Because you have controls on your form one of the controls will have the default focus, so the keypress event will go there (first of all). In order to handle the keypress, you need to set
this.KeyPreview = true;

Hello hello
I still have difficulties to understand the autocomplete feature of combobox and what they are used for
I've read and reread MSDN about that but I did'nt find the BASIC concept ?
Thanks a lot for who can tell me in a few words the basic purpose of those feattures

Essentially it provides a way to allow the end-user of the application a way to type less key strokes to pick a value for the combobox.

Thank you Scott
But I do not understand how !
I'm using a combobox with a DataTable datasource
I've already tryed to set the autocompleteMode to the different mode
But I don't realy see any different behaviour
But I'm not a combobox user specialist

Hi All,
I'm just testing some file recursion code at a good way into scanning all my hard drives for FileInfo[] I'm getting a DateTime exception of:
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException was unhandled
Message="Not a valid Win32 FileTime.\r\nParameter name: fileTime"
Could this be a corrupt file issue?
At the moment I'm just grabbing a DateTime on each file should I really be passing it some CultureInfo in order to make sure that the DateTime format its using is of the host machines same cultire or should I implement some Culture.Invariant on it? Can C# even do that?
Thanks for any advice.
Regards,
Jammer

Did you think of debugging your code and seeing what file is causing the exception? Or, now this may be an advanced technique, but valid parameter and handle the exception.

The problem with debugging this is that its part of a recursive file scanning routine and it happens about 175,000 files in ...
i've wrapped the line in a try{}catch{} now and handling the error but I would like to find out what file is causing this.
I'm just rerunning the code with a break point on the catch to try to find out the filename ...
Cheers,

Well, I've nailed it ...
there are a gaggle of unruly files on one of my hard drives with modified dates like:
13 July 27911, 07:18:01
very, very weird ... anyone seen dates like this before?

Then put a damn breakpoint in the catch block!!!!

Hello,
I have an application that sets a cookie (for authentication purposes) after a user logs in. When I run the application locally it sets the cookie and runs as it should. However when running on the webserver it appears to not set the cookie and cause me to go back to the login screen (to basically do it over). I tested my app in Firefox and it sets the cookie fine (both locally and on the webserver). Can anyone give any insight on this? Thanks in advance.

Hi there,
can windows service run even before the windows log on (i.e) just once the computer boot? (windows service that is built using C# 2005)
if so, can the service check a data base, update it, and gives pop ups to the user?
also, can it have an icon on the desk top so it is just like a normal application?
I really need to know a lot about windows service building and what things are possible and what are not ,
please help, even with sites ,
Thanks ,
There is always something to learn

Yes, set the startup type to Automatic.

For a service to have any UI, set the Interact with desktop option. Natually, it has to run under a specific account for that. I'm not sure if that is compatible with setting the startup type to Automatic.

I thought you wanted it to start up automatically. What do you want the icon to do?

Buy a book, or use Google.

actually the service must perform functions according to the user that is why I need an icon for it, in other words : the user must be able to choose what the services must do in the next time.
OR, It is possible to let the service open an application (have it run), isn't it?
I am willing to buy a book , can u give me names that are helpful(worthy)
Thank you

Hi,
I'm trying to write to a file which shud be .csv. I'm using streamwriter for that as
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter (Server.MapPath"~/ImportData/Files/"+_FileName),true,Encoding.Unicode);
Now the problem is, when i try to open the file in excel does not see the commas in the file and puts all data for that row in the first column. I can resolve this issue by replacing Unicode with Default, but this solve the problem only for culture english.
I should definatley go with Unicode, as i have to use this for different cultures.
Please, let me know if any ideas, as I'm stuck on this.
Thanks

Don't cross post. You asked this same thing yesterday in the General Discussion forum.

Have you even looked at the file in notepad to see if the commas are actually there?
Just because we can; does not mean we should.

Yeah, i looked in notepad......its perfect over there........As I said, when i give the encoding as default then it wrks perfect in english culture.... but it is mandatory that it shud also wrk in other cultures such as french and german.....it writes perfectly to the notepad....but when i try to open with excel it screws.....
