Wow. Thanks. I updated my code. I tried it but I got an undefined for the control.

I'm not sure I understand. You got null back for the control returned?

Wouldn't MouseEnter / MouseLeave or whatever work?

If you wanted an event for every menuitem. I was hoping there was a cleaner way.

Hi,

I have not used it myself, but the way I understand MSDN on Control.HelpRequested event
you should add an event to every Control for which you want to provide help; then in
the HelpRequested event handler the sender parameter points to the Control that currently
needs to show help.

For the menu dropdown items there is no event for the helpprovider. There is for the file menu itself but it does not tell you which menu item you are currently looking at.

OK, I see the problem now: MenuItem is not a Control. However MainMenu and ContextMenu
are, so you could enumerate their menu items recursively to find the one that is currently
selected (MenuItem.Selected property). Not sure what will happen when you move the
mouse up or down, selecting another menu item.

Thank You very much. It works like a champ! Here is my final code (c++/CLI).

for each ( ToolStripMenuItem ^tmpMS in this->menuMainForm->Items )
{
  for each ( ToolStripItem ^tmpCntl in tmpMS->DropDownItems )
  {
    if (tmpCntl)
    {
      if ( tmpCntl->Selected )
        String ^tmpCntlName = tmpCntl->Name;
      OpenHelpForMenuItem(tmpCntlName);
    }
  }
}

hi.. how do i browse a word document and get the data inside to my richtextBox ?

Re: browse word document

Judah Gabriel Himango7-Jan-08 5:03

You'll either need to use the Word interop COM object (requires Word to be installed on the machine running your software), or use a 3rd party tool that parses Word documents to get the text data out or coverts it to RTF.

Use the ToShortDateString or ToLongDateString methods.

Standards are great! Everybody should have one!

I don't know what a Cla.selecteddate is, but if you're use a DateTimePicker you can set a CustomFormat.

Ohhhh... I see now. A DateTime will always contain both a date and a time.

Your "calender control" should be able to display only the parts you want to display.

I want to incorporate the speech training UI (SAPI 5.1) into an application so that users don't have to navigate to it via the control panel.

I've tried finding C# code-snippets/examples of the DisplayUI method of the IspRecognizer interface and have so far been unsuccessful (googled and CP).

Any help or pointers would be gratefully accepted.

Regards

Ok - I've figured out how to do this in VB.

Noooooooooooooooooo I hear you say - well trust me I feel the shame Sigh | :sigh:

I feel soooo dirty I'm going to have to have a long shower to clean myself Laugh | :laugh:

Note the Microsoft.Speech.Object Library reference needs to be added to the project first.

<br />
Imports SpeechLib<br />
Imports Speech<br />
<br />
Public WithEvents RC As SpSharedRecoContext<br />
Public myGrammar As ISpeechRecoGrammar<br />
<br />
RC = New SpSharedRecoContext<br />
<br />
myGrammar = RC.CreateGrammar<br />
myGrammar.DictationSetState(SpeechRuleState.SGDSActive)<br />
<br />
Dim theRecognizer As ISpeechRecognizer<br />
theRecognizer = RC.Recognizer<br />
<br />
theRecognizer.DisplayUI(Me.Handle.ToInt64, "Speech Training", SpeechStringConstants.SpeechUserTraining, vbNullString)<br />

Apologies for posting this ~~filth~~ VB code on the C# forum
