printer - get last page number to be printed

Hi again!

Last Problem get solved very fast - thx to Luc! This time, i had another problem with printing...
How do i get the last page (number of page) that will be printed at PrintPage - Event?

i want something like that:

Page 1 from 9 (where 9 is last page that will be printed)

i want to print Page x from x on any page... at footer line - anyone does know an solution for?

i did something like that

private int LinesThatFit(PrintPageEventArgs e, PointF curPosition)
{
int CalcSum = (e.MarginBounds.Bottom - (int)curPosition.Y);
int CalcRows = CalcSum / newFont.Height;

return CalcRows;
}

this works - but only for a static height - or better a static font height - i draw a string by DrawString - but if it's wrapped, the LinesThatFit doesn't work correct...

Thx again for any solution - i searched for this problem around 2 days... and found nothing - the LinesThatFit is an own creation... but that was when i just had line for line with none wrapped text!

Hope someone get's it!

Bye!

FreewareFire is in the House!

put a counter if you are calling your print function last time then use if condition and then
e.Drawstring(.....);

If you use SingleLine mode, the regex works. Just tested in Expresso

No, it's part of VS.NET, not part of the runtime.

Disable Listview Key Processing

Hello,

I have a listview on my form, but I do not want it to respond to keyboard input as I want to use the keys for something else.

Currently, when the listview is populated with items and I press a key (say, the 'm' key) the listview will change selections to the first item that starts with an M. I would like it not to do that please. Smile | :)

I am guessing this is where I can use 'protected override' (or something like that) however I am new to C# and I haven't grasped that yet.

All help is most appreciated. Thank you

Printers attached to windows machine

I like to find out programatically the users for the printers in C#

That is if you go to start -- settings -- printers and faxes and select a printer and right click
its properties you should find security there.

I want to access the users inside that security and see if a particular user is there programatically.

I did some research and found out that Win32_Printer class can be used to get all the printers connected to
a computer but not able to figure out how to get to the security of it.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

How to set the fix-sized windows Form

Hi, I have an windows Form which I don't want user to resize. In VS2003, I remove the minimized, maximize button, set the Locked property to true and everything is OK. Now, I upgraded to VS2005, this don't work anymore. The window can be resized. Is this a bug of VS2005? How can I do it? I tried to set max size and min size to the same and now the form has fixed size. But when I move the cursor to the edge of the form, cusor changed to hint that I am allowed to resize window. It's annoying. So, I don't think this is a good way to do it. Do you guys have any good idea?

Thanks.

You need to set the frame to be fixed, this is a property on the form, which I don't think has changed.

This should give you a collection of installed printers. (doesn't mean that they are connected!)
System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.StringCollection installedprinter = System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters;

Sorry, don't understand your question.

1.For the first i think i figured out. Using System.Management API you can actually get the printers online.
2.If you go into the windows and go to start-settings-printers and faxes, select a printer and right click properties. You
will find security and inside it you will find users. Is there a way to get to see those users programatically through c#

Hello everybody

I have layouts pictures of a TrackBar.
I wanted to know how can I set the pictures to the TrackBar control.
What I mean is I have a picture of the slider (the thing that I move in the trackbar) and I have the pictures for the actual trackbar that changes according to the place that I move the slider bar.
How can I do it?

thanks for your help

Make the control owner drawn. Or, you may need to write your own control.

Can you elaborate, please.

You can set a control to be OwnerDrawn, which means you handle an event and draw it yourself. You can then draw whatever bitmap you like. I'm not sure how this will work for a trackbar, but I know of no other way to create a trackbar that has a custom look, unless you wrote the class yourself.
