View 1 Repliesfigure out a way to link datagridviews to other controls like a combobox, list view or even another datagridviewBecause much of the code is managed by the IDE, I was expecting an IDE approach to linking controls. Is this the case or do I have to modify the generated code to do what I want.An example would be to use a combobox to limit the number of entries in a datagridview etc

View 21 RepliesI am having a problem marshaling data between managed and unmanaged code. So I need to inspect the data at the byte level. What I need to do is store a number, say 8 into a 4-byte integer then copy it to an array bytArray(4) and compare those bytes with other data. I also need to set up the same array and copy it to an integer variable.

View 4 RepliesI have never made a notepad like program just calculators and felt like learning how to link/find the parts to make save, open, format, and some other extras but I have NO code. I can't move on unless I know the parts needed and what the code for one of them is if I can link the save as button on the menu bar to the part needed to save I can figure the rest out besides the format that it saves in.

I have my own class of graphic objects, and now I'd like to allow a user to right-click on one of those within the application and see a properties window. Is there a pre-built dialog or control for displaying properties at runtime? I'd like to have something just like the IDE properties window button for my application.
View 4 RepliesIs it possible to start another EXE in Managed Code? At this time, all I can do is use:

Is there another way to call another EXE within the same project?
I have a .Net application (VB in particular, although I would this to be as language agnostic as possible) that uses a COM object (made in C++). I need to implement a event in COM that passes a char array from C++ to .Net. I guess I need to convert the array to a managed array; How can I do this?
View 2 RepliesI am trying to develop a dll in VisualStudio2005 in vb.net that will communicate with a spectrometer attached to the USB port of the computer.Now the dll exists in C++ and it works like a charm. It is unmanaged code.Now if I try to translate this code in VB.net (because our app is in VB and my boss wants it in VB for maintainability) I have problems.
First of all, I am trying to create a file to open that port. The code in C++ looks like below and it works. Needles to say I tried to call the C++ dll from our app and it works. If I call the vb dll it doesn't. It gives me "access denied" no matter what I tried. I am not sure if my CreateFile is wrong or it's .net. I read somewhere that I need a manifest file included in the dll? Has anyone experience something like this? Why would i get "ACCESS DENIED" all the time?
// close and clear current stuff
ClosePort();
swprintf( sDevice, L"\\?\usb#vid_0765&pid_%s#******#{%s}", Device, PRIVATE_IID_STR );

I need to write a DLL in C that is used a plugin for an existing application.The DLL has to be compiled by the Visual Studio 2008 compiler with the following options.[code]It's then linked to applications library's.What it actually needs to do and what's causing me the issues is that within one of the methods it needs to pull data from a sql server 2008 r2. From what I've seen today you wouldn't be able to do this directly in C as SQL Server past 2005 is designed to communicate with CLR languages( C#, C++, VB.Net).It was suggested that I handle all the database communication with a VB.Net dll and then call said function from within the C dll. Most of what I've found on the topic of calling managed dll's from unmanaged code has talked about pinvoke or com wrappers and mainly from the perspective of c++.

View 1 RepliesI have a link here that works perfect for calling the postback close that I need to happen:
<a href="javascript:parent.__doPostBack('Close','')"><asp:Label ID="Label5" runat="server" Text="Close Me"></asp:Label></a>
However, I would like to be able to call the *javascript:parent.__doPostBack('Close','')* method from the code-behind file rather than the user clicking the link. I.e., when I have completed my tasks in the application code, call parent.doPostBack as my last function call, which closes the window in question.

I am trying to get some data from a C Dll via a structure and I am getting incorrect values back. I tried a couple of examples I found but they do not work. Since I do not know the proper way. I do not know how to fix it. Can anyone give me any advice, hints, redirection or any assistance what-so-ever. I've been struggling with this for weeks.

View 2 RepliesLets say i'm making a new dialog. I don't want to expose the properties of the form to code elsewhere, only specific ones I define. I tried making the form Protected (including the Designer generated code) and putting it in another class, but then I can't figure out how to access the form from my code. Am I going about this completely the wrong way, or what?
Code:
I'm working on a Hazardous Materials label printing program. One of the options is to do an "NFPA" label. Since there are 4 values required with 4 or 6 options, the ratings are entered via radio buttons in a group box. That's working okay. I display values in the NFPA diamond as they're entered: left quadrant blue, top quadrant red, left yellow, bottom red. I'm having trouble with the label in which the rating will be displayed on top of a jpg diamond for the white. In this quadrant the text can be up to 4 characters. I can accept the text going into an adjacent block a little, but the corners of the label overlap into another quadrant/color. I reduced the font size which solved the overlap problem but the font is then too small and looks terrible. I tried to make the background of the label transparent to let the color come through correctly but that's not a valid value for label.background. I'm figuring that the transparent background is the best solution. What can I use that will accept a transparent background so the color shows through?
I'm trying to set the transparent property via label properties properties, not via code. Here's the code if it makes any difference:
Public Class NFPA
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Close()
End Sub

How do I get at and invoke the properties dialog supplied by the manufactured? I have search this many times and found that most of the posts contain solutions that the original poster claims don't work The standard PrintProperties class does not handle a lot of printers who have specifictsks, eg a printer designed to pint on the face odf CD/DVD. I have found examples of how do this in VB6, but every examply I find for the versions of VB Basic after thet have comments that the solution provided did not persist the user chnges. Bow, come on, there has to be a way of displaying and persisting the user choises the dialog bog provided by the printer manufacturer!Terry

View 3 RepliesAfter deploying and installing my application I use the app to create and save a file with my own file extension. After the file is created I right-click on the file and select Open With.. so that I can associate this file extension with my application. In the Open With dialog I use the Browse button to find my application and select it. In the Open With dialog the application icon is shown, but the name of the app is blank (looks like an empty string). Can anyone tell me why this might be happening? I've looked at the Registry, which shows the correct app, but every time I open the Open With dialog only the application icon is displayed, no name.
View 2 RepliesI'm developing a WinForms app in VB.NET, that handles sets of style data, and when the user clicks on another set's label, it prompts through a dialog "You are leaving this style preset to edit another one. keep changes on this one? [Yes] [No]".But, I'm facing the problem that, when the user clicks either option, and the dialog closes, everything has to be refreshed, and loading the form again seems a good option.[code]But as soon as that sub is called from the prompt, it crashes the application. (doesn't show an error in debug, simply crashes) How should I, from a given dialog, close the dialog, it's parent, and re-open it's parent? (which triggers all the Dialog_Load() code of the parent)
