I have a class where it's problematic to relay on the properties being serialized in alphabetical order at design time.In other words, property Z must be serialized before property A.The problem arises because property property Z clears property A whenever it changes - which happens in InitializeComponent.I work around this problem by setting a FirstTime flag, but that seems messy.
View 2 RepliesIn my never ending search for more knowledge, I have come across Partial Classes. I was wondering if some of the kind people who actually understand the uses could explain some of them to me. Now I know that when we create a form that we actually create a partial class which the generator rewrites when we add a control or change a property at design-time, and this allows us not to have to worry about setting up the controls ourselves.

I have a listbox binded to a list of objects. For each list item I wanted to have a rectangle whose fill color is determined by a few properties of the binded object. So I did the following:
Made sure INotifyPropertyChanged was implemented on my object.Created a class to expose the properties I am interested in as attached properties.Binded the properties of the object to the attached properties of the rectangle Created a style that uses triggers to set the rectangle fill based on attached properties.
This works, but only the first time the property of the object changes. After that, the attached properties do not seem to be receiving notification when the data object's property changes. I have double checked and my data object is raising the INotifyPropertyChanged event.
<Rectangle Style="{StaticResource RecordStateRectangleStyle}"
Width="10" Height="10" Stroke="Black"
local:RecordAttachment.RecordState="{Binding Path=RecordState}"
local:RecordAttachment.IsDeleted="{Binding Path=IsDeleted}" />

Is it possible to load 2 documents in a printpreviewcontrol.
My program asks after a invoice was made if you want to print the invoice and/or the shippinglist.
Both are 2 different documents, so i was wondering if i can load them both.
I am trying to use printpreviewcontrol on a form, and have it produce a print preview that changes depending on what row of a datagridview is selected.Is this doable?I have had some trouble with this My documents works with a printpreviewdialog... but the printpreviewcontrol doesn't show any pages, even though I use the .document in the same was as I do for the printpreviewdialog.Do i need to reinitialize the control each time I try to print preview using it? I am trying to do this with a control that is no my main form, and not have a popup.

View 3 RepliesI'm working on a simple base form in which all the other forms in the project will inherit. This base form only adds 5 properties (at the moment) dealing with painting a gradient background. The problem I'm facing right now is when I change a property on Form1 (the test form) and click run it doesn't show that change. I also checked the .designer.vb file and when I make a change it's not added to the code behind file, I'm at a loss right now to why.

View 2 RepliesI am using this line of code on form load event it is working very fine but i have to problems
1. It replaces the form name and display the date and time but i want to keep both date and time and forms caption separated by some space.
2. When form loads it load the current date and time but the time does not change it should run.
What should i do please please help me code is as follows
Me.Text = Date.Now.ToLongDateString & " - " & TimeOfDay
I am throwing some data out into Excel and am having some formatting troubles. I have 5 columns (date, time, a long number I don't want displayed in scientific notation - text is fine, text, text). I can get it all working with numberformat, however I have to do them different ways.
Date works this way cell.numberformat = "m/d/yy" and it formats it to say 3/1/11
Time works this way cell.numberformat = "h:mm AM/PM" and it formats it to say 8:07 AM
For the long number cell.numberformat = "@" and it doesn't change the format and it gets displayed in scientific notation
BUT if I use cell.style.numberformat = "@" it works as it should, but it messes up all of the date and time cells. Apparently when you use style.numberformat, it doesn't just apply to the cell you're working with. If I try using style.numberformat with the date and time formats, they don't change and are entered as if I didn't change the format at all.
I am just curious about this, but in all my years writing code, I have never once ever come across a time to use a write only property. Of course readonly is pretty common in class development, and while I may have had classes where I don't specifically need to expose a property for reading, generally you end up with a method like SetValue or something like that, which is more or less the same idea as a writeonly property.
I don't recall ever seeing a writeonly property in a .NET framework class. So can anyone provide an example where it actually made good sense to use a writeonly property over either a read/write property, or a method?
Here's a problem: I've made an ActiveX control with VB.net (VS 2005) to use in a web application. The control has some properties and methods. The control loads fine in IE, calling methods works, but asking for a property with javascript is a problem.

The first time objTest.SomeProp returns 'Test' as it should. The second time is gives an error: 'Object doesn't support this property or method. After that, all methods and properties are 'unsupported'. Somehow this problem started after I implemented IObjectSafety interface in the control, but I have no idea how it affects the property and how to solve this problem.
I have a form where I have created a custom property, DataEntryRole, and set its Browsable attribute to True, as shown:
<Browsable(True)> _
Public Property DataEntryRole() As UserRole.PossibleRoles
Get
Return mDataEntryRole
End Get
[Code]...
When I view the designer for my form, DataEntryRole doesn't appear in the property box. I assume that it should appear if I were to create another form that inherited from this base form, but that's not what I want. I want this property to show up in my current form.
[code] i get an app error when running the app, because i didn't set the ID.I was wondering if there's a way to make sure the programmer assigns all properties in the class,and fail at COMPILE TIME rather than have to catch the error at runtime...
View 2 RepliesA component I'm making has a public property that represents a percentage. How I can give it a % symbol in the Properties Window at design time in Visual Studio? I mean, like the Opacity property of a Windows Form.
View 2 RepliesI have been making a control and have added a property for a list(of CustomClass). The custom class contains a string, an image and a list of another custom class which contains a string and an image. I have added this property to the designer by adding the browsable attributes and all appears to work correctly with this.
My problem comes when running the program. I can set all of the values within the property and I can go back to them and they are saved, however, as soon as I run the program, the values are wiped out as the property is set to Nothing.In order to allow my property to be edited and saved, I realize that I must initialize the list and have done so in the accessor method of the property (if the property's value is nothing).
I have modified the values in the designer and placed a breakpoint on all of the items which use the property and it's underlying field, as well as on the property's methods itself. The first breakpoint hit is of it being accessed and the value is always nothing.
I'm not sure where the values are supposed to be stored as I have checked the designer code where it would normally store types such as strings and I have checked the resources to see if they have been saved there (like an image would be). After running the code, the values in the designer are wiped out also.

I have a Picturebox, where the .Tag property is holding a path to a file. But I would also like to have something like a .Tag2 property that could hold another file... I'm guessing this is possible to achive, but I have been struggling with this for quite some time now, and I really don't how I to do this... I can't seem to any useful information on the net either...

Using a plugin architecture, i created a Form Class that holds the Mdi Form. it has menustrip, toolstrip and statusstrip.
child forms are created as class and are loaded into the Mdi Form at runtime.
using interface, i was able to execute subs and functions of a child in the Mdi Form and vice versa.
now i need to change property values.. to be exact, i need to change the enabled property of the toolstrip buttons depending on which child form is activated using the form_activated event of the child form.
the problem i now have is how to change the property of the toolstrip item in the Mdi Form.. should i be using interface on this as well by creating subs in the interface and have the Mdi Form implement this interface?
is it possible to make this:
TextBox1.Enabled = False
TextBox2.Enabled = False
TextBox3.Enabled = False

(using VB.Net 2008) I'm inheriting from a class, and overriding one of the properties. However, the original property has public get & set, whereas I want to make it read-only in my derived class, because the property in my derived class is already determined by other factors. But it appears I can't change the access level of any overridden method. Is this possible?
The closest analogy I came up with is suppose you have a Person class, with a get/set Address property. Now suppose you inherit Child from Person, and Child will have a new Parent property. Say you want the Child's Address property to be readonly, because it will simply return the address of Parent. Even if you can override the Address property, you can't make the Set non-public. The best I can do is make it throw an exception but that's obviously misleading during design time.
I am inheriting my own DataGridView (say MyDataGridView) from the standard DataGridView control. What I want is that certain properties of MyDataGridView should have a different default value than what its base have. For example, AllowUserToAddRows, AllowUserToDeleteRows, AllowUserToResizeRows properties should have the default values of False; so that when I drag MyDataGridView into a form in the IDE, the default values shown in the properties grid should be False. Later on, if I want to change them to True from the grid, they will be set accordingly.
