Hi,
If it is the case, then why dont you hide the old form till you complete the new form operation. Once the new form operation completed, then you can make visible your new form true.

Yeah, I guess I could do that, but I want the functionality similar to that when you install a new program, you have to click next->next->... and so on, and the all appear in the same boundaries...

Isn't there a wizard control built into Winforms ?

Ok,
If the old and new form having parent and child relationship then trigger the OnMove event of current new form. Inside that write the code like

this.parent.location=this.location.

Hope this logic will help to you.

My prefered method is to define both forms as controls, put them on the one form, and swap between them.

Is there some tutorial on how to do that? I can't really hit the right keyword on Google...

Christian Graus14-Apr-08 3:55

14-Apr-08 3:55

It's super easy. Create controls instead of forms, make them the same size, ise the visible property to make sure one is always visible and they are never both visible at once.

But, I think for what you want to do, I'd google C# Wizard.

Hi,
I am using DataGridView in C# for windows application. I want to align the column header as ceneter. But I am not able to find any of the property to align the header text of column. It automatically aligned left. You have any solution for this.

If their is not a property already for the control then you will have to resort to either WinAPI, or text padding (adding extra spaces to manually center it).

Windows Service class constructor and OnStart method

Re: Windows Service class constructor and OnStart method

14-Apr-08 3:20

Hello everyone,

Suppose we have a class which is derived from ServiceBase, which provides Windows Service. My question is, what is the best practices that what kind of code to put into constructor of the class, and what kind of code to put into OnStart method of the class?

thanks in advance,
George

Set the service name in the ctor, and do the reset in OnStart. See the link below:

construction order

George_George14-Apr-08 2:51

14-Apr-08 2:51

Hello everyone,

For the following code, it is correct to say that,

1. obj1 will be instialized when .NET Runtime loads class Foo and before any instance is created?

2. obj2 will be created each time we create an instance of Foo, and obj2 will be called before constructor?

My question is whether my understanding (1) and (2) are correct?

class Foo
{
    static private object obj1 = new object();
    private object obj2 = new object();
    public Foo()
    {
    }
}

thanks in advance,
George

Christian Graus14-Apr-08 3:08

14-Apr-08 3:08

Yeah, I believe so. You can write your own classes in place of the objects, and check it for yourself.

No. The obj1 member will be initialised before any member of the Foo class is used, but not necessarily when the assembly is loaded.

George_George wrote:

Yes.

Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.
