Thank you for your reply
If we have a table like this
Customer Details:
Customer Name E-Mail Phone Job Date
John John@gmail.com 34567 Code 31-01-09
Mary Mary@hotmail.com 67890 Design 01-02-09
Swetha Swetha@live.com 87654 Testing 02-02-09
then the Print View of this should look like this.
Customer Name E-mail
John John@gmail.com
Mary Mary@hotmail.com
Swetha Swetha@live.com

34567 Code

i.e., each column of the Customaer Details Table should be displayed in a separate individual tables.
ex:if the table have 10 columns then in Printview 10 invividual tables for these columns chould be displayed.
How to display it dynamically in a windows form.Note that the number of columns and rows will vary dynamically

OK, it's actualy very easy thing to do.
The main idea is to use the subreports option in the crystalreport item.
You need to add a new DataSet item to your project (Add new item -> c# -> DataSet)
In this new dataset add new datatable and add rows according to your original table (i.e. Name, Email, and etc.) This DataSet will not be used to host the data, rether this will only be used to set as a Template for your report.
You add a CrystalReport item to your project (Add new item -> Reports -> CrystalReport)
In the wizard just choose standard and finish the wizard after doing so.
Now you should have a blank report with 5 sections.
Right click the the white blank area in between "Section 3 (Details)" to "Section 4 (Report Footer)" and choose insert -> subreport.
In the dialog the opens up choose "Create a subreport with Report Wizard".
Name the report with the title of what you wish to display (i.e. Name) and click on "Report Wizard..."
A new dialog name "Standard Report..." should opens up.
Expand Project data -> Ado.NET DataSets -> YOURDATASETNAME and by clicking the double arrows to the right of this treeview add your datatable to this report. after doing so click next.
now add only the field you wish to display on this table (i.e. Name). Click Next and now you can either finish or click next to the end.
Up until now you have created the first section wich will show only the names!
In order to show other columns, one under the other, you need to add more sections.
Right click the Gray Title named "Section 3 (Details)" and choose insert section below.
Now do the same to add subreport with your desired column. keep adding sections for each column you wish to display.
In order to display your report you need to do three things.
Add a CrystalReportViewer object to a Form.
By using the code, Attach your data to the report and the report to the viewer.
YourCrystalReport objReport = new YourCrystalReport();
objReport.SetDataSource(YourDataSet);
TheCrystalReportViewerObject.ReportSource = objReport;
good luck...

When typing in the method during writing the code, I noticed that Visual Studio display the description of the method on what it does. I know I found info somewhere in the past but can't find it!
How do I do that on my code so it would be easier for other developer to know what these methods are for. It'll be useful for the method overloading.
For example, when you type as follows:
MessageBox.Show(
you'll get the message saying from the tip as follows:
1 of 21 DialogResult MessageBox.Show (string text)
text: The text to display in the message box.
|
|
|
|
|
type '///' before the method and it will autotype a summary
i.e.
void DoStuff(string s)
{
}
|
|
|
|
|
THANKS! That's the answer I wanted! That's even better than the info I found in the past (manually doing the tips via xml).
Now I see why the sample codes elsewhere use /// stuff. I had no idea why coders use 3 slashes.
THANKS A HEAP! That's a new lesson I've learned today.

No Probs  , took me a while before i learnt that too, is very useful thou

It also gets used to provide the documentation you see in CHM files. If you have this before a method, choose the documentation options in your project you can produce a documentation file that you can use to create a help file from (using a utility like Sandcastle).

I am not sure if it's even possible to do this but I am trying to print out a list of various data but I don't want to put a datagridview in the form. So my question is this. Is there someway that I can build a string to skip to a certain point like something the tab might do so I could have what would look like columns?
|
|
|
|

Ignoring the fact that you haven't mentioned any details regarding how the string is to be processed (do you want to select specific parts of it?), I assume that the "certain point" that you want to skip would be likely to be different from string to string, so...
You could create an object that accepts a string in the constructor call, and then implement an override of the ToString() method that accepts an enum (again, one that you define) that can change the way the string is processed.
Or you could simply write a method that processes the string according to the enum value passed as a parameter.
It's almost impossible to provide relevant advice with so little to go on.

honestly I don't really know.
First of all this is for my programming project for my .net course so that should tell you how new I am.
I basically have a list of books, but for each book there is a name, publisher, unit cost, copies ordered, and total cost. I must print the list out, but I want all the items to be lined up so it don't just look messy. I could go about it another way if you have a suggestion, I just don't know.

Create the string and use "\t" where you want the tabs.
Hope in one hand and poop in the other; see which fills up first. Hope and change were good slogans, now show us more than words.

Or you could use padding. For example you can define 200 characters for the title by padding all book titles during print out.
string sCurBookColumnValue = "MyBook".PadRight(200).
Do this for all values, this will format your string while writing it on the console.
|

Ahhh, so you need to parse the string, and then you want to make it pretty when you print by lining up columns of data...
I'm assuming that it's a console application (because making it pretty in a forms app would be much easier, and less work to boot).
You could brute-force it and use string.Format to pad each string, or you could read in the data, parse each string to find the longest name, publisher, etc., and then format with appropriate padding for each column. I think he first way would earn you a passing grade, and would take far less time, but the second way would teach you more (and be more fun besides).
Which path will you take?
My advice is to satisfy the minimum requirements by doing it the first way, but then do it the second way and if you finish it in time, hand the 2nd version in instead.

Looking for some ideas on a framework for managing a 2 dimensional(dynamic size) array of objects. Something like a grid where one can access by row and column
|
|
|
|
|
Would a System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<tkey,> suffice?
I are troll 
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe you could try a List of Lists?
then write a function for getting with row column parameters
|
|
|
|
|
List<object> objCols = new List<object>();
List<list> objRows = new List<list>();
object GetCell(int row, int col)
{
return objRows[row][col];
}
Not tested but something along those lines perhaps
BTW 'List' can be found in System.Collections.Generic

Yes this sort of makes sense. I'll have to play with it a bit
thanks.

Use the Dictionary object.
