I see.
In that case I can just do the following:
1- Install sql server 2005 express.
2- Run the setup from the CD as it is (Without the .mdf). There is a connectionstring in the code which points to the local sql server.

What do you think?

Thanks

Hi Dave,

Did you receive my email? Otherwise, can you email me at rajesh AT indiamvps DOT net?

Yes, I did. I don't respond to direct emails. I get too many of them from people wanting to be my friend for no reason other than for me to teach them everything they don't know.

No, I'm not a MS MVP anynmore, and no, I have no desire for the license at all. I don't even run antivirus on my machine.

Do you mean how do you pass a picture as a command line argument to a Windows Forms application? You need to be far more specific in your questions.

I have:
1.. MFC application (application of test)
2.. C# dll ( ActiveX control : COM)

I have implimented method in the Dll that receive Object (which I think it works) with name AddContextMenu(string A_strCaption, Object A_Icon);

So what I need is to Load a picture from Hard Disc and pass it as parameter for this method.

this is some code c++ where I have to call and pass the picture :

MyCtrlActiveX->AddContextMenu(_T("Assign PN"), ?????);

Passing things like images across COM is not trivial.

I think you have control of both halves of the application, and your question is just about adding icons to context menus? You should pass the information that the C# control needs to construct the image, and create the image in C#, instead of trying to pass it across the bridge. (For example, store the icons as resources in the C# assembly and pass the name of the image to use.)

Your question is still not very specific, but I suspect it is a case of 'I wouldn't have started from here' and you should be able to find a good solution to your problem which doesn't require you to send complex objects across COM.

Try passing the HBITMAP handle, so you can get the image in .NET with Image.FromHBitmap, or pass the string containing the image path on the hard disk, so you can get the image in .NET with Image.FromFile.

It's hard to tell... your questions are way too vague... Here you are some links to the documentation.

Image.FromHbitmap[^]
Image.FromFile[^]
LoadImage function[^]
Windows Data Types[^] (look for HBITMAP into this page).

Be more specific. I have no ideea what exactly you want.

Pass a filename to the app args[] so that it(the app) opens the image automatically? Like in double clik from desktop?

Or form another app? or From/To a DB?

All the best,

Dan

What kind of application? Console app? If so, just pass the filename as a command-line parameter and handle it in the code.

MrKBA22-Mar-11 5:14

No, it is a windows application MFC and I should pass the Image as paralmter , not just the path.

thank you

I think you need to use System.Diagnostics.Process.StandardInput[^]

The first thing to do is to find the documentation for this function and see if you can determine what a status of -1 indicates. If it follows the usual patterns then there should be some more data somewhere that will give you a more specific reason.

I must get a clever new signature for 2011.

thanks for your response.

The error which i got is

This error captured at the time of establishing connection to the database.

Assuming both are running on the same machine, it sounds like a possible permissions issue. Does the account the Scheduler task is using have permissions set in the Oracle client config?

It's probably a permissions issue as your windows service will be running under its own identity as opposed to your user identity. To resolve this, take a look at these threads 1[^] and 2[^].
