I have to inherit my own combobox and then

It's not good style but it works:
Change it directly in the .cs file (InitializeComponent code)
Replace in the editor "System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox" to "YoureNamespace.SpecialComboBox"!

Hello C# guru's,

I've done my research but I just couldn't find one that does the following.
I have an MDI application. In the child form there is a panel whose height is dependent on the
current client area height of the child form. The child form is set to a default size when created but its size can be adjusted afterwards and can also be maximized. If I set the currently active child window to maximized and then open another child window, the panel height of the latter is set based on the default height of the child form even though it opens maximized. How do I make the child form calculate its actual client area whether it's maximized or not?

TIA!

Hey I’m developing a windows service (with C# .net 2005) to access the outlook 2003 calendar.

I’m running the service account as a Network Service
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this.serviceProcessInstaller1.Account =
System.ServiceProcess.ServiceAccount.NetworkService;
----------------------------------------------------------------

Service is instlling properly. But when I strat the service error pope out saying unotheraized access at the point I create outlook object.

----------------------------------------------------------------
private Outlook.Application objOutlook = new Outlook.Application();
----------------------------------------------------------------

Error: An unhandled exceptoin (“System.UnathorizedAccessException”) occurred servicename.exe[2804]

Well your trying to access something and it's saying your unauthorised. Now feel free to call me crazy but it sounds like your unauthorised to access outlook from that account :P

It might be that thats not the problem but the easiest way to test is to give the service your user account and test it again. If the problem goes away then the network service doesn't have the permissions needed.

I am familier with MS Access rather than SQL
And to do that there, I choose my format in the database designe phase (Set the date field format to whatever you want). and do not need coding for this.
I think SQL Server provides same thing

Hi
Use SET DATEFORMAT

See the example below:

<br />
Example 1 : executes without any error <br />
<br />
use northwind<br />
go<br />
<br />
set dateformat dmy<br />
go<br />
<br />
select top 10 * from Orders where requireddate >= '15-08-1996'<br />
<br />
Example 2 : gives error <br />
<br />
use northwind<br />
go<br />
<br />
set dateformat mdy<br />
go<br />
<br />
select top 10 * from Orders where requireddate >= '15-08-1996'

mm represents minutes. Use MM for the month.

Why? Do you think, you have no access to the form1,
or haven't you found the Refresh() method of the form?

Save your word document as webpage, create a form and place a webbrowser control.
Whenever user clicks Help button dispaly the form with webbrowser navigating to your Help document page.

Do one thing just create a .chm file.

you have to use "windows HTML help workshop" for that.

Just search on net u will get help.

For creating .chm it will take time but it will be easier next time.

Thanks
