Try making a bitmap that is all one colour and setting it as the background image for your panel.
Then add the following code to the form_Load event
Bitmap bitmap = (Bitmap)pnlBackground.BackgroundImage;
bitmap.MakeTransparent(bitmap.GetPixel(1, 1));
TransparencyKey = BackColor;
You may also need to start the form minimized and then do WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal; I don't know why but sometimes this is the case.

Hello,
can anyone show me a sample how to establish a GPRS connection in c# .net?
Or tell me where to look.

Hi,
How to start and stop windows services using c# asp.net.
Thanks

You can use the System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController class, from the System.ServiceProcess.dll assembly.
Bear in mind that you generally need administrative privileges to stop or start a service, which your ASP.NET code will not normally have. You'll typically have to change the user that the code runs under. On Windows 2000 or Windows XP, you configure this with the <processModel> element in the Machine.config file, and it affects all ASP.NET applications on the server; on Windows Server 2003 you configure it through the Internet Information Services administration console, all applications in the same application pool share the same worker process.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

I am reading a file into a listBox as follows:
***********************************
StreamReader SR;
FileStream FS = File.Open("c:\\wsIder\\info.ini", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
SR = new StreamReader(FS);
string line;
while((line = SR.ReadLine()) != null)
{
viewS.Items.Add(line);
}
SR.Close();
******************************
the file contains section separated with bracket like this
[SEC1]
...some text
[SEC2]
...some text
etc
When I display the file in the listbox, I would like to use colored text for the sections. [SEC1]=red, {sec2]=green..etc
Any idea how to do this?
|
|
|
|
|
With the standard listbox control, you cannot do that. You need a owner drawn listbox. See this article: this is probably what you need:
http://www.codeproject.com/cs/combobox/colorlistbox.asp[^]
Once you have implemented the listbox as described in the article, you just have to do some parsing of the text you read from the file, like if the line starts with a '[' then change that item's color to red... etc etc

Hi
i am working in c# with infragistics
In c# windows applicaion, I will be passing data from textbox..such that
for example:i ahev 3 texboxes labeled
name:
age:
salary:....
Now name is the parent and age and salary r the child..so if i pass data in
the appropriate textbox..It should be added in the [B]ultrawintree..[/B]such that
name(parent) should show up on the root node of the tree. and age and
salary(child) should show up under the root node.
as I am new to infragistics , I am learning. Please help me with
coding..and please explain me ...

What is infragistics, a class library ? You need to ask them.

I have 2 classes and I want when the second class raises an event, the first class can catch and do something.
I have heard about using delegate to do this, but I dont know how to do?

I am having an issue with ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings in a multi-threaded winforms application. I have an error thrown by the .net framework Config class when both the main thread and worker thread access the AppSettings namevalue collection. Is this a threadsafe issue? I have tried using lock for the AppSettings collection, but this throws the same error. Below is the code to reproduce the error:
private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
MethodInvoker myInvoker = new MethodInvoker(WorkerThreadFunction);
myInvoker.BeginInvoke(new AsyncCallback(WorkerThreadAsyncCallBack), myInvoker);
NameValueCollection nvc = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings;
}
private void WorkerThreadFunction()
{
string settingVal = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["Setting1"];
}
The following error results:
"Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
Stack Trace:
at System.Configuration.ConfigurationRecord.Evaluate(String configKey)
at System.Configuration.ConfigurationRecord.ResolveConfig(String configKey)
at System.Configuration.ConfigurationRecord.GetConfig(String configKey)
at System.Configuration.DefaultConfigurationSystem.System.Configuration.IConfigurationSystem.GetConfig(String configKey)
at System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.GetConfig(String sectionName)
at System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.get_AppSettings()
Can anyone shed some light on this issue?
Thanks in advance...

I want to define a Row as an object:
if my database is:
[Text][Text][OLE OBJECT]
i want to create an row object in my c#application with that structure.
Insert value inside the put in some way in the original Database.
Is it possible with ADO.NET?
|
|
|
|
|
You could write a bunch of code to do that, but ADO.NET does not work that way by itself. It's designed to be disconnected, so you'd need to write all the code to keep connecting and updating values when you set them.

so are you telling me is it not possible?
Another thing:
If i've to add some Field into a table with the INSERT query, but i have to leave empty someother what is the correct query:
INSER into table mytab ([Name], [Surname], [EYESCOLOR], [IMAGE]) Value ('Mike', 'Tyson', 'Null', 'Null')
or
INSER into table mytab ([Name], [Surname], [EYESCOLOR], [IMAGE]) Value ('Mike', 'Tyson', '', Null)
INSER into table mytab ([Name], [Surname], [EYESCOLOR], [IMAGE]) Value ('Mike', 'Tyson', 'NULL', NULL)

Not without writing the code, no.
Neither. It's DBNull.Value, I believe.

Like the error message says...
tempStream = new MemoryStream(
imageBytes, oleOffset, imageBytes.Length - oleOffset);
I'd say this is wrong. Certainly somewhere you're using values that don't index into the data as they should.

there are columns called FrontImageOffset, FrontImageSize that tells me where an image's byte stream ends and a new image begins
so, I am using a sql command like below to figure out what I am supposed to looking for..
sql = "select FrontImageOffset, FrontImageSize from CDData where TransactionId=" + TransactionId;
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, cn))
|
|
|
|

Well, it's obvious that somewhere you are trying to pass an array index that is outside the bounds of the array. Maybe it's not this line, I didn't look through your code closely.

Here is the revised question.
I have two table: data and image talbe.
Data table
Transactionid documenttype frontimage offset frontimage size
1934318415 CHECK 1 11264
1934318415 COUP 18433 27648
1934318415 COUP 57345 39936
The front/rear offset tell you where the image data in image table begins and the front/rear length tell you how many bytes from the offset to extract to get the image out of the .
Image table..
Image table
Transaction ID, Image
1934318415 <binary>
Below id the logic that I am going to use to retrive the images. Can you help me out writing a code?
//
// Write the logic to retrieve the byte array from the Image table
// … … … …
MemoryStream ImageStream = new MemoryStream (Byte_Array_From_Image_Table);
// You allocate a buffer to hold the image in
Byte[] bytes = new Byte[FrontImageSize + RearImageSize];
int offset = Convert.ToInt32(FrontImageOffset) - 1;
// Move the pointer in your stream to offset position and then read
ImageStream.Seek(offset, SeekOrigin.Begin);
ImageStream.Read(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
// Create a image object from that buffer
Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(new MemoryStream(bytes));
// retrive image

Jusah has told me to use double buffering.
But i don't make draw inside the panel i just move it and when i move it flicker.
So how can use double buffer on this?
|
|
|
|
|
By turning on double buffering.
this.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, true);
