Hi,
I am trying to create a form with the following
attributes:
1. A sizable border
2. Close button
3. No icon in the upper left hand corner
All of this can be accomplished using the Sizable
FormBorderStyle, but the icon remains. Does anyone know how to do this?

IIRC, since the form is sizable, you can't get rid of the icon using properties. I think your going to have to owner draw the title bar of the form. I DON'T have any example code, nor do I know of any. But, in theory, it's possible to do. Look into overriding WndProc and handling the WM_NCPAINT message.

What if form is not resizable?

The only ones that support no icon in the upper left corner are the ToolWindows and None borders.

If you just don't want to see an icon, the simplest way is to just create a transparent 16x16 icon file and select that for the form's icon. Of course the title will still be offset the same, and the drop down menu will appear if the user clicks in the space.
If you want to get rid of all those, you'll have to custom draw the title area. But if you just want a no icon appearance, a transparent icon is far easier.

Why does this sound like homework?

Congratulations, Maria. You just alienated your target audience. I suggest you pay for some advertising on this site, otherwise, I guarentee that the majority of people who read this will assume that you're
a/ cheap
b/ dishonest
c/ too poor to advertise and therefore unlikely to be around in 6 months time.

Christian,
I don't really understand your reaction. It is not an advertisment, it is only a news.
Thanks.

Maybe it would be wise to read up on the terms "net-iquette" and "acceptable use for programming forums"

It's a news item that brings attention to your product, aka: advertisement.
If this was a product or site update bulletin, you would be much better served putting it up on your own site, in your own forums or emailing your customers directly.

You stupid cow. I'm sure you don't understand. That says more about how clueless you and your company are than anything that went before it.

I want to display the content of a word document in a text box when the filename is highlighted on a listbox.
i used the following code to do it:
Dim app As Word.Application
app = New Word.ApplicationClass()
Dim nullobj As Object
nullobj = System.Reflection.Missing.Value
Dim strFileDisplay As Object
Dim doc As Word.Document
doc = app.Documents.Open(lstResult.SelectedItem, nullobj, True, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj, nullobj)
doc.ActiveWindow.Selection.WholeStory()
doc.ActiveWindow.Selection.Copy()
doc.ActiveWindow.Close()
The target is accomplished completely.
The 2nd target is when u double click the filename(.doc), the file shd be opened in MS Word.
This is also acheived.
But the problem is when it is run on client machine, it gives the following problem:
when u highlight a filename on the listbox;
"u get the message “file is in use by another application or user, (C:\Documents and setting\...\normal.dot)”. Then it opens a box to save the file and launches an instance of MS Word.
If you double click on the file you can eventually open it, but Word opens a dialog box that says “changes have been made that affect the global template, Normal. Do you want to save those changes?”. "
What needs to be done to fix this?

I am having a slight prob I am having a hard time finding out how to use an object and a select statement to get more then one value from a couple of tables I know the select statement I just need to know how to get it into my object.... Any clues maybe a for each statement I am not sure but a basic answer would be cool.
|

You'll have to be more specific. Your question is very vague. What object? What exectly are your trying to do? And what do you mean by "get it into my object"?

I am trying to get information like select Lastname, firstname, TimeofAppt from cust, appt, employee, person where P.ID = E.EmpID and C.CustID = A.CustID and E.Empid = A.EMpid and E.EmpID = {var EmployeeID}
The selected values are going into an object that I have create appt Cust and emloyee objects so I can display the information in the tables based on the EmpID that is saved in seperate var
I know how to get the value from one thing into one var but I need more then one..... it doesnt even have to be an object just many vars ....

I'm assuming you're using SQL Server ... You could write an SQL query to lookup the records you need. It looks like you've already written the bulk of the statement. Check into Parameterized Queries to allow you submit the EmployeeID as a parameter. Try checking out this[^] small example on MSDN.

Hi, I have a picture control on the form (I'm using vb.net). I can display a picture on that control by using Image.FromFile and supply the picture path. But my problem is some picture is not good to display in picture box. I want the user to doubleclick on picture box then, it will display the picture in an external editor (such as Paint editor or Ms photo editor). But I don't know the way of the code to do that. Could any one give me a sample code to do that????

If the viewer associated with the extension should be started:
<br />
System.Diagnostics.Process p = new System.Diagnostics.Process();<br />
p.StartInfo.FileName = @"C:\test.jpg";<br />
p.Start();<br />
if you want to start a special editor than specifiy its executable name as FileName and give it the right Arguments, e.g.:
<br />
System.Diagnostics.Process p = new System.Diagnostics.Process();<br />
p.StartInfo.Arguments = @"C:\test.jpg";<br />
p.StartInfo.FileName = @"C:\Program Files\MyViewer\MyViewer.exe";<br />
p.Start();<br />
