View 1 RepliesWith VB.net, I'm coding a simple application to get more used to the new .Net format.
I'd like to save all the information to a 'new' database file. how to create a database on the fly, once that is done i'll be able to connect to it no problem, but actually creating the file is proving difficult to work/find out.
Also, with vb.net and the newly created custom file, how can it be made to automatically open that information with the program?
Is there a method in installation to associate the file type with the new program? How can i check when the program loads if a database file has been 'double-clicked' (rather than just running from the .exe of the program) and proceed to load the data?
EDIT1 - Extra InfoThe windows application has many different fields and content etc, then i need to save that to a file that could later be loaded by 'double clicking'. I assumed the easiest way would be to create a mini-database for each unique file
This is what I would like to achieve:To create a custom messagebox, with varying number of buttons with custom .Text descriptions, and other features. I intended to have a property array that would be redim-ed and have values (.Text values) set by the calling class:

I need two seperate lists, which every item is Integer, String, Bitmap - and one which every item is Integer, String String. However I don't know how to do this, or even where to look - I've googled for custom objects and custom object lists. What I'm trying to do is this.Custom Object1 is Integer, String, Bitmap Custom Object2 is Integer, String, String
In one thread I'll be adding items to List1(Of Object1), and processing them, and adding the results to List2(Of Object2), however I need to be able from other threads to look at the list and say only give me the items where Integer = (my thread ID), is this possible? Any help, or even links to information that would be relevant to this request would be helpful?
I am trying to create a file association in my program, which requires me to create some keys in the registry. However, when I try to create the keys, I get a System.UnauthorizedAccessException.
I have tried searching for a solution, and the only thing I can find is various examples of passing a boolean value to request write access for the "OpenSubKey" method. My problem currently is not opening the key, it's creating it. I have tried several of the different overloads to no avail.
I am guessing that I will need to temporarily elevate the access of my app to create the registry key. What I don't want to do is permanently raise the access of my app just to accomodate this one, small function, which should only really be needed by the user one time in order to create the file association.
Here is my code in progress:
Private Sub chkSOPAssociation_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles chkSOPAssociation.Click
If chkSOPAssociation.Checked = True Then

I have a checkbox on my form. When the user clicks it, it sets the file association if the checkbox is checked, or else it deletes the association if the checkbox is unchecked.
I came across this great article on creating a custom datagridview column which creates a graph-like effect in the cells of a custom datagridview column:[URL]..Does anyone know how you would edit this to format the number in the cell as a percentage? And does anyone know how you would set this up to take 0 values which do not create any graph effects at all.I have been trying to do this but keep getting errors.
View 1 RepliesI was trying to block the closing of a custom combo box popup window in my custom DataGrid. The popup window comes by pressing F4 or ALT+DOWN keys in my datagrid which is getting closed if I press the down arrow for the first time, after showing the first value in the combo box as selected. Next time onwards, if I press the F4 key and down arrow, I can move to any item in the popup window and select the item using keyboard and in that case, the popup window is not getting closed till I press the ENTER key or selection using the Mouse. Is there any specific reason for this behaviour or something is missing in my code part? [code]...

View 6 RepliesI'm using custom serialization and when the xml is generated it's putting the class name as the root element
Example:
<MyClassName>
<MyIntendedRootNode>
<ObjectType>
[code]....
I'm invoking the serialization by calling xmlserializer.Serialize(writer,Me) so I'm sure that has something to do with it.I've tried putting XMLRoot onto the class, but I think as vb is compiling this partial class with its aspx page, it's either overwriting this property or ignoring it entirely.I'd like to just tell it to either throw away everything it has and use a different root element.
I have a Custom Principal class that Implements System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal and a Custom Identity class that Implements System.Security.Principal.IIdentity. So when a user successfully login to my windows form application, I set My.User.CurrentPrincipal = CustomPrincipal, which worked great until I started adding custom functions to my Principal and Identity classes.

I have a custom SiteMapProvider (populated from database) and a custom AuthorizeAttribute (validates current users roles + requested page against Role_Page database) for controller classes.I have to implement the function SiteMapProvider.IsAccessibleToUser(context, node). I also have to implement AuthorizeAttribute.AuthorizeCore(context).How are these two functions related? Isn't there some way to 'attribute' the SiteMapProvider?
Some code:
edit: Might this be a solution (inside AuthorizeCore())? context however is HttpContextBase, and IsAccessibleToUser() only takes HttpContext as parameter.If Not SiteMap.Provider.IsAccessibleToUser(context, SiteMap.CurrentNode) Then
current code:
Public Class CustomValidateAuthorization : Inherits AuthorizeAttribute
Public Sub New()
End Sub
