What you could do is check the documentation and watch for some OpenFileDialog Properties; I bet some of them even have "Directory" in their name.

You are using OpenFileDialog and having some trouble with it, hence read its documentation. It is all in there, Google if you don't know where to find it, then read the page and learn.

Yeah, you confused me there. If you are not using OpenFileDialog, then read up on the documentation of the code you are using or contact its provider. Chances are they intended to mimick OpenFileDialog though.
When a relative path (or just a file name) is specified, .NET (and Windows) will rely on the "Current Directory" which by default starts out to be the folder holding your EXE file; however there are many ways to change it on the go (and even at app start), so it is not a recommended way of doing things.
Better set things explicitly; also have a look at the "special folders", see Environment.GetFolderPath()
with SpecialFolder.ApplicationData and CommonApplicationData (you should use a folder hierarchy in there, based on your company name and/or product name).

Then something is wrong with your path. Did you confuse forward and backward slashes? are you referring to a case-sensitive file system (as in UNIX/Linux)? Did you forget a slash between path and name? Did you make a mistake in escaping a backslash?
Don't go the CD way if you don't have to, fix the real problem instead.

Hi, I need to change the BIOS configuration from c#, to enable or disable a Network Adapter.
Thanks
|

I have seen lots of articles/blogs on reading BIOS settings. I'm not sure that writing them is possible, could be, but I'm not sure.
In any event, would that be the right place for Network Adapter configuration?

Thanks, but I need to write the BIOS to enable LAN.

After your first post, I did a little googling, and found this article[^]. It seems that you can treat the CMOS like ports 70 and 71, I assume one for reading and one for writing, though I could well be wrong on that.
Hope that it at least gives you some clues on how to proceed.

I don't know if this will help you, but take a look at this[^]. Click the first link to download the code.
It's got to be better than messing with the BIOS, one slip and you've got a doorstop.

Thanks, but this code works if the network is enabled in the BIOS and doesn't work on Windows Vista. I need on Vista and XP.

Is there a way for a custom control on a form to tell if it's being called in design mode.
I tried using the DesignMode member in the constructor, but if the control is on a form in the designer DesignMode has a value of false.

TopLevelControl.DesignMode?

TopLevelControl doesn't have a DesignMode property. 
Google's turned up a few fugly hacks, but there doesn't seem to be any supported way to check this from within the constructor itself.

Sorry, I didn't realize DesignMode is protected, not public.

I found that after posting, it pukes if you're using something other than visual studio (eg sharpdevelop), and while I us MSVS and this is an internal app, I dislike that sort of thing on general principles.

Ok. How about checking EntryAssembly == YourApp?

Wouldn't that cause it to fail if I renamed the app/used the control for a second app in the future?

You could test against Application.ExecutablePath.
This is getting complicated = would need some testing

no, this is getting complicated = add comment about MS stupidity and move code out of constructor.

I found a solution not exactly what i was looking for, but it did help me someway.
My next question is How do I create a dynamic copy of datagridView only those row I am interested in. For example, I have a dataGridView it has 15 rows they are all not the same. So, I want to get only
dataGridView1.rows[i].cells[0].value are same.Means collects only those rows first cells has "x".
thanks again.
