Hi,
I have a variable which contains file path called filename and I use this variable to start a process like this: Process proc = Process.Start(filename); If I pass path to a text file then everything work well, but if I create a shortcut for that text file and use it to start a new process, the return value is null. Why does it happen? Apart from that for some executable files the return value is also null. I've checked msdn and according to it null is returned when there already exists same process but it's not the case.
How can I retrieve the process started in this way if the return value is null? Do I have to use winapi?
Thanks

Not every process returns a value either.
Launching a shortcut just doesn't return a value. You can launch the .EXE, or whatever document, directly and get the return value (if there is one!), but launching through a shortcut drops the return value.
There is no way to retrieve the return value if the one you get back is null.

I've developed a pretty robust app as one of my first projects. It's a windows app in C#. I'd like to know a little more about how Visual Studio compiles everything, and what all these resource files are..etc. I guess I expected everything to just compile into a single executable. (I'm used to console applications) .. What files are required, and what files are simply there for debugging? What's an Application Manifest file? and a Program debug database? Why are my output files in a funky three extention format? (ex. project.vshost.exe.config) etc.. Any links to resources would be helpful. Thanks everyone.

i am working in MS Access...........when i put a command button on Access form and go to the buildEvent......code builder..........a VB file opens....... i have no idea of VB how can i change settings so that i can code in C#

You can't. Access uses VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), not C#, to write code.

what you need to do is create a project in C# and connect to access the same way you would any other ODBC compatible database. There're tons of examples if you google on it.
Otherwise [Microsoft is] toast in the long term no matter how much money they've got. They would be already if the Linux community didn't have it's head so firmly up it's own command line buffer that it looks like taking 15 years to find the desktop.

how i can validate rdf's xmlns in c#
i.e.
<rdf:rdf xmlns:rdf = "http://www.here.com/why_the_how/rdf"
xmlns:rdfs = "http://www.there.com/how_the_why/schema"
xmlns:ex = "http://www.my.fake/animals">
here what i write so far:
if (output != "" && Regex.Match(output, "<[' ']*['\n']*[' ']*[a-z0-9]+[' ']*:[' ']*rdf[' ']*['\n']*[' ']*[xmlns[' ']*:[' ']*[a-z0-9]+[' ']*['\n']*[' ']*=[' ']*['\n']*[' ']*\"http://www.[a-z0-9]+.[a-z0-9]+[[/]*[a-z0-9]*[[_]*[a-z0-9]+]*[/[a-z0-9]*]*]*\"[' ']*['\n']*[' ']*]*>").Success)
but when duplicate an xmlns it say it is not valid

I didn't study profoundly your ex. pattern, but I think you should you some method as string.Split or something for each xmlns or http that appears in your string.

This is the method I use to do what you are talking about. It does what you were trying to do with WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name. I would be willing to bet that it isn't working because the process you are calling from is a service running on local system. Run it from a windows process and I bet it works.
public static string getCurrentUsernameAndDomain()
{
WindowsIdentity user = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
return user.Name;
}

Hello everyone, If you have time, I need some suggestions.
I am making a mileage calculator, it is a project I thought up for me to gain some c# coding skills. Anyway, my dilemma is as follows.
I have a form with 6 combo boxes, one is a "START" and the other 5 are optional "ENDING" routes. Basically, someone can select "Indiana" on the first combo box and select "Akron" on one of the others, hit the calculate button and it will tell the mileage.
I have a DataTable set up with 3 columns "FROM|DEST|DIST" so it would be like
"Indiana" "Akron" 120
"Indiana" "Kalamazoo" 211
"Kalamazoo" "Phoenix" 1100
My problem is when i populate my first combo box with the "From" category, I get tons of duplicates, as there are many names in the from category that are the same. How Im adding data is below (Yes its being hardcoded, I dont know enough about databases to set one up yet)
xDt_List = new DataTable();<br />
<br />
xDt_List.Columns.Add("Start", typeof(string));<br />
xDt_List.Columns.Add("Dest", typeof(string));<br />
xDt_List.Columns.Add("Dist", typeof(short));<br />
<br />
DataRow xDr_Row = xDt_List.NewRow();<br />
<br />
xDr_Row["Start"] = "Indianapolis";<br />
xDr_Row["Dest"] = "Kalamazoo";<br />
xDr_Row["Dist"] = 211;<br />
xDt_List.Rows.Add(xDr_Row);<br />
<br />
xDr_Row = xDt_List.NewRow();
and so on and so forth...
Thank you for *any* suggestions on how I could make this a little more effecient ect.

DataTable.DefaultView.RowFilter = "Start DISTINCT";
ComboBox.DataSource = DataTable.DefaultView;

Hi. Im sort of a newbie in C# but i have a task for my graduation subject to create an application - a game or some sort of a quiz. Anyway, the application itself is not a problem. The problem occurs at the end of the game, because i had an idea that the player will get a diploma at the end of the game.
The diploma should look like this: The background is an old scipt (the game occurs around the 16th century) and on this script is some written text. There should also be an option to print out the players name.
So, please explain, if you can, if it's possible to edit an .doc file with some objects already present in the file (text, background) and add some text (the players name) in the middle of the page.
I know that printing some text, directly from a C# application is possible, but a file? and before printing, editing this file?
Is it complicated? If you could please add some code at your reply.
Thanks in advance,
Max
ps: sorry for my bad english.

I think the easiest way to do this with Word would be to use the VSTO[^].
However, a better approach might be to investigate the PrintDocument[^] and related classes[^] so you can roll your own solution.

Thank you for your fast answer. I will check those things out... but can anyone gime me an particular example? something small, just to see how it would look like. To read the file, edit the file and print it out.
Anyway, i will take a look myself at those links and try to find my own solution, but i doubt that it will come out soon  my deadline is in a month.
Bye,
Max

 Hi
I'm looking for a calendar that on which to add holidays etc onto, I've seen the month calendar and this is just what i am after with the exception that I would prefer to see a whole 12 months and not just 1 month at a time. Is there any way of doing this??
Thanks
Scott
I'm trying.......very trying
|
|
|
|
|
The normal way to do this (a la Outlook) is to display 12 of the calendars.
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks Pete,
That was my thinking, though with the standard monthcalendar it can be expanded to show the 12 months and i was just wondering if this could be applied with the added customisation
