Hi Chris
Have you thought about passing the information from the form to the user control via a property. As Tony mentioned, trying to access in the way you are proposing will cause difficulties in reusability. using a property will make it easier to pass information back to the form (if required).

Hi TheFoz
Yes I no this would be the easiest way but would require some code to be added the form everytime you used the control.
What i was trying to do was have have enum on the main form. When the user control is droped on the form for it o read the enum and add it to a property of the user control. This way i could have multiple copies of the user control on the form and one of the properties of the user control would allow me to select from the forms enum.

I see!
Using this code in one of my custom controls I changed the colour of the form to alice blue when the user hovered their mouse on it
((Form)this.Parent).BackColor = Color.AliceBlue;
Using that you should be able to access the enum on the form

Hi
Thanks for that. That could be very usefull but it only gives you access to standard windows form properties.

That's a drill-down grid, could be quite a challenge to build. Doesn't Telerik's[^] grid provide something like this?

I just want to disable a particular item in a checkedlist box...I don't know how to do it..Please help...
|
|

Maybe the SetItemCheckState method will help you out...
|
|

|

You can loop through the items and then disable the one you want depending on your criteria

hi thatraja,
i think this question is relevant to both c# and ASP.net. anyway thanks for suggestion.
|
|
|
|

you right, but the page & forms are more relevant to ASP.NET here, so you can get from there. cheers.

I have several controls that use the same context menu. How do I know which control was clicked to bring up the context menu? I want the context menu to be able to edit only the control that was originally clicked.

If you add a handler to the ContextMenuStrip (probably the most useful to you is ContextMenuStrip.Opening) it gives you a "sender" parameter:
private void contextMenuStrip1_Opening(object sender, CancelEventArgs e)
{
ContextMenuStrip cms = sender as ContextMenuStrip;
if (cms != null)
{
MessageBox.Show(cms.SourceControl.Name);
}
}
The ContextMenuStrip.SourceControl property gives you the control which will cause the menu to be displayed.

I am facing a problem while filtering using the datatable class select function.
Following is the code.
DataTable dt;
DataRow dr ;
dt = New DataTable()
dt.Columns.Add("t", System.Type.GetType("System.String"));
dr = dt.NewRow();
dr["t"] = "12";
dt.Rows.Add(dr);
Dim search As String
'There is no problem when i write the following search string
search = "~!@#$%^&*"
dt.Select("t like '%" + search.Replace("%", "[%]").Replace("'", "''") + "%'");
but problem comes when i append a special character ( with the search
search = "~!@#$%^&*(";
dt.Select("t like '%" + search.Replace("%", "[%]").Replace("'", "''") + "%'");
Error message is
Error in Like operator: the string pattern '%~!@#$[%]^&*(%' is invalid.

Im trying to implement a car horn sound clip into my robot. When I press the right bumper of my xbox 360 controller, a car horn should sound and if I hold it down, it should continue the sound untill i let go, like a real car horn. If i loop the sound it will just beep very fast...any ideas as how to accomplish a relaistic car horn sound?
|

I think you should have to use delay in between. but it will not very useful when you press continue. bacause sound clip somthing like increasing/decreasing.
in short try to make use of different sound clip in different scenario.

This is usually achieved well in flash games. I have seen these such sounds there.
Or, you could use a really long file. say 5 minutes. Now, noone is going to honk that long.

I've actually written a program - I'll post it later, but right now, I'm having difficultly with this problem: storing a high sore list. I'd prefer a cross-platform (should be generic enough to also work on Mono) way to store the scores and some other variables in a text file, and easily read, parse into a ListView/DataGridView and write.
I don't want to use SQL Server or Access, as they are overkill for my needs.

a simple text file could do; maybe a CSV; maybe XML.
if sharing amongst multiple users is important, be careful about concurrent accesses.
|
|
|
|

I'm not too worried about sharing - it's all in the user's home directory (my excess Linux use is reflecting off Windows, wow) and I'd like a nice simple two-way wrapper. If I can read it with foreach, it shouldn't be too hard to add the items into a ListView...
BTW, CP seems to randomly barf XML errors after loading various pages, so if you see a double post, not my fault.
