I want to set different context menu for datagridview cells, rowheaders and columnheaders.The idea is that when I right-click any of these items, a different context menu is displayed. How do i do this?
View 2 RepliesI have several DataGridView's that are located in several different containers. I want to display a small form in a precise location relative to the RowHeader when the user's mouse moves over the row header of the datagridview. How can I get the screen coordinates of the RowHeader? The code below does not display the form in the proper location. I want the top-left corner of the form to be displayed 15 points to the right of the Right property and 15 points below the Bottom property of the RowHeader.

I can do the context menu. When I'm NOT using a context menu, I can detect a right-click using the mouse click event.BUT how do I detect which cell that's beiing right-clicked on in a datagrid WHEN a context menu is being used (as the mouse-click doesn't seem to fire when a context menu is used - so I assume that the menu mechanism consumes the right-click message and doesn't pass it on so to speak).I have tried to manually call the context menu on a right-click, but then the context menu comes up at the wrong location.Rather than send a long listing of my multinedia program so far - here's something I tried as a separate proglet. I can send the long multimedia project listing if you like (so you can see why this it is important to resolve this little issue).

Is it possible to attach a context menu to a oomboxcolumn in a DataGridView? That is I want the context menu to display after the user chooses an item in the combox.
View 5 RepliesI'm have an app that currently allows a user to select a color (from a Color Dialog) which updates an unbound Datagridview with the name of the selected color & also changes the background of the selected row to that color.
I need to do one of 2 things:
Either change the Color Dialog so that I can set the colors available
Or Allow the user to select colors from a context menu and have that update the Datagridview.
I am creating an application to store my usernames/passwords etc. I have a datagridview (DataGridView1) on my form which displays the following information for each of my entries: Website name, website address, username, password, email address used (I sometimes use disposable email addresses) and any notes relating to that entry.

VB express 2008 .net 3.5 or .net 4.0 VB express 2010?I have written application to convert RTF to HTML. The main Purpose of the application is to copy VS code to the clipboard and covert it then put it back into the clipboard as a HTML Document so that it can be pasted into a HTML document such as Windows Live Mail. I found that code copied and pasted is spaced out in in the wrong positions.
The applications works perfect with no bugs so far. I then asked Myself how to go about doing the copy with the least amount of operator interaction. So I added an Icon to the Icon Tray with a right click menu to use to convert once the Rich Text Format was copied to the clipboard. This works fine except you have Five steps, Select the text, Copy to clipboard, Right Click the icon, Select the Converter and Paste. The normal is three steps.
To this the best solution is to add a context menu item to the active form such as the RTF editor or window. So that when you select the Rich Text to copy and right click on the form to bring up that menu then to Just Select the menu Item such as "Copy RT and Convert" I searched and found about 544000 Items and tried to restrict down to no avail. I read until I finally gave up. I did not find any code examples of this. Almost every thing I found related to the web or some other explicit document like Excel and not to the Various windows that could be active with RT in it.
how do you add a context menu item to the context menu of an active rich text format window such as WordPad or VB?I have test in my application that tests to see if it is a RTF in the clipboard so if it is not the converter does nothing.

View 1 RepliesI want to know if VB.Net already has a control like this before I start wasting time building my own. I have a DataGridView that shows the row error symbol in the RowHeader if the update to the database is unsuccessful for that row. Currently, if you hover the mouse over the error icon it will show a default tool tip to display the error text.I would like the user to left-click the RowHeader and a small popup window will show the error text. Then when the user clicks somewhere other than the popup window it will disappear just like a context menu. do I need to build a form with no borders that has a large textbox in it, then setup an event so when the form loses focus it closes? Or does a context menu strip have the ability to support a large textbox? Or do I use a splash screen?

View 10 RepliesI have an application that is simply an icon that sits in the system tray, with a context menu that opens upon right-clicking. One of the options in the menu is a text box where the user can enter a number, and press enter to perform a specific action (which is not significant to my question). The problem with this, however, is that if the mouse moves away from the text box, the menu closes.
Is there a way to keep the menu open as long as the text box has focus no matter what?

View 14 RepliesI've attached a context menu to a richtextbox. This textbox contains lines of data, and I want to find the text of the line which the user has pressed.I found how to do it after the user has chosen one of the context menu items. But I can't figure out how to do it before or when the context menu is opened. The reason for that is that I'd like to disable one of the context menu items if the line of text is missing some text. I tried the following but it's not working:
Private Sub ContextMenuStrip1_Opening(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs)

Dim line As Integer = RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(RichTextBox1.SelectionStart)
