I have already got the code so I know when the picture has been changed so I don't need to do anything with that (I am pretty sure) but the big problem is that when PictureBox1 already has an Image, the next Image in the clipboard that is copied replaces PictureBox1's Image instead of going to PictureBox2. Will anyone be able to solve this?
is there any way to take letters out of a textbox then re-display them scrambled, such as the word Tissue then at the push of a button make the word displayed sisute or some other order?
View 11 RepliesI am using the SHGetFileInfo function to get the name of folders etc. The reason that I use it, is because it also has to get the name when copying a drive, so it returns "Local Disk (C:)" instead of "C:".This worked, up until recently, I cannot remember what I changed! Suddenly, it's always missing the first 4 letters! Like, "Local Disk (C:)" becomes "l Disk (C:)".
I'm on Windows 7, and it works just fine on Windows XP. Here's my

I am unable to read a pasted datagridviewrow object from the clipboard. All I want to do is, when a user has the entire row selected and copied, I would paste that row into the clipboard as a DataObject. That works just fine but when I attempt to read that DataObject (after the user clicks Paste) the DataGridViewRow that's saved in the clipboard always has a value of Nothing. Here's the code I'm using for Copy and Paste.

I'm keeping track of some things that are numbered and others that are lettered; while NumericUpDown is perfect for selecting numbered things, I need an analogue for selecting lettered things. The obvious choice would be a listbox that just contains all the letters of the alphabet. But I need to show only the appropriate range of letters, so if I want to use a listbox, I need to write a function that populates the listbox with the first n letters of the alphabet; if n > 26, it should continue with aa, ab, and so on. How do I do this?

View 3 Repliesalthough this topic has been posted for many times, I still can't figure out how to copy multi formats in clipboard.For example, I have a class called "Meta" and it contains data of a drawing. So if someone copy it to the clipboard, it should contains the original data of the class in a custom format called "drawing", a metafile of the drawing and a bitmap in case some app can't read metafiles. How exactly can I do?

If I failed to copy clipboard I would wait 10 seconds and try again. Then it keeps failing.
However, if I try to debug the program or do any human stuff it gets fixed by it self. But I don't want human intervention.
