That will not suffice.
You will need the DirectX SDK (download the 2003 summer update), and installed Managed DIrectX (run the dxsetup.exe with /InstallManagedDX)
Q:What does the derived class in C# tell to it's parent?
A:All your base are belong to us!

Thank you:
Where can I get the "Managed DIrectX ".

I'm rather new to oleDatabases, but I got my table setup, and connected to it in my application using the oleDbDataAdapter. I have a DataSet which gets my rows from my .mdb table, and a combobox which fills from a column in this dataset. Here are my questions:
When I fill my dataset, my combobox automatically puts the top entry of the column into the textview. I want the text to remain blank, but the container to be filled. For some reason, comboBox1.Text = ""; doesn't do the trick, even if I call it directly after filling my dataset. How do I keep the text in my comboBox from selecting the first element in the container?
After I choose an item in the container, I would like to fill other text boxes with information from the same row in my table as the item in the combo box. How do I find and retrieve the row from my dataset?
Thanks a lot for the help. I hope I wasn't too vague on anything!

Try selecting the index -1 to not select the first item in the list.
comboBox1.SelectedIndex = -1;
You can also use the selected index to get an offset into the dataset to get the text, but I'm sure there is a better way.

hello, all.
I am trying to convert a struct from VB to c# in order to use an old DLL. Here is the definition in VB
Public Type CHost
Host As String * 60
Port As String * 5
Info As String * 120 'Inof returned from host
Timeout As String * 10
End Type
In the sample VB code:
Public Declare Function CConnect Lib "OLDDLL.DLL" (Host As CHost) As Integer
iError = CConnect(TheHost)
and then the CHost.Info was set by the remote host.
I converted it to(C#)
public struct CHost
{
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAs(System.Runtime.InteropServices.UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=60)]
public string Host; //host name
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAs(System.Runtime.InteropServices.UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=5)]
public string Port; //host port
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAs(System.Runtime.InteropServices.UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=120)]
public string Info; //Info returned from remote host
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.MarshalAs(System.Runtime.InteropServices.UnmanagedType.ByValTStr,SizeConst=5)]
public string Timeout; //timeout
};
in my c# code.
[DllImport("OLDDLL",EntryPoint="CConnect")]
public static extern short CConnect(ref CHost Host);
short ierror = CConnect(ref theHost);
I can connect to the remote host but the theHost.Info was not set.
Could anybody let me know what I was doing wrong and what is the right way to do it?

Hi,
SQLHelpder class is given in "Data Access Application Block". This block sample code is availabe on
Microsoft MSDN. Why am I using this becuase of time saving. Useful overloads are available to do more in less time.
What I need in a form is the newly added IDs in a table. For example I wrote the following code
//This module will insert a new role in the tblRole table by calling the stored procedure uspRoleNew
SqlParameter[] arparam = new SqlParameter[9];
arparam[0] = new SqlParameter("@pRoleName",SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
arparam[0].Value= mRoleName;
arparam[1] = new SqlParameter("@pRoleDesc", SqlDbType.VarChar,50);
arparam[1].Value= mRoleDescription;
.
.
. .
arparam[8] = new SqlParameter("@pRoleIDout", SqlDbType.Int);
arparam[8].Direction=ParameterDirection.Output;
SqlHelper.ExecuteNonQuery(clsGeneral.conStr, "uspRoleNew", arparam);
int _RoleID;
_RoleID = (int)arparam[8].Value;
In paramerter[8] i want the newly added ID. But SqlHelper is not returning any value.
Below is the alternative solution for the above problem
mSqlCommand.Connection= _Sqlconn;
mSqlCommand.CommandText="uspRoleNew";
mSqlCommand.CommandType=CommandType.StoredProcedure;
mSqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@pRoleName",SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
mSqlCommand.Parameters[0].Value=mRoleName;
mSqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@pRoleDesc", SqlDbType.VarChar,50);
mSqlCommand.Parameters[1].Value= mRoleDescription;
mSqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@pRoleIDout", SqlDbType.Int);
mSqlCommand.Parameters["@pRoleIDout"].Direction= ParameterDirection.Output;
_Sqlconn.Open();
mSqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
mRoleID = (int)mSqlCommand.Parameters["@pRoleIDout"].Value;
return mRoleID;
QUESTION ????? is Why sqlhelper not doing this. If u r aware of "Data Access Application Block" plz reply.

Hi,
Would anybody plz screw up this code.
SqlParameter[] arparam = new SqlParameter[3];
int _GroupID;
arparam[0] = new SqlParameter("@pGroupName",SqlDbType.VarChar, 50);
arparam[0].Value= mGroupName;
arparam[1] = new SqlParameter("@pGroupDesc", SqlDbType.VarChar,50);
arparam[1].Value= mGroupDescription;
arparam[2] = new SqlParameter("@pGroupIDout", SqlDbType.Int);
arparam[2].Direction=ParameterDirection.Output;
SqlConnection _Sqlconn = new SqlConnection(clsGeneral.conStr);
SqlCommand mSqlCommand = new SqlCommand();
mSqlCommand.Connection= _Sqlconn;
mSqlCommand.CommandText="uspGroupNew";
mSqlCommand.CommandType=CommandType.StoredProcedure;
mSqlCommand.Parameters.Add(arparam);
_Sqlconn.Open();
mSqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
_GroupID = (int)mSqlCommand.Parameters["@pGroupIDout"].Value;
return _GroupID;

How would you like us to screw it up? You can start by changing random letters in variable and class names so that it will not compile. If you'd also like some runtime errors, change the name of a couple of stored procedures.

mSqlCommand.Parameters.Add(arparam);
There is no overload of SqlCommand.Parameters.Add that accepts an array of parameters as an argument.

Hi,
I have a rather simple problem, yet I can't find an acceptable solution. It isn't much of a problem for users running my application at high resolution (1280x1024 for example), but it really is for 800x600 users (too bad they still exist!)
My application is a MDI and I use FormStartPosition.WindowsDefaultBounds for each child form in order for them to open underneath the previous one (cascade).
The problem is that if I open 3 or 4 windows, a scrollbar shows up on my MDI form and the user needs to scroll to see the new windows. It happens even when no windows are open (ie: 4 windows were opened, then closed, the user will need to scroll to see the next opened window because it is not positionned at the top of the screen like it should).
Is there an easy solution to this? Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks!
Carl

You would have to track the position of the last form you opened. Then add whatever offsets you need in order to keep the next window inside the client area. You would be managing the position and size of the child forms yourself. Simply create a new instance of your child form, set its position and size properties, then show it.

Isn't supposed to be done automatically for me???

The Default behavior doesn't take into account the size of the child window your opening... so no, it won't do it for you.
The Default behavior will walk down the parent window's client area adding up to 10 child windows stepping down and to the right until the new child window's title bar is half way down the client area of the parent window. It will then start at the top-left corner of the parent client area again and start over. It will do this without any reguard to the size of the child windows...
So if you want the entire child window inside the parent client area, you're goin got have to supply your own code for placing the child windows with reguard to it's size.

I'm having a problem with using the Web Browser ActiveX control in a C# windows form app. The circumstance is easily reproducable:
Create the boiler plate example of this using the VS toolbox to create the ActiveX wrapper and add then drag it into your C# form.
Now, open up a web page with your forms app. For instance, mail.yahoo.com. Click in the user name entry field so that focus is there. Now minimize your form app and then bring it right back up. All of a sudden that entry field no longer has the focus.
I have another example using this control through a VC++ 6 MFC SDI app and ironically, it works fine there (the entry field still has focus).
Any ideas on what to look at? I thought it might have to do with message routing differences between windows forms and MFC SDI but hooking the app up to Spy++ didn't reveal anything. Now I'm thinking it's a problem with the .NET generated wrapper but I'm at a loss as to what to do about it.
???
any help appreciated!

VS.NET doesn't let you reference a .exe. It is possible, but you'll have to use the command line compiler (csc.exe) or a build tool like NAnt[^].

I figure that to draw my little windows style borders, i need to actualy have a valid handle to the grahics device for the control.
Now, I have this section of code i have included in my component constructor that causes a problem:
Graphics clientDC = this.CreateGraphics(); <br />
IntPtr hdc = clientDC.GetHdc(); <br />
pDC = ThemeAPI.CreateCompatibleDC(hdc);<br />
clientDC.Dispose();
That throws the following error on run time:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in system.drawing.dll
Additional information: The object is currently in use elsewhere.
Now, i know it's caused by the existence of the ClientDC, but i'm not sure how to go about solving this one.
I need to get the creatgraphics for the component in question, but I guess, as i'm creating three duplicate components at initialisation, it's running three seperate threads at once, and it's not liking the use of the Device Context. If i don't dispose of it, the program runs for a while before crashing.
Should I construct a graphics handle in the parent form?

Call clientDC.ReleaseHdc(pDC) when you're done with the HDC, then dispose your Graphics object.
