t = f;
} else {
t.Activate();
return;
}
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error...!!!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
}
}
private void FORWARDToolStripMenuItem_Click(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
try {
Form t = new Form();
for (int i = Application.OpenForms.Count - 1; i >= 0; i += -1) {
Form f = Application.OpenForms(i);
if (!object.ReferenceEquals(f, this.ActiveMdiChild)) {
t = f;
} else {
t.Activate();
return;
}
}
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error...!!!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error);
}
}
can anyone tell me whats is the error in
Form f = Application.OpenForms(i);
backward is working forward is not working help me plz

VB uses round brackets '(' and ')' for both Method calls, and array accesses: C# doesn't.
round brackets indicate a method call:
Form f = Application.OpenForms(i); while square brackets '[' and ']' indicate an array:
Form f = Application.OpenForms[i];
Since Application.OpenForms is a Collection from the line above:
for (int i = Application.OpenForms.Count - 1; i >= 0; i += -1) {
You need to use square brackets, not round.
But...I'd do it with a foreach:
foreach (Form f in Application.OpenForms)
{
if (f != ActiveMdiChild)
{
...
Please, don't grab random chunks of VB and throw them through a code converter - they don't always get it right, and when they don't you need to think about them!

Well, first off, C# uses [] to index an array, not ().
So that line should be Form f = Application.OpenForms[i].
Also, you need to give more information, like messages from the Error Window, to help us help you. The issue this time was obvious, but next time it may not be so.
If you want to do conversions between VB and C#, you may want to use an online convertor like the one from Telerik[^].

While I don't have the energy/stamina to really get deeply into understanding your code, let me point out a few things that may be helpful:
1. when you create a new Form named 't inside a method, a new instance of a Form is created ... however, the Application.ActiveForms property will not be incremented; it is only changed when you 'Show the Form, not when the new Form is loaded. The moment you exit the method, the variable 't ... of course ... is no longer valid (however, the Form it points to, is, of course, still there).
1.a. in the case of an MDI app, Application.OpenForms has a 'count of #1 when the MDI Form is opened.
1.b. when you 'Hide a Form that has been 'shown, it remains in the Application.OpenForms collection. and, of course, when you 'close it it is removed from that collection.
2. when you assign an existing Form to 't, you have then thrown away the reference to a Form in 't !
The key issue for planning the relatively simple task of handling "forward and back" is whether you will have multiple MDIChildForms open at once, or want to show them one-at-a-time. Another issue is whether you let the user close a given MDIChildForm, or instead 'Hide that Form so you can re-use it.
If you do allow the user to 'Close a child Form then: do you re-create it on demand ?
I suggest you post more information here about what you are trying to do, and answer the specific questions I've asked. I'll be happy to help with your code, when I know a little more about your goal.

Hi All,
I use visual Studio 2005 and build a web application and it is running at customer server from 2010.
My problem is when I try to run it from Code in visual studio 2005
the login page shown and when I click the login button the following error occurred.
" Validation of viewstate MAC failed. If this application is hosted by a Web Farm or cluster, ensure that <machinekey> configuration specifies the same validationKey and validation algorithm. AutoGenerate cannot be used in a cluster".
Please help me ASAP to solve this issue.
Thank You

Wrong forum. This has nothing to do with C#. You'll want to post this question in the ASP.NET[^] forum.

I have an windows Application , which has a grid in the inner most child window. But I fail to find the handle of the controls placed inside this child window. How can I scarpe such controls . Please help .
|
|
|
|
|
Show us what you tried - we have no idea how you organised stuff (or even exactly what you are trying to do!)
Code fragments help us understand: so give us the way you load the grid (and exactly what kind of grid it is), and the code you tried to "scrape" the controls.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

And, please include your explanation of exactly what "scrape" means in this context; we most often encounter the term "scrape" in the context of selecting content from a web-page.

If you got source code or are using reflection:
Child controls of Windows Forms windows can be accessed via the .Controls property (of the window).
"Content" of a WPF Window can be accessed via the .Content property.
|
|
|
|
|
If there's no handle, it might not be a control; it may be simply drawn by the application itself.

What type of "windows application" do you have? Is it a .Net Windows Forms application, a WPF application, an old style C++ application, a Java application with Ant or Swing, ...?
Some of them do not use Windows controls for all purposes, sometimes they use them for underlying containers only (Swing, WPF), and then the inner "controls" do not have a handle.

Hi there !
All of my Form in my Application Connect to the Database by a Class for e.g. : myClass , but I want my class read Connection String from a Text File or a ini File . plz help me How Can I do it ?
Thanks in Advance!
|
|
|
|
|
For a Text file, it's trivial:
string strConnect = File.ReadAllText(pathToTextFile);
But a better way is to use the built in settings: Using Application Settings and User Settings[^]

Thanks ,
Is it possible to use a Connection String by AttachDbFilename for SQL Sever(not for SQLExpress)
thanks...
|
|
|
|

No.
Attaching is a special "developer mode" which starts a new instance of SQL server to handle that specific database and no other.

Hello,
I have a requirement of triggering my application on Ctrl+d only when user is in Windows Explorer. For that I have an ahk script which works perfectly..
#IfWinActive ahk_class CabinetWClass
^d::
Run "C:\myapp.exe"
return
#IfWinActive ; turn off context sensitivity
But I want implement the same in C#, While searching I came to know that this can be done using Autohotkey.dll from this site But no where I got any working dll.
How to achieve in my requirement in c# ?
I got a project which gets the keyboard entries when it is in foreground but how to catch the keyboard entries of other window (In my case Windows Explorer) while my app is running in background?
Please help.

You can see an answer on how to use RegisterHotKey here[^].
Inside the handler you would have to get the currently active window handle using GetForegroundWindow function (Windows)[^]. You then pass that handle to the GetWindowThreadProcessId function (Windows)[^] to get the Process ID (PID) of the window. Compare that to the list of Process ID's you can get from the Process class and make sure the process name is "Explorer.exe". If there's a match, do whatever you need to do.

hello..
my question is :: how to store MAC address at installation time of exe in C#(visual studio 2010)
|
|
|
|
|
Getting the MAC is pretty simple: Retrieving IP and MAC addresses for a LAN[^] has the code (search for GetMacAddress).
Storing it isn't difficult either. If you save it in a "sensible place" under a folder whose name is the application Guid in a file you can read: Where should I store my data?[^] shows the code.
The PhysicalAddress Class (System.Net.NetworkInformation)[^] has both ToString and Parse methods which help you store it.
But...If this is as a anti-piracy method, it's not that good. MAC addresses are easy to spoof, and you will probably annoy more legitimate users than dissuade thieves.

Is it possible to change the url of a winform webbrowser through an external c#.net application? Basically I'd like to pick a button in one application, and have it start the exe for the other and navigate it to the correct url
|
|
|
|
|
You can pass command line arguments to the .exe
Snaffled from SO with this search[^]
static void Main(string[] args)
{
for (int i = 0; i < args.Length; i++) {
Console.WriteLine("args[{0}] == {1}", i, args[i]);
}
}
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity
