No, c as Label will return null if c is not a Label.

Setup Deployment User Interface Problem

ekynox19-Jul-06 21:18

G'day guys,

Today I have been playing with the option of having to insert additional user interface dialogs in the setup msi project in visual studio. One my goals in this setup msi project is to allow the user to select the option of whether they want to read the user guide or install the software. I have implemented this option as a two radiobutton form under the User Interface Option.

The problem I am experiencing is that, when the user selects the option of simply viewing the user guide, the setup msi starts to install the software once the software is half through the installation it then fires up the user guide then continues to complete the installation.

What do I need to do in order to prevent the setup msi from installing the software when the user selects the option of viewing the user guide document.

I have used the following article as a reference to get me started in customizing the user interface dialog:
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/Easy_Custom_Setup.asp

Any pointers will be most appreciated.

thanks

How can i get the current record..... [modified]

hi ,
I used a listbox for going to the next or previous record .For the savebutton event , I wrote this :

private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
 {<br />
   ...<br />
   PopulateListBox1();<br />
 }

and For the PopulateListBox1() Function :

private void PopulateListBox1()<br />
{<br />
...<br />
if (ListBox1.Items.Count > 0)<br />
  {<br />
      ListBox1.SetSelected(ListBox1.Items.Count - 1, true);<br />
  }<br />
...<br />
}<br />

thus , the last record is selected .If I want to select the current record when I press the savebutton , How can I do it ?
thanx

You can find the value or text in the list first and then made that selected.

Sorry for the confusion, actually i got confused with dropdwon list control.
Cant you do something like this.

string str = "sometext";<br />
			for(int i=0;i<=listBox1.Items.Count; i++)<br />
			{<br />
				if(listBox1.Items[i].Equals(str))<br />
				{<br />
					listBox1.SetSelected(i,true);<br />
				}<br />
<br />
			}

No sometext is the text what you need to be set as selected in the listbox.

the Items'ListBox1 (e.g. field [name of company])are the same that with the selection of them , I can go to any record of the Table(next or before record ).

Hi,
What i am trying to say is suppose you are having 3 items in your listbox i.e "abc", "mno" and "xyz". And you want to make "mno" as your selected item then what you need to do is put "mno" in place of "sometext". And you are done. Smile | :)

Generate a list with windows accounts

Goerlandt19-Jul-06 20:06

19-Jul-06 20:06

Hello,

in a program i'm writing I need to get a list with the accounts on my computer. (This must be shown in a combobox, but that's a detail). If I select an account I should need to convert them into a WindowsIdentity object. With that object, I then check file access rights...

Kind regards,
Frederik

What exactly is your problem, getting the accounts or converting them to WindowsIdentity objects?

Formula 1 - Short for "F1 Racing" - named after the standard "help" key in Windows, it's a sport where participants desperately search through software help files trying to find actual documentation. It's tedious and somewhat cruel, most matches ending in a draw as no participant is able to find anything helpful. - Shog⁹

Actually both, for now i don't know how to get the users so in mean while i just tested with filling in the username in a textbox. Then i tried to get a windowsIdentity object from that but it failed. The only thing i can do is get the SID from the username.

I want to have a WindowsIdentity object to use in this class: www.codeproject.com/useritems/UserFileAccessRights.asp

So if you could tell me how to get from sid to windowsIdentity or to get a list with users and windowsIdentity objects, it's the same...

Greetz,
Frederik

There is probably something you could use in System.DirectoryServices.dll. Regarding the second issue I'm sorry but I don't have time at the moment to even scan the article, but hopefully the DirectoryServices namespace might help you a bit.

You might want to look at this article, A Complete Read Only ComboBox[^]

Or search this site for read only comboboxes. This might help you and you won't have to worry about trapping mouse events.

Hope this helps some,

Paul
