There are only two ways that I can think of to do what you require.
1). Regrettably for you, it means creating a custom (I am assuming that the cell type is TextBox) DataGridViewTextBoxCell and DataGridViewTextBoxColumn and simply adding a BorderColor property then overriding the PaintBorder or Paint methods to use this new property.
2). Create a custom DataGridView add the BorderColor as above (probably better called 'CellBorderColor' since we are subclassing the whole grid) and overriding the OnCellPainting eventhandler to use the color property.
Sorry not to be of more help.

I tried your 2 ways but the performance is very slow that to painting at cell by level cannot be done if cellpainting event is used beceause if boder color for two or three cell is selected at runtime then cell painting event ovverides other two colors and paint only the last color.So for this i used arrays and tried but the performance is too slow not only that it is not working properly if scrool bar is there .
I may be missing some thing please correct me if iam wrong anywhere.
I will post the code that i have did

Hi All
I am really struggeling with DateTime Formats.
I have an incoming table of data coming in.It is constantly busy.
I am writing a monitor system on this table.So what I want to do is retrieve the last entries dateTime.
SELECT TOP(1) DateTime FROM TABLE
ORDER BY DateTime DESC.
What I want to know is:
How do I determine if the DateTime I received is older than 1 Hour from DateTime.Now
AND Ex
How do I determine if the DateTime I received is older than 5 Minutes from DateTime.Now
OR EX
How do I determine if the DateTime I received is older than 1Hour.5 Minutes from DateTime.Now
Thanks a million in advanced

it is not clear whether you want an SQL or a VB.NET approach.
Maybe this article[^] gets you going.

Its very simple
Use DateDiff Function
First Argument is the Difference Interval
See the DateInterval enumeration(has hours, seconds etc.)
The Second Argument is the date you retrieve
The Third Argument is the current date(Date.Now)
The code will be like
Dim hours As Long = DateDiff(DateInterval.Hour, retrievedDate, Date.Now)
|
|
|
|
|
You can also subtract dates:
If (RetrievedDate.Subtract(Now).TotalHours >= 1) Then
End If

Hi, dear all,
I have an existing VB6 project installed in my computer, I have its source codes. Now I will create another project based on it.
The strange thing is that there is a reference which is always pointed to the previous project, all others are ok after modification, only this one doesn't work. I open the .vbp file, modify the path mannually, save it. but when I open the project, it still points to previous project path, I use browse button in reference dialog to relocate it, it still not change.
What should I do? If I remove the prevois project, I am afraid of that the new project won't work since that file is missing.
Thanks!

|

I used to move project between machines without any problem.
Edit the vbp files to change the paths using notepad, make sure you also change any of the controls locations to the correct depth, i used to find occasionally had one too many ../../../ depending on which machine i was on.
|
|

|

Dave,
Thanks! Yes, I open the .vbp in notepad, the strange thing is that in .vbp file the path is in current project, but when I open the project from VB6, and click "Reference", that reference's path is pointing to previous project again. If I save the project, and open .vbp file, the refernece path is changed back to previous project.
There are more than 10 reference, all others are ok, only this one doesn't work.
Did you encounter this issue before?
|
|
|
|
|
To be honest its been that long since i went near vb6, i can't remember..........hopefully never need to go near it again.
|
|
|
|
|
I also wish this is the last project in VB6. Thanks!
|
|

Why don't you copy the code to new files in a new project? (Know it is a boring way. But might help you if you lack time)

Hi I'm currently developing graphics manipulation program with GDI+ under Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate RC - the language is Visual Basic. I'm writing the program on my laptop and I test it on my desktop PC, my desktop PC is:
OS: Windows Xp SP2
.NET Framework 3.5 SP1
CPU: 1.8GHz P4 Northwood
RAM 1GB
My Laptop is:
TravelMate 5720G
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
.NET Framework 4
The application I'm developing uses GDI+ for all graphics manipulations. My project framework is .NET 3.5 SP1. The compiled executable used to work fine on my old desktop PC, but today I tried to start it and windows XP gave me the following error:
'(myprogram)has encountered a problem and needs to close. Send Error Report/Don't send'
The program I'm developing is for educational purposes in educational centre near my town and
there teachers have only two PC with windows vista and others run on XP, so its very important for me to get my app working on XP.
Thank you in advance.

that basically tells me you did not meticulously provide error handling in your app.
You need to add some try-catch constructs, where an exception when caught also gets displayed, say using MessageBox.Show(exception.ToString())
The first place to insert such try-catch construct is in your very first code (so it covers everything that gets executed on the main thread from there), so go search for file program.vb

Are you trying to run a 'release' compile?
If so, uninstall and install a 'debug' compile - you should get a more meaningful error message concerning an unhandled error.

is that Excel screenshot just an example of the kind of dialog, or is it actually Excel having a problem?
you do know Office automation is tricky, and particular to each and every version of Office? you cannot assume a solution that automates Office 2003 to also work on Office 2007 or 2010, they are not compatible.
please try and provide more detailed and more accurate information, so somebody can provide specific help.

In which case, I presume the application is crashing immediately on starting. Is this the case?

The screenshot I provided are just example of the kind of error dialog I get. And yes the application crashes right on the startup.

In that case, I suggest you follow Luc Pattyn's original suggestion of using a try/catch block, and provide the error message so people can have a look at it.

This is all code that resides inside Form_Load event:
imgMain.AllowDrop = True 'picture box control
strDefDir = My.Computer.FileSystem.CurrentDirectory
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.DoubleBuffer, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.UserPaint, True)
Me.SetStyle(ControlStyles.AllPaintingInWmPaint, True)
Me.UpdateStyles()
penRegionPen = New Pen(Brushes.Black, intCropPenSize)
penMyPen = New Pen(Brushes.Lime, intCropPenSize)
penMyPen.DashStyle = DashStyle.Solid
penMyPen.Width = 1
I've put this iside 'Try.. End Try' statement but the problem still exist and it gives me this error window(this time i put the original error window, sorry for showing it so late, I didn't thought that the problem might be so serious):
http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=jmddjtvzzjm[^]
And this error is occuring only on my Win XP machine, on my Win 7 laptop there is no problems at all.
This is all references that my project uses:
Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.VS
System
System.Core
System.Data
System.Data.DataSetExtensions
System.Deployment
System.Drawing
System.Windows.Forms
System.Xml
System.Xml.Linq
Tommorow I'm going to test my applications on other XP machines, I hope that the problem is in my PC and not in the application...

Look for your program.vb file and give that one a try-catch, as I said earlier. It will catch many more potential problems as a safety net, not as a remedy, and probably tell you what your current problem is.

Oh gosh I finally solved the problem it is in this reference:
Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.VS
I was using print to file option of the PrintForm dialog in Visual basic power packs
when I remove that reference everything start working fine again and now I'll made it before the deadline, thank you for all advices

Still, the issue is your program should have told you what was the problem, by testing return values on system calls that don't throw exceptions, and reporting exceptions when they occur, and not by dying silently.
