How do I change the color of the forms frame in my application?
The color is now depending on the settings the users have done in Windows Display Properties, and I want to get control over colors in my application? I thought this would be simple, but I cannot find any ease way to do it...

The non-client areas of your forms (board and titlebar) are determined by the system. The only way to change those colors is to ownerdraw the entire form. You'll have to handle all the non-client painting messages and do all the drawing of the non-client area yourself.
Is it really worth the work?

Thanks Dave,
as I said "I thought this would be simple" but after trying some stuff (like changing the SysColors when the form is activated and restore when deactivated) I think I agree. Maybe it is not really worth the effort...
I will try one more approach and if it is not good I'll surrender.

I want to know why this does not work. It is very simple, but when I click on it, it does not show the message box. I want to know why.
<br />
MainMenu mainMenu1 = new MainMenu();<br />
MenuItem menuItem1 = new MenuItem("&File");<br />
<br />
menuItem1.MenuItems.Add("Data");<br />
menuItem1.MenuItems.Add("Computer"); <br />
menuItem1.MenuItems.Add("Keyboard");<br />
menuItem1.MenuItems.Add("Telephone");<br />
<br />
menuItem1.Click += new EventHandler(OnComputer);<br />
<br />
void OnComputer(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
MessageBox.Show("You click on computer", "Computer Click");<br />
}<br />

That looks like you've assigned it to the File item, not the Computer item.
|

The computer item is a subitem of the file menu. So how can I assign it to the computer item. How can I fix that?

It is working fine now. About if I have several menu items. There must be a way to pack them to an array rather than doing it one by one. So the way I had "Data", "Keyboard", "Telephone" was incorrect. The menu items need to have their own variable to identify them rather than single string.

Hi friends,
I have a simple problem. I tried my best but couldn't find a way to do. hope you people will know it. I defined a variable or param in xsl file by using following tags <xsl:variable> or <xsl:param> now I want to use value of this in .cs file of my project by using c#. Will any of you tell me solution of it? I will be really thankful to you people.
Greetings,
Abubakar

If on the other hand you are unhappy with a posting, please modify it instead of posting a new one in a new thread. You can do this by clicking on the modify link in the bottom right corner of a posting.
Regarding your problem, I'm not sure whether I really get what you are trying. If you want to retrieve the specific value from the XSL file at runtime, you could use the XmlDocument or XmlTextReader as the file is (or at least should be) a valid XML file.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but I need to call a method in a running program from a different program. The method I want to call is being loaded into the remote EXE via a DLL. If I try using DllImport, it does call the method, but it doesn't work correctly. The method is supposed to return its class's member information, but if I use the DllImport from C# to call the method, it doesn't return the actual remote class's members, just some garbage values. Also, the program and DLL are already compiled, were written in C++, and don't include support for .NET remoting.
For example, TestApp has a class called TestClass. This class has a bool called TestMember and a method called TestMethod that returns the value of TestMember. When I write a program and use DllImport to import TestMethod, it returns true, even when I know that the remote member is actually false. It does this with all of the methods I try to import. I'm guessing it has something to do with the fact that TestMember and TestMethod belong to an instance of an object rather than being static.
I would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction to figuring this out. Using C++ is ok too, but I'm more comfortable with C#.

Are both applications .NET applications? Doing "remote procedure calls" can be done, but differs depending on the technologies being used. If both apps are .NET apps, use System.Runtime.Remoting, using an IpcChannel (inter-process communication channel). There are a few articles on CP on how to do this.

Hi friends,
I have a simple problem. I tried my best but couldn't find a way to do. hope you people will know it. I want to define a vaiable <xsl:variable> or param <xsl:param> in xsl file then I want to access value of this in .cs file of my project by using c#. Will any of you tell me solution of it? I will be really thankful to you people.

In your xsl, you define a parameter with <xsl:param> and reference it with the $prefix.
So, suppose you wanted a MyName parameter, you would create it like this:
<xsl:param name="MyName" />
Then, you would reference it via:
<xsl:value-of select="$MyName" />
To reference this from your C#, you need to add parameters:
XsltArgumentList args = new XsltArgumentList();
args.AddParam("MyName", string.Empty, "John Doe");
These parameters are then added into the Xsl transform, then you will use:
xslt.Transform(xpathdoc, args, writer);

HI,
Thanks for so quick reply. You didn't get my problem. The code which you sent me I already used that code. it is passing values from c# to XSL by using this but not from XSL to C# which I need;
XsltArgumentList args = new XsltArgumentList();
args.AddParam("MyName", string.Empty, "John Doe");
I explain it you in more details and comprehensively; I have a variable in xsl with name 'size' and it has value 35.I just want to use this value in .cs file by using following statement;
Response.Write(size);
output should be;
35
Waiting for your reply,
Regards,
Abubakar

Read it using an XPath query then. That's the best way to get values out. BTW - you don't need to use xsl to achieve this.

HI,
It will be really nice if you give me some of examples of using param or variable in .cs file from XSL. I tried my best but couldnot find any way. please give me some practical example in form of code.
Regards,
Abubakar

Thinking about it, I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve. Why do you have a variable in the XSL file that you need to read? Are you trying to read the result of a value transformation in XML? If you provide your requirements in more depth then perhaps I can help.

I tried but couldn't find a solution. I try to send you code of XSL file. xsl file name is "test.xsl" and param is defined just like that without commas "<xsl:param name="testParam">TestValue</xsl:param>" please send me c# lines of code to get value of this param in .cs file.

Abubakar
