I have no idea, but that's certainly not the strangest request I've seen in this forum.

Someone might want to do something strange like that, but I assumed that if someone was going to do something advanced as that, he would be capable of asking a more precise question.

Contrary to Judah, I assume that you don't want what you are actually asking for, but the size of a file.
To get the size of a file from the name, you use the Length property of the FileInfo class:
FileInfo info = new FileInfo(fileName);<br />
int length = info.Length;

Hi guys,
Sorry if i confused you all.
I'm trying to close a program with a condition.
If the program saved the data to an xml file, it can close. Otherwise it has to remain open.
In order to know if the data is saved, i just ask the size of the file in bytes to see if that has increased or not.
So how do i check the content in bytes of a file?
Thanks in advance!

You mean the size of the file? If you read my first reply, instead of just replying to it, you will find that I alread answered that question before you even asked it.

Hey all,
I need to create a Custom Control that draws a line in the form with each end anchored to other controls. The Custom Control should show the drawing of the line once it is being drawn and able to redraw itself automatically once the anchored controls are moved. Can someone tell me how i can go about to accomplish this? Just want to know what might be need (class, namespace, etc and concept...) Cant seem to be able to figure one out.
Thanks in advance!

Create a custom control that takes has 2 properties: Control1, Control2. When either of those properties get set, add an event handler for LocationChanged. In the LocationChanged handler, update the destination coordinates of the line you want to draw, then call Invalidate. In the OnPaint override, draw a line between your destination coordinates.

The alpha channel decides the opacity of the other channels. In what manner do you want to "hide" the aplha channel? Do you want to make the image opaque?

I think it's not the suggested solution to your problem but i made all sorted of buttons like this:
You make the button in a applic ( like Photoshop or Paint LOL )
( You can even make 2 Button-Designs ( a highlighted and a non-highlighted ) )
Then you put a PictureBox on the form.
With the Picture of the Button( the background-color of the form must be the same as the background-color of the button-picture )
So, you can make a onClick-Event and an OnMouseOver and an OnMouseLeave-Event
On MouseOver you load the highlighted Button-Picture into the box and by a MouseLeave with the non-highlighted ...
There are certainly 10000 components of Buttons who changes the color, but in the do-it-yourself-way you can decorate the button as you want
Regards

Save your image as a format that supports alpha. For example, .png supports alpha channels. Once saved with alpha, displaying that image in a control will retain the alpha channel, no extra work required.
In order to do a rounded button, though, you'll need to custom draw a button. There are some articles on this website about drawing rounded rectangles, I suggest you do a search.

Hello
I´ve got a static library lib that is compiled for running in MS-DOS(it must run in MS-DOS for detecting some drivers that are only in DOS). How can i call it from .NET or from C++? From C++, I would create a DLL that will be called from C#.
Best regards,
