Hi!
Are your threads executing the same piece of code or are you using different threads for different tasks?
Anyway, if you attach VS to the service process and have a breakpoint at the appropriate position, it should work. In addition, you can make breakpoints conditional, so perhaps you can tell VS to break only for a given ThreadID...
Regards,
mav

I need a function that launches a text file in the users default text editor. It would be easy enough to launch notepad, but notepad is horrid. How to I grab the executable that is used for the .txt extension. I assume this is a registry thing, and I have avoided the registry in the past.
Thanks.

You use Process.Start and pass it the path to your txt file. It's probably going to open notepad.

Hi, if you pass a .txt file as the command to Process.Start() it will be opened by
whatever app is associated to the .txt extension (which could be Notepad of course).

Both of you THANKS! and DUH on me.
Many users will have notepad, but I know the particular user I am dealing with uses textpad. I wanted it to just call whatever is associated.
Thanks again.

I'm so new to AD it's not even funny What I'm trying to do is export all the users and there information to my application and then use that information to create accounts in another app. First question, is the directory in XP the same as Server? I ask this because if I'm righting this app in XP can I test it there (again so new to AD)? Next, I have checked for some examples of how to do this but just don't understand the LDAP connection at all. Could anyone lead me to some very VERY simple examples that would work with XP? Even some books that you would recommend is good too. Thanks so much!

I never worked with AD before about 2 weeks ago, and got thrown into a somewhat similar task. It is actually very easy to work with once you get the concepts down. Let me find the links to the resources I used. They were very simple, and good for a self starter, as they had some complex problems in there that can be picked up quickly. I'll modify this post once I find them

Oh thank you so much man! I'll wait

I am having a hard time finding the articles. I'm still looking, but here is a couple simple code snippets. Maybe they will give you somewhere to get started.
This code will get a Full name for a user from ADS.
public static string getFullName(string sUserAndDomain)
{
string u = sUserAndDomain.Replace('\\', '/');
try
{
DirectoryEntry e = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT://" + u);
return (string)e.Properties["FullName"].Value;
}
catch (Exception)
{
return null;
}
}
But to get that you need the User & Domain name of the logged in user. Below is the code
public static string getCurrentUsernameAndDomain()
{
WindowsIdentity user = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
return user.Name;
}
I normally don't like giving out code like that, and I'm sure some people frown upon it. But, it's pretty simple and maybe that will get you headed in the right direction. If I can find those articles I'll post here. Hope that gets you started!

I would like my form not to be "prone" for such shortcuts like win+d or win+m or any other minimize action.
When all other programs are minimized I would like my form stay visible on the desktop.
How can I do it? I've tried on other forums but noone could help me :-/

There's an onWindowStateChanged event, which fires after the window has been minimized / restored / maximized. If it gets minimized you can just restore it again imediatly.
Although your window may minimize them maximize straight away, rather than just staying where it is. Im not sure, you should check it out.
Wait... did i just imagine this event... i can't seem to find it... oh well, the location changed event catches minimizing too, use that 
Oh, and your english is just fine.

Thanks indeed.
I'm going to try this.
But it can be visible when form is "returning" from minimize state. But this may be the only way to solve this problem...
|
|

Infact, i've just remembered a much more reliable way of stopping your window from minimizing / maximizing / whatever. You can override the message in WndProc:
protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
{
switch(m.Msg) {
case 0x112:
if(m.WParam == (IntPtr)0xF032 || m.WParam == (IntPtr)0xF020)
m.WParam = (IntPtr)0xF122;
break;
}
base.WndProc(ref m);
}
That should disable any such resizing of your form, whether it be by clicking, shortcuts, or magical powers, of course if you want to maxmimize the form, just take out the first part of the IF statement.

That's it!
Thanks
//edit:
that code doesn't work with win+d. When I press win+m all windows are minimizing and my form is still on the desktop. But when I press win+d all windows hide. But when I click any window on the taskbar (eg. IE, mozilla or any) my form is visible again.
Any idea?
Maybe I should catch event of pressing win+d and restore my form again...?
//edit2:
Option in the taskbar context menu "Show Desktop" affects my form too. It's the same as pressing win + d :/

Same issue here. I'm trying to figure out how to prevent Win+D or "Show Desktop" from working on a specific form. In other words, I need a form that is unhidable.
|
|
|
|

Found it! This will disable minimization and "hiding" for a form by attaching it to the desktop (or progman, technically). Here's the code in C# (should be easy to adapt)
<br />
[DllImport("User32", SetLastError = true)]<br />
static extern IntPtr FindWindow(string lpClassName, string lpWindowName);<br />
<br />
[DllImport("User32", SetLastError = true)]<br />
private static extern bool GetLastInputInfo(ref LASTINPUTINFO plii);<br />
<br />
public static void AttachFormToDesktop(Form frmToAttach)<br />
{<br />
IntPtr desktopHandle = FindWindow("Progman", null);<br />
IntPtr result = SetParent(frmToAttach.Handle, desktopHandle);<br />
}<br />
One problem I've encountered so far, though, is that I can no longer set the TransparencyKey property on a form that's been attached to the desktop.
Hope this helps someone!

If you have set up an association with a particular file type for your application, Windows will pass the file name to it as a command line argument when a file is selected.
In the static void main(string[] args) method for your application, the file name can be referenced using args[0].
If you need to set up the file association programmatically, there is an article here on CodeProject[^] that explains how to do it.

Outlook.Application oApp = new Outlook.Application();
// Get the NameSpace information.
Outlook.NameSpace oNS = oApp.GetNamespace("mapi");
// Log on by using a dialog box to choose the profile.
oNS.Logon(System.Reflection.Missing.Value, System.Reflection.Missing.Value, true, true);
// Get the default Contacts folder.
Outlook.MAPIFolder oContacts = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderContacts);
// Get the Items collection from the folder.
Outlook.Items oItems = (Outlook.Items)oContacts.Items;
// Get the first contact item in the Items collection.
//Outlook.ContactItem oCt = (Outlook.ContactItem)oItems.GetLast();
Outlook.MAPIFolder foldercontacts = oNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderContacts);
Outlook.Items searchFolder = foldercontacts.Items;
int counter = 0;
foreach (Outlook.ContactItem foundContact in searchFolder)
{
counter = counter + 1;
//foundContact.FullName.ToString();
}
MessageBox.Show("You have" + counter + "contacts" );

Maybe I don't understand what you mean. From what I think you are trying to say, can't you just do a listBox.Items.add(youritem); ?

It's not a task is for my knowledge.
I want to place random image from the project resource to my picturebox.that's it 
|
|
|
|
|
Create an array, and put the images from the project resource in it.
Image[] images = new Image[5]; Then create an object of type System.Random:
Random ran = new Random();
^ These two must be defined outside a method.
Then do the following in your button event handler:
images[0] = Properties.Resources.Image1;
images[1] = Properties.Resources.Image2;
images[2] = Properties.Resources.Image3;
images[3] = Properties.Resources.Image4;
images[4] = Properties.Resources.Image5;
int pic = ran.Next(5);
pictureBox1.Image = images[pic];
And that should do the trick.
Edit: Perhaps it would be better to fill up the array in the form's constructor (usually public Form1()):
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
images[0] = Properties.Resources.Image1;
images[1] = Properties.Resources.Image2;
}
