But then Forms 2, 3 and 4 have to know about Form 1. What if somewhere in the future, another form gets created that can open Forms 2, 3 and 4. Now Forms 2, 3 and 4 need to have their code updated in order to deal the the new form, or Form 1 and the new form would have to be updated to inherit a common interface. The configuration settings class would need to be static in a standard winforms environment, but in the mdi environment, the config class could easily be instanced and sent around to the form constructors as a reference so that it is instance specific, but still allowing the forms to be decoupled. My point is that I have serious issues with having ui forms coupled tightly to others. The ui objects should be independent of all others and sharing of information should be done with "domain" level classes. It comes from years of "fixing" enterprise systems that were written with that tight coupling. I have a very good understanding of the pitfalls associated with this.
Anyhows.... I'm rambling because I'm bored and I have to be at work to hold the fort this week... Happy holidays to you.

But then if there is multiple forms that can open forms 2, 3 and 4 then they are likely to have a different UI, which means different properties in your static class and therefore you still have to update code in Forms 2, 3 and 4 to account for this.
I do agree with you about the disadvantages of linking forms in your scenario of Forms 2, 3 and 4 can be opened by multiple forms and they need to disable controls in there parent. But regardless of the methods mentioned here, they all require Forms 2, 3, and 4 to be updated when any new Parent Forms/Controls are created
The way I see it is that if Form 2 needs to disable any controls in Form 1 then the 2 forms are already quite related (even if not directly by code). Therefore I see the best logic in being that anything in Form2 that determines that state of controls in Form1 should be presented as a property/method. Then Form1 can query the values at any time and update its own control state (perhaps an update event or if it is a Dialog then on close/result)
So...
Form2 has a property InvalidData
Form2 has an event Update
Form1 listens for Update event and then if InvalidData then disable control
...but then when Form3 pops up, you have to update code in Form1 to check state of new Forms properties. I just cannot think why a child form would need to disable controls in a parent unless that form was specifically created for that parent form alone
Oops, now I'm rambling. Happy holidays

Hello,
i've downloaded the STUN-Client from codeproject.com and want now to let two clients connect each other.
At first, i create a UdpClient and make a STUN-Query with that. After it, i send the mapped addresses to a server, which deploys them to the two clients. Now they want to connect each other and i make a UdpClient.Connect(mappedIP). This _should_ work, but the problem is, i only get messages from the STUN-Server. I send the data via "UdpClient.Client.SendTo(...)" to my client, but nothing works. I just get crptic messages from the STUN-Server. I've closed the UdpClient. Disconnected and so on, but nothing helps.
Has anybody a solution for me?

I assume this is from an article somewhere? If so, the appropriate place to ask this question is on the article forum. It's extremely unlikely that the author will just happen to stumble across your question and answer it. It's even less likely that somebody else will take the time to download this software, and debug it for you to see what's going wrong.

Add 5 rows, and owner-draw your rows. Don't paint the borders on the "inner" rows, and you're set.

It's not a property, it's a technique. It's described here[^]

Nope, you're right. You'd hide the borders of the cells that you want to merge

I think I've been through most of the info on this site and msdn. Can someone point me to a good reference for using the ToolStripControlHost to host controls in a ToolStrip?
When I use ToolStripControlHost to host lets say a numeric updown control I don't get the attributes I expect. For example I get a text attribute instead of the value attribute?

Maybe this[^] can help.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it.

This is the third time that you have asked the same question.
You have been given lines of research in answer to your previous questions and yet you show no evidence of having done any work for yourself.
Please stop!
It is very doubtful that anyone will give you any code. Do your own research.
[Edit]
BTW: If you are going to ask questions on this site then learn to use more descriptive subject lines. "tell me" does not give anyone a clue what you want.

HI,
I want print selected row in datagridview where I am bind DataGridview using Arraylist as a datasource.

Sounds relatively straightforward. Are you having particular problems trying to implement that?

I have a CLR trigger that calls a stored procedure asynchronously and I'm trying to use the context connection from inside the stored procedures body but it fails to interact with the database. However, when I call the stored procedure in a normal fashion interactions using the context connection are successful.
Inside the stored procedure, I'm trying something like...
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection("context connection=true")) {
// stuff
}
Is using the context connection a no-no when a CLR procedure is called asyncronously?

I'm not sure what you are saying.
What I posted is what I am trying, which works for synchronous calls but not asynchronous calls. I'm already using the "context connection" string.

Did you even read the documentation?

Actually I came across that item but it is in the "Restrictions on Regular Connections" and not in the "Restrictions on Context Connections" section on the same page so I must argue that such a plain statement leaves some questions about the context.
Is that what you were trying to say in your earlier post as I can't quite see the link.
