When doing a Drag & Drop SWF.Timer don't seem to work anymore.
What can I do in such case?

For now, as the OnDragOver event seems to be fire repetitively I use it.
But I cannot control the time interval.

Any better idea?

hey,

I have devloped a program using visual c# express that performs a word mail merge using a com object.

Now i am pretty new to .net and c# so this is where my problem is. I would like to know how .net works, as when I "publish" the project to a folder on my pc, and run the setup file, the program installs and it runs fine.

However when I tried to run it on my laptop it would not run. It told me it didnt have the correct word PIA (interop). I also notcied that my laptop is running a different version of word.

My questions are:

Firstly does a pc have to have the .net framework installed to run my c# application?

How can I develop my c# program so that the automation will work with a different version of word, and so that it isnt missing the required PIA?

Thanks for your time. Any help or pointers is very much appreciated.

Firstly I am coming from the VB side so this may or may not be relevant. Yes, you do have to have the .net framework installed unless you disable the net framework for that project. Each version of Word (and all office applications) needs it's own PIA, however, they are usually backwards compatible. So I always develop and deploy the PIA for the latest version of word that I have. As an aside the PIA for Word 2007 is not backwards compatible at the moment. Big Grin | :-D

thanks for your help.

Ok, so do you know if its possible to that the PIA installs on the machine during installation of my software?

If this is possible do you know any good help / turorials? I had a search but couldnt find much.

thanks again

To see what's causing the repair action to be activated, you should enable logging. See here[^] for details.

wizard based UI

I need to create a wizard based UI (windows forms), found the tab control but no property sheets. The Tab Control doesn’t appear to support a wizard mode; nor does it appear to be very flexible. Little hunting and pecking around (google & CP) doesn’t revel a lot. Any one have any tips or ticks? Perhaps an article somewhere?

I'm still in the learning faze with C#, so far its been um interesting. Smile | :)

I'd love to help, but unfortunatley I have prior commitments monitoring the length of my grass. :Andrew Bleakley:

The tab control has lots of bugs, and no wizard support.

I thought there was a new wizard control, but if I'm wrong, the easiest way is to impliment your pages as controls, and put them all on the one form which handles wizard state and moving between items.

C# .NET 1.1 - MethodBase.Invoke on virtual methods (dynamic method lookup)

Roman Nurik9-Aug-06 14:24

Hello all,

I was wondering if there was a way to overcome the "dynamic method lookup" done by MethodBase.Invoke when invoking virtual methods. For example:

public class A
{
	public virtual int Call()
	{
		return 1;
	}
}

public class B : A
{
	public override int Call()
	{
		return 2;
	}
}

... invoking it somewhere else ...

B obj = new B();
MethodInfo method = typeof(A).GetMethod("Call", BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly | BindingFlags.Public);
int a = method.Invoke(this, null);

the final value of a would be 2 and not 1.

Anyone know how to get around this?

(P.S. A page on the columbia university website details the default behavior[^] under the 'Remarks' section of Invoke )

Thanks in advance!

That's how virtual methods work, even if you call them directly. obj.Call would return 2, not 1, so why should Method.Invoke work differently? It would amount to bypassing the virtual method mechanism, wouldn't it?

Yes, that makes sense. But somehow, inside the method, doing something like

base.Call()

will actually invoke the superclass method.

Is there any way to simulate that functionality outside of the overriden method call?

Yeah it is possible ... instead of overriding the function in the derived class use the key word new ..ie

class B : A
{
public void new Call()
{
return 2;
}

}

Now if u create a object of class A and call the Call() function it would call A's definition of Call and not B's

Hope it helps
