You can't have control arrays on a form, however you can have an event handler that fires on multiple events from multiple controls providing they have the same signature:
this.button1.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button_Click);
this.button2.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button_Click);
this.button3.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button_Click);
this.button4.Click += new System.EventHandler(this.button_Click);
private void button1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
}
To change multiple controls at the same time at design time, click on the first, hold down CTRL and click on the other in turn, hit F4 and you'll get the properties that can be changes for all the selected controls at the same time.
Hope this helps
Tom

Hello techies,
I used DataGridControlButtonColumn to embed a button in datagrid.But the button is visible only if the focus goes to that particular column. I want the button to be visible all the time in all the rows.Any pointers to how to go about this problem wud be of utmost help.
Thanks

Hi friends,
I would like to pass a combox.Items to other dialog form, because the dialog will have a combo which contains the same item collections of pervious form.
Suppose I have loaded all data classes from a folder to a combo, then now I going to pass the collection of data to other combo, what is the data type to pass then ?
e.g. using(SetupUIasf = new SetupUI(this.comboBox2.Items))
to ....
public SetupUI(ICollection datas)
am I right? or using ArrayList is better ?
thanks

Why not using ComboBox.ObjectCollection as that is what the ComboBox.Items property returns.

How could I call a c++ function from c# code, and pass a list of PointF data to the c++ function?
Thanx

I noticed that if I opened up a particular solution the properties tab in the designer would just show a blank white page. If I go to another solution the page is still blank. I found that if I close .net and open up a different solution the properties tab is ok, but once I go to the other solution the tab is always blank even if i go back to the first solution. This is a pain in the ass. I redid my solution and remade the projects by adding the old source files and soon enough the properties tab would go blank and once it goes blank it always is blank for that particular solution. I am doing work that relies heavily on UI so I will need the designer. I am using .Net Enterprise edition, this is just unacceptable for a $2000 program. I know this is definitely a bug in the Visual Studio .net, especially since I have various other controls that are not showing right in the designer but they are showing correctly when I run the program. Does anybody know a fix for this?

You should not use that unless you're running on a server or the machine has the SMTP Virtual Server installed with CDO configured correctly. SmtpMail uses a CDO server (CDO is a COM wrapper for MAPI, basically) and, thus, a CDO server must be installed. Currently Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft SMTP Virtual Services are two such CDO servers. Neither of those will run on Windows 9x/Me.

I didn't know that. Sorry! 
But, if my app will run only on Win2K and WinXP, is it ok? even on a Windows Forms application?
Thanks!

You need to make sure that Exchange/SMTP Virtual Server is configured right. If you need to forward to an external SMTP server, for example, you need to configure your local SMTP service to forward and make sure the other end accepts forwards for your host. There's a lot to consider when using an SMTP server.
Out of the box it may work for any code that uses SmtpMail but it really depends on your setup, which is outside the scope of this forum.

Do not use SmtpMail for the reasons I gave to the person who first replied to your question. It relies on CDO which is not available on every machine and you're application would not be portable.
Instead - if you'd have clicked on "Search comments" to search for similar questions and answers first - you should've found many alternatives, such as connecting to the SMTP server yourself and sending mail. It's actually quite easy.Sending SMTP yourself is actually very easy and many of the articles above will show you how. It's a matter of connecting to the domain's SMTP server (that's what the MX record is for) on port 25 using a TcpClient connection and sending commands and data in a particular sequence.

If you set the font to "MS Gothic" and enter the text by hold down ALT and type "127" with the numeric keypad (not the keys along the top of the keyboard) and then release the ALT key, the caret postion is not moved forward, where as in MS WORD, NOTE PAD, TEXT PAD the caret position moves forwards.
Similarily for ALT + "128", ALT + "65376", ALT + "65440", the result for the richTextBox differs from others.
1.I need info regarding the reasons for showing different output for the same kind of input, among the editors.
2.Can RichTextBox editor output be made same as that of NotePad?

Hi,
A aprogram changes the resolution to 800x600 when starts, then changes it back 1024x800 by the exit (using [DllImport("user32.dll")]). The problem is that all desktop files and shortcuts change their locations (appear in new positions within the 800x600 area).
Is there any way to switch resolution to lower and back with desktop files remain in original positions?
If you know any trick please help.
Thanks

The trick is to NOT do it. There is no way to change the screen resolution without affecting the desktop, unless you want to write all your window code using DirectX (Don't even think about it!)
You shouldn't be changing the display resolution anyway. Changing system-wide settings is extremely poor practice, considering your sharing the system with other applications. What you do in your application may affect the operation of other apps. Besides, when your app crashes (don't tell me it won't!), how is it going to set the resolution back to what it was?

Is there any suggestion on how to make the program portable through different resolution settings without letting the user know?

To get your application to support multiple screen sizes you need to utilize Docking and Anchor features. 
Of course there's a lot more to it... but this is the start.

Does anybody know how to create an automation server in C#? I only know how in MFC, but could not find any articles or sample code in C#. All I am looking for is to have my .net application to be launched by another desktop application. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Given the wording of your sentance, I take it you mean an automation server as an EXE.
Before starting down that long and winding road, be sure to first read about proper exposition of .NET components to COM by reading Exposing .NET Framework Components to COM[^], Marshaling Data with COM Interop[^], and Nick's Exposing .NET Components to COM[^], which covers a few caveats that the SDK docs didn't mention originally - basically about following COM guidelines:- Always attributes classes and interfaces with static GUIDs using the
GuidAttribute - Never change CLSIDs or IIDs for a particular version of an interface
- Never change the definition of a published interfaces; derive a new version from the old and implement that interface as the first interface on the class
- Et cetera...
To create an automation server, however, takes a lot more work. If you want only a single-instance automation server, there's a lot to do, including interop'ing moniker APIs and interfaces, as well as making use of the ROT (Running Object Table) to register your single instance (the moniker is to respond to access requests to the ROT item that represents your application). If you've done this natively, you've got a good start. Now you just need to P/Invoke the native APIs necessary and declare the managed version of interfaces (don't forget their IIDs for their GuidAttribute, as well as the ComImportAttribute that allows the CLR to marshal from COM to .NET and back again). Depending on the derivation of the interfaces, methods have to be declared in order and with the right DispIdAttribute values.
If you want the easy way, then instead of registering into the InProcServer32 registry key, you need to register into the LocalServer32 key. You can do this and still support registration using the regasm.exe tool but attributing a couple of static methods with the ComRegisterFunctionAttribute and ComUnregisterFunctionAttribute. Use the Microsoft.Win32.Registry and RegistryKey classes defined in the .NET BCL (may not - and probably not - available in other CLI implementations' class libraries) to get the CLSID for your attributed class (or hard-code them, since CLSIDs should never change anyway) and register the path to your executable (not to the mscoree.dll shim like COM servers of the DLL variety do).
You should also support the /automation command-line argument in your Main entry point and enable any automation facilities if necessary. At least eat the switch and don't report an error (and/or quit).

Heath,
Thanks,it is very helpful! Besides automation server, are there other ways to have the .net application (exe) to be called by other applications? What do I need to do in order to add the .net exe as a reference in other .net application? Does the exe has to support automation server (with .tlb file) to be included in the reference? Otherwise, I could create a dll in C# that calls the .net exe and have all other applications to call through the dll. Basically, I use the dll as the bridge between the .net exe and other external applications. Is there any sample code on automation server in C# or VB.net? Thanks again.

VS.NET can't reference EXE assemblies, but you can if you use the command-line compiler (VS.NET is trying to avoid circular references).
You really need to define "to be called by other applications". That's easy. Just invoke the executable. You can use CreateProcess or CreateProcessEx in native code, you can use WshShell.Exec in Windows Script (VBScript, JScript, WSH, WSC, etc.), exec in Perl, etc. All that without automation. You only need to support automation when you want to automate with that application, but there's still other ways to do that: anonymous pipes, named pipes, DDE (archaic, but still supported), and much more.
And how you use "call" is ambiquous. So what if you create a DLL in C#? Do you simply use Process.Start to run it? How then will you interact with it? You could use .NET Remoting (preferred between managed applications) but then you need to develop a protocol for other apps to tell your DLL assembly what to do. Too much complexity.
That wouldn't easily work anyway. Native applications can't simply load your managed DLL into memory. You need to expose that to COM and then COM clients load a shim (mscoree.dll, or a custom shim like Office 2003 apps use) whichs hosts the AppDomain and marshals calls to your .NET components.
Please be clear on your requirements. If all you need to do is start the application than just use one of the methods I mentioned above. No complexity is necessary.
