Hey there,
I have an application which lists the following menu options "File" " View" "Help" etc.
And ofcourse within each of these is a further list of options. I want to write an application which will automatically nagivate through this menu ... As an example...suppose I want to go to View->Text Size -> Normal, I can do so through my application at the click of a button.
Is anyone aware of the kind of messages I could send or provide an example of any such code you may have.
Regards,
Abhishek

I dont have the SDK but I could use Microsoft Depends to get a idea of the function being called.

Your looking for SendKeys[^]. Which, BTW, is a problematic way to control another application. Since the focus can shift from one window to another without any warning, your keystrokes could end up going to the wrong application. Also, I hope your VB app that your controlling has keyboard shortcuts define for all the menu choices...

How would I do this?
I have 3 files that have to be put in certian places on a harddrive. I want to make a program that will do this automatically.
Is there something out there that I could use already? I was thinking maybe a install wizard or something like that, but i can find one that I like.
Thanks
Chad

Can you explain a bit more? what are the files? exactly at what places? hardcoded? or depend on the specific machine configuration? Windows special folders?
We need more information in order to help you. If you have the specific folders and filenames, FileInfo.MoveTo[^] might help you.

I know how to use the System.Web.Mail class to send mail through smtp but I want to use this for error reporting for one of my programs and I don't have a public smtp server. Are there free smtp servers that I can relay this through or is there a better way to report errors to me?
Thanks,
Rob Tomson

what about your ISP's, you would probably need SMTP auth though if the ppl running your app are not on your ISP's domain. this would be a maintenance nightmare if you hade more than a few apps distributed and you changed ISP's
Im sure there *are not* public SMTP's as the internet has more than enough spam already.
what about just ftp'ing it to you from the remote site, or http tunnelling ?

thanks for the reply. what http commands would I use to send the mail? I tried quickly searching google but it was talking about ssh tunneling, is this what you're talking about?
thanks,

I've created a program to track my tasks I have to do at work. I use a listview to display the tasks. Some of my tasks require certain steps be followed before I can complete them.
I plan on adding the ability to add requirements to a task. But, here's my idea! I would like to somehow be able to have a ProgressBar that is somewhat transparent across the entire row of each task that shows the progress of that task. I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to have a 1/2 transparent progressbar display on top of each of my tasks. Is it possible? How can I do this?

Howdy,
Sorry for the basic question...moving over to C# and having trouble finding an alternate to the following...
//constructor
public foo(int, string[])
{
//blah
}
...
foo bar = new foo(1,{"1","2","3","4"});
Any help &/or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry, jumped the gun there a little bit...
The issue I am having is that C# doesn't seem to like this syntax. I could easily get around it by defining my own string[] w/ values prior to creating a new foo object. But I'm hoping to just be able to define the string[] on the fly as indicated in the bold, italicized text above...thanks!

Try this:
foo bar = new foo(1, new string[] {"1", "2", "3", "4"});

Much appreciated Robert, thanks so much!

hi all.
I just need to ask one question !
how can split the incoming string into string array by finite small string i know that split method for normal string can split the string into string array but with specific character not exceed one character like the following
--------------------------------------
<br />
using System;<br />
namespace snouto<br />
{<br />
class stringargs<br />
{<br />
static void Main(string[] args)<br />
{<br />
string string1 = "hi#thatisme#yeah";<br />
char[] splitters = {'#'};<br />
string[] separated = string1.split(splitters);<br />
}<br />
In the above code i split my string into string array using # character format but if i want to split my string by using another string like "snouto" in tha above string
<br />
string string1 = "hisnoutoThatismesnoutoYeah";<br />
how can i split the above string using snouto which repeated inside the string
Please help

AFAIK, there is no predefined method for what you want to do. You have to explicitly loop through the characters in the string and split them. Off the top of my head,
string[] Split(string text, string separator)
{
ArrayList splitStrings = new ArrayList();
int index = -1;
int prevIndex = index;
while ((index = text.IndexOf(separator, prevIndex)) != -1)
{
splitStrings.Add(text.Substring(prevIndex, index-prevIndex));
prevIndex = index + separator.Length;
}
return (string[]) splitStrings.ToArray(typeof(string));
}

Instead you can rely on more popular regular expressions.
try this...
<br />
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;<br />
<br />
string original = "hisnoutoThatismesnoutoYeah";<br />
Regex reg = new Regex("snouto");
string[] splitStrings = reg.Split(original);<br />
Using Regular Expressions is comparatively faster that any other operations directly on strings
Hope this helps!!!

Hello:
I am trying to develop a flowchart generator.
It seems to me that i have to develop first a parser for the language being diagrammed.
Do you know of any starting point to do this? since on these days it seems that we are alway reinventing the wheel.
Best Regards
Roberto.

Hi am writing a chat server and I was stress testing my server and found some errors.
Say I have an arraylist.
ArrayList sockets = new ArrayList(listOfSockets);
Now I call Socket.Select to take out the sockets that don't have data on them.
Socket.Select(sockets, null, null, 100000000);
This is where the error happens, if I pass in a ArrayList that has 65 sockets in it.
It causes a IndexOutOfRangeException to happen. I have tried using other ways of doing it and it causes different errors but it always happens when it reaches 65 sockets.
I am dumbfounded please help.

Hi ...
I have created a ListBox on a Form. I would like to write to the ListBox from other classes using a wrapper method in the Form Class.
I have a public method in the Form1 Class called WriteStatusMessage(). This method will format the string and add the date and time and in the future could write to a file.
I would like to be able to call this method from other classes. In the sample code below I an able to create an instance of the Form1 Class and then call the WriteStatusMessage() method. Stepping through the code I actaully get into the method and to the point where I do the Add() on the ListBox.Item Object.
Any idea why the message will not display on the ListBox? As you can see I have tryed the Update() and Invalidate() method, both to repaint the ListBox?
Thanks,
Chris

Try taking off the BeginUpdate and EndUpdate calls sandwiching the Add method. I had the same problem once and taking off BeginUpdate and EndUpdate solved it, although I still don't know know why/how. Maybe it's a bug in the .NET framework.
