What does your question have to with Windows Forms?

I'm not sure whether this can be achieved, but here goes.
I have created a new color dialog for a simple html editor. I would like to packeage the form into a dll, so that when added to a project, the dialog appears in the toolbox. I am using C# express 2005. I can achieve this when creating a normal control but I am stumped when it comes to having a form in the dll instead.
If anyone has any ideas as to how to achieve this, or even a small demo, I would be truly grateful.

This is actually done quite frequently. It wouldn't be a Control in the DLL, but rather a Windows Form in the DLL, which you can initialize and invoke just like you would with any other form outside of the DLL.

Hi, Yes I can do this. What I want to achieve, is see the form like the current colordialog in the toolbox to the side of the design window.

In design view, just right-click on the Toolbar, choose "Add/Remove Items" and select your custom library that contains your control. You can only do this for custom controls though, not for actual forms.

Then you need two things. You need the custom control with a designer implementation so it can be in the toolbox and dropped on a form by a developer. The interface (API) you create for the control supplies the mechanism that is used at runtime to launch the Windows Form that is also in the assembly (or in another assembly I suppose).

OK. I am being a bit slow with this. So could you point me in the right direction to achieve this please. If I get it sorted I will post the dialog as an article.

I doubt you will find an example of doing exactly what you intend. You need to piece the inforamtion together. I suggest you first learn how to create a custom control. That's pretty simple but then you need to learn about implementing the Visual Studio designer support. From there you should be able to see how your non windowed control is used by a developer to implement the showing of the form that is in the assembly. My original post contains the key words you would use in google to start researching, something like:
MSDN Windows Forms custom control designer

Hi
Yep, started doing a few google searches and I have come up with a few links, so hopefully I am on my way with it now.
Thanks for the help, and if I get it sorted I will post the control as an article.

I have a ClickOnce application downloadable on the web set to be Online only - no install on user's machine.
One user couldn't get it to work. Then, looking at screen shots she sent me, realised that the custom error messages did not match the text that I could see in front of me in VS.
So I changed the title of the form in question, bumped up the build number, just to be sure there hadn't been a typo and I was publishing a lower number, re-published and when the screen shots came back, it was an older version of the app that was running(which doesn't exist on the web server)
It works perfectly on my PC.
The user claims to have cleared all Temp files and browsing history to no effect.
All I can think of is that this might be related in some way to the WINDOWS\Prefetch folder. Could the app have gotstored on the PC even though it's designed not to install locally?
Anyone have any ideas?

Yes and I used that article as a basis to create a framework for a solution. I basically refactored that design to use Generics in .NET 2 platform to eliminate the use of "object" all over the design. I have found it very useful so far.

2 points.
1. This is the Windows Forms forum, not the ASP.NET forum. Please don't post into inappropriate forums.
2. You're trying to show a messagebox in code that runs on the server, where normally there won't be a logged in user. Don't do it.

You are best to ask asp.net related questions in the asp.net forum.

Step one - rephrase your question so it makes sense. Do you want to launch a second form ? Pass data between forms ? In any case, it sounds like the logical answer to this question will be to tell you to buy a basic book and work through it so you have a rudimentary understanding of the framework you're using.

OK, it's as I thought. Programming is more than dragging buttons onto a form. You create an instance of the new form in the click event and you show it. If you can't understand what I just said, that just proves you need to buy a book.

Hello,
i am working on C# 2.0 winforms.
I have a ListView, in this there are 5 columns, in second column an icon need to be displayed.
my code as follows...
listView1.Columns.Add("");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("two");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("three");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("one");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("two");<br />
listView1.Columns.Add("three");<br />
<br />
listView1.FullRowSelect = true;<br />
listView1.GridLines = true;<br />
listView1.View = View.Details;<br />
listView1.SmallImageList = imageList1;
<br />
for (int I = 0; I <= 10; I++)<br />
{<br />
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem("");<br />
item.SubItems.Add("");<br />
item.SubItems.Add("aaa"); <br />
item.SubItems.Add("bbb");<br />
item.SubItems.Add("cccc"); <br />
item.ImageIndex = 0;
listView1.Items.Add(item);<br />
}
my problem is... item.ImageIndex = 0; is showing icon in only first column. i have to show icon in second column.
how to to do?
any sounds will be greatly appriciated.
