Re: [C# + GDI] Transparent Panel : refresh problem - C# Discussion Boards

How do I write a code in C# with following functionality:-

The program will search and pick a code from a repository.
Then it will deploy the code to some other machine.
It will also maintain a log of transaction.

Using the keyboard.

(If you want a more specific reply, you have to ask a more specific question.)

single minded; short sighted; long gone;

Situation is like this:

There are too many code versions in our local repository, I need to make a program to pick up the required code for the application and deploy it on another machine outside our local network.
We have 3 applications to be run and it depends on user/client to choose which application version has to be run.
There are 5 versions for each of the 3 applications.

Can there be some build program written for it.....to pick a code version from a machine with IP address xxxxxxxxxxxxspecified by user/client and deploy it on another system with IP address yyyyyyyyy.

Salut,

Hello Every Body,

I want to populate the grid view from the data base but i m not able to do so,

Actually i want to show selected feild only through coding,

Why not? Is it a knowledge constraint or a coding constraint?

You will have to explain this better because at the moment i dont understand what you are asking\looking for.

Hi,

Thanks for replying me.

Actually i want bind selected columns only.

And i want to add edit button , delete button and an dropdownlist box in gridview

this is which i m not able do.

Regards,
Karan

monuSaini wrote:

I am assuming you are using VS2005 here.

If you have your grid bound to a datasource then use the grids "Edit Columns" property in design view to remove the columns from the datasource that you dont want to appear in your grid.

monuSaini wrote:

You can add unbound columns which contain buttons etc again by using the Edit Columns option in design view.

If you need to access any of the controls you add then there are many articles on the web explaining how to do this. Take a look at the following article within the code project articles section.
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/AccessingControlsInsideGr.asp[^]

I hope this helps in some way.

Hi,

Yes i m working in VS2005

And also want to tell you that i m working on datagridview of windows application. In this i m not able to add button.

Regards,
Karan

rahul saini

Try looking at this page:

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zkatshfa.aspx[^]

It explains how to add unbound columns to a gridview through code. There is also a link on the page which will take you to a step by step guide of how to add buttons through the designer.

If this is no help then here are the steps i followed:

1. Create a new windows forms application.
2. Add a data gridview to the form and bind it to a data source. (Customers table on the Northwind database)
3. Right click on the grid view and select Edit Columns.
4. Remove the columns you dont want to display from the data source.
5. Right click the grid view and select Edit Columns.
6. Click the Add button.
7. On the Add Column window select the "unbound column" option box.
8. Change the Type combo box to be DataGridViewButtonColumn
You now have a column which will contain a button.

Unless there is something i am mis-understanding then this should do what you were asking.

// Fill dataTableObject with your desired data
// and bind it to your grid view

datagridview1.datasource=dataTableObject;

and if you're doing in asp.net then,

gridview1.datasource=dataTableObject;
gridview1.databind();

ExecuteScalar is a method so it needs () at the end

Hi. Im making a database application for viewing/editing/searching. Im using the DevAge SourceGrid for database handling. I was told to ask on another forum becouse it was not a SourceGrid related problem. It works as it should in the its current state, but it need to evolve to be able to support more Tabs with grids then only one at a time. so I thought I should solve this dynamicly. I have writen a function that can be used to fill new Tabs, with a Panel and inside this Panel two datagrids. This function can be used to fill these dynamicly created datagrids and fill them with diffrent information from diffrent dataset's.
The problem is Im not sure how to determin what dynamicly created datagrid is currently viewed, and there for be able to be controlled and modefied by new values or what ever should happend with database releated functions as refresh,fitler,update info and so forth.

It is the "maDynamicDataGrid" I belive, I need to know the diffrence between these dynamicly created datagrids.

This is the response line I got before i got here.
"You must read the Tab structure and iterate on all the controls (Tab->Panel->Grid ...)"

Im posting code of the function for creating the dynamic Tab, with the grids.

I have created an enumeration in the class named abc.cs and placed that in the App_Code directory

<br />
public enum MyEnum<br />
    {<br />
        alfa = 1,<br />
        beta = 2,<br />
        gamma = 3<br />
    };<br />

I have to access this and display in the list control of a webform .

can anyone help me with the corresponding syntax.
i will be thankful to you.

Sebastian

You should place it within a namespace:

namespace MyProject.MyEnums
{

public enum MyEnum
{
alfa = 1,
beta = 2,
gamma = 3
};

}

then, you should be able to access it anywhere. To get it's value in your aspx, you need a code block:

<%# MyProject.MyEnums.MyEnum.alfa %>

for example.

In your code behind you can put a using statement for the namespace, or access the enum by the full name.

Hi,
Thank you very much. Everytime you are there to help me.
In this scenario i have to know all the members of the enum. but if i use a file to store the values the updations will reflect in the webpage automatically. is n't it?
is there any better alternatives?

Thanks once again

sebastian
