Hi,
welcome to CodeProject.
A few suggestions for starters: there is a nice message "How to get an answer..." somewhere high up on this page; I suggest you read it carefully. It will tell you to provide a better subject line, to format your code (by using PRE tags), and many other things all helping you to get more answers, resulting in better and earlier feedback.
I did not study all that code (as it isn't in PRE tags, you can still edit the existing message!) however I can tell you this:
1.
it isn't object oriented. You should never copy-paste a bunch of code just because you want two identical or almost identical things somewhere. That most likely gets handled by creating a class (=a set of code and data pertaining to a real-world object (or maybe something more abstract).
2.
Furthermore, an AnalogClock should be a class that inherits from UserControl, so you can turn it into a separate DLL file, making it available to all kinds of WinForms applications, just like the standard Buttons, Labels and all known Controls. I suggest you read up on UserControl, and maybe search for some CodeProject articles on analog clocks while you're at it.
3.
Controls (and other classes) can have Properties, that is how you would specify e.g. their location on a Form. Or their offset from GMT (their time zone).
4.
there are more elegant ways to draw the digits, a for loop driven by a coordinates array comes to mind. Anything would be better than a sequence of
gr.DrawString("12", textFont, solidbrush, 109, 40);
gr.DrawString("11", textFont, solidbrush, 75, 50);
gr.DrawString("10", textFont, solidbrush, 47, 75);
...
5.
When you create drawing objects such as Fonts, Pens, Graphics, etc, you should clean up after yourself (yes, the GC does that also, however it does it late, and graphics objects can be expensive). So check if the class has a Dispose() method, and if it does, use it.
There are two alternatives:
- create those objects once, and keep them around as class members inside your AnalogClock class;
- or use a using statement (read up on it, it is perfect for these kinds of things).
There may be more, however that should get you started in the right direction.

I want to make a wysiwyg program in c#, that is composed from a webbrowser control and a form1.
Inside form1 I want to make some search through files(mostly simple txt files) and if needed some extraction from zipped files. That is the main purpose of that form1 made in c#. In the webbrowser control I want to load txt files,generate menus with those txt files, html pages(local or online). All of these I will edit INSIDE that webcontrol through javascript-html-css on the fly(or edit the source file itself).
Why? because is so easy to make allmost anything in a html format-its more intuitive.
Most of the things that this program should do is for local files management => meaning tutorials, hints,tips, snippets,codes,thoughts,comments,pictures,etc.
That is what I want to do.
Now, my question is like this:
How do I take the content from a javascript variable, and paste it into a c# variable?
(The revers situation when i must copy content from a c# variable, I usually save that content in a txt file,then read that file in a javascript variable.)
thank you.

You don't. Javascript doesn't know anything about C# nor does it even know that it's running inside of a webbrowser control inside your Windows Forms app.

I am totally new on webservice callings.
Can you give me an explicit example? please.
thank you.

It's not something you do within a few lines of code.
The w3schools website has a nice explanation on Ajax[^], that should show you how to call a webservice with a variable. You'd also need a webserver to host that webservice - that's where the C# code would run.

Hello!
I'm using this code to detect the cpu temperature.
But I get the error: "The type or namespace name 'ManagementClass' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)", But I think I use all usings I need.
I'm using visual C# 2010
This is my code:
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Management;
namespace Heater
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
ManagementClass processClass = new ManagementClass(@"root\WMI:MSAcpi_ThermalZoneTemperature");
foreach (ManagementObject service in processClass.GetInstances())
{
MessageBox.Show("CPU Temperature: " + service.GetPropertyValue("CurrentTemperature"));
}
}
static decimal ConvertToCelsius(string reading)
{
return (decimal.Parse(reading) / 10 - 273.15m);
}
}
}
I want the output to label1, but that's not important now, because the script isn't working.
If I remove all unused usings, system.management is gone too!
Thanks in advance!
PS: sorry for my worse English :/

I guess you are compiling for "Client profile" and need to compile for the "Full framework".

Ok, but how to that in MS Visual C# 2010?!?
|
|
|
|
|
- Display project properties (from contextual menu)
- Application tab
- Target framework
- Select appropriate target framework.
Client profile is a subset of the full framework that essentially contains classes that are mostly used by regular applications.

as the error suggests, you need two things: a using directive (or a heavy duty keyboard and a lot of time) and a reference.
I think you did the using directive yourself, without having the required reference. My advice is:
1.
Take care of the reference first, use Solution Pane, Add Reference; the MSDN doc on the class of interest tells you which one you need.
2.
Once the ref is in place, Intellisense will guide you trough the using directive.

I only can find this, but what do you mean? Do I miss a piece of code?
|
|
|
|

and that page says:
Assembly: System.Management (in System.Management.dll)
So add the reference to your project as I told you.

Better... but it's a directive, not a statement.

fixed that too. Thanks.

Now I Have A Combo box in my form and 1 label
I Need To Change label text to the selected language in combobox
so i writed code like this but i dont know how to get the value from database Please Help me
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("server=ARUN-09BF105DE8\\AR; initial catalog=prod; integrated security=true");
private void comboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
object scode;
scode = comboBox1.SelectedValue;
changelanguage(scode);
}
public void changelanguage(object code) {
con.Open();
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand();
SqlDataReader dr;
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("language", code);
com.CommandText = "SELECT translated FROM translation WHERE languagecode=@language";
dr=com.ExecuteReader();
}
Trust one who has tried

If you look here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/119568/best-practice-to-make-a-multi-language-application-in-c-winforms[^] there is a discussion of the various ways to achieve this. The way you have selected is not necessarily the best: it requires a version of SQLServer to be available to each PC on which your app will run, which may not be possible or desirable.
However:
public void changelanguage(object code) {
con.Open();
SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand();
SqlDataReader dr;
com.Parameters.AddWithValue("language", code);
com.CommandText = "SELECT translated FROM translation WHERE languagecode=@language";
dr=com.ExecuteReader();
while (dr.Read()) {
if ((string) dr["textinenglish"] == theWordIWantToTranslate) {
...
}
}
}
BTW: Please remember that you are responsible for Close-ing and Dispose-ing all of the SQLCommand and SQLConnection objects you create!
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

Don't forget the @.
And, yeah, that doesn't look like the best way to do it.

can you tell me a good way to do this?
