Hi,
I have 2 forms. One is the main form and another is just a normal form. In the main form, I have two buttons. One is to open modeless form and another is to open modal form (using ShowDialog()). When I clicked the first button, it will show modeless form. However, if I clicked the second button and the modal form is open, the first modeless form can't be access anymore (until the modal form is closed).
Any idea how to allow this modeless form to be accessible?
Thanks for any help

Hey
That's why they made Modals!!!
but if you used your second form as a modalDialog for preventing access to the mainForm. the simplest way to get rid of it (if you don't care your controls going to be Grey) is to use Show instead of show dialog and pass the mainform instance to form (previously was shown as modal) and disable the mainForm then after hiding the dialog enable it again.

Hope its going to help!

Write it to a FileStream[^]

Err..
Stream myStream = ...
byte[] data = new byte[myStream.Length];
myStream.Write(data, 0, (int)myStream.Length);
FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"C:\", FileMode.Create);
fs.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
fs.Close();
Would probably work. And you should probably buy yourself a beginners book.

theoretically u r right but in the "Stream" class there is no "Length" property. 
|
|
|
|

Well what kind of stream do you actually have? Because that probably does have a length property.

I have created a set up project for my application and it works great. Now I want to run some SQL Queries during installation to create a database on the target machine. How can I do this?
|

I am currently working on developing an application that needs to have the client automatically receive changes to the back end database. The back end db is a SQL2005, with the DAL on a second server to query the SQL and an AS-400. The clients are windows forms. I need for the treeviews and datagrids on the windows forms to receive the updates when other users have made changes to the SQL database. The AS-400 is infromational only so I do not need to capture the changes. I ahve been looking at using timers to create a polling routine, but do not feel that they may be the best method. I ahve also looked at the SQL 2005 Notification Service, which would allow me to push the notices to the DAL Server but not to the clients. I am looking for any suggestions as to best practice as I feel this is a common scenerio but have nto been able to find much documentation on the best wayt o handle. The development language is Visual Sturdio 2008 c# with Framework 3.5.
Thanks for any suggestions

Just want to mention that constantly keeping clients up to date can be a real killer in overall performance (and also may be in complexity).
However, how the client communicates with the middle-tier?
The need to optimize rises from a bad design.

The updates could be done on a timed basis but would rather push the updates down to the clients when there is actually somethign to push. The clents make a call to the DataServer that then uses .Net remoting and web services to tlak to the different back end database servers. The performance concern is why I am looking for a way to have the data published form the server rather then the cleints makeing continous calls to the server if there is nothing there.
The app is a Quote to Order Request system that ties into a legacy system in the end. There are about 30 sales people creating the Order Request, for 3 Order Processors. The Order Processors need to get notified of a request when it comes in. A delay of a few minutes is acceptable on the notification. The request are generated by the Sales in qa SQL 2005 database. The Order Processing system looks at subsets of the data int he SQL 2005 database to allow them to process the request in the AS-400.

Ok, good info, thanks.
But actually I meant to ask what technology is used when communicating between client and middle tier. Is it Web Services, WCF or something else?
If you need to push the info to the client and you have database connection only at middle tier, I believe that the solution for the client is technology dependent.

OK, the title is a bit confusing so let me explain what I want to do.
I'm looking to write an application that sends keystrokes so that the Windows XP "idle timer" gets reset to prevent a screensaver from starting.
I have tried writing an application that sends keystrokes to itself, but that does not do the trick. I'm guessing that the events need to come from a lower level in the system. So, I'm wondering if/how this can be done.
Thanks in advance for any help.

At a guess you;ll need to set up a global keyboard hook to do that. Hooking the read event will let you access input to any application which mean's you're tying into a low level OS component, afaik the send event is at the same level.
Today's lesson is brought to you by the word "niggardly". Remember kids, don't attribute to racism what can be explained by Scandinavian language roots.

Why not just disable the screensaver while your program is running? As shown here[^] or maybe here[^]

Hello!
I've created a static class (S) that is extended by a dynamic class (D) during run-time. That means D inherits S and appends some new properties to it, by using System.Reflection.Emit (thanx to the great articles here).
How do I reference the class that does _not_ exist at compile-time? The following article for example, shows how to bind methods. But in that example, the class itself does exist and thus can be found by the compiler. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k3a58006.aspx[^]
Cheers!

Double posting won't give you twice as many answers compared to posting only once. More likely the amount is 1/(NumberOfRepeats).
