That works fine at run time, but does not show up in the designer, even if you do the work before the InitializeComponent call in the constructor. I am thinking I am just going to have to manually define the table schemas in the dataset and have them filled at run time for the clarity I am going for. It is a bit more work and debugging but those are the breaks I guess.
Thanks for helping keep me from going too far off on a tangent. It's kind of weird to mention this but even my horoscope that just hit my hotmail is in agreement with you.

Hi, I am working on a .net c# windows application in which I use a webBrowser control. In the control I open an external webpage that has a login page and I fill in the username and password from my code behind. But I don’t know how I push the login button or execute de page. Is there someone out there that can give me a hint of how to do that?

First you need to know what the id is of the button you want to click. Then you have to get the object type it correctly and do the .click() method for that type.
If you haven't already I would add a reference to the microsoft.mshtml.dll This will give you access to the mshtml namespace which has all of the objects you might want to use their types.

Dear All,
i have developed a desktop based application using C#.NET, which require access to some USB based devices.
I have to use this application on target PCs in which the USB port is disabled by the system administrator.
From the application, i wants to enable & disable the USB drives programatically, so that no other application can use the USB ports, as per configured by the system administrator.
ie, enable the USB port before the application require access to the USB port it & disable it after the use.
I need to achieve the same when the application is running in a login, who doesn't have administrative rights.
Is it possible to achieve the same using .NET framework?
Do any one knows how to implement the same. If so, please inform me.
Best Regards,
Abhilash Chandran

Using the standard drivers for USB, you can't do what you want, no matter what language you use. Hardware is shared system-wide and is completely abstracted from your application, giving you no control over access to the USB ports. You would have to write your own USB drivers in order to support this.

I have a Windows Form app that contains a combobox (as a dropdownlist). I am able to populate the combobox. However, I am seeing some strange behaviour when I try to set the SelectedValue to an item in the list.
This is how I populate my combobox:
Method 1. This works.
// The "" indicates no custom first row. GetList() returns DataSet.
cbState.DataSource = GetList("spGetStates", "");
cbState.DisplayMember = "Text";
cbState.ValueMember = "Value";
cbState.SelectedValue = "AL" // This positions correctly
Method 2. This does NOT work.
// The "--" indicates first row in combo will contain this value. GetList() returns DataSet.
cbState.DataSource = GetList("spGetStates", "--");
cbState.DisplayMember = "Text";
cbState.ValueMember = "Value";
cbState.SelectedValue = "AL" // This does NOT position correctly.
The only difference between Method 1 and 2 is that Method 2 inserts a row into the dataset. If I were to use "AK" in method 2, it would work correctly. There is something about the second row in table.
Here is the method that populates DataSet:
public static GetList(string spName, string FirstRow)
{
// Populate dataset. Some code left out to keep it simple
ds = ....;
if (FirstRow.Length > 0)
{
DataRow row = new DataRow();
row["Value"] = FirstRow;
row["Text"] = FirstRow;
// Add row to top of list
ds.Tables[0].Row.InsertAt(row, 0)
}
}
Here is some sample data:
EXAMPLE 1 (using "--" parameter)
value text
------------
-- --
AL Alabama
AK Alaska
EXAMPLE 2 (using "" parameter)
value text
------------
AL Alabama
AK Alaska
Any thoughts on how to get the positioning to work for Method 2 using the value "AL"?
Thanks.
Steve

I am not totally sure I understand the question, but you can not set the selected item by setting the selectedValue or selectedText. You can only set the selected Item by using the SelectedIndex and SelectedItem. If you want to select AL then you would need to do something like:
You might need to loop through the comboBox to check the value and find the index.
cbState.SelectedIndex = columnIdx
Hope that helps.

I have seen a way to do this a week ago, but cannot find the link. I want the user to view all the items in the combo box, but I don't want them to change the value. Has anyone seen this link or know the answer? The combo box is on the form. It is not in any other control. Thanks

Combobox1.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.DropDownList

I have tried this already and it still allows the user to select another item (other than the original selected item) in the dropdownlist. This is what I want to prevent. I want them to view it, but not select another item. I want it locked.

Then why you are not using ComboBox1.Enabled=False after Selecting the item.......Moreover what do u actually want to do by that...why are u using combo when u dont want your user to select item from it???I am bit confused.....

Hi. I ended up temporarily doing the following:
F2.cmbPub.SelectedValue = strPub
F2.cmbPub.Enabled = False
F2.cmbPub.DropDownStyle = ComboBoxStyle.Simple
This disables the box showing the selected value only. I am coming from a browse screen that has a datagrid with 2 unbound boolean columns, Edit and Delete. The rest of the columns are bound. When I check the Edit box it shows the detail screen with the information for the selected item. I just wanted to be able to allow the user to display the values in the combo box, but not be able to select from it. I wanted the default to be the selected value.
I will use the above code for now, but just wanted to know if there was a way to do it. Thanks.

I have a windows form with a datagrid control. I bind the grid to my datasource and then add 2 unbound boolean columns. I create a tablestyle so that I can display these columns (Edit, Delete) in columns 0 and 1 before the bound columns. I can check the check box in the column and it branches to where I want it to go, but unless the row and column coordinates are (0,0) it does not display the check mark until I exit my other app and return to the grid. I displayed the value in the column and it is set to True.
I added the code from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms996485.aspx to make the check box respond to one click.
How do I get it to show the mark prior to the DataGrid MouseUp Event? That's where I branch to my other app. I have turned off tristate.
I want the user to see the check mark when they first click the check box.
Thanks.

I'm amazed that you think that you can leave an interview, look for help from people and then go back and answer the question. The fact that you have posted this question here shows that you are not the right person for the job. Do you think that we should get in touch with this director and let him know?

You're right - I'm not qualified to give you the answer. I'm only a software professional with over 20 years experience and I've only been using .NET since the first beta. Oh yes, I also own a software company and do the hiring - so I definitely know nothing.
