For your first question you need to install .NET framework on each machine you want to run your application. Also if you use ADO.NET (which you used) you need to install latest version of MDAC on that machine, specially if that OS is not WinXP.
About spalsh screen, I haven't done it myself in C# but if you want to put it before Application.Run() you have to close before it too cause that line actualy doesn't finish until you close your application. You can first show splash, then use sleep function for wait some seconds,then close it. Same thing can be done in Load event too, but I don't know best solution until I test it myself.

As the title says, I am wondering about how to get and set scrollbar positions of a rich textbox control.
I want to make haxa editor using C#. so I used 3 richbox. first richbox displays the line number, second richbox displays Haxa data and the last richbox display ascii code. so all richbox scrolled at same position and at the same time.
Does anyone know a method to get and set textbox scrollbar positions?

Off the top of my head you can P/Invoke GetScrollPos and SetScrollPos. I think you might be better to P/Invoke GetScrollInfo and SetScrollInfo instead though.

MD5 checksums would be you best bet, maybe even going as far as looking how file hashes are performed in emule.

You can easily create a new GUID, they will always be different from one another.

You could create a new GUID easily in .NET. But how are you going to attach that GUID to the file? You can't put it in the file because then you would have two files with the same GUID. It sounds like your trying to attach a serial number to a file and then letting the user manipulate the file any way they want, even moving and renaming, and keep track of the file and its copies. A daunting task, indeed. You'll need to write an entire extension package to NTFS to get this to work.

No you don't. You merely attach an alternative data stream[^] to the file, something NTFS already supports. You could also use the \005SummaryInformation ADS which NTFS also provides - the same one that appears by default on all files on an NTFS volume.

Whoops! My bad! I forgot about alternate streams. I haven't used them at all , but have read about the concepts on MSDN somewhere about 5 years ago.

Hi,
I think i'm going mad .....
All i need to do is convert a DOS style 8.3 file name to the full expanded format name ... but i'm damned if i can find a way to do it.
I think i can do anything to a file apart from this.... please help ... preserve my sanity.
Thanks ... Andy

If the .NET Framework doesn't support this you can P/Invoke either GetLongPathName or GetFullPathName.

Thanks Nick...
Just for anyones interest the code looks something like ....
Declare the routine like this ...
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto)]
public static extern long GetLongPathName(StringBuilder ShortFileName, StringBuilder LongFileName, int Length);
StringBuilder shortName = new StringBuilder(filename);
StringBuilder longName = new StringBuilder(512);
long bufLength = longName.Capacity;
long retCode = GetLongPathName(shortName, longName, bufLength);

You could use .ToString() instead of (string) to see what you actually get.
Could it be that Column[0] isn't the user type you expect? I think it would be more robust and easier to read if you used Password.Rows["UserType"][0] (or whatever your column's name is)...
BTW, the first if clause is wrong  . It won't get passwords that are too short. You should change && for ||.

I'm having a little problem with PramodKumarSingh mail problem.
In the constructor POP3(string UserName,string Password,string Server,bool DelAfterRead) I set the DelAfterReader = true, but the messages still stay in pop3 server and I can download them in my Outlook. Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Agus

while (fs.Position < fs.Length)
for instance.

while (fs.read(holder,0,256) > 0)
{
}

|
|
|

FileStream.Read will return 0 when it gets to the end of the stream so you should test for the return value being > 0 and exit the loop on it being == 0.
