Apologies for the shouting but this is important.
When answering a question please:
- Read the question carefully
- Understand that English isn't everyone's first language so be lenient of bad spelling and grammar
- If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or mark it down. Insults are not welcome
- If the question is inappropriate then click the 'vote to remove message' button
Insults, slap-downs and sarcasm aren't welcome. Let's work to help developers, not make them feel stupid.

For those new to message boards please try to follow a few simple rules when posting your question.- Choose the correct forum for your message. Posting a VB.NET question in the C++ forum will end in tears.
- Be specific! Don't ask "can someone send me the code to create an application that does 'X'. Pinpoint exactly what it is you need help with.
- Keep the subject line brief, but descriptive. eg "File Serialization problem"
- Keep the question as brief as possible. If you have to include code, include the smallest snippet of code you can.
- Be careful when including code that you haven't made a typo. Typing mistakes can become the focal point instead of the actual question you asked.
- Do not remove or empty a message if others have replied. Keep the thread intact and available for others to search and read. If your problem was answered then edit your message and add "[Solved]" to the subject line of the original post, and cast an approval vote to the one or several answers that really helped you.
- If you are posting source code with your question, place it inside <pre></pre> tags. We advise you also check the "Encode HTML tags when pasting" checkbox before pasting anything inside the PRE block, and make sure "Ignore HTML tags in this message" check box is unchecked.
- Be courteous and DON'T SHOUT. Everyone here helps because they enjoy helping others, not because it's their job.
- Please do not post links to your question in one forum from another, unrelated forum (such as the lounge). It will be deleted.
- Do not be abusive, offensive, inappropriate or harass anyone on the boards. Doing so will get you kicked off and banned. Play nice.
- If you have a school or university assignment, assume that your teacher or lecturer is also reading these forums.
- No advertising or soliciting.
- We reserve the right to move your posts to a more appropriate forum or to delete anything deemed inappropriate or illegal.
cheers,

Can I use the IDispatch::Invoke interface of an ActiveX control to retrieve specific data? The control in question is a Siebel List control and I want retrieve the value of a given cell in a specific column or set of columns. Is this possible?
Thank you in advance,

I have an MDI application. In it, I have a panel docked to the top as a 'header' and a flowlayoutpanel docked to the right for a menu. This leaves everything else to be the MDI container for children forms. Everything works well here, and while polishing off the application I decided to set a background image for the MDI container.
Great, looks great.
There is a button which will shrink the menu to expand the MDI container area, but for some reason, despite my background image being set to stretch, it is never repainted and I get a very awkward background. This applies for when you stretch the MDI container by using the horizontal and vertical scroll bars.
Anyone know how I can force the background to be repainted when my application is resized or controls are hidden / expanded to 'grow' the MDI container?
If requested, images will follow to demonstrate behavior.

Hi,
The Microsoft.Win32 namespace has a SystemEvents class containing a SessionEnding event. The associated SessionEndingEventArgs has a Reason property which can have a value of Logoff or SystemShutdown. I think that's what you need.

Log in through FTP and get the directories or files available, if it is a webserver and you're trying to get the contents of that directory, typically if there is no index file it will show you a list of files and directories available. If there is an index file, as far as I know you're out of luck.

Surely all this information is already available to the network administrator in various logs.
This has more than a wiff of malicious software  .

I think he either uses it to put himself to sleep or thinks we are complete idiots. No doubt someone will point him to an article that will allow him to do this.

You can have a service that will read the url from the browser and collect it somewhere. Then at a predefined time, it can get all of that and send it in email.
Do not rely on checking history since, user can clear it any time and you wont get correct result.
Google would tell how to get the url from browser.

This is what a proxy server is for. You don't install something like this on every client PC. You set it up between your clients and the Internet. The clients browsers would have to do through the proxy to get at the Internet. The proxy does all the filtering for blocked sites and can log all activity.

So your client doesn't know how to use his proxy server, can't be bothered to look in the help, and you have agreed to provide him with something he already has. Monitoring this on each PC is insane when there are already server logs and reporting built in to all proxy server software to give him the information he wants. Or does you client have every machine in the office separately connected to their own individual internet connections?
This is a basic network administration task not a programming exercise.
Plus of course while you can monitor browser activity and send the visited URL list to someone, that is definitely Hacker territory. Such software exists already and are known as trojan horse viruses, malware etc.
If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it. Margaret Fuller (1810 - 1850)www.JacksonSoft.co.uk

I don't get that point. How can reading internet history or the current url be malicious? I dont see any extremely important data in URLs which needs to be secured from others. If it was the case, why keep it in url in first place.

There are existing tools for achieving this, any semi competant network administrator knows how and where to set this type of monitoring up. The person wants to create a monitoring system outside the standard channels that will periodicalyy email all the URL to ... someone. While it may not be malicious it feels that way to me.
If I manage to get that app onto your machine, I get all the URLs you visit, I now know your social profile and any online banking sites you visit. I can tailor a phishing attack directly at you. Scuse me while I just go and get my foil beanie but I recently got an email from my daughter inviting me to facebook, the only clue was that she did not use her married name and sure enough there was a trojan at the other end of the link.
If this is innocent I am willing to appologise, but I will not help this person. As Bob said, he got the contract with no knowledge how to acheive the clients needs.

The requirement is awful, I agree. There must be a proxy server to monitor all this. But if the application is for some school/college or something on similar lines, I suspect they would have one.
Mycroft Holmes wrote: If I manage to get that app onto your machine, I get all the URLs you visit, I now know your social profile
Absolutely not required. Facebook or many other social profiles can be obtained very easily (just a click away, seriously). Hence I would not waste time in making such application if I had wrong intentions.

Sorry, but I don't care. I was just curious why you thought this application malicious.
