Try it on yours - move it, twiddle with the scroll wheel, and press the button - it's like pat your head / rub your stomach! Keyboard means you can divide the work between two hands, and makes it simpler...

Of course the easy answer is to just plug in an XBox joypad - that's what I do

I did indeed spend a considerable amount of time with a subtle little game back in the nineties. "Doom" I think it was called... Ate most of my life for about three years. Or was it four? Lost track of time a bit back then due to lack of sleep.

My 360 is wireless, so that wouldn't help if I was doing the project. But Saitek joysticks aren't too expensive anyway and they can take some abuse.

How to get the control property 'Handle' and 'Name' from another .NET application window?
|
|
|
|
|
Why do you need this?? As it stands, your questions just screams "bad design". Controlling another applciation through window messages is not the best way to go about it.

Hello,
I am in searchof a method that converts my HTML input into RTF. I don't want to have any 3rd party tools to do it.
Can anyone help me to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

OK, then you need to set aside a good amount of time to write the code to do it yourself. When you're done, you could probably sell it as a third party component.

Here's one way:
1. Display the HTML to be converted in a browser.
2. Press Ctrl-PrtScn to get a screen shot.
3. Start WordPad.
4. Press Ctrl-V to paste the screen shot.
5. Select File | Save As in WordPad.
6. Save as a .rtf file.
And you have the HTML converted to rtf without any 3rd party tools.

I never thought it as a hard task as that......  I don't have months to spare for this....

Any conversion between two formats can be problematic. In most cases the 'owners'of the formats generally provide the API's to convert. IF you are using MS Orifice, you can open HTML files and then save them to rtf; this can be done programatically.

Thats a great input for me.... I will go ahead with this....

If you don't mind a few shortcomings, why don't you just try using Word: let it open the HTML document and save as RTF.
Warning: make sure not to have it save any HTML, Word's idea of HTML is a bit fundamentalist.

Fundamentalist?? That's too "warm and fuzzy" a description for what Word considers HTML. No, I think "Jihad", "Shock and Awe", "GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb", ... those are a bit more accurate.

I plead guilty. 
My preference for understatement goes pale next to your highly accurate politico-military jargon.

I'm not an MS MVP anymore. I'm spending way too much time with my 15 month old son to keep up on MS's and CodeProject's stuff at the moment.

Good choice.
And yeah, your sig tricked me.

try to put it in a Richtextbox and start from there.
You'll probably have to manually escape the tags and replace them by rtf codes. (Readme's via google).

Hi
I am trying to read from somewhere in the middle of the file with Binaryreader but I can't.
BinaryReader br = new BinaryReader(MyFileStream);
br.BaseStream.Position = locationtostartreading;
byte[] context = new byte[br.BaseStream.Length - locationtostartreading];
br.Read(context, 0, (int)(br.BaseStream.Length - locationtostartreading));
return Encoding.ASCII.GetString(context);
But it starts reading from beginning whatever I do.
Thanks.

Hi,
1.
I would expect your code to work fine, although I had the experience once some methods rewind their stream parameter (without such being documented). IIRC Image.FromStream() does.
2.
Why do you need a BinaryReader here? FileStream.Read() would return a byte[] anyway.

Maybe your source is not seekable.
byte[] content = new byte[] {0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255,255,255,0,0,0,0,0,0};
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(content);
BinaryReader reader = new BinaryReader(memoryStream);
byte[] buffer = new byte[6];
reader.BaseStream.Position = 15;
int size = 0;
do {
size += reader.Read(buffer, size, 6 - size);
}
while (size < 6);

My source is an exe file and I think that should be seekable.

The code I posted is the correct code for reading from a stream. If the code I posted does not work you have another error that has nothing to do with reading logic.

I think you have been trying to do this for a couple of days, yes?
I also think you have the wrong idea what a BinaryReader is and what BinaryReader.Read(byte[], int, int) actually does.
A BinaryReader is not intended to read a stream of binary data from a file. It is intended to read primitive types (such as int32, int64 etc) from a file. What you appear to be trying to do needs a straight FileStream or similar.
The BinaryReader.Read(byte[] buffer, int start, int length) reads length bytes into the buffer, starting to fill at buffer[start] - not reads bytes into buffer starting to fill from stream[start].
Search MSDN for BinaryReader; it is all there in English. Or Microsofts' version of English, at least.

Thank you for your answer. Yes, I've been working on this for couple of days.
I've tried using FileStream too but again got the same result.
Maybe the problem is the method for looking the location of the string in file. Any suggestions on how the find the location of string in file
