The code should be put in the thread or in the form?

It should be in the method which updates GUI. See the following sample

void WorkerMethod() {
    if(this.InvokeRequired)
       this.Invoke(new MethodInvoker(UpdateGUI));
}

void UpdateGUI() {
  // do GUI updation here
}

All C# applications should call Application.Quit(); in the beginning to avoid any .NET problems.- Unclyclopedia

You might want to take a look at BackgroundWorker object. An example might look like the following, depending on your needs.

_bw = new BackgroundWorker();
_bw.RunWorkerCompleted += new RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler(Worker_RunWorkerCompleted);
_bw.ProgressChanged += new ProgressChangedEventHandler(Worker_ProgressChanged);
_bw.DoWork += new DoWorkEventHandler(Worker_DoWork);
_bw.WorkerReportsProgress = true;
_bw.WorkerSupportsCancellation = true;

Look at 

_bw.ReportProgress(..) method

execute sql

Hi,
My new project is to go through a list of tasks against each sql server 2005 machines. Each task has a different sql query which gets executed and the data is returned for each task.
I am thinking of having each task with the relevant sql inside an xml file.
i.e.
<tasks>
<task>
<name>get the version of sql server</name>
<sql>sql code here</sql>
</task>
<task>
<name>get domain name</name>
<sql>sql code here</sql>
</task>
<task>
...
</task>
</tasks>

Then a winform application goes through this list in the xml file and for each task it's sql gets executed against the master database.

1)
Is what I am doing correct?
2)
Can the .net front end pickup the sql as a string and execute it against the sql server 2005?

Thanks

You can use ADO.NET[^] to create a connection to the database and then query all databases using a SqlCommand. To connect to the database you need a valid connection string[^].

I'd recomment to use the MySQL .NET connector[^] to use for this task.

Sir as you give me the link of connection string that is used to connect to MySQL server that's great but as i want to connect to like this user will enter Server Name, UserID and Password in the available textboxes and after that it will click on connect button that it should connect with all the available databases and shows them in Listbox

Thanks

I'm not sure if you can connect to the server without specifying a valid database. Maybe you should once connect to a database and then issue the SHOW DATABASES SQL command to get a list of the databases available to use for the next DB login from the listbox.

bindingsource.filter syntax question

crash8939-Jul-08 18:39

9-Jul-08 18:39

I've done some looking around and I'm a bit confused

Here is an example of the data that's in the binding source

[IMG]http://i38.tinypic.com/xfoimp.png[/IMG]

what i want to do is sort on the 3rd row ( 4 or 3) and then sort by the date ( to see if the record is before a certian time

my idea to do this was to

filter the BS
BS.count
then unfiltered the BS

The problem i keep running into is that i cant say that i want Just 4 or Just 3

What I've come up with so far is

private int deadlineCount(DateTime Time, int LeagueID)
        {
            int total = 0;
            string league;
            if (LeagueID == 99)
            {
                league = "";
            }
            else
            {
                league = LeagueID.ToString();
            }



            BS.Filter = string.Format("LeagueID >= '{0}' and LeagueID <= '{0}'and [End] <#12/30/1899 {1}#", league, Time.ToString("h:mm tt"));
            total = BS.Count;
            BS.Filter = "";
            
            return total;
        
        }

But i keep running into problems that i cant use any operator ( like ,> ,= ,>=,) becuase it can not preform X onn system.int32 and system.string.

I've been looking around but all the example seem to be for strings or dates.

timer does not work

hi, i have a timer which call this method CalPrice().

The calprice will check the dategridview first column if the checkbox ==true, then calculate the price base on the the other column

private void CalPrice()
       {
           double price = 0.0;
           foreach (DataGridViewRow dgw in dataGridProduct.Rows)
           {
               DataGridViewCheckBoxCell datacell = dgw.Cells[0] as DataGridViewCheckBoxCell;

               try
               {
                   if ((bool)datacell.Value == true)
                   {
                       //MessageBox.Show("" + dgw.ToString());

                       price += Convert.ToDouble(dgw.Cells[6].Value.ToString());

                   }
                   lblTotalPrice.Text = "Total Price : $ " + price;
               }

               catch (Exception exc)
               {
               }
           }
       private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           CalPrice();
       }
       }

I have set the timer to enable and interval to 1000(1 second). But when i load the form, the timer dont seems to start. It does not call the calPrice method

Hi!
Did you debug or are you just assuming that CalPrice is not being called?
If you're simply swallowing any exception that's being thrown, you can come to false conclusions.

Apart from that you either didn't assign an event handler for Tick or you didn't start the timer - not much else that can go wrong. Timers work just fine for a lot of people out there, you know... Smile | :)

which event should i use to check if the column is tick or untick in a datagrid.

i tried cell_click but after i tick a checkbox, i have to click OUt of the datagrid, then it will populate the price

Seishin#9-Jul-08 21:58

Maybe grid's CellValueChanged event - in the event arguments you get the index of the edited row and column index as well..

it's called when the value is commited ex. when the editmode is set to 'doubleclick or f2' [entar] commits value change.

also when you use Convert.To... you don't have to use ToString() on the converted object.

I am not clear about ‘Printer Classes’, however printing can be done using PrintDocument and Print Preview control.

In case if you need to access printer settings you may do so by accessing System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings class items.

The logical thing to do here is to make both forms laid out on user controls, then show them both in the one form.

You may hide the first form (Closing your start up form will close the application).
Also code will stop executing at the call ".ShowDialog()", and will only continue after the user has closed the second form.
