I cant see where i am going wrong as my loop shows the readonly to be false for every column even though i am setting them to true in my routine and when i loop through the columnsstyle collection i get false for every one???
private void LoadInvoice(DataGrid invoiceJob,ComboBox phaseName)
{
job = new Job();
DataTable list = job.LoadPhasePayers(Convert.ToInt32(phaseName.SelectedValue.ToString()));
invoiceJob.DataSource = list;
AddCustomDatagridStyle(invoiceJob);
foreach(DataGridTableStyle ts in dtgCInvoice.TableStyles)
{
Debug.WriteLine(ts.ReadOnly);
}
}
private void AddCustomDatagridStyle(DataGrid myGrid)
{
DataGridTableStyle ts1 = new DataGridTableStyle();
ts1.MappingName = "PhasePayers";
DataGridColumnStyle textCol = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
textCol.MappingName = "Payer";
textCol.HeaderText = "Payer";
textCol.Width = 250;
textCol.ReadOnly = true;
ts1.GridColumnStyles.Add(textCol);
myGrid.ReadOnly = true;
myGrid.TableStyles.Add(ts1);
DataGridColumnStyle textCol2 = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
textCol.MappingName = "Net";
textCol.HeaderText = "Net";
textCol.Width = 250;
textCol.ReadOnly = true;
ts1.GridColumnStyles.Add(textCol2);
myGrid.TableStyles.Add(ts1);
DataGridColumnStyle textCol3 = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
textCol.MappingName = "VAT";
textCol.HeaderText = "VAT";
textCol.Width = 250;
textCol.ReadOnly = true;
ts1.GridColumnStyles.Add(textCol3);
myGrid.TableStyles.Add(ts1);
DataGridColumnStyle textCol4 = new DataGridTextBoxColumn();
textCol.MappingName = "Gross";
textCol.HeaderText = "Gross";
textCol.Width = 250;
textCol.ReadOnly = true;
ts1.GridColumnStyles.Add(textCol4);
myGrid.TableStyles.Add(ts1);
}

As I said before, do not initialize the table and column styles every time you set your DataSource, which you currently are. You only need to do this once. The way you're currently doing it, you add new column and table styles each time you set the data source, leading to increasing memory consumption, performance degradation, and other unforseen problems with having the same table style added multiple times. Also, how is setting every column's ReadOnly property to true different from simply setting DataGrid.ReadOnly to true?
The actual problem is most likely because you're DataGridTableStyle.MappingName is set to the table name of the DataSource you're using, which is a DataTable. If you were to actually use a DataSet and set that as the DataSource with the table name set in the DataGrid.DataMember property (which should be the same as the table style you want to use, since you can have more than one table style). If you set the DataGrid.DataSource to a DataTable,. then IIRC the DataGridTableStyle.MappingName should be an empty string or null (either would work - just don't set it to begin with, though).

many thanks for persevering with me i got it thanks to you, setting the mapping name to null was the big key and i am glad you spotted my method of setting on every load i was getting tired and difflated at that stage. I am using tables rather than the overhead of a dataset being returned everytime, i have got styles to work with dataset but my little brain was struggling to get it to work with a table now i am off and running again looking for my next brickwall to knock down  ))))))

Hi,
I'm writing a program that performs CRC check on sfv files, I've got a method creating an array that's used for filling a listview item, the array is
<br />
public struct LineToCheck<br />
{<br />
public string fileName;<br />
public ulong CRC;<br />
public LineToCheck(string filename,ulong CRC,)<br />
{<br />
this.fileName=filename;<br />
this.CRC=CRC;<br />
}<br />
};
I added a button in my form to start sfv check but since the array is created in a method, I had to create a public static LineToCheck array as global variable and to use .ToCopy(global_array) to fill it, but doing so I've to fix a lenght of array, if I were in C, I would have used LineToCheck *array, and I would have dinamicly add elements.... is there a way to do so in C#??? or to trim an array at inside's method array's lenght?
I don't know if I've been clear..... I hope so, thanks
Paolo

yes there is a way to use a dynamical array: the class
ArrayList (I guess in System.Collections )...it automatically resizes when necessary, and thus it has no fixed length as a "normal" array in C#....but ArrayList stores the assigned values as objects (aka boxing), so you have to cast when you return something from the ArrayList....
for example:
int i = 5;
ArrayList al = new ArrayList();
al.Add(i);
int storedInt = (int) al[0]; //unboxing

Note that boxing and unboxing is only done when casting value types from an object reference. Casting a reference object does not box or unbox, it simple performs a cast.

Extend the RichTextBox class and override WndProc. If you don't want to allow zooming at all, catch the EM_SETZOOM (0x04e1) and don't call base.WndProc. If you don't want the mouse to be able to set the zoom factor, then catch the WM_MOUSEWHEEL (0x020a) and use the static Control.ModiferKeys properties to easily determine if the Ctrl+MouseWheel is in effect. If it is, again, don't call base.WndProc. In all other cases, be sure to call base.WndProc passing a reference to the Message struct otherwise your control will not work at all and may not even be initialized correctly.

Hi Heath,
Thanx a lot, I could solve the problem by
1.Extending the RichTextBox class
2. Catching WM_MOUSEWHEEL (0x020a) and
checking whether Control.ModiferKeys is Keys.Control
3. not calling base.WndProc in the above case (mentioned in 2).
Where as I could not get the result by Catching EM_SETZOOM (0x04e1) and not calling base.WndProc.
I am keen to know whether is it possible to solve the problem using EM_SETZOOM ?
Please Comment.
Thanks and Regards,
Jay.

RichTextBox.ZoomFactor is also between 0.64 and 64.0 because it simply uses the EM_GETZOOM and EM_SETZOOM message which it sends to the underlying window handle, same as practically all the controls in Windows Forms.

Hi Heath,
Thanks for the info. using EM_SETZOOM should give the same result.But it does not work
I tried to catch the EM_SETZOOM using the following code
Did I go wrong somewhere in implementation?. Please comment.
protected override void WndProc(ref System.Windows.Forms.Message m)<br />
{<br />
<br />
if (m.Msg == 0x04e1)
{<br />
return;<br />
<br />
}<br />
else<br />
{<br />
base.WndProc(ref m);<br />
<br />
}<br />
<br />
}
Where as catching WM_MOUSEWHEEL and asserting Control.ModifierKeys == Keys.Control solves the problem.
Thanks and Regards,
Jay.

I've tried a few things to and it's my educated guess that the Rich Edit control (which is encapsulated by the RichTextBox) doesn't use the EM_SETZOOM when using Ctrl + Mouse Wheel and instead handles that internally in much the same way the handler for EM_SETZOOM does.

"How to develop a screen saver in C# By Rakesh Rajan" is the template I've been using to for multiple monitor support, but when i try to implement it into my code only one monitor pops up with screensaver and when i do either mouse event or keyboard event that monitors screensaver kills and then the other monitor pops up with screensaver. I'm guessing that it won't load next screens form until current form is termated. Here is the code...
for(int i=Screen.AllScreens.GetLowerBound(0);
i<=Screen.AllScreens.GetUpperBound(0); i++)
Application.Run(new ScreenSaverForm(i));
Do i use a thread or something.. been workin on this last part of project for a while now.. any suggestions
FYI.. I'm not rich. My desktops motherboard died and i just plugged monitor into back of laptop.

Application.Run is a blocking call that starts the message pump and wants until the main form is closed. Since this is in a loop, when the main form is close then the next iteration of your loop executes.
You should instead design your form to span multiple monitors (see SystemInformation.VirtualScreen).

Heath,
How would you push applications to a specific monitor and not just stretch the screen space?
This sounds interesting for a project I'm doing.
