Hi Harvey

My post is not pointless, I think you didn't understand it as you may be "stupid or something"

My problem is that, I'm working in an application in which I manually simulate some control appearance and draw them in a high resolution image to be printed, now when drawing a Label I need to determine the point(X, Y) on which I print the Label text, as Label.TextAlign may vary from MiddleCenter, to BottomLeft, to TopRight, etc.

Now, can you - as a "Professional" developer - help me??
I don't think so..

Even if my question is pointless, it's not enough reason for you to insult me

Sorry, but you are not a respectable person

You won't get the location of the text, you can take location of the label instead. Check label.Bounds which gives you a Rectangle instance.

Sorry, but I don't understand how could label.Bounds help me to determine the location of text on Lable??

The bounds (which is type Rectangle) has members for top, bottom, right, and left. (left, top) gives you the location of the label's upper-left corner.

I guess if you want to know where exactly the text is painted within the label, you'll have to get the control's graphics object, determine the text size with its MeasureString methhod, and calculate the position with a lot of if statements according to alignment and things. But that's kind of like reinventing the label.

Hi Frank

yes that is exactly what I need and I already calculated the position but it's not accurate, so I was asking if there is an existing method to do

There is no equivilent in ADO.NET, it works in an entirely different way. Your best bet is to Google ADO.NET and read up on datareaders and datasets.

Hope this helps

The SqlDataReader has no such method, please take a look at this below:

SqlDataAdapter s = new SqlDataAdapter("...sql...", Conn);
DataTable dt = new DataTable(); ;
s.Fill(dt);
DataRow dr = dt.Rows[dt.Rows.Count - 1];

Hope it's usefull for you!

I want to have a tree node selected when the page loads. I have the number or ID or value of the node when the page loads. how do i achieve this? please help.

Hi.

first you have to find the node:

TreeView.Nodes.Find

Then select it:

TreeView.SelectedNode = <your selected node>

And you can do other stuff:

TreeNode.Expand();
TreeNode.EnsureVisible();

Hi Kjetil,
Thanks a ton.

It didn't work. Maybe you are talking about a windows-based TreeView control. I am using the control on a webpage. The TreeView.Nodes.Find function doesnot exist.

In that case you may have to iterate through all the nodes and check it's value/ID or whatever you need - when you find a match, set the selectednode property and break out of your loop.

If you go to the top of this page you will see a textbox labeled SEARCH. Try that, there are loads of articles and code samples. If that doesn't help, try Google, again there are lots of very good examples.
