Is installed on your Windows XP system the version of the .NET Framework that your application is expecting?

I used VS2008 and .net 3.5 for the building of the app
on Win Server 2003 Enterprise Edition.
The .net 3.5 will not install on Win XP sp2, so i rebuild with .net 2.0
and i have installed .net 2.0 on the system

If you had a .NET version problem, I'd expect an error 0135.

Error 0x7b may mean: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Could be many things, e.g. you're trying to access one of the special folders (such as Users or "Documents and Settings") without going through the proper channels (Environment.SpecialFolder). Proper try-catch and Exception reporting would take care of the details.

Communication with DCOM Server

Hello everybody,

I am doing a application which needs to communicates with a DCOM server. I created a .NET wrapper using tlbimp.exe and referenced it in my C# program.

I then create an Object from my remote server using Activator.CreateInstance("Objectdd.obj","ServerNAME"); and cast the returned object to the correct type in the .NET wrapper class.

Until here everything is working fine, I can call method on my object from C# and the call is correctly executed on the remote machine.

The problem is, as soon as I try to connect to an event from C#, I got a System.UnauthorizedAccesException. This is strange because I can call every others method with no problems. I also tried my C# software on the server, using "localhost" as server address and I could connect to the event correctly.

Any ideas what's wrong ? Any security problems I am missing ?

Thank you,

usually when we open a cs file(by Double Click)it open in the vs2005 IDE, if no IDE is opened it will open one and show the file , but if an IDE exist then the file will be opened in the existing IDE.

But i want to open the .CS file through my application and always in a new IDE instance in a new process, because i want to keep tracking the process.
but when call the

process.start("devenv","filename");

it opens in an existing IDE if one exist.

what i want is to always open a separate IDE for my app.

any idea how to do this.

thanx in advance.

Yes, that's common behavior, because you are trying to open a file and not the application. you just double click on the visual studio icon, and it will open new IDE all the time, because there you are trying to open an application. now use the same code and don't pass the file name, I think it will open new IDE all the time.

Also, by reading your few previous posts. As suggested to you previously, just develop Visual Studio Add-in / Extension. and you will have access to everything you want in IDE. otherwise keep in mind that you cannot control some external process, that is already running, from another process. they are running in separate domain. unless the process supports RMI kind of functionality. Which Visual Studio IDE is not supporting. so instead of spending time on doing everything remotely. try to create in-process pug-ins and you will have full control.

I assume you don't read replies. Please don't reply to this user on this thread.

Hi all,

Is there any way to hide the Y axis scale points on my Barchart? I wouldn't want to show datapoints for the Y axis.As i dont want to be seen by users.

Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").AxisY ??????

Is there any Property which ci could use to hide this scale points on Y axis?

Thanks for your time.

As you already know, Bar Chart is 2 Axis chart, so you cannot hide any of the axis, otherwise it will not plot the chart.

but you can make the Color of the Y Axis same as Background color of the Chart Area. So that It's there but not visible (kind of).

Chart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].AxisY.LabelStyle.ForeColor = "Your background color";
Chart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].AxisY.LineColor = "Your background color";
Chart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].AxisY.TitleForeColor = "Your background color";
// + add any other color property that you don't want...

Hopefully this should work... Smile | :)

If you have gradient background, this is not going to work.

Please Let us know, if you find out any other way to hide the Y-Axis

Thanks for your email.Its much appreciated.That is great point,what i wouldnt want to show is the scale points as they are Revenue points which users are not allowed to see.

The backcolor is white at the moment setting the forcolor to white wont show scale y axis.

Chart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].AxisY.LabelStyle.ForeColor="#FFFFFF"

Did i get it right?

Thanks so much.

Sorry if you dont mind , I have another query.On my X axis for each scale points i have two bar graph.
One is the target for the day and the other one is a progreess bar which indicates as we approach to that target.

Lets say (x axis is Hours of the day)

for instance at 8:00am i have a target of $1000 and this is shown with one Bargraph. and i have another one which is an online realtime data that counts as persentage to this value.So at exactly 8:00am it will be zero percent and after few minutes it will climb up this point until the hour finishes. and at 9:00 there will be another datapoints on x axis may be £2000 and another progreess bar that shows the progress etcc..

$1000 is 100% target for 8:00am and another bargraph toshow what is achieved say $500 so it will be at 50%
£2000 is 100% target for 9:00am and another bargraph to toshow what is achieved say $4000 so it will be at 200%

How can i represent one bargraph $1000 and another one saying 50% for one datapoint in X axis?

Is it clear?

Re: VS2010 chart Control

Yes, You can do that,

You will need to add one more series in your chart. so that there are total 2 series, one for target and another for progress.

i.e.

Chart1.Series.Add("Target");
Chart1.Series[0].ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar;
Chart1.Series[0].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;
Chart1.Series[0].LabelFormat = "#"; -- here you want just target money right ?

Chart1.Series.Add("Progress");
Chart1.Series[1].ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar;
Chart1.Series[1].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;
Chart1.Series[1].LabelFormat = "#%"; -- this will show % progress

now get the data set with all the 3 values as columns, time,target,progress. one column for x axes and 2 columns for y axes, and then

Chart1.Series["Target"].Points.DataBindXY(ds["time"],ds["target"]);
Chart1.Series["Progress"].Points.DataBindXY(ds["time"],ds["progress"]);

now the ds["time"] will group the bars to gather if they have same time. and one will show value and another will show percentage. also the ds["percentage"] should have values without x 100, i.e. 0.40 for 40% and not 40...

Also, I would suggest you, that you download[^] the mschart control samples. you will have sample for almost every single scenario.

Thanks so much its much appreciated.That is really great.

I have a few questions if you dont mind.Lets say for 8:00am target is $1000 and achieved is $500 which is (50%)
and 9:00am target is %2000 and Achieved is $4000 which is 200%

On the first one the progress barchart whould be half target barchart.

on the second one the progrees barchart should exceed the length of the target barchart twice.

But this is not the case as the value 0.5 (50%) is to small in values on the scale points on Y axis though it means £500 which is half the value of the target.

If i choose percentage it is a bit tricky to represnt them on graph? Where i am getting it wrong?

Can you also please let me know how could i choose the backcolor of my barchart?

Many thanks.Your help is great and much appreciated.

OK, This is because the Axes Y, should bind same kind of values, due to same scale type. so those 0.5,0.1.. will be too small compared to 1000 (which is $ value). so you need to change few things...

i.e.

Chart1.Series.Add("Target");
Chart1.Series[0].ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar;
Chart1.Series[0].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;
Chart1.Series[0].LabelFormat = "#"; // here you want just target money right ?

Chart1.Series.Add("Progress");
Chart1.Series[1].ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar;
Chart1.Series[1].IsValueShownAsLabel = false; // i have changed this
Chart1.Series[1].LabelFormat = "#"; // 'i have changed this also

now in ds you will need 4 columns, or change the 3rd column from percentage to value. or just 4 columns

1.time
2.target // (this should be value like $1000)
3.progress //(this should be value like $500)
4.percentage // (this should be 50%)

now you need to manually add the points, instead of binding it.

so,

Chart1.Series[0].Points.Clear();
Chart1.Series[1].Points.Clear();

foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows)
{
  Chart1.Series[0].Points.AddXY(dr["time"],dr["target"]) // for first bar

  Chart1.Series[1].Points.AddXY(dr["time"],dr["progress"]) // for second bar value
  Chart1.Series[1].Points[Chart1.Series[1].Points.Count - 1].Label = dr["percentage"].ToString() + "%" //we have disabled the auto label, so here we define the label value, so it will have 500 as value in scale, but it will show 50 % as a label.

}

and to change the background color

Chart1.ChartAreas[0].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Silver;

And for my next answer, I need MONEY... Big Grin | :-D

Just go through the sample code, I mentioned in the previous post. it has all the code. first you just run the sample project and browse the app, and if you find something interesting, look for the code.

again you can download it here[^]

Thanks a million you are my hero Dave.Anything will be given for you man. Thanks. Smile | :)

One last question : dr["time"] is coming as Y axis and the others like dr["progress"] are on X axis. How do i reverse it ?so the Dr{time} is X axis.

Here is the Code:--

Dim dt As New DataTable

With dt

.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Hour", System.Type.GetType("System.String")))
.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Acheived", System.Type.GetType("System.String")))
.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Hourly_target", System.Type.GetType("System.String")))
.Columns.Add(New DataColumn("Hourly_targetPer", System.Type.GetType("System.String")))

.PrimaryKey = New DataColumn() {dt.Columns("Hour")}

End With

Chart1.Series.Add("Hourly_target")
Chart1.Series(0).ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar
Chart1.Series(0).IsValueShownAsLabel = True
Chart1.Series(0).LabelFormat = "#"
' here you want just target money right ?
Chart1.Series.Add("Acheived")
Chart1.Series(1).ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar
Chart1.Series(1).IsValueShownAsLabel = False
' i have changed this
Chart1.Series(0).LabelFormat = "#"
Chart1.Series(0).XValueMember = "Hour"
Chart1.Series(1).YValueMembers = "Hourly_target"

Chart1.Series(0).Points.Clear()
Chart1.Series(1).Points.Clear()

For Each myDataRow As DataRow In dt.Rows

Chart1.Series(0).Points.AddXY(myDataRow("Hour"), myDataRow("Hourly_target"))
Chart1.Series(1).Points.AddXY(myDataRow("Hour"), myDataRow("Acheived"))
Chart1.Series(1).Points(Chart1.Series(1).Points.Count - 1).Label = myDataRow("hourly_targetPer").ToString + "%"

Next

However i get x axis -- Hourly_target and Y axis is Hour. Is there anything i am missing ,It should be the reverse .

sorry i meant to ask changing the color of the barchart not the backcolor.

Thanks Dave

It is correct if you select Bar Chart, I think, you want Column Chart.

Change

ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Bar

//to 

ChartType = System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Column

I though that,

<blockquote class="FQ"><div class="FQA">kibromg wrote:</div>                  Chart1.Series(0).Points.AddXY(myDataRow("Hour"), myDataRow("Hourly_target"))
                  Chart1.Series(1).Points.AddXY(myDataRow("Hour"), myDataRow("Acheived"))
                  Chart1.Series(1).Points(Chart1.Series(1).Points.Count - 1).Label = myDataRow("hourly_targetPer").ToString + "%"</blockquote>

here

add

Chart1.Series(1).Points(Chart1.Series(1).Points.Count - 1).Color = System.Drawing.Color.Red

I think, you want to change the color based on progress, yeah you can do that...just add some IFs...

Hello Dave.Hope you doing great my hero. I have one final question.

Your help is really great. I would like to put a a dolar sign before the values on each of the colomn bar. That is the amount of the target(in dolar) on top of each column bar.

Chart1.ChartAreas(0).AxisY.LabelStyle.Format = "C" wil give the Y axis points to have Dolar sign.

How do i do it for each of the coloumn in the Graph both taget and achieved one?

Thanks once again dave.
