It works fine for me on both Vista and XP. I am using Framework 2.0.
The word "politics" describes the process so well: "Poli" in Latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "bloodsucking creatures."

damn, i just have installed
Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP3 Developer
Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 2.0
Last System Update : 1-05-08
never thought about it as VS installs Framework as well(at least V.2.0 not compact)

Cant see line like this.headerText_TXT.KeyDown +=.
Have you missed it while copying it here or in the code as well?

Hi All
Is there any difference in the following three strings. Is any one of them more preferred over the other two.
lblScore.Text = correctNums.ToString() + "/" + numberOfTurns.ToString();
lblScore.Text = String.Format("{0}/{1}", correctNums, numberOfTurns);
StringBuilder str = new StringBuilder();
str.AppendFormat("{0}/{1}", correctNums, numberOfTurns);

Read this[^] article. Might help you.

Thanx D@nish that was a great article.

The Concat method is slightly faster than the others. The Format method and your use of StringBuilder is virtually the same, as the Format method uses a StringBuilder and the AppendFormat method.
When you send the values to the Format and AppendFormat methods, they will be boxed. That means that a new object is created on the heap and the integers are stored in this object. Using the Concat method avoids the boxing.
If you want to use a StringBuilder, this is a better approach:
lblScore.Text = new StringBuilder().Append(correctNums).Append('/').Append(numberOfTurns).ToString();
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

Number 2 is the right way, number 1 is the wrong way and number 3 does something entirely different to 1 & 2 (It does not assign a variable to lblScore). If it did assign str.ToString() to lblScore then it would be mostly the same as 2, but with the worthless overhead of creating a StringBuilder. If however you were appending a greater number of strings to the output then 3 would be the better way to approach the problem.

I wouldn't say right or wrong, it's more of which is better for the given circumstance
only two letters away from being an asset

Compiler changing concatenation with + to a stringbuilder asside, there is never a good reason to concatenate strings using +. Ever.

I would disagree, its a matter of preference. I see nothing wrong with something like "Some string: " + x, depending on the circumstance it is being used in.
As Guffa points out there may be some boxing that is occurring with StringBuilder and Format which could be avoided.

I see nothing right with it, and no reason to use it over either of:
String.Format("Some string: {0}",x) or String.Concat("Some string: ",x)

You realise that using the + operator and using the String.Concat method produces identical code?

That is a COMPLETELY INVALID statement...I can't tell you how wrong that is. StringBuilder and String.Format are only useful and more performant in certain scenarios, not all. If you are joining thousands of string parts, StringBuilder will definitely be more efficient. If you are "formatting" a string, and you need localization support and the like, String.Format is your friend. However, for smaller concatenations where you know the number of parts involved, nothing beats the performance of a basic concat. Research it.

j4amieC you are write I did not write the full code in the third case, but yes the StringBuilder does assign the text to the lblScore.
Can you tell me why concatenating strings is not a good idea in this case. Does it leave string objects in memory? Or is there any other reason?

Concatenate 10,000 strings using + and time it.
Now concatenate the same 10,000 strings using a stringbuilder.
Compare the times.

Here you go:
Concatenating using + operator 10000 times: 3.50 ms.
Concatenating using StringBuilder 10000 times: 5.03 ms.
Concatenating using String.Format 10000 times: 5.97 ms.

Not at all. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using the Concat method to concatenate strings.
J4amieC wrote: If it did assign str.ToString() to lblScore then it would be mostly the same as 2, but with the worthless overhead of creating a StringBuilder.
That is exactly how the String.Format method does it. The method that you say is the "right way" also has the worthless overhead of creating a StringBuilder, so you contradict yourself...

Actually, #1 is the best way for his situation. A concatenation of up to 12 strings is much faster than either a StringBuilder or String.Format. StringBuilder incurrs overhead by keeping the strings on the heap until you call ToString(). String.Format has a variety of processing overhead that is not necessary in this case. When you know explicitly the number of string parts you need to join, and the order they will be joined in, a concat (up to 12 parts) will always be faster...significantly less overhead. Contrary to popular opinion, a single memory allocation and concat operation is involved in small concatenations. Only use an alternative method when the number of parts and/or their join order is unknown, or when you have more than 12 parts to join.

My apologies...a string concat requires 2 allocations, not 1. For a comparison of concat vs. StringBuilder, take a look at this article:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ricom/archive/2004/03/12/performance-quiz-1-of-a-series.aspx
Concat: 4 calls, 2 allocations, 94 bytes
StringBuilder: 30 calls, 5 allocations, 184 bytes

If that's all I'm doing I use the second, but with more line breaks.
I wouldn't be concerned about the relative efficiency of those particular statements; particularly when dealing with a GUI.
But that's just me.

I had written code to create excel chart sometime back. Thanks to poor documentation I had done, I cant recall significance of "-4167". Can anyone help? Here is the code block:
objClassType = Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Excel.Application");
oExcelApp = Activator.CreateInstance(objClassType);
oProcess = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("EXCEL");
oWorkBooks = oExcelApp.GetType().InvokeMember(
"Workbooks", BindingFlags.GetProperty, null, oExcelApp, null);
oArgs = new object[1];
oArgs[0] = -4167; <--- this one right here
oExcelWbk = oWorkBooks.GetType().InvokeMember(
"Add", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, oWorkBooks, oArgs);
The word "politics" describes the process so well: "Poli" in Latin meaning "many" and "tics" meaning "bloodsucking creatures."

Tut tut - a google search for 'excel 4167' only returns 191000 results! It looks like -4167 refers to the type of a worksheet object.
It definitely isn't definatley

I have tried and still trying to search it. Still no success.
