i've been researching for a technique on how to create an excel-compatible dbf file. so far, i've downloaded a sample program in http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/Code/2002/Feb/xBaseEngineRFV.asp.
the output file is good and can be opened in visual foxpro 9, but my problem is my client wants to open it in excel. he's used to opening dbf's in excel.
can somebody help me please?
i'm not always on here, so please email your answer to xmione@yahoo.com
tnx

In MFC you can assign a pointer or other 4 byte value to each item in a list control via GetItemData / SetItemData. Is there an equivilent in dot net?
|
|
|
|
|
I think I figured it out. You add your actual object to the list control and then override the ToString() on that object rather than Items.Add(object.ToString());
pretty cool
|
|
|
|
|
or you can go one better and create your own listitem object that inherits listitem and add your own public propeties
like this
public class MyListItem : ListViewItem
{
public string myvalue;
}
then use MyListItem class when creating ListviewItems and you'll have access to myvalue!
C# is very cool

Can you do in place editing of List Box Items?

Hi!!
I have a call to my data access class and I do it like this (from my displayNews.aspx page:
News objNews = NewsDA.GetNewsDetails(m_iNewsID);
m_iNewsID is the id number which I got from the query string
And my GetNewsDetails in my NewsDA class looks like this:
public static News GetNewsDetails(int intNewsID)
{
News objNews = new News();
// Create instance of connection and command object
SqlConnection objConn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["connectionString"]);
SqlCommand objCmd = new SqlCommand("sp_GetNewsByID", objConn);
// Mark the command as a SPROC
objCmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
// Add parameters to SPROC
SqlParameter paramNewsID = new SqlParameter("@NewsID", SqlDbType.Int, 4);
paramNewsID.Value = intNewsID;
objCmd.Parameters.Add(paramNewsID);
// Execute the statement
try
{
objConn.Open();
SqlDataReader objDr = objCmd.ExecuteReader();
try
{
while (objDr.Read())
{
objNews.NewsID = Convert.ToInt32(objDr["PKNewsID"]);
objNews.CategoryID = Globals.CheckDBIntForDBNulls(objDr["FKNewsCategoryID"]);
objNews.Title = objDr["NewsTitle"].ToString();
}
}
finally
{
if(!objDr.IsClosed)
{
objDr.Close();
}
}
}
finally
{
if(objConn.State == ConnectionState.Open)
{
objConn.Close();
}
objConn.Dispose();
objCmd.Dispose();
}
// Return the news object
return objNews;
}
If no records are found, then I should probably set objNews to null?? And the where I call this function, then I should probably test if the news object is equal to null?? I was thinking of putting in an if statement there in the second try block, if the dataset has rows, then do the while statement, otherwise set the objNews = null??
Please can some one advise. If there is a better way of testing if an object of News has any records (rows) in it, please let me know.
Regards,
ma se

Use a DataAdapter to fill a Datatable/Dataset.

Yes, but I am not returning a lot of records, just one based on the ID, so won't the data reader be the best way?
If I were to use the data reader, where and how would I test if any records were found?

If you are going to put the data into your business object (News) then I do not suggest using a SqlDataAdapter to fill a DataTable/DataSet because all you are going is wasting time creating extra copies of the data that you will throw away. (The SqlDataAdapter uses a SqlDataReader internally to populate the DataTable/DataSet)
You could look at the SqlDataReader.HasRows[^] property.
At the top of your method replace
News objNews = new News(); with
News objNews = null; . Wait until you perform the ExecuteReader() then, inside your try block (replacing the while loop), do something like this:
if (objDr.HasRows)
{
objNews = new News();
objDr.Read()
objNews.NewsID = Convert.ToInt32(objDr["PKNewsID"]);
objNews.CategoryID = Globals.CheckDBIntForDBNulls(objDr["FKNewsCategoryID"]);
objNews.Title = objDr["NewsTitle"].ToString();
}I took out the while because it wasn't really doing anything useful. If you expect only one row to be returned then the above will be fine. If you expect more than one row returned and you are just looking for the results of the last row then your old while loop will work, but it suggests there is something wrong with the SQL that it is returning more than it should.
Now, if no rows are returned from SQL Server, a null is returned from the method.
Does this help?

You can't maintain state between pages without using session variables, and you should avoid it. Instead, pass a parameter on the URL which your page then uses to restore it's state from the database.

How collections (Queue/Stack/Hashtable...) store complex object?
Do they store object reference or object gets serialize?
Appreciate your help.

I'm pretty sure they just store a reference to the object, I know that types such as int get boxed to be stored in a C# 1.1 container.

It means if I dispose the object instance, the reference in Queue will return false values
Is there any way I can store the full object?

Of course. No different to a vector in C++, if you store a pointer, don't delete it elsewhere.

Don't dispose of stuff you want to keep. I don't see the problem here.

Depends on what you store in the collection. Value types (structs and other primitive data types except string) get boxed, which implicitly creates a copy of the original object. Reference types (classes) are stored by reference.

Hi
I have an application that has many different forms. All these forms use a certain kind of a TreeView that has drag/drop rules, copy/paste rules and other functionalities. I'm trying to create one inherited TreeView control instead of doing this for every TreeView in my application. Where do I start? How do I go about accomplishing that?
Thank you for your help.

hi, I have a question.
I want to draw a line on the panel but this line must be drawn above all the control in this panel.
my code doesn't work as my want.
protected override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
{
base.OnPaint (e);
Graphics g = e.Graphics;
g.DrawRectangle(new Pen(Color.Red,3),0,0,this.Width-10,this.Height-10);
//this rectange still draws under all control
}
thanks for help!

Any control on your panel will draw above the panel. If this were not so, then you wouldn't be able to see your controls at all.

Are you doing this in the FORM's on paint, or a control's (what is this)? the co-ordinates you specify should draw the rectangle positionned at the top left of this and 10 pix smaller than the control's size - i.i the top left corner of the rectangle will be at the same point as the top left corner of the control's client area, with it's bottom right corner 10 pix in from this's botoom right corner...
