Re: Printing in Different paper size

2-Jan-04 10:31

Look here: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=PrintDocument+PaperSize+custom[^].

It does work. You could be right about the server forms configured on the system, but the PageSetupDialog doesn't seem to mind. If you solved the problem of printing an A3 form by enumerating the PaperSizes like I said a while back, great. If you're trying to print something else customized, it's possible the printer (or maybe even the print server) might not support it.

There were some examples of setting custom paper sizes in the google link I gave you. If they don't work for you, either you have a botched .NET installation (which I doubt, because many other things would be wrong), or your printer has problems or limitations. I have a Lexmark myself and I am not particular crazy about it (what can I say, it was free).

Have you tried a different printer?

Thanks, I found what I was looking. But if you have read it, you have noticed that what I was asking cannot be done with C#, not completly. There is an example on how to add the form using c++ code, and then with that form, use it in c# to print the custom size. So I assume the custom size option using the papersize constructor only works on Windows 98 or before.

That's probably a safe assumption. Just P/Invoke the method(s) you need to save from having to write a native DLL.

Is there a way to turn on the standard context menu for a RichTextBox. (Copy/Cut/Paste/etc)

It shows up by default in a standard TextBox.

Thanks,

There isn't one. It's not hard to provide, though - just create a ContextMenu with those menu items. The RichTextBox (inherited from TextBoxBase) already has methods for Cut, Copy, and Paste.

Um, do you know C#? If so, I can give you some refrences...

Framework SMTP Class:
System.Web.Mail Namespace[^]

CodeProject Examples:
SNTP Client in C#[^]
Sending Mail Using C# via SMTP[^]

But really; Before looking at all that, you should read this...

The SMTP Specification[^]

I havn't read this particular one, but I did read the POP3 specification. It gave me a much clearer understanding of what's going on. So, do that.

And always remember and never forget... SEARCH GOOGLE. There are tons of examples on the net too, with lots of 3rd party components also.

I hope this helps... I'm not sure if I under stood you correctly... "...without using any email client." With out a client at all, with out Outlook, a console window, service? i'm confused...

SmtpServer is where you post it TO,so it is obvios where does it go. Maybe these links helps you.

http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/emailsender.asp[^]

http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/SMTP_with_Authentication.asp[^]

If you don't want any setting in your computer you can send mail with Socket class and do dot use SmtpMail class. Like this article:

You have to setup your SMTP Virtual Server in the Internet Information Manager snap-in (in your Administrative Tools in your Control Panel) to forward mail accordingly. Otherwise, the server doesn't know where to send mail.

HOW TO Create a Summary Row For a Windows Form DataGrid by Using C# ????

2-Jan-04 19:47

Um, yeah, that's called a signature - it wasn't part of the message.

As I said, open Internet Information Manager and you should see your SMTP Virtual Server. Right-click and select Properties, then RTFD. There's far too much to cover in a forum. You have to understand basic SMTP implementation, but the docs will help. As always, just hit F1.

What do you mean by summary row? You mean you wanna filter your datatable?

tablename.DefaultView.RowFilter = "filter expression";

ArgumentException at building

2-Jan-04 5:45

This has been asked before, and as I told the previous person, you should consider using Label controls below the DataGrid. If you have a data-bound DataGrid and programmatically add a row, you must do so to the DataGrid.DataSource, which will add the row. If you then update that data source (say, to a database or XML file), it will contain that summary row. This is hardly what you want, I assume.

So, just use some values below it. That's what we do in our application, and there are many other benefits as well. First, it separates the summary of columns making it easier to see, and it doesn't scroll or resize like a DataGrid could, thus hiding certain summations. Second, one rarely needs to summarize ALL fields (for example, how would you summarize a name field for a person, company, etc.?), so just include enough labels to summarize what you need.

To summarize columns, just enumerate the rows and keep track of what you need to, then assign that value (or whatever) to a label that shows the value (or, if you use one label for the text label and value, use String.Format or something to assign the "Label: Value", "Label=Value", or whatever format to the Label.Text property).

hi
I get everytime a Exception error shortly after successfully compiling
i just get it, when the compile mode is on release and not debug

this is the error (translated by me, orign was german):
An not controlled Exception of the type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.drawing.dll.
Additional Information: false paramter used.

that's the error, even before Form1_Load can happen

the disassembly also tells me something
Adress: System.Drawing.Bitmap..ctor

and a yellow arrow is beside of the following line:
00000067 push dword ptr [ esp + 10h ]

posting the sourcecode is a very bad idea, more than 1200 lines in 5 different files and no part is highlighted when the eception occours

i hope anyone can help me with handling the error

It may happent in your InitializeComponent(),You may use some GDI+ there.

Hi,

Any ideas on how to exclude documentation of private and internal members
of the classes while generating docs from the "Tools|Build Comment Webpages.."
option of VS.Net?

Thanks,
Sridhar.

Re: exclude private members in docs

2-Jan-04 5:36

That utility sucks. Use a good - and free - one like NDoc[^]. A lot of people and companies use it. It can generate both HTML Help and Help 2 documentation (the latter is what VS.NET, MSDN Library, and a couple others use now), as well as a few other formats. By default, private and internal members are documented, but you can opt to include or exclude these individually (as well as protected and public members...and many, many other options!).

Hi Heath,

Thanks a lot for the info. i was trying to build the .sln provided by the
NDoc community but couldn't add the MSHelpCompiler.dll to the references.
Anyways, i installed it and could use it now; it's pretty cool.
thanks once again. if u have any idea of how to get the dll i mentioned plz
let me know.

i was busy with some thing else so couldn't let you know abt this early.

tks,
Sridhar.
