Well, I've done some reading in MSDN newsgroups which suggests the above is not possible. I suppose I'll have to settle with toolbars for now (and rebars later!).
Please correct me if I'm wrong!

Ok, this is abit based on the previous tread I made 'Making of a "Standalone" application'. Whats the point of this? Its like java damnit! I think one have to do C++ or VB then to make standalone apps instead, or? Kinda too bad since starting up a C# project shows up this nice basic window, and your're ready to start doing your application (or in this case, complication) :P Quite much easier to do some thing like this with the already advanced Windows programing. Point/drag and klick. (With more advanced features you have to type code yourself, which is nice)
Oh, and also, C# seems much easier to learn than C++ 
Someeone care to elaborate this further and explain this to me?

I am with you man!
I especially hate that I have to have Windows to run Microsoft Office. Damnit, why can't I just run Office without installing that Windows crap.
Ugh!
I really recommend you go and read up on the how, why and what of the .NET Framework. Not C#, not VB.NET, not COBOL.NET. Read up on the actual .NET Framework itself. Once you have done that then you can make more informed decisions on what to code your new applications in.
There are some good articles right here on CP about it.

With VB you still have to deliver the VB runtime dlls. I'm afraid your only choices are C or C++. Unless you want to learn Delphi.

C++ also has its runtimes, they just normally included with the OS, soon all MS OS'es will include .NET as standard.

Hey,
I've just started to learn C# here and I must say its quite fun. However, how can I make the applications I make in C# "standalone"? (work without having to install .net) I ask since, well, it would be damn fun if I could make some nice app and show off at friends or something Also, itnt this how ppl do their applications for Windwos in general?? Or maybe its in C++? Maybe its better to develope in C++ if its not possible in C# 
Ideas?
Thanks,
Ace

If your friends have Windows XP with the latest service pack then they've got .net already - there's no need to do anything else to run your c# app other than compiling it into an exe.
Further, Windows.Net Server 2003 natuarlly has .net integrated, as does the next revision to Windows XP, codenamed Longhorn. Add to this the fact that the .net framework has been a recommended update on the Windows Update website for over a year now, and you start to see that the bottom line is it's only out of date Windows systems that need to have the 20MB framework installed - everyone else should have it already.

I am new to .Net and am trying to get a web service to work. I have created a few classes and the testing of them is fine. When I try to access them from my web client I get an error. The .vsdisco file has been created but cannot be found by the Add Web Reference dialog box. I have tried to access it from both a web and forms project. I ran the service through the debugger and it works fine. I ran through the MS tutorial:
ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/vsintro7/html/vbwlkCreatingDistributedWebApplicationWalkthrough.htm#vbwlkcreatingdistributedwebapplicationwalkthroughanchor12
but it doesn't work either. I figure its either a bug or (more likely) I have something set up incorrectly.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!

Hi, all:
I am writing WinForm App in C# and I have following two questions:
1. I modified App.ico in the project. when I rebuild the project, the icon in the Windows Explorer and shortcut changed to what I made. However the icon on the top right of the application titlebar did not change when I run my app. How can I add my own icon replace the default icon on the titlebar of the main window?
2. What is the easiest way to get current username?
Thanks in advance.

1. There should be an Icon property for your form that you can access in the Designer view. Use that to find whatever icon you want displayed in the title bar for that particular form. I think you have to do this for each form you want the icon displayed in (unless anyone knows a better way).
2. Use System.Environment.UserName property to find the current user name.
Hope that helps.

Please help!
I need to record what keys the user presses only after a certain event.
If I don't clear the keyboard buffer, what is pressed before the event is also recorded.
Could anyone help?
Thanks

I have a DataSet object defined by a XML-schema. One of the columns in the datatable should store an element also defined in the xml-schema (using ref="my_second_element").
I put the values I want to store in the dataset in an array of objects (Object[]) and set DataRow.ItemArray to my array. This works fine when I don't try to set the column of "my_second_element", but if I set that column I get an error. I have tried converting the object to store in that column to among other things an XmlElement but without luck. The error reads:
System.InvalidCastException: Specified cast is not valid.
at System.Convert.ToInt32(Object value)
at System.Data.Common.Int32Storage.Set(Int32 record, Object value)
at System.Data.DataColumn.set_Item(Int32 record, Object value)Couldn't store <system.xml.xmlelement> in KuR_Id Column. Expected type is Int32
(KuR is the name of the datatable).
I get the impression that the object value is being stored in the record-place and not in the value-place. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I have tried to set the datatype of the column to System.Object but I got the error that parent and child columns don't have type-matching columns.
Any help will be greatly appreciated

Code sample that may help to clarify my problem:
DataSet vscDS, vscDS2;
DataTable vscDT,vscDTP;
DataRow vscDR,vscDRP;
DataTableCollection vscDTC, vscDTC2;
DataColumn vscDC;
object[] arrDR=new object[9];
short sIndex;
XmlElement vscXElem;
XmlDocument vscXDoc= new XmlDocument();
vscDS=new DataSet("Register");
vscDS.ReadXmlSchema(strSchemaFile);
vscDTC=vscDS.Tables;
vscDT=vscDTC["KuR"];
vscDC=vscDT.Columns[8];
//Add values
if(vscDT!=null)
{
vscDR=vscDT.NewRow();
arrDR[0]="";
arrDR[1]="";
arrDR[2]="";
arrDR[3]=m_strKType;
arrDR[4]=m_strEBet;;
arrDR[5]=m_strPoint;
arrDR[6]=m_strBen;
arrDR[7]=m_strBet;
//Adding object
if(m_arrgodkP.Count>0)
{
vscDS2=new DataSet("Register2");
vscDS2.ReadXmlSchema(strSchemaFile);
vscDTC2=vscDS2.Tables;
vscDTProv=vscDTC2["PR"];
if(vscDTProv!=null)
{
//m_scPR is a self defined class and method ConvertRow returns its values in a DataRow
vscDRP=m_scPR.ConvertRow(vscDTP);
//Create xml dokument and load xmlstructure from dataset
vscXDoc.LoadXml(vscDS2.GetXml());
vscXElem=vscXDoc.DocumentElement;
//Add element
arrDR[18]=vscXElem;
}
}
vscDR.ItemArray=arrDR;
vscDT.Rows.Add(vscDR);
}

Well, this is kind of a late answer, but maybe it'll help.
The video is shown in overlay mode, which is some special mode that bypasses some of Windowses normal drawing things and goes straight to the video card. Try to search for something related to overlays.

Hi,
We currently have a DOS application written in c/c++ that read and write directly to the parallel port. We are thinking of porting the application over to C# to run on Windows XP.
How/What do I need to be able to read and write to the Parallel Port?
Any information you could provide will be much appreciated.
TIA,
Linh

There was some code published on the gotdotnet.com website under user samples section some time ago that gives you a COM port stream - you should be able to find it no problem.
