Put a breakpoint on the "if( Clipboard..." line, and see what formats are present.
It may make it easier if you separate the Cliboard.GetDataObject().GetDatePresent(...) into two and examine the Cliboard.GetDataObject() alone.You should never use standby on an elephant. It always crashes when you lift the ears. - Mark Wallace

I imagine bitmap is not one of the formats copied when you copy a file. When I tried it, I copied from MS Paint, not from Explorer. I'm pretty sure there is a data format for files/folders... and I think just the path to the file is stored, rather than the file data. In addition to checking for bitmaps, check for files and then you'll have to load the file based on the path.

No you didn't, since neither will display an image. You, more than likely, copied a file path that points to an image file to the Clipboard.

Hi,
then there is no Bitmap format on the Clipboard.
When I copy an image (i.e. an image file) in Windows Explorer, I get 7 data formats on the Clipboard:
[ 0]=Shell IDList Array
[ 1] DataObjectAttributes
[ 2] FileDrop
[ 3] FileName
[ 4] FileNameW
[ 5] Shell Object Offsets
[ 6] Preferred DropEffect
None of them says "Bitmap", which is obvious as Windows Explorer deals with files, not their content. You don't get text when copying a text file, do you?
I suggest you find or build yourself a little utility so you can watch what exactly is on the Clipboard at any time; that is what gave me the above list!
BTW: this is what I get copying from MS Paint:
[ 0]=Embed Source
[ 1] Object Descriptor
[ 2] MetaFilePict
[ 3] DeviceIndependentBitmap

I just saw PDFSharp here, "Converting Image Files to PDF[^].
Its working for low level dimensional images. But not for higher dimensional image like 3000*3000. The output contains only a part of the image.
Is there any free source code available to convert image to pdf files

Hi, i have a windows service which is executing EnumWindowCallBack as shown in the following link
Capturing the Running IE Instances in C#[^]
The service is running as LocalSystem account and is interacting with Desktop. The service is writing all URLS opened by me in a text file. It is working fine for me BUT when i switch as a different XP user, and open any IE window, The service can not detect this new IE window.
My aim is to get running instances of IE for all users logged in.
Can some one help. I can send the code if any body is willing to help me.
Please help me

Are you sure that the service is running when you log in as another user?
If the service is running under the LocalSystem account it does not make sense that it would only work for your user account.

Hi Scott
Yes when i switch as another user (xp limited user), the service is still running. I cannot stop it ie. Access is denied. But when i open an internet explorer window, my service can not detect it and the log is still showing the same number of windows as opened by the admin user.
I want this service to detect all windows for all users.
Thanks

I looked it up and it seems that an interactive service can only interact with 1 user desktop.
You will probably have to find another way of doing this.

My guest, your program or the service the program depend upon is running inactive or a mode that is blocked by windows log in user security service.
You could try if the program will work on both administrative users.  Sir.Dre

Hi SirDre
If i make everyone an admin user, then they can kill my process, which i dont want. Actually this is a parental control system. Only the parents should be able to stop the service not the children.
Thanks.

OK, what are you trying to control with this? Are you trying to prevent IE from running? Log all the URL's that are in each IE window? What?
From what I'm assuming you're doing so far, you're going about it the wrong way. But, I'll leave confirming that up to you before I way anything.

Hello Dave..
Basically parental control system is a service (PCS.exe) which will run under LocalSystem account and interacting with desktop. When other users (children) log in to the computer as limited users, PCS will do the following jobs:
1. Key logging -- already implemented
2. Screenshots logging --
3. Restrict some applications -- for example sol.exe or calc.exe. My Service read these program names from xml file and will kill the process if found open. System.Diagnostic.Process works very well here.
4. Restrict websites -- This is giving me hard time. Basically my service can find internet explorer windows and URLS being visited very well in current user session. But when i switch the user, the service cannot see any explorer window.
PROBLEM:
The main problem right now is.
If PCS.exe is running under local system account, if i want to kill a process for user A, it says Access Denied. If i run PCS.exe under user account A, it cannot interact with desktop. How can i make it able to kill a process for not only current user but also for any other user who is logged in.
I hope i have explained what i am doing or wish to do.

That's because this better handled by a proxy or firewall. You don't need to delve into every single users session to find every IE browser window. Besides, youre technique will only work with IE. It will not work with any other browser.

Better handled by Group Policy.

Useless. You can take snapshots all day long and still miss what you need to see.

Only one user can be logged in at a time, so the service can only work for the currently logged on user. Maybe you have to reset something when a user logon event is detected..45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly

Hi,
I created a trial license for our application. I have some doubts in my concepts:
1. i used in my concept , get system time using DateTime.Now when installed our application. For example
installed Date: 1/03/2010
Expire Date: 30/03/2010
Expire Days: 30
remaining Days: 30
every time when i application start , corresponding manipulation were done. current time - installed date based on these manipulation remaining date will reduced.. In the positive scenario its working fine .
but if daily uses the date when the software is installed , the remaining date should not reduced its my problem .. so i think dont take a directly from system can we should be use some another idea ... On that time in Linux can possible to take system Tick which is directly calculated from 1970 jan 1 . so no need to change if even changes the system date .. if you have any idea related this or have any new idea.. please share with me ....
Thanks....

Imho, the only really fail-safe way to check for license expiration, validity and seat count is for the application to communicate with a license server that's under the control of the manufacturer of the software.
