want to understand something: the point that I insert in the property section of the picturebox is the point of the picture box relative to the form? the point that I'm getting in the mouse up event is a point of what? thank for your help Re: a little help in creating a chess game Robert Rohde24-Jul-06 3:21 Robert Rohde 24-Jul-06 3:21  ThetaClear wrote: the point that I'm getting in the mouse up event is a point of what? This one is relative within the control your mouse cursor was over when it was pressed. Re: a little help in creating a chess game ThetaClear24-Jul-06 3:36 ThetaClear 24-Jul-06 3:36  thanks for the answer. Ok. so it's relative to the form, I assume. How can I get the point of the picture box when I move it, by the mouse down and mouse up events?
