In VS 2005, Assuming that you have opened form2 like this:
Dim form2 As New Form2<br />
form2.Show()
Then you can close form 1 like this from form 2:
Form1.Close()
The only problem is that if you do that, Form 2 will close as well (since form 1 created the form 2 instance). So you would have to have another form or Main routine to control all the form open and closes.

Run your application on Vista. That'll do it.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

Should one assume they developed Vista based on the characteristics of his machine
and the requirements of his app?

Only can be done by running Vista. If you want to have Vista-like forms in XP/2000, it cannot really be done.

I am sure there are probably some tricks out there to simulate it though.

Hi,
Upon clicking a treeview node, the following events fire (correct me if I am mistaken) - Click and AfterSelect.
In the Click event I want to perform a test and optionally prevent the node that was clicked upon from being selected. I think I have to prevent the execution flow from reaching AfterSelect? Is there a way of "cancelling" the click event or otherwise achieving this?
I do have a work around - a form level boolean variable that I set True if I want to cancel - in AfterSelect if this is set True then it exits the AfterSelect event handler function. But this seems at best a kludge.
Many thanks in advance!
- Anthony

Sometimes that just happens to be the only case.

Hay Lo Guys,
Any ideas how can we update our database(sql) by editing the values (adding rows or editing existing data) from DataGridView in the Win form?
Thanks

Use the BindinNavigator component
|
|
|
|
|
Well, binding navigators requries a datasource and a datamember to work in case of the dataset. I am using the business object.
Is there a reason why binding navigator does not recognise the business objects?

I am developing a new Windows database application in VB 2005. To date I have been using the .NET version of Crystal Reports to provide reports for my applications. Rather than attaching these reports to the database directly I pass in a custom DataSet at runtime to give me more flexibility.
This has worked fine to deliver my reporting requirements but I have come across many issues mainly to do with the memory overhead and bugs in the crystal designer and viewer control.
As I am about to start a new application I have the option of using the Microsoft ReportViewer in local processing mode instead. From my initial reading to achieve the same thing as what I have done with crystal I would create a custom class to pass the data through at runtime.
I just wanted some advice as to whether I would get any benefits of using the Microsoft reporting control over the crystal one. Does it manage memory better, or at least allow me to recover memory, and does it have all the features of crystal?
Alternatively are there any better third party reporting tools for .NET that are better? After a quick search on google I found Report Sharp-Shooter by Perpetuum Software and Stimulsoft Reports.NET. Does anyone have any experience with any thrird party software and if so are there any significant benefits over those shipped with Studio?
Any advice from experience would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Jason

Have you found any others that might be good? I am in the same boat...

I have a DataSet called ‘exportDefsDataSet’, with two tables, ‘ExportDef’ and ‘ExportDefItem’. The data set contains a relation, ‘ExportDef_ExportDefItem’ that relates the two on ExportDefID. This represents a set of export definitions, and definition items within the export definition, i.e. one export definition has many items.
I have a form with two binding sources on it, ‘exportDefBindingSource’ and ‘exportDefItemBindingSource’. The DataSource of the ‘parent’ binding source is set to ‘exportDefsDataSet’ and the DataMember to ‘ExportDef’. The DataSource of the ‘child’ binding source is set to ‘exportDefBindingSource’, and the DataMember to the relation ‘ExportDef_ExportDefItem’.
I have a ComboBox bound to ‘exportDefBindingSource’ and a BindingNavigator and two textboxes bound to ‘exportDefItemBindingSource’. When I select an export definition in the combobox, I can navigate between the definition items for that definition, but chaos ensues, as often the selected definition disappears from the combo box, or the items for another definition appear in the textboxes. I am battling to reliably preproduce this behaviour, as often the setup works correctly, and after after a seemingly random number of navigations does everything go bad.
Let me describe a typical scenario:
I start the application, and the first definition, “Access Accounting” is automatically selected, and the BindingNavigator correctly navigates between the items for “Access Accounting”. The next definition is “AccpPac DOS”, and if I select it, the correct items for “AccPac DOS” are available, BUT, “Access Accounting” is no longer visible in the ComboBox! Now there are two “AccPac DOS” entries, and the first one of them selects the items for “Access Accounting”. Now I select a third option, “AMS”, and get the AMS items, but now I have two AMS entries, and the first one still points to the “Access Accounting” items. The ComboBox is thouroughly out of sync, but I can’t find why.
I do not believe they are right who say that the defects of famous men should be ignored. I think it is better that we should know them. Then, though we are conscious of having faults as glaring as theirs, we can believe that that is no hindrance to our achieving also something of their virtues. - W. Somerset Maugham

Have you tried with other icons? 123.ico may be damaged in some way.

There are many ways, but your post is rather vague.

hi, can i click a button in a child window once i get the button's Handle?
i don't want to use SetCursorPos() combined with mouse_event() to click on a button cause i don't want the Mouse cursor to move/change position.
thanks

If you only have the handle to the button, you would have to use SendMessage[^] to send a BM_CLICK[^] message. This[^] describes how to use SendMessage in C#.
If you have the actual .Net Button object, you can use the PerformClick[^] method.
Take care,
Tom

I am working on an application that must respond to a combination of keys, no matter which application the user is currently using, and that must know what is the application where the user was. I am using for this a keyboard hook, like in the article http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/globalhook.asp
The problem is that after responding to the hook, the only way I can think of to find out which application the user was using is to call GetTopWindow() and then find out the process to which the window belongs. The code returns always "ctfmon.exe". I don't know if this happens because the hook is triggered by ctfmon; in this case, how can I find out which application the user was in?
Can anybody help me?
See the code below:
<br />
[DllImport("user32.dll")]<br />
static extern IntPtr GetTopWindow(IntPtr hWnd);<br />
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]<br />
public static extern uint GetWindowThreadProcessId(IntPtr hwnd, out uint lpdwProcessId);<br />
<br />
void FindWindow()<br />
{<br />
string processName = "Unknown";<br />
<br />
IntPtr pTopWindow = GetTopWindow(IntPtr.Zero);<br />
<br />
uint processId;<br />
if (GetWindowThreadProcessId(pTopWindow, out processId) != 0)<br />
{<br />
Process runningProc = Process.GetProcessById((int)processId);<br />
processName = runningProc.ProcessName;<br />
}<br />
<br />
processNameLabel.Text = processName;<br />
}<br />
Thanks a lot,
Alex
