Use a checkbox and set its Appearance property to Button. I'm glad MS did that - it really is better than having a different control, becuase the behavior of the toggle button is the same as the checkbox, so why not have them be different Appearances of the same control?

Regards,
Is it possible to set a form (container)'s transparency independent of its child components and controls??
I mean if I set Form's opaque to 50% all controls get 50% opaque too while I want them still at 100%
any guid may help and is appreciated.
Thanks

As far as I remember, the Opacity property is declared within the Form class itself, not anything more generic. Thus, I can see 2 options:
1. Make a seperate embedded form for your controls (although I'm not sure this would work)
2. Override the paint handler for each control.
Of course, I could be wrong....

Hi,
Having not found a good XPath tutorial out there yet, here is my question..
This is how I try to display the fisrtname of the first contact in the Contact.xml file,
Consider this code:
XmlDocument myDoc = new XmlDocument();<br />
myDoc.Load(Application.StartupPath + "\\Contact.xml");<br />
txtPrénom.Text = myDoc.SelectSingleNode("//Prenom").Value;
What am I missing here?
Thank you for your help!

try
txtPrénom.Text = myDoc.SelectSingleNode("//Prenom[first()]").Value;

SelectSingleNode returns first node matching XPath so your code should IMHO work, but only if "Prenom" is element (not attribute). To select attrbute you need to use this XPath //@Prenom. You can also use xpath like following:
Xml:
<contacts>
<contact firstname="Bill">
...
<contact>
...
</contacts>
<br /><br />
XPath: <code>contacts/contact/@firstname</code> returns 'Bill'
Great XPath tutorial is at www.w3schools.com[^].

You have the right idea, but it depends on your actual XML.
I suggest getting the node directly and looking at it. This will help answer your question.
<names><Prenom>Dog</Prenom><Prenom>Cat</Prenom></names>
XmlNode node = doc.SelectSingleNode("//Prenom");
node.Value == null
node.InnerText == "Dog"

Hi!
The point is that while scrolling within a datagrid, sometimes the gridloses focus with no reason because I was just scrolling.The class below simply illustrates this(while scrolling you'll get a message)

System.Windows.Forms.Application provides static function. I need to get 'this' instance of the Application, just like AfxGetApp provided in MFC, or the Application instance in VB.
Any ideas?
|
|
|
|
|
Hey !
In VB we can easily access the Application object. This is also available in MFC as AfxGetApp().
What is the C# .NET equivalent?

Hello, I want to make a dialog with a given size for pocket pc.
For doing that I have derived my class from System.Windows.Forms.Form and I have set the property Size for my form with my prefered size. But the result is not what I have expected.
Do you know what can be the solution for my problem?
public class SelectionTool : System.Windows.Forms.Form
{
public SelectionTool(String title, String lblText){
InitializeComponent();
}
private void InitializeComponent()
{
//that line of code doesn't set the size for my form
this.Size = new Size(20,40);
.....
this.ShowDialog();
}
}

I am C# beginner. I just started to practise
on console aplications.
And I already have problem.
How to supply C function _getch()
i.e. Get a character from the console.
Thanx
viliam

Your best bet is probably to write a DLL in C that performs any low-level input, then use the Platform Invoke feature to access that.
You can also P/Invoke _getch directly.
[DllImport("msvcr71.dll", CallingConvention = CallingConvention.Cdecl)]
static extern int _getwch();
[STAThread]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine( "Press any key to continue" );
Console.Out.Flush();
char ch = (char) _getwch();
Console.WriteLine( "You pressed {0}", ch );
}You must call Flush, because the Console class performs buffering on the stream. Failing to do so can cause the prompt to be displayed after _getwch executes, not before.
Note that I used the wide-character version, _getwch, because the CLR uses wide characters internally.

What about Console.Read() ? Doesn't that work?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Oh ok... I guess I missed the point of the post. 
|
|
|
|
|
Actually I don't think you did... I'm sure he just wants to read some character from the console...

Hi,
I would enjoy playing a short custom sound with C# (like a beep) when the mouse moves over a button for example, like Ineternet Explorer does.
Would anybody help me ? Thanks.
|
|
|
|
|
Use managed DirectX or use P/Invoke to call the play sound method in the Win32 API.
The graveyards are filled with indispensible men.

Hi all.
I'm trying to set the IP of my NIC's. I have found nice examples showing how to get the IP through the WMI, but how can I set it?
All hints are appreciated.
