The Microsoft PropertyGrid, in the way it is available to the developer, is not really suitable for the end-user. It's not flexible enough and does not offer enough customization options. But a PropertyGrid in itself, is really suitable in so many cases... If it's done well, it can do the job better than any other control. I have written a paper some time ago showcasing a lot of examples in the industry: Why use a PropertyGrid in your application?

A property grid simply doesn't work that way. You can't give it a bunch of database rows and expect it to display them.
A PropertyGrid control shows you the public properties of an object, like an instance of a TextBox, Label, DataGridView, ...
It does NOT show the rows of a database table. For that, you'd need to use a DataGridView, or some other bindable grid control.

Hi Dana,
You can put whatever you want in a PropertyGrid as long as you write a class that will publish the properties you want. It has to implement ICustomTypeDescriptor. If you drop it to the SelectedObject property, you will see the custom properties. With .Net 2.0 you can also use the TypeDescriptionProvider so that you don't have to modify your existing class (the DataTable) to make it implement ICustomTypeDescriptor. You will find some resources about this subject on the PropertyGrid Resource List.
If a commercial component is an option for you, you have also Smart PropertyGrid. It has a mode where you can simply call AppendProperty-like methods and fill the grid completely dynamicall without having to build separate TypeDescriptor classes.
I hope this helps.

The best way to do this is to write your pages as controls, and populate them all on the one form, then you can show/hide controls and only ever have one form visible. The other option is to have the login popup as a child, and then get rid of that, and maintain your main form after that ( I assume the login form is a different size ). Also, you can close any form by calling it's Close() method.

This is how I send e-mails using Gmail[^] (the code is in C#, but I guess you'll work it out).
MailMessage has Attachments[^] property, so there should be no problem to attach a file.

I think that you should use a timer in your application to send e-mail periodically.

will this automatically attach the report while sending?
anyway thanks very mch 4 ur help.

Dim s As New System.Web.Mail.MailAttachment("Insert path to file here in form of a string")
.Attachments.Add(s)
--> adding a attachment to the message

In VBA environment I have 2 Tabs Inv and Att. When I click on Checkbox in Inv and then click on the next tab which is Att and go back to Inv tab from Att the CheckBoxes in the Inv tab disappear.
So, my question is what should I change in the settings inorder for CheckBoxes in the Inv tab not to disappear?? I tried Hide Selection as False and tried MultiSelect as true but it does not work.
|
|
|
|
|
You have two tabs in what?? Access, Excel, Word, something else??? Is this a tab control?? What are these checkboxes sitting on??
There are no settings to change. There is something your code is doing to cause this or you're expecting functionality that isn't there by default.

I built a database driven application, when i tried to publish this by building my own setup project and what not, when i install and run the program i get errors saying it can't link to the database etc. Does anyone know why or, what's the proper procedure for publishing database driven apps, do i need to include the database in the setup file?
|
|
|
|
|
you need not to include the database file in the set-up project,but you have to install the database in the machine where the application is running.......moreover if its a client-server application then install the database in the server......
and finally check for the connection string whether it is pointing to the right database in the right machine or not......

ok. how do i install the database and what not and set the connection string correctly?
|
|
|
|
|
First, you have to say which database you're using. Sql Server, MySQL, Access?? Then you have to tell us what deployment method you're using. Is it ClickOnce, or a Setup and Deployment project, creating an .MSI installation, or something else??

Ok i'm doing a setup deployment project using an SQL database.
