There is built in help for Crystal Reports in VS.NET. I've also found Google to be invaluable, particularly Google Groups. You might have luck at the CrystalDecisions webiste too - there's a lot of stuff there.

Hi,
I found this really helpful...

Hope that helps,

What are you trying to do exactly? You also might want to try looking in Google groups. The Crystal that comes with .NET is very buggy so if somethings not working it might not be a problem with your code.

 I don't have a problem with creating the report itself (it is alot the same as Microsoft Access reports). I don't know how to edit the report at runtime.
When the user selects only a certain group of participants to display (for instance participants with the surname beginning with S...).
How do I use that SQL query to display only the selected people?

Ohhh ok so you're having a problem with you're SQL statements. The way I use crystal is that I point to a stored proc on my SQL database and pass the parameters to the stored proc. I'm guessing you're building the SQL statement in the crystal report itself. You're going to have to make a parameter and pass that to your SQL statement:
e.g.
CREATE PROCEDURE spGetUsers<br />
@Letter VARCHAR(1)<br />
<br />
AS <br />
<br />
SELECT [Columns] FROM [Users] WHERE[Surname] LIKE @Letter + '%'
Should work - You just have to pass that @Letter varchar to the statement.
Hope this helps - if you need any more help just ask. Isn't there a lecturer at Tukkies?

Hi,
I have got a picturebox that displays an image in correspondance with the node selected in a treeview. What i want to do is when a node is renamed for the file that the picturebox is pointing to to also be renamed. The problem i get is the filenotfound exception from the rename. I am pretty sure tho not 100% that this is because the image file is being displayed in the picturebox at the same time that i am trying to rename the file. I have tried makign the picturebox empty as well as trying to use image.dispose() but i cannot seem to get it to work.
Help would be VERY appreciated thanks

A PictureBox stores the image at that time and is not tied to the image. For instance, if you changed the image (added a line or something), the changes are not reflected automatically in the PictureBox. This requires change notification.
More than likely, you're not giving a fully resolvable path to the file, which is either a fully-qualified path or a relative path to the current working directory (not necessarily always the directory from which your app is running). The best thing you can do is debug your code using the excellent tools in the IDE. Debugging code is half the battle.

I have to use a legacy C DLL. Some functions in this DLL need Callback as parameters. The Callback are writen in VB.NET. When I pass the address of Callback to the DLL function non managed code, its work (I mean the DLL call may Callback). But it seems to be a stack corruption after the end of the callback call because the callback use _stdcall convention (Default and the only one supported in VB.NET and C#).

I would like to add a click event to a webform ListBox.
I have read how to do it in VB.net, but I can't make it work for a webform Listbox. (reference article on this site www.codeproject.com/vb/net/sublcassing_Lis;)tBox.asp)

I didn't add a click event but I did attach a bit of Client-side Javascript to a combo box. You should probably be able to apply the same idea to a list box but I son't know how useful it will be in your situation.
cboList.Attributes.Add("onchange", "JavaScriptFunction();")

I'd like to ensure a string I'm manipulating has not become too long to be a valid path. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
Thanks,

Most win32 c++ compilers have a _MAX_PATH constant defined - I'd search the Web/MSDN and see what this is defined as ... I would have thought VB had a function sitting over a win32 api that returns a path, the MSDN specs for that API should eventually yield that max it returns ...
ps .. I took this >> from the MSDN CreateDirectory API page (The GetCurrentDirectory function doesnt show what you're looking for, unfortunately) ..
"There is a default string size limit for paths of 248 characters. This limit is related to how the CreateDirectory function parses paths.
To extend this limit to 32,767 wide characters, call the Unicode version of the function and prepend "\\?\" to the path. For more information, see Naming a File."
so depending on what you define _MAX_PATH to be, you can just check the string length against it ..
Sorry, that probably doesnt help much

You didn't mention if your using VB6 or VB.Net.
Here is a VB.Net method:
<br />
Dim myPath As String = "C:\test" <br />
Dim myDirectory As System.IO.Directory <br />
Dim mySubDirectory As String <br />
<br />
If myDirectory.Exists(myPath) Then <br />
For Each mySubDirectory In myDirectory.GetDirectories(myPath) <br />
MsgBox(mySubDirectory) <br />
Next <br />
End If<br />
Regards

I have found the definitive answer! Unfortunately, it's not what I wanted (although it is what I expected). In summary, to quote the article found at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetdep/html/redistdeploy.asp,
"Applications and controls written for the .NET Framework require the .NET Framework to be installed on the computer where the application or control runs."
Oh, well, time to roll back to VB6! And .Net was so.... nice! I'm losing my warm and fuzzy feeling....

Is there a list of the magical contents of the .NET framework that I can copy to my disk?

You're out of luck - AFAIK the framework has to be installed using dotnetfx.exe to use a .NET application.

Sounds like your application should have been an ASP.NET web application since you can't control what configuration your clients would have.
Of course, web applications require the client to have an internet connection (or network for intranet web servers) but that's a lot more common currently than clients with the .NET framework.

Yes you can. There is a compiler that says that it will compile it too native code.
