I’m missing something (I’m experienced with C, C++ but not with C#, ASP.NET)...
I want to dynamically create a control/random HTML. Do I have to do it with, for example,
<br />
HtmlTable table1 = new HtmlTable();<br />
table1.Attributes.Add("border", "0");<br />
table1.Attributes.Add("align", "center");<br />
div1.controls.Add(table1);<br />
etc. or can I pass ‘<table border=”0” align=”center”>...</table>’ to something and have it render it?

You don't have to render it if it's already html code. You put it on the page.
Use for an example a placeholder:
<asp:Placeholder id="Arthur" runat="server"/>
Add a literal control containing the html code:
Arthur.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<table ... > ... </table>"));
---
b { font-weight: normal; }

Excellent, thank you.
I already have an 'Arthur' to hang things off. So, to do the dynamic bits, I can just adjust the string or use Arthur.FindControl("x") afterwards to adjust it.
It's these things like not knowing about LiteralControl which are the 'things you don't know you don't know' that make forums like this so worthwhile!
Thanks again.

I want to design a program that operate in the following:
click a button--> OpenFileDialog, chose the pic that u want to copy.... If DialogResult.OK --->the selected picture is copied to folder \bin\debug with the name "copied.gif"
Help me, pleaseeeee
|
|
|
|
|
So what's your problem? A picture is a file just like any other so just use File.Copy. Or did you want to convert formats?
|
|
|
|
|
OpenFileDialog openFile = new OpenFileDialog();
openFile.Filter = "Image files|*.tif;*.tiff;*.bmp|All files (*.*)|*.*";
if (openFile.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
File.Copy(openFile.FileName, Application.StartupPath +"\\coped.gif");
}

 and...
how to create a folder and save my file to that folder???
In OpenFileDialog, filter, how to display in the textbox "File of type" like:
Image File (*.gif;*.jpg;*.bmp)
thanks

Before saving a file to a particular folder, it is a good practice that you check the folder's existence.
Review the following code:
string MyFolderDir = "C:\\MyFolder\\";
if(!Directory.Exists(MyFolderDir )) // if your folder does not exist
{
Directory.Create(MyFolderDir); // create the folder on the specified directory
}
In the "File of Type" dropdown, you just need to specify the text that would appear and the filter. You can separate them using the "|" character. Like this:
openFile.Filter = "Image File (*.gif;*.jpg;*.bmp)|*.gif;*.jpg;*.bmp";
Microsoft KB and other sites such as this have very good articles about File operations. Try exploring. Enjoy!

I don't understand the Format property on the defaultCellStyle of the column I just added to a dataGridView.
I have it set to Currency with 2 decimals, thus "C2".
I fire up my project, double click in the cell, put in 5 and it doesn't format it to '$5.00'. Why not?
Am I totally missing something?

Is it possible to make a class in visula basic . net and include it in c# project and make its obect in C# for calling its method
|
|
|
|
|
Sure. The VB.NET class just has to be it's own project. Then, in your C# project, you can set a project (preferrably) reference to the VB.NET project and include the class just like any other pre-written namespace and class in the .NET Framework.

hey everyone...
i've probably missed something very important, and just don't know it.
the reason: i'm trying to populate 2 treeviews from 2 separate threads with separate data in each, both trees are pretty slow to load so i need the threads, else i lock up the ui for about 10sec. I also have to refresh the trees throughout the progress so i've had to build the threads the way i have so i can access it later.
the problem: if i try to invoke both threads in the same form_load block i end up with 2 trees with the same data. if i invoke them separately (comment one or the other out) i have proven that the code works properly for both, so it leads me to believe that i've either done something terribly wrong or i just can't do what i'm trying to do........
any ideas?
here is the code:
Thread PcTree, pclist,EmpTree,emplist;
MethodInvoker CallCompList, CallEmpList;
private void Form1_Closing(object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e)
{
switch (tabControl1.SelectedIndex)
{
case 0:
initializePcTree();
break;
case 4:
initializeEmpTree();
break;
}
}
private void initializePcTree()
{
PcTree = new Thread(new ThreadStart(PopComputerList));
PcTree.IsBackground = true;
PcTree.Name = "PcTree";
PcTree.Start();
}
private void initializeEmpTree()
{
EmpTree = new Thread(new ThreadStart(PopEmpList));
EmpTree.IsBackground = true;
EmpTree.Name = "EmpTree";
EmpTree.Start();
}
private void PopComputerList()
{
CallCompList = new MethodInvoker(CompList);
de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://~.com");
ds = new DirectorySearcher(de);
ds.Filter = ("(~)");
this.BeginInvoke(CallCompList);
}
private void PopEmpList()
{
CallEmpList = new MethodInvoker(EmpList);
de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://~.com");
ds = new DirectorySearcher(de);
ds.Filter = ("(~)");
this.BeginInvoke(CallEmpList);
}
private void newCompList()
{
CompList();
}
private void newEmpList()
{
EmpList();
}
private void CompList()
{
statusBarPanel1.Text = "Please Wait While We Update the List";
PCmonitorTree.Nodes.Clear();
ParentNode = new TreeNode("TopNode");
PCmonitorTree.Nodes.Add(ParentNode);
foreach(SearchResult sr in ds.FindAll())
{
TreeNode PCnode = new TreeNode();
PCnode.Text = sr.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.Split("=".ToCharArray())[1].ToString();
ParentNode.Nodes.Add(PCnode);
TreeNode PCnode1 = new TreeNode();
PCnode1.Text = "PC - " +sr.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.Split("=".ToCharArray())[1].ToString();
PCnode1.Tag = sr.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.Split("=".ToCharArray())[1].ToString();
PCnode.Nodes.Add(PCnode1);
PCmonitorTree.Sorted = true;
}
PCmonitorTree.ExpandAll();
t = ParentNode;
PCmonitorTree.SelectedNode = t;
statusBarPanel1.Text = "Ready";
}
private void EmpList()
{
statusBarPanel1.Text = "Please Wait While We Update the List";
empTree.Nodes.Clear();
TreeNode ParentNode = new TreeNode("TopNode");
empTree.Nodes.Add(ParentNode);
foreach(SearchResult sr in ds.FindAll())
{
DirectoryEntry DE = sr.GetDirectoryEntry();
TreeNode empnode = new TreeNode();
empnode.Text = sr.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.Split("=".ToCharArray())[1].ToString();
empnode.Tag = sr.GetDirectoryEntry().Name.Split("=".ToCharArray())[1].ToString();
ParentNode.Nodes.Add(empnode);
empTree.ExpandAll();
empTree.Sorted = true;
}
t=ParentNode;
empTree.SelectedNode = t;
statusBarPanel1.Text = "Ready";
}
string Beautiful;
Beautiful = "ignorant";
label1.Text = "The world is full of " + Beautiful +" people.";

You cannot call methods on Controls created on another thread. T do this, you have to use the Invoke methods of the Controls.
See this: http://blogs.wwwcoder.com/amachin/archive/2004/12/15/1146.aspx[^]
EDIT: Sorry, misread your article. You are using BeginInvoke, this should work. Anyway, you probably should read the article linked above, it may solve your issue.

CallCompList = new MethodInvoker(CompList);
de = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://~.com");
ds = new DirectorySearcher(de);

this.BeginInvoke(CallCompList);

}
Look what you're doing here with the de and ds variables. You're using a class scoped de and ds variables. DON'T! Each thread should create and use it's own set of Directory objects scoped within the methods themselves.
What's happening is that when you launch your first thread, it sets up the de and ds variables to perform a search. While that setup and search is taking place, you launch another thread that, low and behold, reassigns new DirectorySearcher and DirectoryEntry objects to the very same de and ds variables you just setup in your previous thread. Global variables - bad idea...

Good point Dave,
I think i picked up that bad habit from those redim-ing vb guys i work with
problem fixed!
string Beautiful;
Beautiful = "ignorant";
label1.Text = "The world is full of " + Beautiful +" people.";

I'm calling a method that can throw one of several exceptions:
byte[] ReadFile(string filePath)
{
return File.ReadAllBytes(filePath);
}
When calling this method, do you guys usually catch every possible exception, or just cover it with a single catch block? For example, do you do this:
string errorMessage = null;
try
{
return File.ReadAllBytes(filePath);
}
catch (ArgumentException argumentError)
{
errorMessage = argumentError.Message;
}
catch (ArgumentNullException nullArgumentError)
{
errorMessage = nullArgumentError.Message;
}
catch (PathTooLongException pathError)
{
errorMessage = pathError.Message;
}
catch (DirectoryNotFoundException directoryNotFoundError)
{
errorMessage = directoryNotFoundError.Message;
}
catch (IOException ioError)
{
errorMessage = ioError.Message;
}
catch (UnauthorizedAccessException unauthorizedError)
{
errorMessage = unauthorizedError.Message;
}
catch (FileNotFoundException fileNotFoundError)
{
errorMessage = fileNotFoundError.Message;
}
catch (NotSupportedException notSupportedError)
{
errorMessage = notSupportedError;
}
catch (System.Security.SecurityException securityError)
{
errorMessage = securityError;
}
if(errorMessage != null)
{
MessageBox.Show(errorMessage, ...);
}
Or do you catch it all in a single System.Exception catch block?
try
{
File.ReadAllBytes(filePath);
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, ...);
}
Obviously the latter is easier to read and write, but the former is more precise and won't eat up things like system errors (OutOfMemoryException, OverflowException, etc.). Which do you guys suggest?

It depends. For example, when reading a file I'll normally check it exists first, so I a PathTooLongException, DirectoryNotFoundException and FileNotFound are really things I should not be getting, so they'd be covered in a catch all (if at all at that point in the code). Specific things that I can't check for in advance would be in specific blocks.
On the whole I find that exceptions propogate up a couple of method calls in the stack before I actually handle them because often at the point the exception occurs I am not able to handle it so I allow it to propogate up until I can do something about it.

Or in case of IO operation it would be better to do:
catch (IOException ex)
{
.. io error occured. PathTooLongException and all other IO related inherit from IOException
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
.. all other unexpected errors
}

My example was simplified; my real code has the error propagating up a ways until it gets to the UI as well.

I use selected row data of dataGrid to load data into textboxes
When I select the first row of the dataGrid no data is loaded into the textboxes
But when I select any other row, it’s data is loaded to the textboxes, then the first row can be loaed too...!!!!?
If any one knows the reason why the first row don't load until i select any other row at first, I’ll be grateful
|

try posting your code so we can determine what is going on.
|
|
|
|

How are you loading the data into the textboxes? If you're handling the rowEnter event, I don't believe its raised on the form/page load. Try going to any other row, then back to the first and see if it loads. If that's so, you may have to either just manually enter the data into the columns the first time, or use a different event.
As another option, look into databinding. There are a couple WONDERFUL articles on it here at codeproject that you can search for.

Hi,
DataTable.Clear() really clears all the rows from the memory r just changes the status of the rows?
If it does not clear which is the best method to use to clear the DataTable rows from the memory.
Thanks and Regards,

I want to show a Power Point presentation file from my C# application. Does anyone know how to do that, without having the program Power Point installed on the locale machine? I think of a COM-component maybe?
