The best way to print from a window application is using crystal reports. Then as my friend said all depends on what kind of application ur working with. Basically if u r to show something like a report the best way to do is by creating crystal reports.

I bit of overkill if you ask me. Plus the overhead of CrystalReports, licensing etc.

Hi guys,
A general question, is there a disadvantage/advantage of working with the registry or XML document. Do Admin rights issue come in if you are saving everything on the registry?
Please advice.

Off the top of my head, XML seems the safest. Because, even if the user had Power User privildges, they still can't edit other accounts - so some reg keys might not be accessable.
I'm running power user right now, and I can't install many things, e.g. Flash, VS Express, DirectX, WGA Plugin, Alcohol 120%, etc...
However, I CAN install firefox.
I'm not sure what the pattern is....

Is there anyway to create a standalone dropdown button thats not in a toolbar strip?
Thanks, Ben.

You could make a custom control that would mimic the Toolbar Strip Drop Down Button.

Greetings:
Im trying to change an image to only two colors (B&W) based on a threshold value, to do this i first turn it to grayscale using a colormatrix, then, if the rgb grey value is bigger than the threshold value it turns black, if its lower it turns white, or viceversa. As for now, im doing this pixel by pixel, but its too slow, is there a better, faster way for doing this, and if so how?
Thanks in advance

I'm working on a Word add-in with a custom menu. When the Word is started, the Add-in is loaded and menu is created. But the same Word instance(Windows process) is used by Outlook and I don't want the menu to work if the current Word document is an email. We have other application which uses Word inside it as well. Window.EnvelopeVisible property just apply to Outlook. Is there any general way to find out whether a Word document is under another container application such as Outlook?
Thank you very much.

ok so perhaps not c# specific but its the language im using so...
i have some (hopefully) thread-safe code that accesses some shared fields using the lock statement but im trying to avoid full-on locking.
i need to update a field only if the result does not exceed some other value.
i found the following code for simple value update (in the CompareExchange() example):
do {
initialValue = totalValue;
computedValue = initialValue + addend;
} while (initialValue != Interlocked.CompareExchange(ref totalValue, computedValue, initialValue));
now, if i use the following would it be properly thread-safe and do wot i need..?
do {
initialValue = originalValue;
result = initialValue + addValue;
overFlag = result > maxValue;
if (overFlag) result = initialValue;
} while (initialValue != Interlocked.CompareExchange(ref originalValue, result, initialValue));
overFlag is bool and would be used after the udpate code to determine whether to continue or not.
i cant quite get my head around it. 
thanks in advance

Hello!
How do you reorder ToolStripMenuItems in MenuStrip at runtime?
Here's some sample code:
//create the MenuStrip here and add a File menu with an Exit MenuItem on it.
MenuStrip ms = new MenuStrip();
ToolStripMenuItem file = new ToolStripMenuItem("File");
ToolStripMenuItem fileExit = new ToolStripMenuItem("Exit");
file.DropDownItems.Add(fileExit);
ms.Items.Add(file);
//Add a Print MenuItem to the File Menu
ToolStripMenuItem filePrint = new ToolStripMenuItem("Print");
file.DropDownItems.Add(filePrint);
At this point, the File menu will have the Exit menu item, and then the Print menu item below it. How do you change the order, and move the Print menu item to the top?
Background: I'm creating a _MenuStrip control that inherits from MenuStrip, and will have default MenuItems for all menus in the application, such as File/Exit, and Help/About, etc. I plan on creating additional MenuStrips that inherit from my base _MenuStrip control, and I will need to add and remove MenuItems at runtime.
Thanks!
Gary

You can reorder them by changing the order they're in the DropDownItems collection.
file.DropDownItems.Remove(filePrint);
file.DropDownItems.Insert(0, filePrint);

Thank you very much! That does handle the reordering of the MenuItems.
There is only 1 caveat to this approach, that is that the EventHandler for the MenuItem that is being removed will be lost when the MenuItem is removed and re-inserted. How can you get the EventHandler for the MenuItem before it is removed, and then reassign it after it is added back again?
Thx.

Scratch that... I figured it out. Thanks!
Example:
ToolStripMenuItem tsMnu = new ToolStripMenuItem();
//Remove first menu item
tsMnu = (ToolStripMenuItem)((ToolStripMenuItem)this._MenuStrip1.Items[0]).DropDownItems[0];
((ToolStripMenuItem)this._MenuStrip1.Items[0]).DropDownItems.RemoveAt(0);
//Add Print MenuItem
((ToolStripMenuItem)this._MenuStrip1.Items[0]).DropDownItems.Insert(0, new ToolStripMenuItem("Print"));
//Re-insert the MenuItem below the Print MenuItem
((ToolStripMenuItem)this._MenuStrip1.Items[0]).DropDownItems.Insert(1, tsMnu);
Thanks!

It should be sufficient to insert the new item at index 0 as all other items should move down automatically.
((ToolStripMenuItem)this._MenuStrip1.Items[0]).DropDownItems.Insert(0, new ToolStripMenuItem("Print"));

I have a form (a4 paper) that i digitalized (jpeg file) with my scanner. On this form there are many fields that can be manually compiled: name, surname, address, etc.
I'm looking for a source (example) in c# to do this:
1) Input variables by program: name, surname, address, etc;
2) Trasfering variables over the form (digitalized);
4) Print form with user's variables.
Can u help me ?
Thanks
Alv;)

1) You seriously need an example of this?
2) Graphics.DrawText
3) Skip this step, it's unnecessary
4) Research PrintDocument

Hello,
First of all please do not refer any previous articles on this website about my problem and try to point the problem and its solution.
Thanks in Advance!!!
I'm written some implementation about Single Instance Application. All is working fine.
When I run the second instance it stops itself if one already running in the following states of the main Form:
1) minimised
2) maximised
3) Normal
The only thing that is not working fine when the main Form is Hidden becuase of Form.Hide(); or Form.Visible = false;
Here is the code which i'm using to show the instace of already running application:
if (IsIconic(hWnd))<br />
ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_SHOWNORMAL);<br />
else<br />
ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_RESTORE);<br />
UpdateWindow(hWnd);
Please suggest an accurate solution to this problem.
I'll be really thankful to you.
Best Regards,
Rizwan Ahmed.
