You could always load this string into an XmlDocument using the LoadXml method, or use a StringReader and then pass that to an XmlTextReader's constructor overload.
However, a better way is to use XML in a way it's intended - using schemas. You should define a schema with a namespace and you can always validate if that XML document uses that namespace. If you can't change the schema, then simply use an XmlValidatingReader to read-in the XML document and embed a schema that matches the XML document structure you require. If the XML document doesn't validate against the schema, then don't use it.
Besides, nothing says you can't load the XML document to check what elements are present. If they aren't, don't continue to process the document. The XmlValidatingReader is the best way to go, however.

I'd just add that the string isn't XML, but it is XML-like. Maybe the poster should first investigate the use of XML as a better solution to the problem at hand...

I guess I didn't look that closely, but your right! Of course, it often seems that we aren't provided with full details on this forum to help answer questions. I just "love" it when someone provides no details and asks why something doesn't work!

I'm not saying you're wrong, just that I think maybe you should point the person to a good starting place for learning how to even use XML properly. They're pretty clearly going for XML, they're just not getting there.

 I wasn't implying that you said I was wrong, just making a statement that I didn't even notice it wasn't well-formed.
In any case, me a couple other people have given this guy plenty of information about XML. One can only do so much - the rest is up to the poster.

If the words must occur in a specific order, a matching pattern can be specified with a regular expression.
You could make use of the Regex class ...
if (Regex.IsMatch(test, @"runprogram.*?parameters.*?appservers", RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)) ...

I created WinMainForm that setted IsMdiContainer=True and added toolBar to WinMainForm in MainProject (that compile to exe).
And I created WinParentForm in ParentProject (that compile to dll).
For example
public class WinMainForm : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
...
private void openParent_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
ParentProject.WinParentForm FormA = new ParentProject.WinParentForm();
FormA.MdiParent = this;
FormA.Show();
}
...
}
About that How can I control the toolBar (in MainProject.WinMainForm) from FormA (in ParentProject.WinParentForm) ?

If you're looking for an OLE-like way where the toolbar and/or menu updates depending on the current window (or other object), then you should use an interface that objects should implement with a method to pass either the main form's ToolBar or some other similar mechanism. This is more of a provider-based approach, which is far more common in commercial grade applications and is essentially what you see in applications like Microsoft Office and other ActiveX containers like Internet Explorer (which gains the Office buttons when an Active Document like Word Documents are opened inside it).
This also gives you an abstract designer so you don't have to use circular dependencies. Just define that interface in a common DLL that both projects reference (or even in the DLL project you already mentioned - just not in the EXE project since VS.NET can't reference an EXE assembly, even though the command-line compiler can).

Can you give me simple or demo project ?

It's not hard. This is what development is about - researching problems and solutions, designing the solution, and then writing the solution.
Simply define an interface, like IToolBarProvider which has a property or method that takes a ToolBar as a param. Your WinParentForm would implement this interface. WinMainForm - in an override to OnMdiChildActive for example - would reset the toolbar back to the default, determine if the child window class implements the interface, then passes the toolbar to the implementation for it to modify, something like this:
protected override void OnMdiChildActivate(EventArgs e)
{
base.OnMdiChildActivate(e);
IToolBarProvider tbProvider = ActiveMdiChild as IToolBarProvider;
if (tbProvider != null) tbProvider.ModifyToolBar(ToolBar tb);
}In a separate DLL project (or the one that already defines the MdiParentForm, define the interface like so:
public interface IToolBarProvider
{
void ModifyToolBar(ToolBar tb);
}It's a very simplistic example, but you should get the idea and explore it further.

Is there any kind of tutorial/source code/anything for C# similar to softwer on this link => http://fma.sourceforge.net
It's mobile phone controlling over your PC and other way around...
Any response is highly appreciated

If you want to know how what their source code looks like, browse their CVS repository[^] and write your own code. But why do what's already been done? It's GPL'd, so it's free software (as everything on SourceForge seems to be, though some licenses may be more restrictive).

where do you get an add-in for Visual Studio Pro 2000?
I looked on MS website but didn't find a download... maybe I missed it..
Thanks

VS.NET 2003 comes with the Compact Framework and I recommend that. If you can find it, the Compact Framework for .NET 1.0 beta (it was released for .NET 1.1) will work.
If you just want an emulator, though, you can download these from http://msdn.microsoft.com[^]. They also come as part of the Pocket PC 2002 and 2003 SDKs, IIRC.
You could always install the .NET Compact Framework into the ROM image (keep in mind this is a hardware emulator - not a software emulator - so it's better) and transfer files using the emulator support software. This allows you to use VS.NET 2002 (without the beta .NET CF) or the command-line tools (comes with the Framework, though the Framework SDK includes additional tools) to write an test mobile apps without having a physical PocketPC device.

Sounds more like looking for the work done for you. It you really want to understand, studying it from another language you can't so easily translate or whatever will teach you far more since you'll actually have to research it instead of just copying and pasting. Would you agree?

Yeah... but it will take me a lot more time to research. Nevermind I downloaded SDK and will look into it ^_^ if nothing else it'll remind me of good old Pascal times because of synatax .

Nothing worth understanding every come easy. Do you think the regulars here learned anything by someone just giving us the answer - especially for an entire project? Even if a managed application did exist like you're looking for, it's wrong to just rip-off someone else's work.
Besides, legally, the project you look at is GPL'd. If you create any derivative work (work based on that project or including some of the source code - even modified) you have to GPL your application as well. If you don't, you break the law. If you do GPL your application you break your licensing agreement with Microsoft that you agreed to when you installed Visual Studio .NET (if you did).

This question has 2 parts...either answer would fix a problem for me
My problem is that I need to query a database, and one of my parameters is the text from a combo box. If the user puts an apostrophe, then this messes up my query. So here are my questions:
How would I go about pre-processing a keypress event in a combo box so I can disable specific characters from ever being typed, such as the apostrophe?
~or~
How can I prevent an apostrophe (or probably quotes too) from screwing up transferring rows?
(I'm getting the error when I use this data in a Crystal Report, and when I build a select command for a data adapter, and include the text which contains the apostrophe.)
Thanks for any help, I apprecaite it 
|

You can prevent apostrophe by placing 2 single apostrophe instead of one...
i.e.
string strName = "baby's day out";
..."where name='"+strName+"'";
change "strName" like this :
string strName = "baby''s day out"
thus after the text has been entered in the combo parse the string for single apostrophe. If present replace that with double like above example and then use the string in ur query.
hope this works...
regards,
Aryadip.
Cheers !! and have a Funky day !!

This is what happens when you don't use parameterized commands! I know that I've given you code samples before for this. Creating a SQL command by concatenating your params together is arcane and should not be used in .NET. If you use a SqlCommand, for example, then you should add SqlParameters to its SqlCommand.Parameters collection property and use @paramname in your query without quotes. The command will do what's necessary. See the documentation for the SqlParameter (or OleDbParameter, or any of the others) in the .NET Framework SDK.
There are also a lot of other benefits to using parameterized commands, such as easy batch processing when you save the parameters as variables and simply update their Value property, then re-execute the command.
