The package what I work is very big program suite. so the package have some editions : Home, Basic, Pro Editions.
What i want is that when user installs this package and enters SN, installer choose one edition which is selected by user and install.
But The tool I'm using is Advanced Installer. but this tool doesn't support what i want.
Are there any tools?
If you know about the tool what i want, please tell me.

I'd recommend NSIS, it's a very powerful installer and use it whenever I need to create an installer.
There is a bit of a learning curve to it but once you've learnt it you won't regret it.

I have a main form which instantiated with this command like everybody does:
Application.Run(new pdMainForm());
Problem is I want to access one of its control properties from another form but since it does not provide any instance name I couldn't find the proper way to get one of the form's control properties.
How can I access pdMainForm's control properties from another form?
Thanks in advance.

I code in VB.Net, and I don't typically use Application.Run() for forms the way you showed in your example. We would do something like pdMainForm.Show(), but I think I understand the concept and what you need to do is create a pointer for your main form before you start running it. So you would declare a variable with the DataType of your form's class first. Then you can run it and later you can still access it's properties the way you want to, so something like this I'm guessing:
Dim myMainForm as New pdMainForm<br />
Application.Run(myMainForm)<br />
<br />
Dim mySecondForm as New pdMainForm<br />
mySecondForm.Text = myMainForm.Text<br />
Application.Run(mySecondForm)
If this isn't what you were looking for, perhaps you could show us some more of your code and explain a bit more.
Hope this helps.

Try understanding and working with delegates or another approach is to pass current form's reference to other form from which your trying to control form.

Hi,
I'm experiencing a problem when printing text using Graphics.DrawString(). The horizontal character spacing appears inconsistent for each line of text, depending on the length of the string printed. It's pretty hard to explain what exactly is happening, but for instance, when printing:
Info::Defining 'FORCEBUILD' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDGLOBALDATA' as 'True'
Info::Defining 'BUILDTRACKINSTANCES' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDTRACKDYNAMICOBJECTS' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDTRACKSTATICOBJECTS' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDPAKFILES' as 'True'
Info::Defining 'BUILDGUIFILES' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDAICHARACTERSKINS' as 'False'
Info::Defining 'BUILDDRIVERCHARACTERSKINS' as 'False'
The first column of ' characters after Defining are aligned differently horizontally.
This is using the controls standard font MS San Serif 8.25, with all the system default text rendering settings.
I've tried changing the TextRenderingHint in the Graphics object, and found that TextRenderingHint.SingleBitPerPixel gives a consistent alignment, but looks awful, where the default seems to be TextRenderingHint.SingleBitPerPixelGridFit, (although TextRenderingHint.AntiAliasGridFit looks the same to me), giving the mis-aligned text.
[EDIT: In addition to this issue, when printing multi line text as above, the vertical spacing for each line of text is not consistent, ie. the vertical distance between each line of text is not the same number of pixels, some are 12 and some are 13 pixels, suggesting underlying floating point math.]
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers,
Andy.

There's a mouse leave event, or you can capture the mouse and detect from it's move event when it left your form.

I have a problem in running application in remote desktop. In remote desktop 'Display' tab if i set color option as 'High color (16 bit)' my application is giving an error message like "Will not be able to display color images with these settings". So we have set 'True color (24 bit)' option. But in this case the application is working fine in some machines. In some machines the options gets changed automatically to 'Medium (16 bit)' and the application shows the same error message. OS used is Windows XP in all the machines.
Can somebody help me in solving this issue?

Hi All,
Is there any way of converting the windows form design to pdf format. The pdf format can contain only the text of each and every control in the form. I have explained the scenario more briefly in the following section :
I have a windows form(partially big) where the user will enter the details for each and every field. On clicking of the print button i should transfer the form design view to the pdf file and shd open that pdf file with the given data.
Is there any way to acheive this directly or indirectly.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
Mani.

You can just download a printer driver that spits out PDFs.

Hi Graus,

I'm not sure how to be more clear. It's possible to download a printer driver, from the web, which, when you print, will create a pdf of the printed document.

Your other option is to buy a PDF library and get the form to render to a bitmap ( the form class has a method for this ). But that will only render the visible area, if the form has any scrollable sections. Then you can turn the bitmap into a PDF.

I have tried ur option of transferring the form to bitmao and what you said is right it copies only the visible portion of the form. I need to copy the entire form. How this can be done.

Mani.
First have the WILL then u WILL

If you need to draw the form, you probably need to scroll it and stitch it together. The usual way tho, is to implimnet printing code and write the code to represent all your data as you see fit.
