I hate using Visual Studio, or any IDE for that matter.

They bloat the code, and pull in stupid things which I don't
need.

The only way to have complete control over EVERY NOOK and CRANNY
is to do things manually.

When I used to develop in Java, I never used an IDE. I built
some killer apps (Limewire like Network P2P) using notepad
and command prompt javac. That's it.

Personally, I feel there's nothing that can be done using
an IDE and not raw tools like a text editor and compiler.

In short, LOVE HANDCODING FROM SCRATCH! Blush | :O

wow...!

when i first started C i did it with notepad and tc for a few months , and then when i learnt java i did it with javac for about a month but i would really take a hell lot of time and make a good amount of syntax errors! Dead | X|

so i got IDE's a little later!

Hi...

I want to change the 'Opacity' property of my form when i move my form using mouse from one place to another while application is running. I want same effect as we can see when we get an exception while debugging any application in VS2005. We get one form & if we try to move that form its opacity chnges & that form becomes normal when we stop moving that form.

My application is a MDI application & i want to change the Opacity of child Form.

Thank & Regards,

Vinay

Quoted from MSDN -Click here to read the article[^]-

"Note The MDI child form you create in this step is a standard Windows Form. As such, it has an Opacity property, which allows you to control the transparency of the form. However, the Opacity property was designed for top-level windows. Do not use it with MDI child forms, as painting problems can occur."

In the PrintDocument.PrintPage event the PrintPageEventHandler has a member called Graphics that you can use to draw the table and the text.

PS.
Did you take a look at the printing section of C# articles[^]?

C# - MS ACCESS - IE/FireFox

Hai, Currently I'm developing a Virtual Library and I decide to use C#.NET, MS Access for the database, and IE or FireFox for the data viewer.

Another thing is, I DON'T want to use any Database Servers (IIS) and ASP.NET.

Well, can someone give a direction?
thanks for your help.

Enjoy It!

Why have you selected a browser as data viewer if you don't want to use a web interface?

To be able to apply theme easily. so, the App is like an Offline website. Maybe the usage of C#.NET to implement it is not right...

the example of the application that I want is:
like MSDN from VS and Encarta from MSN.
MSDN and Encarta runs on a browser but they have a database structure for the data and also the interface is Web like and MSDN and Encarta use no DB server.

Well, that's what I mean. and don't be confused.
Thx

Enjoy It!

You don't need to use a database server to use a web interface. IIS is a web server, not a database server.

If you want a dynamic web server instead of IIS, take a look at Cassini.

That's good, because IIS isn't a database server. Poke tongue | ;-P

Well, sorry my mistake IIS is a web server. And in my first post, I meant it too. So, I dont want any servers including Web Server.

and for my example of Encarta, I bought Encarta CDs, install it, that's it. I can browse (offline-ly of course) and search data in it.

So I guess, Encarta must have used a database to store its data and Encarta uses no Web Servers because when I installed it, I didn't configure or install any Web Servers.

Well, it's confusing. Wink | ;)

Enjoy It!

Not really.
