Sorry, I did use a double backslash I just changed the code to a different path to be simpler. Thanks though,

I figured out the answer thanks to another user's post on a particular article here.
To access a password protected database you can add another part to the connection string. I added this to the end of it and it works like a charm.
jet OLEDB:Database Password=mypassword;
I'm not sure why the password needs to be listed twice, but it seems to work. I also had issues doing this with Toolbox>Data>OleDbConnection wizard that matched my results pretty well. Hardcoding the connection string with that added fixes it though.

Hello,
The 'kernel32.dll' funktion 'SetLocalTime' will help you.
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.StructLayoutAttribute(System.Runtime.InteropServices.LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct SystemTime
{
public short sYear;
public short sMonth;
public short sDayOfWeek;
public short sDay;
public short sHour;
public short sMinute;
public short sSecond;
public short sMilliSeconds;
}
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport("kernel32.dll")]
public static extern bool SetLocalTime(ref SystemTime time);
Hope it helps!
All the best,
Martin

Hello,
I am working on form application with 1152*864 resolution.
If i changes my screen resolution and restart the application then some controls(textbox, picture box etc) on the form and not getting adjusted according to new screeen resolution.
I have enable anchor in all direction for all control.
What should i do so that my application works smoothly for all screen resolution.
Thanks.

I doubt that is a good idea.
You might want to spend some time thinking about how best to anchor your controls.
Anchoring a control that sits at the top left of the form in all directions will just make it expand when the screen size increases - You probably don't want that to expand in all directions. You probably only want it to stay in position relative to the top left of the form.
You might decide that a text box is something that would be more useful if it stretched width-wise. In that case anchor it to the left and right. And controls to the right of the text box should be anchored to the right, but not the left.
In short, think about what anchoring actually does. There is no one-size-fits-all to apply to all controls. You actually have to think about how you want the form laid out.

That's not how it's done. You just drag n drop and click a bunch-o-stuff until "it works"
If it works, do it.
If it works, do it it works.
seems to probably
If it ^ work s, do it it ^ works

and once you go beyond a very basic layout and want something like a proportional split between two elements instead of having one fixed and the other doing the resizing you have to start writing some manual code in the onResize event anyway.

Design the controls runtime, according to its left,right,top,bottom and with respect to different controls already present their according to your need.

I read in configs from XML and one element is converted to an ENUM
enum SOURCETYPE
{
XML,
SQL
}<pre>//all error checking removed (for a laugh)
//other bits removed but you'll get the idea
SOURCETYPE _myType;
string myString = myXmlNode.Attributes.GetNamedItem("type").Value;
switch (myString.TrimEnd().ToUpper())
{
case "SQL":
_myType = SOURCETYPE.SQL;
break;
case "XML":
_myType = SOURCETYPE.XML;
break;
}
Is there a better / quicker / more CSharpish way of doing this? If I had loads of types it would be a big case statement to change "TYPE" to SOURCETYPE.TYPE.

Yeah - I just done what I tell others to do and googled. You can vote me a '1' on purely on hypocrisy grounds alone!!
Thanks though. Good to have it confirmed.

In your case a 4 is enough of a punishment. But don't do this again.

Hypocrite. I should have googled first.
SOURCETYPE type = (SOURCETYPE)Enum.Parse(typeof(SOURCETYPE), myString);

Hello,
If you add the bitmap to the BackGroundImage property of your PictureBox (or Form), you could use the MakeTransparent method of Bitmap class, like this.
Bitmap YourBmp = new Bitmap(yourFormOrPictureBox.BackgroundImage);
YourBmp.MakeTransparent(YourBmp.GetPixel(0,0));
yourFormOrPictureBox.BackgroundImage = YourBmp;
