I am creating a folder watcher application.
If a new powerpoint file gets added in the folder it should get started automatically.
So if I put .pps file into the folder then and I say
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(fullPath);
it works fine.
This is not the case with .ppt files
Only the powerpoint application gets started not the slideshow.I want the slideshow to be started.
I have done some R & D and found that Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint will help and done something like this
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application ppApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application();<br />
ppApp.Visible = MsoTriState.msoTrue;<br />
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Presentations oPresSet = ppApp.Presentations;<br />
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint._Presentation oPres = oPresSet.Open(e.FullPath,<br />
MsoTriState.msoFalse, MsoTriState.msoFalse,<br />
MsoTriState.msoTrue);<br />
But this is also doing the application open not the slideshow, does anybody have any idea?
Also I want rest all powerpoint presentations gets closed and only currently added powerpoint application gets started as slideshow.
Thanks in advance,

I'm not sure how possible that is. If double clicking doesn't open PPT, then PPT is not responding to being passed the application as a command parameter.

Thanks for quick reply,
I am not very much clear with your answer.
Actually I want the ppt application start automatically when it gets placed in the folder under watch.

Assuming you have a FolderWatch watching on the folder, when a file is placed in the folder, run Process.Start("YourPPTFileName"). It will open the PPT file in associated application.

yes. You are correct. This code segment will start the ppt application, but i want to start the slideshow.... not the applciation...
If u use the same code segment for .pps files, it will start the slideshow directly....
The same thing I want with .ppt files.....
I know there is a way with
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application ppApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application();
And inside this there is an event named "SlideShowBegin" but I am not getting how to use this event to start the slideshow....

Thanks friends for your valuable replies. The main problem is solved of launching the slideshow of .ppt files.. with the help of this code
<br />
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application ppApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.Application();<br />
ppApp.Visible = MsoTriState.msoTrue;<br />
Presentations ppPresens = ppApp.Presentations;<br />
Presentation objPres = ppPresens.Open(e.FullPath, MsoTriState.msoFalse, MsoTriState.msoTrue, MsoTriState.msoTrue);<br />
Slides objSlides = objPres.Slides;<br />
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.SlideShowWindows objSSWs;<br />
Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint.SlideShowSettings objSSS;<br />
<br />
objSSS = objPres.SlideShowSettings;<br />
<br />
objSSS.Run();<br />
objSSWs = ppApp.SlideShowWindows;<br />
while (objSSWs.Count >= 1) System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(100);<br />
<br />
objPres.Close();<br />
ppApp.Quit();<br />
Now I want to close all the running powerpoint files and only want to run the current one only...
Does any body have any idea?

First off having urgent in your subject line is really irritating and almost made me not answer however...
Why not close or kill off powerpoint and then restart it when you detect the file using filewatcher. That way you will only have your powerpoint open and it will display.

Thanks for ur compliment...
Actually I had implemented the things that u have suggested now...
but my requirement is a bit different.
I want to close the powerpoint presentations in the specifiec folder only and not all the powerpoint presentations.....
That's the reason i need some technical help for acheivning this...
Thanks,

Like I told you before, it's probably not possible.

I have some Doc files that I need to read content of each of them and write them into a for example textBox or richTextBox.
How can I do it ?
Thanks in advace

Google broken where you live ? You need Word installed and you need to control Word through C#, there's a Microsoft Office Toolkot or something for doing that.

salam
i think u have to use a openfiledialog, select the file and do like this
myrichtextbox.Loadfile(myopenfiledialog.selectedfile,RichTextBoxStreamType.RichText)
i think this ll solve ur problem

This is totally, utterly incorrect. An rtf and a doc are two different things.

I'm trying to create a website with youtube APIs using C# 2008 (.NET), Being a beginner and getting my feet wet with this, I wonder if anyone can give me some tips n tricks, or possibly an example code/ step by step instructions on doing this.
I've read the 'Developers Guide: .NET' on the code.google.com site and it's like trying to learn french through the internet  if you know what I mean. I have made sites before but exclusively with html and css.
Main Questions:
1.What exactly do I write the C# language in? (Im using C# 2008 however how exactly do I put this on my webpage???)
2.I would loove to see a FULL snippet(s) on an actual page with youtube APIs (or any APIs for that matter, since I have not found anything with FULL code start to finish) that I can copy and paste into whatever it is I put the C# language in and try to view it on my webpage and modify it from there.
3. The Developers guide gives this:
The following code retrieves a YouTubeEntry corresponding to a video on YouTube
String videoEntryUrl = "http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/videos/ADos_xW4_J0";
YouTubeEntry videoEntry = (YouTubeEntry) service.Get(videoEntryUrl);
Console.WriteLine("Title: " + videoEntry.Title.Text);
Console.WriteLine(videoEntry.Media.Description.Value);
I would like to know WHERE DO I PUT THIS CODE??
I am a person that learns very well visually, so pictures/code snippets/ illustrations are better than words, unless they're instructions of course. I guess you can understand the urgency of knowing this for me, thanks alot for all help 
I'm sure one developer can help another developer
Thanks

You should download the Web Developer Express Edition, it helps you create ASP.NET sites.

A youtube video is just going to be embedded HTML, they would just have a control you use, I assume.

Well, I am not sure you know anything about ASP.NET at this point. Console.WriteLine won't help you, unless this program just emits HTML that you then embed in your aspx of your page.

If you would like to learn asp.net and c#, then I would advice this book:

I want to read/parse the tablular data from a pdf documents. I have found some third party softwares which can covert the entire pdf to text preserving the layout(display). But none of the tools provide pre-defined seperators/delimiters between the text of each cell.
I has also investigated for some tools which can covert this pdf to html which can then be parsed. But even in the html files the entire table is represented by absolute positioned divs. It would've been easy to parse tables from HTML.
Is there any way I can read the tables from pdf document in some object(which can be easily represented in terms of rows and columns)? Or is there any third party developer library using which I can easily read the cells of a table in pdf?
Please let me know even if there is some third party software to convert the pdf containg to html document representing tabular data in html tables
Thanks in anticipation.

I'm trying to call a function in a third party dll. the SDK defines the function like this:
long GetConnectStatus (
VARIANT * varState,
VARIANT * varError,
VARIANT * varBytesIn,
VARIANT * varBytesOut,
VARIANT * varDuration
)
and further clarifies the first 4 arguments as Variant long (VT_I4) and the last as Variant string (VT_BSTR)
C# wants:
int iPhoenix.GetConnectionStatus(ref object varState, ref object varError, ref object varBytesIn, ref object varBytesOut, ref object varDuration)
i have this:
Int32 cs = 0;
Object objConState = (object)cs;
Int32 se = 0;
Object objServerError = (object)se;
Int32 bi = 0;
Object objBytesIn = (object)bi;
Int32 bo = 0;
Object objBytesOut = (object)bo;
string du = "";
Object objDuration = (object)du;
phx.GetConnectStatus(ref objConState, ref objServerError, ref objBytesIn, ref objBytesOut, ref objDuration);
It doesn't work!?

Hi all, I need some help on this item that I've been working on all day. I'm trying to extract text from a word document and save the data to an Oracle database while retaining the text formatting (Bold, underlines ect). The text is within word tables in the document so I'm accessing the text by interating through the table cells and getting the text as follows; oWordTable.Range.Cells[iRowIndex].Range.Text.ToString(). This works to get the text but I lose the text formatting. I've converted the doc to rtf and have the same results.
Is there a way to extract rtf from a specific Table Cell?
Thanks in advance, any advise is much appreciated.

This really irks me. The Text property is already a String, so calling ToString on a String is pretty pointless.
Your getting the Text of the document using the Text property. You don't automatically get RTF coded text when you use the Text property. Even if it was an RTF document, you have to get the RichText, not the Text.
Also, RTF does not support all the formatting capability of Word. If, in Word, you save the document as an RTF document and lose the formatting, chances are really good that RTF doesn't support what you're trying to get.
