Its the EnableVisualStyles line that may be causing it. This tell the app to use the systems theme styles render instead of the standard one. This changes stuff like font rendering.
What version of Visual Studio are you using?
|
|
|
|
|
I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition.
Is there a way how I can make sure that the style renderer that is used on runtime is the same as the one used in the form designer?

When Dave said EnableVisualStyles is what triggers the theme-based renderer, doesn't that suggest you to try and run your code without that statement, and see what gives?

Ok, sorry, should have mentioned that I tried that already. But when I remove the EnableVisualStyles statement, the whole XP-style disappears (of course  ). It seems to me that the EnableVisualStyles statement is correct, as I want to use the systems theme.
The form is during run-time and in the form designer almost identical (i.e. using XP style), the only little difference is that the text on labels and buttons is moved about 1 or 2 pixels, which results in some cases in two lines of text in stead of one, as the text doesn't fit on one line anymore. Of course I could make the labels and buttons a few pixels larger. It's just that I don't like the fact that there is a differce between the form in the designer and in run-time. Someting must cause the difference...
Furthermore, when I start the form by setting the MainForm as Startup form in the project properties, and enabling XP visual styles, the form shows correctly.
So any help / suggenstions are welcome!

OK, I don't know the solution; I tend to make my controls slightly wider to avoid such issues.
BTW: what will happen if you ever need to internationalize your Form?

Someone else any suggestions???

There is a relatively well known problem in this context, caused by the differences in the way that GDI and GDI+ do their rendering which may explain your problem.
This[^] explains it and has a demo project.
There is a better explanation that I cannot locate at the moment. Some time ago I posted it on CP for another member. At that time I found it by Googling gdi v gdi+, which is where I got the link above. If you have more patience than I, give it a try.

Ok, I finally found the solution. If I set the buttons and labels 'FlatStyle' property to 'Sytem' in stead of 'Standard', the form shows up correctly in run-time.
However, I'm still wondering why there is a difference between setting EnableVisualStyles in code (showing the text different then in the designer) and setting 'Enable XP Visual styles' in the project properties (showing the text the same as in the designer)...

hi friends,
i am facing a problem like we i ping a node i got following response
CAREFULLY see PING STATS
Pinging 10.10.34.45 with 32 bytes of data:
Destination Host Unreachable
Destination Host Unreachable
Destination Host Unreachable
Destination Host Unreachable
Ping statistics for 10.10.34.45:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
if node is not reachable how i am getting received packet.... and 0% loss
plz help me solve this.. 
Thanx for your valuable help

The received packet that it's talking about is the one coming back from the router explaining that there is no route to the destination network. No, it's not the original ping packet, but a valid pakcet did come back, so, yes, it's a "successful" receipt. If not packet had come back at all, that's the "Lost" packet.
|
|
|
|
|
thanx for reply ..
but how can i solve this
actually i hav written a script to ping 3000 node and depending on their error level it will find out which is unmanaged
but due to above problem my script logic is not working ..
i want that if node is not reachable no packet should be receive ...
plz suggest...
thanx

Standard Question #2: What does the code look like that is doing the pings?

Hi,
if the PING utility, with all its options, does not satisfy your needs, you may have to create your own; you then could have a look at the System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping class

hi sir
i am using following code for encrypt my textbox value and save it in encrypted form to our database.
Public function encrp(ByVal enc As String) As String
Dim ctr As Byte() = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(enc)
Dim c As String = System.Convert.ToBase64String(ctr)
Return c
End function
and following code for decrypt the value for showing in textbox
Public function decryp(ByVal c As String) As String
Dim b1 As Byte() = System.Convert.FromBase64String(c)
Dim f As String = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(b1)
Return f
End function
but sir i am unable to decrypt my dataset with the help of this function to show the record in datagridview.so please help me for decrypt the dataset.
sir reply please.

hi sir,
this code not run in window application sir simple code send me.
please sir..
|
|
|
|

Well, I downloaded the code from that article, it compiled and yeah it is a Windows Forms Application. You have to go through the complete article to understand how to implement paging in DataGridView.
Good Luck!!

You call converting a string to Base64 encrypted? That's not encrypted at all.
The code is correct as far as I can see. You're going to have to double-check what you're passing into each method and what you're getting back.
|
|
|
|
|
hi sir ,
send code in decrypted dataset in database
please sir
|
|
|
|
|
No, I'm not giving you any code.
You've already got the code that does the job. For some reason, you've either not following what youre passing into the encryption/decryption methods or you're not storing or retrieving the data from the database properly.

I need Readonly ComboBox in vb.net windows application, for this requirement i used to use textbox & combobox together in the same place.
TextBox Properties
ReadOnly=True
TabStop=False
ComboBox Properties
AutoCompleteMode=SuggestAppend
AutoCompleteSource=ListItems
TabStop=True
in ADD/EDIT events set ComboBox Enabled=True, if the event is done ComboBox Enabled=False
this is my code
Private Sub ComboBox1_GotFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Handles ComboBox1.GotFocus
TextBox1.Visible = False
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox1_LostFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Handles ComboBox1.LostFocus
TextBox1.Visible = True
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
TextBox1.Text = ComboBox1.SelectedItem().ToString
End Sub
in design TextBox on top of the ComboBox, can see only the ComboBox Button.
Please give me any simple solution for this....

Your logic, at a form level, seems wrong. When you display the dialog you should know if CRUD is required at which point you display a combo so the user can edit the data. If the user is opening the form as RO then either disable the combo or display a textbox with the required value.
I cheat, if the user does not have CRUD rights on the form/data I make the save button invisible/disabled. The user can do what they like, just can't save the results.
