You can use excel object library to convert the generated file to excel native format

You can use that article to generate xml file and then convert it to xls using this piece of code:

 <br />
private void savetoexcelformat(string currentpath, string pathtosave)<br />
{<br />
object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;<br />
<br />
Excel.Application app = new Excel.Application();<br />
app.Visible = false;<br />
<br />
app.Workbooks.OpenXML(currentpath, missing,missing).SaveAs(pathtosave, Excel.XlFileFormat.xlWorkbookNormal, missing, missing,<br />
missing, missing, Excel.XlSaveAsAccessMode.xlNoChange, missing, missing, missing, missing, missing);<br />
app.Quit();<br />
<br />
}

The leave event occure when i push the tab button
What happen with me is when i put the first digit the leave event is called

this the code:
private void txtNewExpDate3_Leave(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string val = this.txtNewExpDate3.Text;
if (this.txtNewExpDate3.TextLength.Equals(1))
this.txtNewExpDate3.Text = "0" + val;
}
and the MaxLength for the txtNewExpDate3 is 2

I do the same code is the same event in other textbox and it work properly.

Thanks in advance

Hi Assaf

I tried to recreate the bug you stated...but on my machine the code given by u works just fine..i.e. only when u press "TAB" key, does the leave event fire and not in any other case..please retest your code.

thanks and regards

Hello sir/s, im pj.. how can i assign a shortcut key on a certain button, instead of putting an Ampersand ("&") besides the text of the button.. For exampe.. instead of pressing ALT + (the access key) for a button.. i would like only a single key.. like "ENTER" key to be associated with a certain button.. please Give me a sample code or any directions.. Thank you so much..

Trap the key you are interested in and invoke the event handler for the button or menu item

Sir, Thank you so much for replying on my message. Can you give me a sample code? I'm really having a hard time figuring out the event handlers, because i tried putting up some codes on the "KeyPress" event, but i only ended up having more errors. Thank you again sir.

Giorgi Dalakishvili4-Sep-07 22:44

What errors are you getting? You can check it like this:

<br />
private void Form1_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e)<br />
       {<br />
           if (e.KeyChar == (char)Keys.A)<br />
           {<br />
             //A was pressed<br />
           }<br />
<br />
           if (e.KeyChar == (char)Keys.B)<br />
           {<br />
             //B was pressed<br />
           }<br />
       }<br />

Yes sir.. but i did it this way.. i was trying to designate the Keypress Event of a Button.. For example.. [Logout] Button..
if ( (e.KeyChar).ToString() == Keys.Escape)
{
if (MessageBox.Show("Do you wish to exit?", "Exit", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) == DialogResult.No)
return;
this.Close();

}

But its not working..

1. If you want to quit your application when escape button is pressed then set form's cancelbutton property will help you.

2. You can test it like this:

<br />
 if (e.KeyChar == (char)Keys.Escape)<br />
                MessageBox.Show("escape was pressed");<br />

It works in the same way for Enter key too

Thank you so much sir.. I was trying to associate the "ENTER" and "/" key for the Event of a Button's Click.. But i could not make it work.. this is the error..
"Error 1 Operator '==' cannot be applied to operands of type 'char' and 'System.Windows.Forms.Keys' ".. I believe that the "Enter" Key is a windows forms key.. how can i CAST it to be something else..

Giorgi Dalakishvili4-Sep-07 23:11

4-Sep-07 23:11

Did you cast it to char as I showed in the example?

Thank you so much for that sir.. It works.. Sir, how can i can assign a hotkey to a Button?.. Ahm, for example.. I want a Button_Click event to be associated with a shortcut key.. Instead of me Pressing the Button itself, i just have to press a key from the keyboard.. like; Pressing the F2 key to be associated with
the Event of a Click of a Button.. Im really sorry for this sir.. I ask a lot of questions. I'm just new to C#, and I'm only a student.
