From SQL (haven't tried to execute it over a SqlCommand, but I guess that it would work);

SQL

DBCC CHECKIDENT (yourtable, reseed, 6798)

Would start the numbering at 6798, which is a good a place to start counting as any Smile | :)

thanks where and how can I put that code below?

SqlConnection sqlBaglanti = new SqlConnection();
SqlDataAdapter sqlAdaptor;
SqlCommandBuilder sqlKomut;
DataTable dtTablo = new DataTable();

private void masaCubuk_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
sqlBaglanti.ConnectionString = @"Data Source=SOUNDMAXP\SQLEXPRESS;
Initial Catalog=Kafe;Integrated Security=SSPI;";
sqlAdaptor = new SqlDataAdapter("Select * From dbo.Masa1", sqlBaglanti);
sqlKomut = new SqlCommandBuilder(sqlAdaptor);
sqlAdaptor.Fill(dtTablo);

for (int i = 0; i < dtTablo.Rows.Count; i++)
{
dtTablo.Rows[i].Delete();
}
sqlAdaptor.Update(dtTablo);
sqlBaglanti.Close();
sqlBaglanti.Dispose();
}

If you paste code, then highlight it and press on the "code block" button; that makes it somewhat more readable. I assume that you'd execute a SqlCommand[^].

You'd need to do something similar to this at the end of your method;

const string myConnectionString = @"
	Data Source=SOUNDMAXP\SQLEXPRESS;
	Initial Catalog=Kafe;
	Integrated Security=SSPI;";
const string myCommandText = @"
	DBCC CHECKIDENT (yourtable, reseed, 6798)";

using(SqlConnection con = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection())
{
	con.Open();
	using(SqlCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand())
	{
		cmd.CommandText = myCommandText;
		cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
	}
	con.Close();
}

This can be further adapted to use your connection-object, off course Smile | :)

If you're sure the video is saved correctly (i.e can be played with another application so you know it's valid) then we'll need to so the code that attempts to play it.

I think we may need a little more detail...

1) Why not? What happens when you try?
2) How are you trying to play it?
3) How are you saving it?

Try to include some of the code which has a problem - use the code block widget to preserve your formatting and check with preview - but don't just cut and paste everything! No one is going to wade through huge amounts of code, so just show us the bit with the problem.

Working with Crystal Reports and Forms

I want to create a program that will make it easy for the user to fill in the forms without a Database, NO DATABASE IS NEEDED!!!!! WTF | :WTF:

1. I want to have a form with some Text Boxes or other elements.
2. When the user presses the submit button all of the field data will be sent to a CR (Crystal Report) and then printed in a premade shape and order.

NO DATABASE!!!!!!

It does not need any database, I just want to send the data to CR and print it, How should I do that?????????

I searched many forums but they say just create a db and so on, but I do not want any db.

Please Help me Please!!! Frown | :(

Hi.
You should add some Paramter to your Report File(Crystal Report)at design time.
Then you can access it in your Code.Like this:

crystalReport1.Parameter_Name.CurrentValues.AddValue("Ali");
crystalReport1.Parameter_Last_Name.CurrentValues.AddValue("Jalali");
//
Then show your report viewer.

Good luck.

Yup, enumerate the EventLogEntry's and check out the UserName[^] property in there.

A quick remark, copied from MSDN:
This property is often blank for events in logs other than the Security log.

Form With Shadow

I have a form and a png image file (with a transparent shadow in its border) and what I want is to make a drop shadow effect on the form. I know there are CS_DROPSHADOW solution for this, but I think it doesn't look too good. So I create a "fake" form using CreateWindowEx (via DllImport), and draw the png image file into the fake form.

void CreateFakeForm()
{
            WNDCLASSEX wndClsEx = new WNDCLASSEX();
            wndClsEx.Init();
            wndClsEx.style = CS_VREDRAW | CS_HREDRAW;
            wndClsEx.lpfnWndProc = m_DefWndProcDelegate;
            wndClsEx.cbClsExtra = 0;
            wndClsEx.cbWndExtra = 0;
            wndClsEx.hInstance = GetModuleHandle(null);
            wndClsEx.hIcon = IntPtr.Zero;
            wndClsEx.hIconSm = IntPtr.Zero;
            wndClsEx.hCursor = IntPtr.Zero;
            wndClsEx.hbrBackground = IntPtr.Zero;
            wndClsEx.lpszClassName = m_WndClsName;
            wndClsEx.lpszMenuName = null;

            bool success = RegisterClassEx(ref wndClsEx) != 0;

            UInt32 dwExStyle = WS_EX_LAYERED |
                WS_EX_TRANSPARENT |
                WS_EX_NOACTIVATE |
                WS_EX_LEFT;
            UInt32 dwStyle = WS_VISIBLE | WS_OVERLAPPED;
            
            FakeWndHandle = CreateWindowEx(dwExStyle
                , m_WndClsName
                , null
                , dwStyle
                , X
                , Y
                , PngImg.Width
                , PngImg.Height
                , MainFormHandle
                , IntPtr.Zero
                , GetModuleHandle(null)
                , IntPtr.Zero
                );
}

The problem is my fake form always in the topmost position. Is there a way to put the fake form behind the main form?
In other words, how do I set z-order between the main form and the fake form so that the fake form placed at the bottom of the Z order?

How to hide the fake form whenever the main form minimized or maximized, and move or resize the fake form whenever the main form moved or resized?

Thanks.

Why don't you override CreateParams instead of creating FakeWindow?

This example overrides default border and replace it with AERO. to get WS_ numbers, go to your Windows SDK and look under window.h for decleration

protected override CreateParams CreateParams
{
    get
    {
        CreateParams cp = base.CreateParams;
        unchecked
        {
            cp.Style |= (int)0x80000000;    // WS_POPUP
            cp.Style |= 0x40000;            // WS_THICKFRAME
        }
        return cp;
    }
}

Thanks for the reply,

I'm using Windows XP, so I think there are no WS_ for AERO.

when i said WS_ i meant WS_EX_NOACTIVATE and other. The one I post was uses AERO. It isn't limited for aero. It has all same as unmanaged code

When you say override CreateParams, did you refer to the main form's CreateParams? But then, where do I draw the png image files into?. Sorry, but I'm new in this so I'm still confused.

I thought if I paint form's border with a transparent-shadow background (using png file), it will not become transparent unless I set the main form transparent too. And how to paint the shadow into the border which is located in non-client area?

To enable Form transparecy you need to enable transparent color.

this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.SupportsTransparentBackColor | ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, true);

It seems that SetStyle only applied in client area. I can't make the non-client area transparent. Any suggestion?
