I'm not sure if this is a .NET framework issue or a windows XP to Vista transition issue but I have an application I've been developing in VS 2008 (C#), .NET framework 2.0, on a windows XP machine. Recently, my team was told that we needed make sure this was vista compatible so we moved over to a machine running vista and framework 2.0 and noticed that the background colors to the combo boxes had lost their backcolor property. When the page loaded the color would flicker and then go to the default grey. At first we thought it was a theme overriding out property so we disabled the theme first through windows and then in our code using uxtheme.dll, each to no avail. Thus far the interwebs have yielded no results so I'm wondering if this is a random act of God.

Vista adds more styling to comboboxes than Windows XP did. You may have to rewrite the graphical code for those comboboxes if possible to make it more appealing under vistas themes.
As far as code is concerned, you should have absolutely no problem with moving it vista/.NET 3.0. The only problem is with overriding graphical themes/control aspects.

Yeah, to solve the problem we had to change around a few things and make some sacrifices as far as a machine using vista is concerned. We just changed the style to "flat" whenever we detected Vista. It's not as pretty but it's a fairly quick and easy solution.
Thanks for you reply. Much appreciated.

Hi, im a newbie, and i now the answer is probably very simple but i just cannot figure it out. I would like to get the datagridview to STOP taking the first row as the columnheader. i hav tried using DataGridView1.Columns(0).HeaderText but iv realised it doesnt stop taking the first row as the column header but it simply replaces the text in that column header but does not do what i want. Any help is much appreciated
PS i am using vb

Do you mean that you don't want column headers? Have you tried setting the ColumnHeadersVisible property to false?

how do you get values from text boxes and then use them?
thanks

You have to use the Text property.
The String^ value can be converted to a number
using System::Convert::To[Type].
([Type] = Double, Int32, ...)

string A;
int B;
A = textbox1.text;
B = convert.toint32(textbox2.text); // if possible!!!

I am pretty certain that you need to buy MSDN library, it also comes with the purchase of the VS products. I don't know if you can get it for the express versions.
Otherwise you can use the online version, however most developers use Google, you get MSDN + community information.

I need to display a BrowseFolderDialog that contains a checkbox.
I have found a SaveFileDialog from CP[^]
that allows to add any control in SaveFileDialog. I need the same for BrowseFolderDialog.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I believe you will have to resort to Windows API.

Why don't you write code & we'll check it? This isn't rent-a-coder you know.

Hello,
i am using VS 2003 and/or VS 2005
In C# i want to the accomplish following task:
i want to have a user control that supports multiple checkboxes in it.
the number of checkboxes and the text of these boxes should be dynamically changed.
Depending on the layout of the user control these checkboxes should be aligned horizontally or vertically.
i.e. I say control shall have 8 checkboxes and each checkbox shall have its on descriptive Text.
then these checkboxes should layout themselves left to right or top to bottom depending on ratio height to width of the user control.
I managed to build that user control, but i dont really know where to add / delete the checkboxes
in design time.
At the moment, i create the array that holds the checkboxes in the constructor (both runtime and design time).
Depending on the number of desired checkboxes, which is set via a property i dynamically grow or shrink this array.
I dont know where i should add these checkboxes to the usercontrol. When i add them in the Paint method, i have to delete them before i add them new.
Maybe someone can help me with an easy example.
Greetings Wolfgang
