I'm using the Graphics.DrawString method to draw a string on a graphics context that has a transformation applied to it. Problem is, although the transformation gets the string to the proper location, it also scales the font size to something ridiculously large.
I know that you can force the Graphics methods to not scale line width if you create a Pen of width 0. Is there a similar way to prevent font size from being scaled?
(Not sure if this makes a difference, but the graphics context I'm drawing to is attached to a Bitmap object.)

If you don't want to resize the text, do you really want to use a transformation? Why not just change the coordinates where you draw the text?
Despite everything, the person most likely to be fooling you next is yourself.

I have to check, the transformation doesn't involve scale does it? No?
Ok, the simplest method I can think of is to draw the string to a temporary buffer and the draw this buffer with the transformations you want.

Hi,
I am trying to open a large xml file into an xml document as follows:
string xmlFilePath = "c:\\myXMLfile.xml";
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(xmlFilePath);
I get the following error on doc.Load(xmlFilePath);
the error is:
{"' ', hexadecimal value 0x1E, is an invalid character. Line 1116997, position 1."}
Question:
How do I find this error in the xml file and how do I correct it.
Note that this is a large file of 300 MB.
Thanks

Hi,
From MSDN:
XmlDocument..::.Load Method[^]
If you want validation to occur, you can create a validating XmlReader instance by using the XmlReaderSettings class and the Create method. For more information, see Validating XML Data with XmlReader.
The Load method always preserves significant white space. The PreserveWhitespace property determines whether or not insignificant white space, that is white space in element content, is preserved. The default is false; white space in element content is not preserved.

If the file weren't so large I'd open it in Notepad to fix it.
I would hesitate to write a program that blindly replaces the character(s) without further investigation.
You could write a simple console program to read each line, keeping count, and display the 1116997th line (or all lines that contain invalid characters).
Fixing the problem may be more difficult. Ideally, once you know what's going on, you can provide that information to whoever creates the file and tell them that their process is buggy and they can fix it on their end (I've had to do that).

Hi,
I have written a small reporting application which makes use of Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll and OFFICE.dll
The application retrieves data from a database and creates excel charts based on the data. It runs fine on my development machine where I have got Ms Office installed. The problem is that it needs to run on a DB Server so that it can execute as part of an SSIS package, however company policies do not permit the installation of MS Office on the servers.
I have got the dll's and included it in the bin folder of my project and then referenced them by adding reference and then browsing to the folder where they are located, instead of adding a COM reference in Visual Studio, however it still does not work.
I have read on other forums that you must have Office installed for it to work or does somebody here possibly have a solution 
Kind Regards,
Robert

No, if you want to use their dlls then it must be installed.
I'm pretty sure (could be wrong though) that MS do not give permission for those dlls to be redistributed, so by doing so you may be breaking the law.

No. Office must be installed.

Well, if the company wants to use the functionality you built, then they have no real choice but to install Office on the server. No reason not to allow Office to be installed on the server.

Except that Microsoft strongly advise against using Office automation server-side. Look here[^] for details.

Hmmmm, some good points, especially that one about redistributing the dll's.
Never thought about that...
Thanks Paul for the link, Im sure I have come across it in the past too, when beginning with the app.
Maybe putting everything in one SSIS package, although more convenient, is not the best direction...

You need to add a reference to the System.Data.Entity assembly.

Google can help you with that
Google: "System.Data.Linq.DataLoadOptions assembly"[^]
The first result tells you what assembly reference is needed.

add a reference to System.Data.Linq in your project and add the same to your using statements.

DataLoadOptions is a class in the System.data.Linq namespace that has replaced DataShape.
Add the System.Data.Linq reference to your project.
Add a using statement to the top of your class.
using System.Data.Linq;
then create an instance of the DataLoadOptions class:
DataLoadOptions dlOptions = new DataLoadOptions();
