Use the Invalide method of the control to make it redraw itself.

b { font-weight: normal; }

which invalid method? do u have an example?
Donkaiser
|
|
|
|

anyControl.Invalidate();
// If you need an immediate redraw...
anyControl.Update();
// Alternatively, if you're lazy and always want an immediate redraw...
anyControl.Refresh();

oh i see. so each time i wanna update sth i need to refresh the display. i thought the paint event keep running in the background. anyway i was trying to implement this:
button1_click(....event e)
{
g.FillEllipse(Brushes.Red, Circles[3]);
g.DrawEllipse(Pens.Black, Circles[3]);
}
g is global type Graphics;
Circles is global type RectangleF[];
but it gave me that i have invalid parameter. why? Please refer to my original code for the on paint code.

'g' has probably been disposed of after your Paint event handler is called. Instead of caching the Graphics object you receive in the Paint handler, try calling CreateGraphics() on the TabPage in the Click handler (be sure to call Dispose on that Graphics object when you're finished with it). Draw with that Graphics object instead.

No, the paint event is only called when it's needed. If it was running constantly, it would use a huge amount of cpu, and the display would flicker.

Hi world !
I have a strange need today : create an Excel file without Microsoft Office installed on computer.
I work on a WinForm application wrote in C# using .Net 1.1.xxxx.
> I need to be able to create a new .xls file, with some data generated in a progamm loop
> I also need to set the BackGround color for some cells
And the generated file must be directly openable in Excell ( with a double click for exemple : the file is a valid .xls file )
I've think about XML format, but cannot found full description to allow cells BackGroundColor custom.
Thanks in advance if someone have a genius idea ! ... ![Rose | [Rose]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
PS: Sorry if this post isn't in the correct forum ... 
Have a nice day.
Sebastien.

You could look at the open office source for information about how the .xls binary is structured. Good luck. From what I've heard the office binary formats are full of nasty gotchas.

That's a good idea ! Thanks 
... maybe someone have ever write a dll, or ?!
I think browse OpenOffice source code is a big task !!! 
Arrghhhh ... Life is hard ...

I've never used this thing[^] but it looks like it does what you need. Don't yell at me if it sucks!

I want to, after deployement of the application, modify the resources of my application. Let say you have a windows form with a button that has a name but you want the user to have the posibility to modify it. Since resources are compile in dll, it is a bit tricky. I have explore two possibilities:
1- I've tried to implement my own resource manager that I would replace in my form where as :
System.ComponentModel.ComponentResourceManager resources = myresourcemanager;
The ComponentResourceManager inherit from ResourceManager and add the ApplyResource method. I can easly derive from ComponentResourceManager, but I have a hard time changing the ResourceManager that it derive from.
I would like to modify only one line of code since it is in the Designer class. And that would leave me the IDE functionnality to generate resources.
I found this article : http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/customsqlserverprovider.asp that is nice but is for asp and I'm missing information to fill the gap.
2- Uses uncompile resource at runtime that I would be able to modify. I found somewhere that it is possible with asp but didn't find much information about it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi,
When using webservice, I have the time like that:
"2006-06-15T12:10:09Z"
I can't understand it? Is it universal time? "T" & "Z" mean?
Thanks for your help!
Hung

T is apparently a delimiter between the date and time. Z stands for Zulu which is an alternate name for universal time (UTC), and practically equivilant to GMT. There are a few differences between UTC and the older GMT standard but unless you're a clock geek they're meaningless.

Hi,
What are a few .Net data structures let you manipulate several objects of data through a single variable name ?
Name at least 1 in both the System.Collections namespace and System.Data namespace. How do you choose when to use one of these, or an Array for example ?
Thanks in advance

Open your textbook. I'm sure those answers are readily available, since this sounds like a really easy question on homework.
2 things:
1) Read the sticky at the top, it will help you get answers.
2) To elaborate, had you posted this exact question, but followed it with what you thought the answer was, and what you were having problems conceptualizing (Like trying to come up with situations when you would use one data collection object or another, with examples), I'm sure you probably would have gotten a few answers to try and help you understand things better. I (and I'm not sure I speak for everyone, but I definetely speak for myself) am glad to help to people who it seems have put work into their efforts so far.

I can perfectly call a new web page from a Hyperlink control inside a DataList control and pass two values to it by using this code:
___________________________________________________________
...
<asp:DataList ID="promotionlist" Runat="server" >
<ItemTemplate>
.
.
.
<asp:HyperLink ID="HyperLink1" Runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%# "../NewWebPage.aspx?Title=" + Eval("Title") + "&Price=" + Eval("Price") %>'>
<img width="74" height="24" src="Images/newwebpage.gif" border="0"/>
</asp:HyperLink>
.
.
.
</ItemTemplate>
</asp:DataList>
...
___________________________________________________________
But the problem with that is that it replaces the current web page ( web form ) which defeats my purpose.
I need the new page to appear in a (((pop-up window ))) and also receive the values “Title” and “Price” that are received through the “Eval()” function.
I did not find any C# function like the javascript one ( window.open()) so I tried an inline javascript code with inline C# insertions but it does not work.
I am not sure if the culprit is the syntax or it is impossible to concatenate strings in inline javascript with values obtained by inline C# code like (<%#Eval("Title") %>).
I would be grateful to whom could suggest a simple and elegant solution or correct the syntax of my code.
Here is my current tentative code ( it does not work ):
__________________________________________________________
…
<a href='' onclick = "window.open('NewWebPage.aspx?Title='+<%# Eval("Title") %>+'&Price='+<%# Eval("Price")%>)">
<img width="74" height="24" src="Images/newwebpage.gif" border="0"/>
</a>
..

Can you open the window through normal Javascript, and put the values for title and price in Session.

Elina

Hi Elina. Good to know people who loves life. Yes, life is wonderful ! 
Could you tell me, using some code example, how to put values in the Session from a DataList and how to retrieve them inside a pop-up window ?
|
|
|
|
|
Hi tedhill,
(Should I add the number ? )
Here is how you put the value to the Session:
Session[indexName] = yourValue;
Now retrieve it:
yourRetrievedValue= (YourValueType)Session[indexname].
indexName is any string you choose.
Good Luck,
Elina

Let me know, if you will have problems.
Will be happy to help, if I will be able, of course

Hi all,
I'm trying to do some managed directshow stuff and i'm a bit stuck on some Bitmap things.
I'm trying to make a Bitmap in a callback where I am presented with an IntPtr to a block of unmanaged memory which contains my pixel data.
I can create the bitmap just fine with one of the Bitmap constructor overloads:-
Bitmap b = new Bitmap(
720,
576,
-2160,
PixelFormat.Format24bppRgb,
(IntPtr)(ip.ToInt32() + 1244160 - 2160)
);
(stride and the IntPtr itself are hacked around a bit because my pixel data scans left-right,bottom-top. but that's not important right now).
When i've done this, I can create and use the bitmap. However, the Bitmap does not copy the data, and as such when I free the memory for the bitmap data (I have to do this - this is unsafe code), the bitmap is corrupt.
Edit: i've also tried the Bitmap.Clone() method- but the new bitmap still references the unmanaged data.
So, i've been looking for a way of copying the pixel data into a managed type so that i can keep a reference to it for as long as I need it, and then let the GC free it. But i'm struggling on how to do this.
I can easily copy the data to a byte[] array (with Marshal.Copy), but then how can I create a bitmap from the byte array?
Or can anyone else see an alternative way of doing this?
thanks
Jon

If you create a new blank Bitmap, you can use LockBits to pin the bitmap data and get a pointer to it. Could you use that with Marshal.Copy to copy the unmanaged data into the bitmap?
