- Dotnet >> PropertyGrid and datatablehi
here is my question
I use a propertyGrid to display/modify values
some of my properties are in database...for exemple : a list of city
(city_id, city_text)
is it possible to give a datatable to the property and let it display in a
combobox the list of the city?
I want to display le name of the city (city_text) and want to retrieve the
id (city_id)...
in other words, is there a way to use displayMember & valueMember &
datasource in the propertyGrid????
thanks in advance

- Microsoft Project >> Material Cost Input and CalculationOur Material Cost View is not acting consistently and am wondering if anyone
knows what the reason and/or fix might be.
In some instances it is working as desired where once the material resource
is assigned to a task you must enter the units into Actual Work then Actual
Cost is calculated. Entering directly into Actual Cost is blocked.
In other instances it will block from allowing input into Actual Cost on the
first input column then will allow it after that. If data is input into the
Actual Cost field Actual Work is not calculated and the 2 become out of sync.
In even other instances it allows input into Actual Cost on the first try.
The problem does not seem to be project specific either. Sometimes it works
OK on a project and other times it doesn't. I have not been able to identify
any commonality in occurance.
Thanks,
Debbie

- ADO >> Progress bar doesn't incrementI created a windows form that has a progress bar on it. I am running a bunch of statements to update data on the database. I want the progress bar to increment (perform one step) after each update. The problem is that the progress bar doesn't move (it just sits there until the end) can anyone give me an example of how to accomplish this?
example:
progressBar1.Visible=true;
progressBar1.Show();
progressBar1.Maximum = 24;
progressBar1.Step = 1;
progressBar1.PerformStep();
Perform_update1;
progressBar1.PerformStep();
Perform_update2;
progressBar1.PerformStep();
Perform_update3;
etc.
thanks in advance

- Visual C#.Net >> Alternative to 'abstract' in base forms?I'm creating several forms that inherit from a base form. I want to require
the derived forms to implement certain methods of the base form. The easy
solution would be to declare abstract methods in the base form. But I can't
do that, since the WinForms Designer can't instantiate an abstract form.
So, what would be a good alternative to using abstract methods. I'm thinking
about declaring an interface, but that seems kind of klunky. Thanks.

- Winforms >> Richtextbox Settings problemI pasted the following code (from a Microsoft example) in the load event of my form, but when I run the app, none of the settings, such as font size, color, etc. take effect, except for the bulletted list.
' Clear all text from the RichTextBox;
rtbSetUpInstructions.Clear()
' Set the font for the opening text to a larger Arial font;
rtbSetUpInstructions.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 16)
' Assign the introduction text to the RichTextBox control.
rtbSetUpInstructions.SelectedText = "The following is a list of bulleted items:" + ControlChars.Cr
' Set the Font for the first item to a smaller size Arial font.
rtbSetUpInstructions.SelectionFont = New Font("Arial", 12)
' Specify that the following items are to be added to a bulleted list.

' Set the color of the item text.

- Microsoft Project >> Resource across projectsI'm getting there - thanks to this forum!
I now have a shared resource across 3 projects (one of which is absence,
i.e. sickness & holidays!)
If I open my resource file (in resource usage view), I can see by person,
all the work that they have done across the projects in a week (to make sure
it adds up to 35 hours) then by project I can see the progression - LOVELY
But, of course, a problem remains (!), since I receive worksheets (across
the projects) by man, I would like to be able to enter the hours worked from
the resource usage view in the shared resource file, and then have that
update the hours worked in all the projects (and consequently hours remaining
etc etc) - I don't seem to be able to do this (it doesn't have any effect,
and will not save), I have to go into each project & update them individually
(which then updates the shared resource file)
I'm sure there must be a way of doing this, all help appreciated
Thanks

- Visual C#.Net >> Calling a parent class methodI have a class (sharedClass) that is instantiated (not derived) by two other
classes (guiClassA and guiClassB). The sharedClass needs to be able to call
a method that is defined in its parent class (guiClass).
Specifically, when guiClassA or guiClassB calls a method from the
sharedClass, the sharedClass needs to log its actions by sending strings to
the guiClass (via guiClass method calls), which in turn display or record
this log information in their own unique ways.
How can the sharedClass call out a function from its parent class without
knowing exactly what kind of class the parent class is? (I can however
guarantee that the parent class will implement the logging function).
Since both guiClasses are not used in the same application, I was able to
solve this in C++ by declaring the logging function prototype in a header
file that was included by all the classes, and then defining the function
implementation at the same level as the guiClass was instantiated. Thus, the
connection was made by the linker. Is there any way to do something similar
in C#?

- Net Framework >> Re: Question on ConfigurationElementCollection designA while back, a question was posted on ConfigurationElementCollection design as follows:
"I have 2 questions on using element collections when building a custom
section handler. I'm using the "declarative" model and I can post the code
if necessary.
My code works and the XML in app.config for my custom section looks like this:
MySection name="x"
Stores add name="store1"
add name="store2"
Stores
MySection
But I have 2 sort of "cosmetic" questions about changing the XML:
1.
...
2. In some cases it might also be nicer to skip the outermost "Stores"
element and just have this:
MySection name="x"
Store name="store1" Store name="store2"
MySection
But I don't see how to arrange for this in the declarations of a
ConfigurationElementCollection. It seems to require the outermost element to
key on its name. What I want is sort of an "unnamed" collection of Stores."
The first part of the question was answered by using the ConfigurationCollection attribute.
Did you ever get a solution to the "unnamed" part (part 2) of your question? I'd like to also add a section collection to my config section and adding a name is redundant. ie., the "Stores" element in you sample. Can an "unnamed" section be added?

- Visual C#.Net >> How to make SoapHttpClientProtocol create different TCP connection for web service invocation?I use VS auto generated code to invoke a internal network webservice.
The auto-generated code use class SoapHttpClientProtocol to do Soap-on-
http communication. It turns out that for single
SoapHttpClientProtocol instances, TCP connection is always maintained
for reuse. This is understandable. Now, I have one load balancer
between client and backend webservice cluster, so, single TCP
connection for single invocation is prefer-ed.
How to make it create TCP connection for one method invocation and
then close it?

Winforms >> how to: persist the DesktopBounds with a menu?
Generally you are trying to maintain the client area, not the actual size of the
application.
The client area is where all of the various controls are hosted and doesn't
include the
region used by menus, the various adornments of visual styles, etc... Taking and
restoring
the ClientSize in your appication should enable you to perform a consistent
reload without
having the enlarged size issues.
If you are still having issues, then we'll need more information. It is possible
you are attaching
your menu after you set the size. In which case you'll want to change your
ordering a bit.

Winforms >> how to: persist the DesktopBounds with a menu?
hi justin.
your suggestion did not work for my code.
here is some more info:
i am adding the menu in the designer.
which means it gets called in the constructor.
i am setting the bounds after that,
but before the Load event.

- Dotnet >> enumerate filesHi,
I wanted to list all files in a directory so I found some code:
Dim t(), st As String
t = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(System.IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory,
"*.txt")
Dim en As System.Collections.IEnumerator
en = t.GetEnumerator
While en.MoveNext
st = CStr(en.Current)
ComBoFilel.Items.Add(st)
End While
To add just the name of the file rather than its whole path, do I need to do
some string manipulation to find the last "\" or is there a simpler method
Thanks

- Microsoft Project >> Fixed Duration and Work HoursQuestion on something I haven't been able to figure out and it happens
if the task is complete or in progress.
I have set the whole schedule to Fixed Duration but whenever I add or
delete a resource my start and finish dates change.
I thought with type set as Fixed Duration the dates shouldn't change
even if the overall work hours for the task did change.
I know Fixed Work will keep the work the same which should then keep
the date per se in check but I think Fixed Duration will do this job
better until I'm finished resource loading.
Any thoughts?

- ADO >> improving executenonquery timesHi,
We are new to ADO.NET, and any help would be appreciated.
The scenario is as follows: we have a large number of objects
(thousands) to write to a database. Each object has a method that
returns the SQL query which will update a relevant table in the
database.
We had opened a connection to the databse, and for each such string
did executenonquery (on that one connection). The results were
horrible. Then we had moved on to aggregating all the queries,
separated by newline in a one huge string (with StringBuilder of
course) and doing only one executenonquery per all the objects - that
was a big improvement.
Is the paradigm of doing one large executenonquery instead many small
ones, for one connection is indeed optimal ?
Is the paradigm of having one connection (instead of say, thousands,
each per object) optimal ?
Do you have any idea how the times may be improved further ? Is there
any other method ?
