I have an MDI project with, so far, 5 MDI child forms. One menu item on the main form, mnuWindows, is set as the MdiWindowListItem on the MenuStrip. Here's the puzzling behaviour.
Whenever one particular MDI child form, F_Import, is open, the form changes how the MdiWindowListItem drop down menu works. It doesn't matter which of the other 4 child forms are open or may be the active child, when I click on the MdiWindowListItem menu, F_Import immediately receives the focus and is checked on the drop down menu. Selecting another child from the menu gives that child the focus, but, opening the MdiWindowListItem drop down menu immediately places the focus back on F_Import.
When F_Import is not open, the MdiWindowListItem drop down menu acts as expected. When the drop down menu is opened, the child form currently having the focus is also the form checked on the menu.
I have not been able to identify any form or menustrip property that affects this errant behaviour. Nor has a search on the Internet revealed any related information. Anyone run into this issue before?

The errant behaviour stopped when I removed the word "Import" from the form Name property.

Hi,
I have writen my own front-end for a carPC project and for a final touch I thought I would have an option to wirelessly update the MP3 shared folder on my PC when I am in the driveway.
Right, what I have done is set my home PC to a static IP address of '192.168.0.136' and a shared folder called 'mp3'
Here is a small bit of code demonstating what I want to do...
strHubComputerIP = "192.168.0.136"
strHubComputerMp3Folder = "mp3"
strRemoteDirectory = New DirectoryInfo("\\" & strHubComputerIP & "\" & strHubComputerMp3Folder & "\")
If strRemoteDirectory.Exists Then............
this works fine, but if I change the IP address to "192.168.0.135" or the 'hub' computer is off (the IP address can't be seen), the computer hangs for 2 minutes.
For example, if I pull into my drive and want to update, but my home PC is off, I don't want the computer in the car to hang. I want it to tell me that the IP address isn't found.
Hope someone can help, I've been working on my front-end for a year now as I've been saving up for the hardware. This is the last bit I need to sort out, then I can build the machine

Just incase anyone was going to answer this question, I have found a way of doing it.
Instead of using IP address, I use 'computer name'
strHubComputerName = "main-computer"
strHubComputerMp3Folder = "mp3"
strRemoteDirectory = New DirectoryInfo("\\" & strHubComputerName & "\" & strHubComputerMp3Folder & "\")
If strRemoteDirectory.Exists Then............
This only hangs for 2 seconds if the 'folder' isn't found. This is far better.

Try posting some code, your post is rather vague.

Nice code, but it does not necessarily answer the OP's question as to why they are getting a time out...

Odds are you have a network connection or server configuration issue. Hard to say, even if I saw the code, just because the server doesn't work for me, doesn't mean it shouldn't work for you.

I am using datagridview in my form and it is bound to a datatable.I have a add button on the form which added a new row in the datatable.Now what I want is that when user click on the add button it should the cursor should go to the new added row.
For example if there are more than 20 items in the grid view and user click add button then it will be added at the last but it does not scroll to the last row.
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

Isn't there a SetFocus method you can apply on the currently selected row? If so, you get the index of the newly added row and do a SetFocus on it.

Thanks for reply.It does get the focus on the last row but if the last row is now visible in the gridview then the gridview should scroll to the focused row.

I am using Replace function to replace the occurance of a double Quote (") in a string. But it shows me error. Can anyone suggest how to achieve that. The code i am using is as given :
DocStr = Replace(DocStr, """, "``", 0, , )
Here I want to replace the " with ``.
Please Help. Thanks in advance.

As oppose to using """ try using the character code(34). As """ causes a problem (i presume) as " is part of the syntax syntax.
e.g.
docstr = replace(docstr,chrw(34),"``",0,,)

You use double quotation marks to put a quotation mark in a string:
DocStr = Replace(DocStr, """", "``", 0, , )
But why are you replacing the quotation marks with something that looks similar to a quotation mark? I seems like you are trying to circumvent some characters because you don't know how to handle them correctly.
Experience is the sum of all the mistakes you have done.

Yes I want to replace the double quotes from a string that I have retrieved. How can i replace the double quotes from a string using the replace() function.
Please Help.

In the solution explorer click on the form and then click it again (like windows explorer) so that you can rename it. When You rename the file it should automatically rename the form class itself. Compile after each rename to ensure that the application still compiles. If the application doesn't compile then the form renaming process won't work properly.
