It means you need to code up the C# equivalent.

and wpf concept.
thanks in adv..

There is a Component for skins, but it's a comercial product, but it's not expensive 
The Name is "IrisSkin" from sunisoft, it's a really good component for use own skins.
Hope i could help you a bit.
|
|
|
|
|
But it is not for free. Is there any tool like that for free. I searchd on google but unable to find that.
|
|
|
|

I used to use IrisSkin, but the last time I tried, I ran into some problems. When using it in VS 2008, it turned out that the components flicker.
I notified Sunisoft, they said that they were able to reproduce the problem, but they never came back with a solution.
I haven't used the component since then, and I'm a little p'd off that they don't fix the problem seeing that I paid good money for the component.

I never had problem with flickering, i'm using it in VS 2008 too... the component works without any cause.
Did you check for updates? Maybe the developer have fixed the problem in a newer version of IrisSkin but haven't given feedback to you.
Which way the components flickers? Is it flickering everytime or only on certain Layout events?

I didn't really remember, but I went back and had a look at my email to Sunisoft.
Seems that the skinned components (groupboxes, comboboxes, textboxes and labels) flickers when you move the mouse over them, the form itself is ok, no problem there.
I must be using the newest version, because my bug report was made after the release date of the latest version (as per Sunisofts site). Needless to say, i always update my components before filing a bug report to make sure the problem hasn't been fixed already.

I use IrisSkin and Krypton in combination.
Krypton isn't suitable for a custom Form Skin, because the visual effects of the OS are need to enabled. So i have found IrisSkin to Skin a Form without visual effects.
I notified sunisoft that i wan't to modify the using Skin at runtime because i have created a class for handle the colors of Krypton and IrisSkin, so i can create Palettes with der PaletteDesigner from Krypton, the Palette will assumed to the Skin for the component automatically by the class at runtime. With a update from sunisoft it has been complete possible, so i have decided to buy this component and i'm content with this decision.
I never tried to skin Controls with the component, but there have been alot of updates from sunisoft.
Hope i could give some ideas.

You have asked the same question many, many times and been given the same answers many, many times. Doesn't that tell you something? If people aren't giving you links to free code, it probably means there isn't any.
BTW - you should have asked this in the Windows Forms forum - this is not a C# issue.

I understand perfectly what you are after. I also know that people have repeatedly pointed you towards none-free tools, but you insist on coming back here and asking the same question. If nobody has pointed you towards free tooling, this should be a strong indication to you that you are going to have to pay or write it yourself. There are articles here on CP on how to achieve some of this, but it is going to require you to actually write some code.
So, stop being such a rude idiot and actually apply some thought to this.

So instead of taking the suggestions presented to you, you act like this? A simple google search will give you what you want but given your rudeness I am not sure that I want to suggest that to you.
Why is common sense not common?

From your profile, it says you're in the USA and have been on the board for just over a year. Let me guess, you're a clueless student? Maybe even in High School or Grade School?
One thing is very clear, you don't have a CLUE about software, engineering, computers, or getting help.
Honestly, how foolish does someone have to be to know that they suck at spelling, but they still ask forums questions without using the FREE and very available Firefox and IE spell checkers?
Yea, I see it all the time in the car forums. But, it's mainly from newbies and 16->18 year olds.
IMHO, if someone isn't smart enough to know that their spelling sucks and to learn how to use the very simple Firefox or IE spell checkers, then there is NO WAY IN **** they should be coding!

It is posible to storing path of appData folder in app.config file.
Now i have:
string folderConfig = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData)
But I want to have this same in app.config.
In log4net is something like this:
< f i l e value="${APPDATA}\log-file.txt" />
but it doesn't work correct, it create folder called ${APPDATA} instead of creating file in appdata folder,
or I don't know how to read this section properly.

All you need to do is parse the string looking for special values, so you could have the following:
string folderConfig =
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["file"].Replace("${APPDATA}",
Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData);

Yes but it is this same:
string folderConfig = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData)

No, it's not. If you run the code, you'll find that it's converted ${APPDATA} into the application data folder. That's what the Replace method does.

Hi everyone!
How to save a dataset as a new .mdb file.
Thank you!
|
|
|
|
|
I don't think you can do it. I've tried to before and didn't find a way to do it.
There's not much to handle mdb files in c#, for instance I needed to use reflection to compact database, so maybe you can do it the same way.
Anyhow there is a simpler way, you can store an empty mdb on you application as a resource and you deploy it when you need it. After that you can connect with it via OleDB andd then you can store handle it as any other database that you can connect to using OleDB.
Regards.

Hi,
First, you'd need to explain what kind of .mdb-file you want. The file-extension is used by Sql Server and Access, two different types of databases. I'd be assuming Access.
First part would be getting a new db on the target-system. The easiest way to do this with Access is by adding an empty db-file as an embedded resource.
Second part would be writing the data to the new database. That would be done using OleDb[^].

Start by creating an empty Access database. Then try creating an OleDb connection as suggested, and write the dataset to the database.
You can always get help with specific questions here if you get stuck midway

Hi Troll
Thank you! i manage to do it! however i need to check for duplication of records. I have a dataset to insert into the database. How do i check for duplicate records. let say if the record has existed in the database then it will not be inserted.
Thanks for reading!

My pleasure, and good job

That's the job of the <ocde>Primary Key[^].
As an example, a single person would be uniquely identified by his/her social security number, so we could make that our primary key. That would make the database guard against duplicates in that table, based on the contents of the "social security number"-field.
Another way to prevent duplicates would be using the UNIQUE[^]-constraint.
