You might try in the C++ forum, instead of the C# forum Wink | ;-)

What identifier is undeclared?

Have you tried this:

System.Array myValues = (System.Array)range.Cells.Value;
myValues = (string [])myValues;

yes Idid but it didn't work
What I did is I wrote a function that takes a System.Array variable as a parameter and returns a String[] array by converting the elements one by one.
it works but I would like to if there is a function to do that in one line of code.

string [] stringValues;
System.Array myValues = (System.Array)range.Cells.Value;
 
stringValues = new string[myValues.Length];
 
Array.Copy(myValues, stringValues, myValues.Length);

That should work, let me know if it doesn't.

I didn't work. I got the following message
"The specified arrays must have the same number of dimensions."
cause the myValues is a 2 dimensional array.
when I replcaed the StringValues with 2 dimensional array
I got the following:
" At least one element in the source array could not be cast down to the destination array type."
this type is double data type.
I am still in this problem !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mad | :mad:

Directory List Box

4-Jun-02 3:42

Hello everyone !!!
In so many applications, I have seen a button "Browse", which fires up a simple tree-based directory picker, a small pop-up window that allows a user to pick a directory and click either "OK" or "Cancel" buttons. There is a similar control in VB 6.0 called DirListBox.
However, I have not found anything like that in C# - and I thought that C# is great GUI language for Visual C++/MFC developers Frown | :(

Does anyone know ???

Thanks a lot in advance.

Accessing methods/properties in the initial form...

Andrew Connell4-Jun-02 2:16

Andrew Connell

4-Jun-02 2:16

I'll start with saying that it's somewhat difficult explaining exactly what
I am having trouble with, so bear with me..

My application loads an initial form (MainContainer). This form, uses
another class file (PAMenu) within the project to build & return an object
containing a control menu. The PAMenu contains all of the menu
construction, changes, and event handlers. It uses a 3rd party control
(MagicLibrary) to build the menu (giving it the OfficeXP/VS.NET menu
appearance). My problem is that I am having trouble accessing methods &
properties in the MainContainer form from the event handlers. Here's a bit
of code:

[MainContainer]
private PAMenu thePAMenu = new PAMenu();
appMenu = thePAMenu.Menu(); // builds the menu with default settings & display settings
Controls.Add(appMenu);

[PAMenu]
//this simply builds the menu and contains event handlers
//the internal menu object is called 'theTopMenu'

[MagicLibrary]
//this control overloads the MenuControl and MenuCommand objects

I have no problem handling events if they don't interact with the
MainContainer or it's child forms (such as the Exit handler running
Application.Exit()), but calling a public method within MainContainer just
isn't working. I've tried the following from within an event handler in
PAMenu:
this.theTopMenu.ParentForm
which gave me access to the default properties of the MainContainer form (I
was able to change the text in the titlebar), but I can't see my exposed
methods. The odd thing is that I can see some of the private properties
when stepping through intellisense.

Any ideas?

Just cast to you class:

(MainContainer )(this.theTopMenu.ParentForm).SomeMethod()

Re: Accessing methods/properties in the initial form...

Or do this:

Then:

mc.SomeMethod()
mc.AnotherMethod()

Thanks for any suggestion.

you need to make sure that your project is linking with this library, LIBCMT.LIB.

Reading/Writing to *.INI files

tigre2153-Jun-02 8:23

3-Jun-02 8:23

I'm creating an appliation that reads/writes from/to files that have the same structure as an INI file. Win32 includes a few methods to read/write keys, section, etc. I've tried to do this using C# but it could not compile. It inidcated that the methods I was using (e.g. GetPrivateProfileInt...)were not recognized or not included in any of the namespaces.

Does C# support the use of these functions? If so, under what namespace?
