You can search for DataGridView Printer (I used one before) here on CP, if that's your question Smile | :)

I have a test

if (element.Value.ToString().ToLower() == "home owner")<br />
        {<br />
            summaryHomeOwnerTextBox.Text = "Yes";<br />
        }

How can I test to see with the string "home owner" is contained within element.Value.ToString().ToLower() please?

This namespace is found in these assemblies:
System.Printing.dll

not exactly, i needed to add a reference to the ReachFramework.dll because the System.Printing.dll doesn't contain it

Perhaps it was once in System.Printing.dll before, This[^] was one of 2 hits from google for "System.Printing.Activation" (with quotes), but I guess you're right, good find!

Ahh A little more searching took me to here,[^] which shows the dll you spoke of also listed as containing that namespace.

Good job

Changing amount of a const variable at the run time !

Hi.

I wanna know , Can we change amount of a const variable at run time for ever.
I mean , when we change the amount, it will be firm even after closing and running the Application again.

Thanks

You can use readonly instead of const and you can save that value in an XML file, txt, database etc.

Hope this helps Smile | :)

Hi,
I believe changing a CONST type in the runtime is merely impossible... because its a compile-time constanst...

If you want to assign a value at runtime only for once and after if you want to deny any changes then you can use readonly.

However all this concepts are valid only when the assembly is loaded in to the memory.. means only while the application is running.... Once the application is stopped then, all the variables and objects in the program is lost whatever the type(CONST or ReadOnly doesnt matter).

If you want to retain the changes even after the application is closed, then saving the data in a separate file and accessing it, as and when required is the possible solution.

Have a Happy Coding.....

You can distribute the source file with the application, include some code to parse the source, find the text where the const variable is defined and change it. Then your program merely has to rebuild itself, exit and start the new version. Laugh | :laugh:

Totaling and averaging column in datagridview [modified]

Martin310888-Apr-09 2:47

Hi guys,

I've got a windows form with a datagridview linked to an access database. The third column in the datagridview is a list of numeric values. On load up I would like a textbox to display the average of all the values in this column. Can't quite figure it out.

Here's the code I have written:

<br />
int Counter = 0;<br />
double AverageCalc = 0;<br />
<br />
while (Counter < datagridview.Rows.Count)<br />
{<br />
    string Average = null;<br />
    Average = datagridview.SelectedRows[Counter].Cells[2].Value.ToString();<br />
    AverageCalc = AverageCalc + Convert.ToDouble(Average);<br />
    Counter++;<br />
}<br />
<br />
AverageCalc = AverageCalc / datagridview.Rows.Count;<br />
txtAverage.Text = AverageCalc.ToString();<br />

It loops through once, and then fails at:
Average = datagridview.SelectedRows[Counter].Cells[2].Value.ToString();
When Counter = 1

I'm not really sure what else to try, any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Martin

its because you have only one row SELECTED and you are looping through all rows in datagridview

try

Average = datagridview.Rows[Counter].Cells[2].Value.ToString();

to loop through all rows
or

while (Counter < datagridview.SelectedRows.Count)

to loop only through selected rows
