I need to insert a special charater into the RichTextBox onclick a button.
But, if i did something like this:
richtextbox1.Text += "©";
The charater © will get added to towards the end of the richtextbox document, not where the IBeam (or the cursor) is pointing to.
How can i insert simple text at the exact position the Ibeam or the cursor is standing inside the richtextbox1 ?
|

|
|
|
I tried this code (onclick insert button)
MessageBox.Show("Top : " + richtextbox1.Cursor.Size.Height);
MessageBox.Show("Left : " + richtextbox1.Cursor.Size.Width);
But this kept giving me:
Top : 24
Left : 24
No matter where the Ibeam/cursor was...
|
|
|
|

that's giving you the size of the cursor, which should be apparent from the name. I'm just looking at the intelisence, might the rtb.SelectionStart property be what you want?

BRILLIANT!
i had no idea rtb had a variable like that
i used this to test it:
int pos = EditingArea.SelectionStart;
MessageBox.Show("Last Line : " + pos);
It always showed the exact position the IBeam/Cursor was at.
Now here comes my second problem, how do u insert the special char at the rtb.SelectionStart?
|
|
|
|
|
I tried to do something like this:
rtb.SelectionStart = rtb.SelectionStart + rtb.SelectionLength;
rtb.Text += "©";
This still doesn't help. Should i use rtb.Text.Insert(); ?

I think im almost there
this code always shows the exact position my IBeam/Cursor is standing on
int pos = rtb.SelectionStart + rtb.SelectionLength;
So, i thought i cud use it to insert the special char using the Text.Insert(); method:
rtb.Text.Insert(pos, "©");
Even this isnt working... why is it so hard to set position of text insertion? Im running out of ideas, can someone please help me out here... i did way too many trial and error and i still haven't found any solution yet...
|
|
|
|
|
1 hour wasted and i finally worked it out
this.richTextBox1.SelectedText = "©";
so simple... wish they had some sort of "how-to" document/wiki for each components such as richtextbox

Hi All,
My C# - VS2005 Application occasionally gives the NullReferenceException when the application is being debugged in Relase mode. It occurs when the program is left idle in debug mode for a long time around 30min.
Any idea why such an error could occur?
Please find the call-stack of the error.

Can anyone tell me if there is a way in C# to do a reverse find?
I have an address that i am parsing say:
124 Modal Street SpringField MO 11222
I start from the back and get the zip and state cause that is more common.
From there, i would just like to grab the city by getting a start index of the space before "SpringField". Can i do that from reverse like this?

You might want to consider using Regular Expressions to parse things like addresses

Use the LastIndexOf method on the string. You can use it to search from the end of the string, or from a specific character index, towards the beginning of the string.

You could use the Split method on the string. It would pass back an array of strings. Then you can look at the last value in the array for zipcode etc.

it's a quite large amount of code: please note that the compiler reports the line number where error occurs (and also the IDE helps you to locate the error).
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

Error1 is telling you that something is declared where it's not allowed to be. The first variables in your code
private string[] tx_data = new string[14];
private string[] rx_data = new string[10];
public int i;
need to be moved so that they're declared inside of your class Form1. This also generates Error2 and Error3, so fix the first one and you fix them all.
On an unrelated note, the arrays tx_data and rx_data are being indexed using parentheses - tx_data(0) = "R" - which is incorrect. They need to be indexed with brackets instead: tx_data[0] = "R"

Hi,
Looking at the xml below, please let me know how to retrieve the data for the value elements.
Thanks
<fxspotrate code="EURUSD">
<values>
<value type="BID">1.3607
<value type="ASK">1.3608
<value type="MID">1.36075
|

Please repost and check the Ignore HTML tags in the message so that the < > show up.
Thanks,

<FXSpotRate code="EURUSD">
<values>
<value type="BID">1.3607</value>
<value type="ASK">1.3608</value>
<value type="MID">1.36075</value>
</values>
</FXSpotRate>
|
|

Something like this should work:
XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
xDoc.InnerXml = @"<FXSpotRate code='EURUSD'><values><value type='BID'>1.3607</value><value type='ASK'>1.3608</value><value type='MID'>1.36075</value></values></FXSpotRate>";
XmlNodeList nodes = xDoc.SelectNodes("/FXSpotRate/values/value");
foreach (XmlNode xn in nodes)
{
//access the node info in here
}
Hope that helps.

Hi ,
I have two Applications , 1 being a Windows Service and the other one is a Windows Application . Both the Applications access an xml file which has to be modified under different scenarios .
I want to avoid concurrent updates /Reads on the xml file from both the application .
Tried using the ReadWriteLock for avoiding concurrent access on the file ,but it doesn't seem to work .
Kindly suggest how this can be achieved .
Thanks in Advance

CORRECTION:
Open the file as FileShare.None[^] (one of the sharing options) - that way nothing else will be able to open the file.
e.g.
FileStream stream = new FileStream("C:\MyFile.txt", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.None);
|
|
|
|
|
AFAIK the ReaderWriterLock is local to a process. You will have to use a named Mutex, that has system scope and thus can be shared between processes.

Tim

Hello everyone,
I have a listview in my Windows Application which I wish to add some functionality to it's item. Since I wish the contextMenu to pop up only when an item is selected rather than anywhere in the area of ListView, I am using the following code:
private void listview1_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)<br />
{<br />
ListViewHitTestInfo info = listView1.HitTest(e.X, e.Y);<br />
<br />
if (info.Item != null)<br />
{<br />
if (e.Button == MouseButtons.Left)<br />
{<br />
if (contextMenuStripListView1 != null)<br />
{<br />
contextMenuStripListView1.Show(listView1, new System.Drawing.Point((e.X + 15), (e.Y + 10)));<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}
everything works fine if I use the LEFT mouse click to pop up the contextMenu as shown in above code. The problem appears once I change the left mouse click to RIGHT mouse click. Since I have another contextMenu which is assigned into the entire Form. I get the local contextMenu (The desired Menu) pop up first, then once I release the mouse I get the second ContextMenu (The undesired Menu) which is assigned to the form pops up. Is there anyway to disable the undesired contextMenu just in the area of listview?
OR should I use a different approach?
Thank you very much for your help and have a great day.

Since you are clearly controlling when-if the context menu shows for the listview I would imagine the same can be done for the form. Do you have a more specific question?

I have a MyDataSet : DataSet class which contains 3 talbes and 2 data relations. This is set to a custom datagrid which can expand to show something like Users -> tickets for user -> details of ticket. I'm sure this is entirely simple, but how do I sort while keeping my dataset as the datasource? When I google they always discard the dataset and do something like:
MyDataSet ds = (MyDataSet) _dgUsers.DataSource;<br />
DataView dv = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;<br />
dv.Sort = "something ASC";<br />
_dgUsers.DataSource = dv;<br />
_dgUsers.DataBind();
This is useless as I've just lost my dataset. I tried modifying the view of the table inside the dataset but it just gets ignored (although it remains set when I sort again):
MyDataSet ds = (MyDataSet) _dgUsers.DataSource;<br />
DataView dv = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;<br />
dv.Sort = "something ASC";<br />
_dgUsers.DataSource = ds;<br />
_dgUsers.DataBind();
How should it be done? When I clone the DataSet it seems to work. Why is that?
