So, in order to allow in place editing of object properties through a Combobox, I need to implement my own Combobox. What would be the best way to do this? I'm thinking of using a TextBox and a ListBox, and letting the ListBox do most of the work. Any suggestions on other ways?

Why not to use a PropertyGrid?
Best regards,

Or...you could inherit from a combobox and then edit the events and properties. Then to further assist you can override the WndProc function with WinAPI commands.

Programatically converting docx to PDF without office 2007 being installed.

3rd party control?

.net windows application under .net framework 3.0 or 3.5. Input is .docx file and should convert to .pdf file.
Microsoft has given SaveAsPDFandXPS.exe' word addin, this is giving SaveAs option as .pdf file.
By making use of this exe the below code is converting to PDF,
// Specifying the format in which you want the output file
object format = Word.WdSaveFormat.wdFormatPDF;
//Changing the format of the document and save them into Destination Directory
newApp.ActiveDocument.SaveAs2000(ref Target, ref format,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown,
ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
// for closing the application
newApp.Quit(ref Unknown, ref Unknown, ref Unknown);
This is done by referenceing the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll. Without any reference of office dll's, is it possible to convert to PDF?
Thanks and Regards,

Not of you need to reference the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll. As I said, if you don't want to install word then it will probably have to be a 3rd party control.

Excuse me for asking before exhausting all options, but I'm having a bit of a brain cramp. I would like to have a combobox bound to a list of objects, with the property Name as a DisplayMember. I now would also like the user to be able to edit the Name property directly, in the combo box. However, it doesn't look like the combobox is having any of this.

 Don't know what that means. If I understand your desired behavior the combobox should work for that.

I cannot access the selected item, via Items[SelectedIndex] while editing the text, as the selected index is immediately set to -1 when editing the text. My desired behaviour is to change the text in the texbox part of the Combobox, by typing different text, and have that change affected on the DisplayMember property of the currently selected object. I.e. my combo reflects a list of Section object names; I want to be able to change the name of the selected Session without using any other control.

Of course it is because you don't have an item in the list selected if you typed in something new.

Then you need to add the new item to your Data that is used as the DataSource and refresh the controls binding.

Hi!
I have a C#/.Net2.0 software, that calculates some values in thread A, which is not the thread serving the forms.
Those values should be displayed by a progressBar using a "set"-method using "Invoke".
When running the software under Vista the Bar shows the values as it should.
When running under XP the values are calculated and passed to the progressBar´s value-property, but not displayed in the form.
Is there a difference between XP and Vista that has to be taken in mind in order to make the software display the progressBar´s value?
Thanx for help!

HI Guys,
I am trying to override the existing Save button in Word 2007.
Currently my code here doesn't seem to work, but it works when I add a new control on my command bar.
_wordApp.CommandBars["Standard"].Controls["&Save"].Visible = false;
this line doesn't work, it still appears in Word.
David.

In a seperate Window application my code is working properly but when i integrate that code in my window service in gives me COMException like
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {9BA05972-F6A8-11CF-A442-00A0C90A8F39} failed due to the following error: 8007000e.
Is there any solution for this kind of error????

Hi, first of all just want to say that this site is really helpful, thanks 
Well my question is in the title. I have a Windows form whose background is an image with gradient colour. In this form I have a tabControl. I want the background of the tab pages to look the same as the background of the form. But since the tabControl does not cover the whole form and the background image is gradient, simply adding the background image that I used for the form, as the background image for the tab page will not work, the colours will be different etc. Is there any way to make the tab page totally transparent, such as you can see the background of the form while in the tab page?
I have looked around the internet and there doesn't seem to be possible
Any help is much appreciated, thanks.
Edit: By the way im using C#

It will be difficult for the consistency you are looking for because the tabcontrol takes part in the visual styles of the OS. To get what you are asking you might have to create your own tabcontrol (or modify an already custom tabcontrol (it will be easier to find then transparent tabpages)). I suggest googling or codeprojecting for a custom tabcontrol.

how can i read a file another process in reading/ writing.

If another process is reading/writing to the file, the file may be locked and can't be altered except by the calling thread.
