Is there a method in the .NET framework that I can call to get the window with the current focus. All I've been able to find on the net is this:
// Return the handle of the window that has the focus.
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern IntPtr GetFocus();
This isn't built into System.Window.Forms?

No, it is, by definition a PInvoke call to load a function out of user32.dll and call it.

Yeah, I just think it's strange that it's not built into the framework. Wonder what their reasoning was...

Hi,
Being relatively new to C#/.Net I am having problems finding a simple solution to the following scenario:
I have a table with many fields including FirstName, LastName, MemberID and EmailAddress. I need to display a checkedlistbox with all the FirstName + LastName's BUT I need to only pass the relative selected EmailAddress to another table. I don't want to show the EmailAddress in the checkedlistbox.
I can populate the listbox as well as retrieve the selections without problem but is there a way to "hide" the EmailAddress in the checkedlistbox but retrieve it when selected?
Thanks,
Glen Harvy

A listbox item has .Tag right? If so, store the e-mail address in the tag, item.Tag = "mmmm@bacon.com";
You can store pretty much anything in the tag, so when your populating the list, just put it in the tag for that item.

Thanks for that - I've used the tag for this purpose before but forgot it.
It doesn't seem possible however to ".Add.Tag" so I will need to bind the listbox to a dataset which is what I didn't want to do <sigh>.

Try this when your adding an item:
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem(stuff);
item.Tag = whatever

Hi,
I made a calculator which calculates measurements. The application asks you for example "how much is 200 centimeters in meters".
Because these calculations could have broken numbers i am forced to use doubles.
But when i type the answer, it keeps saying its wrong.
Suppose an answer is 0,0009. But when i look in the array which holds all the answers i see 0,0009000000000000012.
How can i solve this?
Thanks in advance!

"Double" stores values in base-2 representation. Like you cannot exactly represented 1/3 in decimal notation, you cannot represent 1/10 in base-2 representation. That means you always have rounding errors when using double.
Never compare two floating point numbers for equality, but instead consider two numbers to be equal if Math.Abs(value1 - value2) < 0.00000000001.
Alternatively, you might use the type "decimal" which stores numbers in base-10 representation.

Hi,
Thank you very much guys!
Didn't know there was an alternative type for double except for float.
But decimal did the trick!

I like to create (or download) a program that can let the user open several PDFs and print those on an installed printer. I don’t have to preview the PDFs.
If I have 5 documents and like to print 10 copies of those, the program should send 50 printing jobs to the printer.

How can we convert a byte array to stream or stream to array of byte? So How can we change the size of stream? Can we change the stream lenght(or size) bigger?
I thank you very much for your answers.

Stream is an abstract class, you have to use one of it's implementations.
You can create a MemoryStream from a byte array, and you can get the data from a MemoryStream as a byte array.
The size of a stream is determined from the data that it contains. You change the size of a stream by writing to it.

Hi,
I got a problem of creating a global variable. Example: I want to create this variable in a diffferent .cs file named globalize.cs apart from the main file named main.cs.
I previously used in VB.NET is able to work but now I am learning C# and it seems not working in C#.
Need Your Help, Reader
Thanks

class SomeClass {
public static int globalVariable;
}
Just make sure to make it public and static, there you have your "global variable".

Thanks. But should i renamed my variable in my main.cs to SomeClass.globalVariable instead of just globalVariable?
Is there any so called short cut like having using System; we need not to retype the whole command for print a console statement. Example
Having the using System;, this is the flow of the program:
using System;
class someclass{
public static void Main()
{
Console.WriteLine("Some txt");
}
}
whereas without having using System;
class someclass{
public static void Main()
{
System.Console.WriteLine("Some txt");
}
}
|

No, because System is a namespace and Console is a class. The using command allows you to specify which namespaces to "short circuit", but it does not do it with classes.

I think you get me wrong. I want to declare a global variable that can use anywhere in the program named main.cs but I don't want to type a long command.
For example, I have this file named variable.cs
using System;
public class someclass
{
public static int a = 0;
}
And I want to use it in this file named main.cs
using System;
public class somemainclass
{
Console.WriteLine("a = {0}", someclass.a);
}
I don't want to use this someclass.a. So is there anywhere i can short cut it the someclass.a to a variable named a to use as normal?

I didn't "get you wrong". I understood perfectly what you were trying to do, but I was trying to point out to you that the .NET framework is OO based. You cannot declare your variables outside classes and you cannot shortcut someclass.a to a.
Hint - if you could do this, it would create some awful problems with namespace resolution and method name collisions, so .NET tries to protect you from yourself.

I can give you some general directions:
Check out tutorials for ADO.NET to learn more on connecting to the access database. There are quite a few articles on the subject, so it should be pretty simple to get started.
