Hi...
Code Project community .
I need ur help in the following issue :
I am developing window application in C# 2005 in which I have to print a bank statement.I am using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word and creating Word.Application object.There is a specific format in which I have to generate the word file like (Bank logo on the top and Advertisement at the end of page)only on first page of each statement. A statement may contain multiple pages. We are creating one word file for all the accounts for a particular account type. In this case the image of the bank logo and the advt. will be coming for each new statement in that file. When I start generating the word file every thing working fine coming in required format but randomly after creating say 15 or 50 pages the alignment for the image on the top (bank logo) is distorted. Hence the all the following pages the header portion gets haywire. We to manually press 2 enter keys to bring the header down and reformat the file. This is not manually possible a single file may contain 100-150 pages.
You tips and tricks on this will be appreciated.
So please help me out to solve this problem its urgent.
Thanks....

Have you looked at OpenText? Open text is a library for creating pdf's. OpenText was origianlly developed as Java library, but has a cSharp port. The interface is a bit ugly at first, but the original author has a book out on the library that makes using it very easy. If you take this route, it simplifies deployment because your application won't rely on an appropriate version of word.

Oops, the library is iText, not OpenText -- Too many libraries, not enough time.

thanks..
I will try this option.

Hello,
i have a tree view ,were an After Selection event occurs after selecting a node.
i also have a function called refresh which refreshes the tree View by building it from scratch.
the problem is that when the refresh is made, the selected node is not changing, which is fine, but the after Select event is not fired, which is not fine at all (since this event retrieves necessary data).
my question is: how (if possible) can i fire an after Selection event without changing my selection.
attached is relevant code
Thanks
private void tvwProject_AfterSelect(object sender, TreeViewEventArgs e)
...
//this code mainly constructs the tree View
private void refreshProjectTree()
{
if (isProject)
{
BLFunctions.BuildProjectTree(tvwProject);
BLFunctions.ExpandNode(tvwProject, tvwProject.Nodes[0]);
}
else
{
BLFunctions.BuildSchemaTree(tvwSchema);
}
}

Factor the code out to a method you call at the end of your refresh method.

Hi Christian,
could you be more specific ?
i couldn't understand what you mean by your answer.
|
|
|
|

It's painfully obvious. you have some code inside an event, that you need to run in a situation where the event does not fire. So take this code, move it to a new method, and then call this method from your event, and from the method which you were hoping would fire this event.
And buy a basic book like 'Code Complete', and read it.

Ok mr.Graus
so if you say so, how would i get the TreeViewEventArgs if im calling a method where no such args are sent to it ?!?!?!?
|
|
|
|
|
You could build an instance of TreeViewEventArgs using tvwProjects.SelectedNode and pass it to the factored method.

I am running Windows Vista using Visual Studio 2008 to build a Office 2007 Plug-in making use of WPF. Everything used to work fine until I installed .NET 3.5 SP1 and the WPF Toolkit. What happens is that when I build the solution Visual Studio closes unexpectedly.
I have read up on this issue and the only related issues I could find was that the Powertools plug-in causes this problem. I do not have powertools or any other plug-ins installed. Other project types build fine... only Outlook plug-ins gives this problem.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

I had similar issue with, but it happened when I used SVN incorrectly. My Only solution was to create a new project and import only code files but not generated files such as .vsproj.
also don't forget to backup before doing this.
I Kinda deleted and imported from my own SVN and some files got corrupted. As described above, it helped me

Thank you for the reply Saksida, I have followed you're advice and now the solution builds 70% of the time. The rest of the time Visual Studio still crashes. I will do a clean install of Visual Studio and hopefully this will solve the problem.

Hi, all,
In WinForms with C#, a TableLayoutPanel custom control with, saying, 10 rows and 5 columns being designed in designer window. NumberOfRows was coded as a property of this custom control. I wish to change this property value and set it as a new RowCount of the TableLayoutPanel mentioned above, before the custom control running InitializeComponent(). Is this possible? I have tried to do it with a method in the SET of that property as below:
private void OnNumberOfRowsChanged()
{
tableLayoutPanel1.RowCount = numberOfRows;
}
and it didn't work while I change the value of NumberOfRows property, and set a breakpoint in the constructor method of that custom control, the RowCount remains as 10.
Btw, I tried to use tableLayoutPanel1.RowStyles.Remove() and tableLayoutPanel1.RowStyles.RemoveAt(index) as well, neither of these two works as well...
Any Idea?
Your kind help is so much appreciated!!

I can't for the life of me work out what you're talking about, or what your problem is. What is 'pop up for windows' ?

My guess is he wants OpenFileDialog.

Does your menu have an Open File option in the media player or at least a button to do so? If not add one.
Then add OpenFileDialog and have it fire when needed.

Is there any way by which i can convert the file to pdf in office 03.
Thanks in advance for all your helping hands..

You probably need to buy a library that is more universally supported instead of using what you're using.

From Word ? I'm not sure, I think I've seen one, it was quite expensive, and I forget the name.

If you install a pdf printer such as PDFcreator, you could simply open the word doc, then print it. Though you can print programatically in such a way as to avoid the print dialog boxes, you'll still be faced with PDFCreator's 'save as' dialog box. I don't know if it is practical to automate the 'save as' dialog interation in your situation; though, if you are just trying to convert a few hundred files or will always use this in a manual enviornment, this should solve your problem.
If you take this approach and can't/don't automate the 'save as' dialog interaction, I recommend putting the target file name and path in the clipboard so that you only 'ctrl-c' the file name and click save.
Hope this helps

There is a dll file in a program I use that contains product information for the program to use. I was wondering is there any way I can gain access to the data in the dll file in a C# project. The file dosent contain anything that I shouldnt have, it is just catalogue information.
I have never accessed data from a dll file before and I dont know where to start. I can access the data using Resource hacker but when I tried to add it as a reference to my C# project in Visual studio it gave an error saying that the file isnt a valid com component. I am sure that this is obvious to anyone that has a clue about this, but as you can tell i dont.
Can anyone help me access the data in the dll file?
