    - Host Controls in Windows Forms DataGridView Cells Just wanted to mention that the code for How to: Host Controls in Windows Forms DataGridView Cells is up to date and includes a line that is missing from the above code. The InitializeEditingControl implementation should be: public override void InitializeEditingControl( int rowIndex, object initialFormattedValue, DataGridViewCellStyle dataGridViewCellStyle) { // Set the value of the editing control to the current cell value. base .InitializeEditingControl(rowIndex, initialFormattedValue, dataGridViewCellStyle); CalendarEditingControl ctl = DataGridView.EditingControl as CalendarEditingControl; ctl.Value = (DateTime) this .Value; } The last line ensures that the hosted DateTimePicker gets the current cell value when the cell enters edit mode.

    - Simple Question connecting two input fields... Hi, glcjr Since you wanna textBox2 to follow textbox1 (actually they are two different instance added to the form), you must do something to make textBox2 response to the UI. (So put the code in the delegate (you called "function") which assigned to a specific event) If you have more doubt later, please feel free to let me know.

    - Can someone from Microsoft please give us an insight on this DataGridView InvalidOperationException? I've seen this in several threads. The DataGridView throws quite randomly an InvalidOperationException with a message saying: "this operation could not be performed while an auto-filled column is being resized" I sure don't understand. I don't have any column with an autosizemode and yet I get this. I'm binding the DataGridView to a custom collection, I do have two link columns that I watch for CellContentClick in which I raise an event to a parent form that toggles another Mdi child form. The error shows up just when I try to activate another Mdi child. Can you please give us a clear explanation on what DataGridView properties combination leads to this exception because obviously the DataGridView itself doesn't keep us in ANY WAY from making a mess...

    - DataGridView DataTable Foreign Key replacements I wish to replace my foreign key values in the datagridview with actual name values. I am using this code: Windows Form: Code Block _OnlineDataSource = SessionManager .Instance.GetAllSessions(); OnlineGridView.AutoGenerateColumns = false ; OnlineGridView.DataSource = _OnlineDataSource; OnlineGridView.DataMember = "Session" ; DataGridViewColumn gridViewColumn = new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn (); gridViewColumn.DataPropertyName = "SessionID" ; gridViewColumn.HeaderText = "Session ID" ; gridViewColumn.Width = 200; OnlineGridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn); DataGridViewColumn gridViewColumn = new DataGridViewTextBoxColumn (); gridViewColumn.DataPropertyName = "ProjectName" ; gridViewColumn.HeaderText = "Project Name" ; gridViewColumn.Width = 200; OnlineGridView.Columns.Add(gridViewColumn); Business Class (GetAllSession function): Code Block SQLManager.SQLQuery = "SELECT Session.SessionID, Session.SessionTypeID, Session.ProjectID, " + "Session.Date, Session.Agenda, Session.LastModifiedDate, Session.ConcurrencyCheck " + "FROM Session;" ; ; sessionDataSet.Tables.Add(SQLManager.ReadData( "Session" )); //GetAllProjects provides the ProjectID, ProjectName etc. sessionDataSet.Tables.Add( ProjectManager .Instance.GetAllProjects().Copy()); DataRelation SessionProjectRelation = new DataRelation ( "SessionProjectRelation" , sessionDataSet.Tables[ "Session" ].Columns[ "ProjectID" ], sessionDataSet.Tables[ "Project" ].Columns[ "ProjectID" ], true ); sessionDataSet.Relations.Add(SessionProjectRelation); The ProjectName column stays empty Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars??

    - Treeview nodes enable & disable In the winforms api there is no member within the treeview/treenode to enable/disable a particular treenode. In .NET framework version 2.0 you can go for a owner drawn TreeNode(setting DrawMode ), & paint it accordingly to be shown as enabled\disabled. Other way would be, you creating a new sublcass of the TreeNode having a Enabled property. Set its forecolor to System.Drawing. SystemColors .GrayText when disabled & to its original forecolr when enabled. some other points that you need to consider is, enabling/disabling checkbox when your treeview's Checkboxes property is set true. changing enabled state of child treenodes etc...

    - UITypeEditor and Factory Creation Hello All, Please help me solve this problem. I want to create an editor that will handle the following situation. I have an abstract class Marker, and many different implements that will not be exposed to the user. The markers are created through a factory system, MarkerFactory, and I have a collection of the markers in a Control that I will to create the editor for. public class Marker { protected Marker(...){} } internal class AMarker : Marker { } internal class BMarker : Marker { } public class MarkerFactory { public Marker Create(...) {return newMarker;} } public class MarkerControl : Control { [MarkerDesigner] [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content )] public IList<Marker> Markers { get{ return markerList;} } } Any guide/hint as to how I could create such an UITypeEditor, that will work with the factory system.

    - Databinding of a Textbox Hi, First I will check my understanding with you, if there is any misunderstanding; feel free to let me know. You want to make your datagridview and textbox to the same datasourse ,but they do not synchronization. So you can use two bindingcontext. If you have two BindingManagerBase objects (from two different BindingContext objects), you can set the Position properties of each BindingManagerBase to different values. This causes each set of data-bound controls to display different values from the same data source. For more information, please check following article. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.bindingcontext.bindingcontext(VS.80).aspx And bindingcontext is count from 0 to n-1, you can do some change in your code. If you have any further questions, feel free to let me know. Best Regards Gavin Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars?? Windows Forms

    - How do you create an MDIList using the menuStrip? Yep, there is a property on MenuStrip public ToolStripMenuItem MdiWindowListItem { get ; set ; } To create an MDIWindowList set the MenuStrip's MDIWindowListItem property to the ToolStripMenuItem which you want as the parent of the list. This is typically the "Window" ToolStripMenuItem. If that's set, we'll add an entry for each mdi child in that list. If you want to further customize what we have there, you can check for the bool IsMdiWindowListEntry on ToolStripMenuItem. Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars?? Windows Forms

    - Localization using .resx or Database I have just finished the development of a free tool that I call ResEx , composite, translation friendly resource editor for .NET. It is a free tool and I intend to keep it free, containing all current features. A small charge may be applied for some features I may introduce later, just to help me keep supporting and enhancing the project. I encourage you to download ResEx and post any suggestions to the discussions page you can find under Help menu of the application. Info and download Here is a list of features provided by ResEx: 14 Translate values side by side (just like the old time classic VB6 resource editor) Lock specific strings so that translator does not translate them Ensure correct translation of strings with placeholders {0} {1} ... View resource strings in tree form Translate resources without Visual Studio IDE Search inside resource files while translating Regards Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars??

    - MDI Client should manually register in menu without beeing instantiated thank you for your reply. But this was not the problem for me. I have am Main Menu and i want to show in this main menu all different available childs. For example i have a customer childform and an invoice childform. I want that this two childforms have the ability to register in this main menu, without beeing intantiated. In a Timeline like: - the MainForm was Initialized. - now all the ChildForms were researched and the Menuinformations registered in some global data construct (A). - now a special ChildForm will be intantiated and showed which contains some special Menue with all the available ChildForms. (Data from the "some global data construct (A)". There should be some properties in the childform which can be set during design time including "Name in the Menu", "Name of the childform" and some others.

    - updating window in multithreaded app okay im making a mesh viewer for my engine in c#. Now my engine runs in a window, parented to a window in my c# application. My engine runs in its own thread started by my c# application. When i've finished rendering i tell opengl to swap buffers, which would normally display the contents to window, however in my c# appliation it does not update the window. How ever, if i put a call to my engine's render function in the windows paint method, it will be displayed, but only when i resize the window. Any ideas how to get the window updated each frame in my seperate engine thread edit: okay i made some progress, i now open a thread which invalidates the window then sleeps for 20ms. This seems to work nicely. Is it the best way to go about it Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars?? Windows Forms

    - Determining when a bound business objects, or any of its children, have changed I have one main business object in an application, which is a container for various other business objects, themselves container other business objects. It is bound throughout various aspects of the user interface using a BindingSource and its Current property. The object can then be "processed" so to speak, any number of times. I would like to be able to tell if the object has changed in between successive processes. I have looked at these various options: 1. Since all my business objects implement INotifyPropertyChanged, I added a dirty flag in each object that gets set when a property changes. The problem is I have no way for this to be reflected to the parent object, and eventually my main object. 2. Event handlers for BindingSource::CurrentItemChanged. However this only detects changes based on the CurrentChanged event or when properties of the CurrentItem change, so it won't detect changes to child objects. 3. CurrencyManager::ItemChanged event. Get the CurrencyManager via the BindingContext for my BindingSource and attach handlers for the ItemChanged event. Again it seems to only detect changes to the parent object and not children.

    - how to trigger BindingCompleteState.DataError Thanks for the reply! However, this reads for me somehow like "... occurs when there is Christmas in July". How can I set up a binding to a datasource (object datasource, if possible by any means) so that setting the property in the model works, but a validation error is reported I mean - Parse can fail only with an exception, the same holds for a TypeConverter, and if I set Cancel=true in the Validating event BindingComplete isn't even called. Let's have for example a Person object with a property "Age" of type int. How could I bind a text box to Person.Age so that I get BindingCompleteState.DataError whenever I enter a negative integer into the text box There is no problem pushing a negative integer into the Age property, but I don't see where I could implement a validation so that a DataError would be reported.

    - Coloring TabControl. nahguam wrote: TabControl inherits from Control so the properties BackColor and ForeColor *are* present. They have just been hidden from the VS designer. If you manually assign them (don't believe what intellisense tells you! :) ) It will compile. Unfortunately, modifying them seems to have no effect on the painting of the control. I'm not sure how you can overcome this problem directly. I would design my own UserControl to mimic the TabControl that you *can* choose the colours for. Thank you very much. I am wondering if you've done it yourselves, though, I just did after I read your post and this is what happened: it did compile all right but when I looked back at the code in the constructor the statement tabControl1.BackColor = was gone. Alas. A catch22. Tag: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars?? Windows Forms

    - BindingNavigator disappears from Container UserControl at Design Time Hi, I have made a Container UserControl (with "ParentControlDesigner" attribute "trick") with a BindingNavigator inside it (when the UserControl is dropped over a form, the BindingNavigator appears semi-transparent). When I put that usercontrol on a form and drop some controls inside it, it shows properly. After the first run, the BindingNavigator control disappears from the UserControl at Design Time. Only the dropped controls are shown. The BindingNavigator reappears if I close de form designer e reopen it.

Hello,

Fairly new at Windows Forms...

I can make forms that contain controls that will fill the form no matter what size it is.

Now I need to know how I can create a form that has a predefined window size, but allows the user to scroll down to enter values in the underlying controls.

Can anyone guide me through this

Re: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars??

AustinW04

Form and UserControls both have a property called AutoScroll. set it to True and scrollbars will appear whenever controls go out of the bounds of the form or usercontrol. I believe panels and multiple other controls inherit autoscroll as well

Re: Windows Forms General Creating a form with Scroll Bars??

Gavin Jin - MSFT

H,as Ausinw said ,you can lay a panel in the form,set AutoScroll property =true,then add other controls in the panel.

If you have any further questions,feel free to let me know.

Best Regards

Gavin
