Hi.
Does anyone know how can I make a control work without recieving the focus?
The thing is that I'm trying to simulate a kyboard (on a UserControl) which is added to a form. Whenevet a key is clicked, I use the SendKeys.SendWait method to simulate a keystroke. In order to process the simulated keystroke, the recieving form should be in focus. To achieve this, I use the SetFocus function (from User32.dll) with the handler of the recieving form. So far so good - it all works fine except for the slight occasional control bar flicker when changing the focus.
So - is there a way to avoid all that focus transfer?

Hi,

have a look to my example:

I created a windows-application with a form
and one 'TreeView'-component named treeView1 in my code.
The only code is written within the Load-event of the form:

        <br />
        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)<br />
        {<br />
            ContextMenu myRootContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
            myRootContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Root");<br />
<br />
            ContextMenu myChild1ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
            myChild1ContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Child 1");<br />
            ContextMenu myChild2ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
            myChild2ContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Child 2");<br />
<br />
<br />
            TreeNode rootTreeNode = new TreeNode("Root");<br />
            rootTreeNode.ContextMenu = myRootContextMenu;<br />
            rootTreeNode.Nodes.Add("First Node");<br />
            rootTreeNode.Nodes[0].ContextMenu = myChild1ContextMenu;<br />
            rootTreeNode.Nodes.Add("Second Node");<br />
            rootTreeNode.Nodes[1].ContextMenu = myChild2ContextMenu;<br />
<br />
            treeView1.Nodes.Add(rootTreeNode);<br />
        }<br />

I created one root treenode 'rootTreeNode'
TreeNode rootTreeNode = new TreeNode("Root");

and
added two child nodes:

rootTreeNode.Nodes.Add("First Node");<br />
rootTreeNode.Nodes.Add("Second Node");

After that, I added this treenode to the TreeView 'treeView1'
of the Form.
treeView1.Nodes.Add(rootTreeNode);

Now we come to the context-menues:
I created one root context-menu, and gave it a description

ContextMenu myRootContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
myRootContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Root");

and with the property 'ContextMenu' of the rootTreeNode

rootTreeNode.ContextMenu = myRootContextMenu;

I made the assignment.

The context-menues for the child nodes are

ContextMenu myChild1ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
myChild1ContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Child 1");<br />
ContextMenu myChild2ContextMenu = new ContextMenu();<br />
myChild2ContextMenu.MenuItems.Add("Edit Child 2");

and assigned in the same way.

Hope this helps a little bit

exchange data between db2 (as400) and ms sql server

Db2 is running on as400. We want to have a copy of the data on a windows server with ms sql server.
a. Is there an odbc driver for db2 so we can query db2 from within ms sql server?
b. More in general: how can we copy data from db2 to ms sql server and maybe automate this?
c. what else do we need to know or is there some guide available online.

There are a few ODBC drivers available for DB2. Google it up! As for copy data between DB2 and SQL Server. Is like a replication system or a one time only process? Do you want to transfer bulk volumes of data or small amounts of it?

I dont know much about the performance aspects of it but if you had ODBC drivers for DB2, couldn't you just query the data from DB2 and insert it into SQL Server and vice versa?

Limit the number of simultaneous logins

In a smart client application such as TaskVision
http://www.windowsforms.net/TaskVision/[^]
how does one implement single login?

In the current implementation, the application allows any number of logins using the same username and password. Could you please suggest how it can be modified to prevent login if there is a user already logged in with the same username and password? Or better still, to limit the number of simultaneous logins to a predefined number?

Keeping a login count in the database could be a solution, but is there a reliable way to know when a user stops using the program?

Can the constraint be defined in the stored procedure or in the web service(AuthService)?

Thanks.

i think u can use app.config file to add tag which hold the value of maximum user with same userID and password and if ur storing logged user info in DB then u can
check the user limit at the time of starting ur application.

problem with forms' invocation

kumar.bs21-Nov-06 22:01

21-Nov-06 22:01

I have two forms f1 and f2.

I have two buttons on f1, from button1 i am invoking f2 using the object of f2 and from button2 i am showing a simple message box.

My problem is, when i open f2 by cliking button1 and click on button2 to show message, when the message box is active i am unable to select f2, its understandable why f1 is not getting selected (message box is modal window), but why f2 is also not selectable?

I used another method to invoke f2, using threading concept, created new thread and invoked f2 in new thread in button1 click event. Now, i am able to select f2 even when message box is active. But when f1 is closed f2 should also get disposed?

Any ideas?

Thanks
Kumar

I think you should create your own messagebox window (new form) and open that. I cannot think of another approach...

I want lightshow to work by sound input from soundcard. I don't know how can I create a function which would return current output power on the requested frequency(low,mid,high...).

I tried to do this with DirectX.DirectSound, but it seems to me too complicated.
So if anyone have a suggestion, i would be very grateful.;)
