View 3 RepliesI have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?

View 4 RepliesI have two forms: Main and Options.Main can be moved around the screen (like a normal window).When the user clicks a button, the Options form opens up and the Main form HIDES.How do I set the Options form to open in the exact place that the Main form was last on the screen (to give it the effect the MAIN form never went into hidding)I was thinking to set Option form's StartPosition to Main's current position, but I don't know the syntax for that or if it's even something you can do.

i have a for loop "for each val in values" I want to within this loop some how check positions ahead of the current position for a condition. I am unsure how i can do this however apart from having an inner for loop to loop from the current position. If that is the case I am not sure how i can get the current position.I have attempted this with this code below, the inner for loop.

My program writes text to a multiline textbox. After the input is finished, the cursor is at the end of the text. I want the program to position the cursor at the start of the text so that I can see it.
MSDN suggests:-
tbPositionCursor.Select(0, 0)
I believe the cursor is now repositioned, but I cannot see the start of the text. How do I scroll back automatically, refresh or whatever so that I can see the start of the text?

View 4 RepliesI have created a maskedtextbox to do a simmple validation >L99999. My problem is when the user clicks on the empty box the cursor stays where they clicked it, not at the beginning of the box as it would with a normal textbox. I have found some suggestions but these all seem to affect the way the cursor moves within the box rather than just changing the start position. As far as the end user is concerned the box should behave just as any other textbox but with validation.

I have looking for a tutorial or class that demonstrates more than a trivial example of saving a windows position on closing. The ones I have found don't seem to work on all systems because of:
1. Multiple monitors. (and resolution between those monitors)
2. Toolbar size and position (toolbar is only on the primary monitor, well sometimes)
3. Sometimes the programs dont open on the right monitor they were closed on.
Is there an extensive class or tutorial on all the stuff a programmer needs to get right to have a window size and position persisted between executions?
I have done research on how to manually create sorting in a grid-view and none of it is thorough enough for me to follow. I need more of a step by step solution, like what event should my sorting code go in, how would i enable the headers to allow sorting. normally, i just have .net do this but for some reason this time it doesn't allow it, maybe because i am not using a datasource.that's my code that creates a datable and then binds to the gridview.

View 2 RepliesI have my application set up with ClickOnce. It has been successfully published to my web site. I don't have updates performed automatically but on demand. I have a button that the user can click if they want to check if an update is available and install the update if it is. Here's the
[Code]...
After clicking the button a message box appears and says, "Update is available for download" as you would expect but after clicking the ok on the message box my application goes into a not responding state and I have to close it with the task manager. The application builds successfully and I have a reference for System.Deployment added to the project. Everything in my application works fine as long as I don't try to do an update. Any suggestions on what I should check or do? It should actually say "no updates are available for download" since the version of the program that is being used is the most current version.
If I turn off automatic updating of a binding data source by setting DataSourceUpdateMode = Never and then use a button to update the whole lot (using binding.WriteValue), a problem occurs - Namely, only the first bound control's data source is updated. All other controls are reset back to the original values.This is because when the current object changes (as happens after the above WriteValue), if ControlUpdateMode = OnPropertyChange, then all the other controls re-read in the value from the data source.
One way is to derive a class from BindingSource and add a WriteAllValues method.This method does the following:
(1) For each Binding, save the ControlUpdateMode
(2) For each Binding, set ControlUpdateMode = Never
(3) For each Binding, call the WriteValue Method
(4) For each Binding, reset ControlUpdateMode to the saved value
(5) For each Binding, if ControlUpdateMode = OnPropertyChange, call the ReadValue method.
If working with your own classes, would implementing IEditableObject resolve the issue?In another control I'm working on, I implement my own binding. The way I get around the issue in that is with the following code. (I've put in the bare minimum, I hope you can follow it!):
Private Shared ControlDoingExplicitUpdate As MyCustomControl = Nothing
Private Sub UpdateDataSourceFromControl(ByVal item As Object, ByVal propertyName As String, ByVal value As Object)
Dim p As PropertyDescriptor = Me.props(propertyName)
[code]....
So, when UpdateDataSourceFromControl is called, all the CurrentItemChanged events will be called for all other controls in the same BindingSource. However, because ControlDoingExplicitUpdate is set, they will not re-read in the value from the data source unless they happen to be the control that did the updating.ControlDoingExplicitUpdate is set to Nothing after all these events have completed, so that normal service resumes.
I have a DataGridView on a form in VB 2005 Express, of the 10 columns i need on this DGV 6 of them will be pulled from an MSSQL DB and 4 of them i need to manually enter. One thing i have going for me (i think) is that the 4 manual columns have the same data in each row.I have been filling this DGV using a datatable, but i am not figuring out how to add manual columns and databound ones in the same DGV. My column layout would look like this:[code]some one please explain to me how i would do something like this. if you can include the datatable definitions also it would be a big help, in order for me to verify that i am at least doing that the right way.

trying to automate some manual tasks. The task to access a web page (asp) login and then get some details from the site. The challenge is that the home page after login is build of 3 frames. when i see the page view source from the edit menu all i see are frame names. Once i right click on each frame and view source i am able to see the complete source - variables javascript function etc. The following code helps me to navigate :

Set ie = CreateObject("internetexplorer.Application")
Dim s As String[code]....
After this the page has been logged in. Now to proceed further i have to click a "image" object.
1) I tried qualifying the image like ie.Document..........item("img1").click this doesn't work
2) I tried calling the javascript function directly
ie.Document.all.Item("frame1").Document.parentwindow.execScript "JS_WGorUsers (funcname)", "javascript"
The 1st option gives a run time error and 2nd option says access denied. (if i login manually i am able to click the image.

I am looking to download several files from several FTP sites. Most of the time these files are all present by 08:00, but occasionally they are not there until a little later.Currently we have a bunch of excel sheets where the user goes into each and clicks a button which connects to the relevent ftp sites and downloads the files, performs some manipulation on them and then reports back to the user if the files exist, are empty, or if all is well.I am looking to redesign this, and was thinking I would encompass this within a Windows service which would have some sort of timer functionality which would start at about 7am, and end when all the files were downloaded whereby it would 'sleep' till the next business day.On the task completion it would send an email giving the information that was present in the current excel spereadsheets.
One thing with this is how often to poll the ftp sites to see if the files are there. I would ideally like to poll about once every 15 minutes or 1/2 hour, but if the user knows the file is present then they want to be able to invoke my process.One way of accomplishing this was to make the service a WCF windows service, so that it would run normally, and then if the user sends a request for amanual override, then the service would ignore its timer and run the process then an there.
