• Visual J# Web Browser, HTML selection

  Hi, I have implemented a simple Web Browser using the inbuilt Web Browser component. I now need to be able to highlight some text on the web page and for this to then be selected by the J# program. This is possible in Java by using the getSelectionSrat and getSelectionEnd methods linked to the JEditorPane, and it is possible in C# by using IHTMLSelectionObject and IHTMLTxtRange, but now I need to find the J# version!

• Windows Forms DataGridView Scroll

  Hi. When I scroll my DataGridView it is scrolled by steps of 3 (or any other number) of rows depending on what is set in Windows Mouse Properties. Is there a way to make it scroll row by row t.e. one notch = one scrolled row. Thanks! There isn't any built in property to change this. You would have to override the OnMouseWheel method and provide your own implementation (and not call base.OnMouseWheel) -mark DataGridView Program Manager Microsoft This post is provided "as-is" ...Show All

• Visual C# How to list a remote directory?

  Hi there, How can I list the files in a directory on a server (I'd prefer .NET 1.1) Thanks, Finch82. U have two options I think. 1. I think WMI will work you just need to set the ConnectionOptions in the ManagementScope object. But this may be slow depending on the query filtering involved. 2. Write a .net remoting or older dhcp service that runs on the password protected server and have it run under an account wth rights to the folder you want and then make a client app that runs on your computer and calls functions on that remote service, I think you can set rights with config files and o ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do I assign a .ico file to a ToolStripButton??

  I modify the filter (*.*) to list the .ico files when setting the Image property of the ToolStripButton , and select the .ico file, it doesn't modify the property and the image doesn't change. It seems I CAN'T set an .ico file to the Image property of a ToolStripButton Does anyone know a solution for this problem please let me know .... Thanks!!!! The reason is because an Icon is not a System.Drawing.Image as such. You will need to convert it first: toolStripButton1.Image = myIcon.ToBitmap();   This is not ideal as you will loose the alpha channel. So instead you can actually add it the ImageList property on the ToolStrip, a ...Show All
