Hi, I want to copy selected text (e.g. from Firefox) to clipboard using hot key.
This is part of my code:
switch (m.Msg)
{
case WM_HOTKEY:
if ((short)m.WParam == hotkey.HotkeyID)
{
Clipboard.Clear();
SendKeys.SendWait("^c");
SendKeys.Flush();
if (Clipboard.ContainsText())
{
string text = Clipboard.GetText(TextDataFormat.UnicodeText);
RichTextBox rtb = new RichTextBox();
rtb.Text = text;
rtb.SelectAll();
rtb.SelectionFont = new Font(new FontFamily("Verdana"), 9.0f, FontStyle.Regular);
Clipboard.SetText(rtb.Rtf, TextDataFormat.Rtf);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Error!");
}
}
break;
default:
base.WndProc(ref m);
break;
}
When I use my application first time it is working fine, but later I recive message "Error".
Can anybody help me solve this problem?
Thanks...

Well the error message your getting looks like the one you have in the messagebox in your else block. Which as every good programmer should no will only happen when your if statement (or any addition else if statements) fails. i.e. Clipboard.ContainsText() is returning false

I'm a bit puzzled about your intentions here.
So you are trying to convert text to formatted text, however when you execute Clipboard.SetText(rtb.Rtf, TextDataFormat.Rtf); the formatted test *replaces* the original text, hence the next time your code runs it doesn't find any text on the clipboard.
If what you want is having both unformatted and formatted text on the clipboard, there are ways to do that with DataObject IIRC; however even then executing your code twice wouldn't make much sense since it would replace the formatted text by the same formatted text.
Maybe all you need to do is remove the MessageBox?
or think about your functional requirements first and tell us about them.

My purpose is copy to clipboard selected text (for example in Firefox, Notepad, etc.) using hot key (for example (Ctrl+Shift+C).
I select text and use my hot key. Text is in clipboard, fine. But only if I use it first time. Later my clipboard is empty.
Why?

Don't know what this means. Is it going ok? Can you post block of your code? Is the timeout on the server it is copying to?

Copy them in smaller blocks of records instead of all at once.

1 lac means one-hundred-thousand. From the Sanskrit lakshaya : most often transliterated into English as "lakh."

Below is some code that validates entries in a datagridview against entries in Active Directory and changes the color of the datagridview cells accordingly. A progressbar indicates how far the process is from finish. If the user then interacts with the form either by dragging one of the datagridview scrollbars or pressing a button, the program becomes unresponsive and the form doesn't refresh any longer until after the process is finished, thereby causing the progressbar to loose its functionality. How can I overcome this glitch? I would also like to implement a cancel button so that the user can cancel the validation process at any moment, but if a button is pressed I experience the problem mentioned above. Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.
private void btnCheck_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
using (DirectoryEntry de = new DirectoryEntry(adPath, adUsername, adPassword)) //))
{
de.Username = Environment.UserName;
de.AuthenticationType = AuthenticationTypes.Secure;
//these are the attributes that will show
string[] attribs = new string[] { "displayName", "mail", "userAccountControl" };
for (int x = 0; x < dgvManager.Rows.Count - 1; x++)
{
ValidateDetails(4, 5, 6, x, de, attribs); //Second in charge
ValidateDetails(7, 8, 9, x, de, attribs); //Branch Manager
ValidateDetails(10, 11, 12, x, de, attribs); //Regional Manager
ValidateDetails(13, 14, 15, x, de, attribs); //General Manager
ValidateDetails(16, 17, 18, x, de, attribs); //Managing Director
progressBar.Value = Convert.ToInt32(Convert.ToDecimal(x) / dgvManager.Rows.Count * 100);
lblPercent.Text = Convert.ToInt32((Convert.ToDecimal(x) / dgvManager.Rows.Count * 100)).ToString() + "%";
this.Refresh();
}//for
}//using
}
private void ValidateDetails(int cell1, int cell2, int cell3, int row, DirectoryEntry de, string[] attribs)
{
DirectorySearcher ds = null;
string y = "", u = "", z = "", sFilter = "";
//use the username as search key
if (dgvManager.Rows[row].Cells[cell3].Value.ToString() != "")
{
sFilter = String.Format(
"(&(objectCategory=person)(sAMAccountName={0}))",
dgvManager.Rows[row].Cells[cell3].Value.ToString().Split(new char[] { '\\' })[1]
);
ds = new DirectorySearcher(de, sFilter, attribs);
using (SearchResultCollection src = ds.FindAll())
{
SearchResult sr = null;

{
sr = src[0];

if (u == "514" | u == "66050") // account disabled
dgvManager.Rows[row].Cells[cell3].Style.BackColor = Color.Orange;

Sounds like you need a background worker[^]
Basically, its another thread but fairly easy to work with. The problem you are getting is that your current code is running on the UI thread thus causing issues with user interaction such as button clicks etc.

You need to use Background worker in this case, which will help you show the progress of process with out any problem.
Here is an sample application

Is there any way to replace DirectUIHWND Class of a Window by Usercontrol. Please help

Hello,
i was trying to simplify my code but i have a problem with the code here:
public void Send(byte a, byte b, byte c)
{
byte[] ab = new byte[3];
ab[0] = a;
ab[1] = b;
ab[2] = c;
ab[3] = a ^ b ^ c;
serialPort1.Open();
serialPort1.Write(ab, 0, 3);
serialPort1.Close();
}
When is use this code there is an error in this line:
ab[3] = a ^ b ^ c;
the error is:
Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'byte'. An explicit conversion exists (are you missing a cast?) C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temporary Projects\WindowsFormsApplication1\Form1.cs 27 21 WindowsFormsApplication1
Is there some one that can help me?

Whenever you use the xor operator (^) (and any of the other operators to) it treats everything as an int  .
Change it to
ab[3] = (byte)(a ^ b ^ c);

Thank you for your fast reply it solved my problem! thank you very much!
|
|
|
|
|
sounds like the resultant value produced is out side byte range and hence overflow that's why its asking for explicit conversion. Make sure the values you passing for a,b and c produce a value within byte range.
|
|
|
|
|
it does, because its sending the result to my serialport, so the value is never bigger then 255.
Thanks for your help!;)
|
|
|
|
|
How exactly would a xor overflow?
|
|
|
|
|
byte[] ab = new byte[3];
ab[0] = a;
ab[1] = b;
ab[2] = c;
ab[3] = (byte)(a ^ b ^ c);

Following on to musefan's point, you have a subtle error in your declaration of the byte array. In this line:
byte[] ab = new byte[3]
You declare ab as a byte array which can only hold three elements. However, in the lines below it, you fill it with four elements; as has been said, this will cause an IndexOutOfRangeException (or something like that) when you assign a value to ab[3]. To fix this problem, change the declaration of ab to
byte[] ab = new byte[4]
This will allow ab to hold four elements, fixing the error
