You could use the Form Load or Activated events. In the case of Activated, you may need to set a boolean variable to prevent taking care of your action twice.

Actually the Load event fires before the form is loaded, but the activated event works just fine.

Hi,Everyone!!
make string = "31323334" ('31','32' ... is HEX) to string = "1234"???
who can help me?

Are you dealing with just numbers, or letters too: 656667="ABC"? If you're dealing with just numbers, you could employ a cute trick and get rid of the first, third, fifth, etc. '3' character (I can't remember if 30=ASCII '0' though).

Hi all,
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
...
[DllImport("ole32.dll")]
public static extern long CLSIDFromProgID(string ProgID, out Guid clsID);
...
Guid clsID;
long ret = CLSIDFromProgID("Excel.Application", out clsID);
if(ret==0)
System.Console.WriteLine("OK.");
else
System.Console.WriteLine("Fail.");
I use above codes for checking Microsoft Excel is installed or not. But it doesn't work at all, even if I already installed Microsoft Excel.
Are there any missing in my codes?

Hi Stephane,
Thanks for your help.
I changed my codes as you suggest but it still doesn't work. I think I don't set type of parameters accurately.
Do you think my declaration below is correct?
[DllImport("ole32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern long CLSIDFromProgID(string ProgID, out Guid clsID);
Many thanks.

The return type is a 32-bit integer, which is int, not long.
Have you tried:
Type Excel = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Excel.Application");
if (Excel == null)
Console.WriteLine("Fail.");
else
Console.WriteLine("OK.");

Can you explain what you're trying to do?
If you're trying to drive excel, you'd do that through COM interop, not through P/Invoke. You do that by adding the excel com component to your project (or through tlbimp if you don't have vs).
|
|
|
|
|
How would such an interop assembly behave on a system where excel is not installed? Would it crap out on me while loading the application or would it throw a bunch of exceptions at me when I try to instantiate the COM-objects?

Hmm. I don't know the answer to that.

I didn't know we'd made those available.
The page you link is correct, you should use the primary interop assemblies rather than rolling your own.

Any special reason for this?

The big reason is that they're signed.

I was only being facetious. Just trying to lighten things up in the C# forum. No bad feelings?

This much (holding hands about 3 feet apart)...
Perhaps "released" would have been a better term.

Okay. Just wanted one more reason to work at Microsoft...

Thanks for your reply.
I use Microsoft Excel Object Library to create and edit on Excel files. So I have to make sure that Microsoft Excel is already installed. I also want to check I can use ADOX on the user's computer or not. I think if getting CLSID of these components successfully, I can use them. Is it right?

How do I programmatically change a tab control that exists on another form?
|
|
|
|

What about the tab control do you want to change? One of the tabs, the color, the placement? What?
