This list implemenst the IList interface.  I would like to create a function that returns a list of these objects that are currently selected in the Datagrid.

• Visual C# DLL Files

  You can create an DLL so that you can easy deploy this with more projects. There are no performance penalties, when a DLL is needed it will be loaded and it stays loaded untill the application ends. For your development it can be handy to have multiple projects (DLL's) and for the update process it can be usefull to. The user doesn't have to download a very large .EXE file when you only updated one class for example. You can sepperate them by namespace, just as the .NET Framework does. MyApp.Data < MyApp.Data.dll > MyApp.Data.Gateway MyApp.Data.Gateway.Mssql MyApp.Data.Gateway.Access MyApp.Data.Gateway.Webservice MyApp.Net ...Show All

• Windows Forms TaskVision XPanderControl: Convert IComparer implementation from VB.NET to C#

  Hello, I got the XPanderControl written in C# except for the IComparer implementation ini XPanderComparer. I'm getting an invalid cast exception with C# code like: public int Compare( object x, object y) { XpanderControl xpander1 = (XpanderControl)x; XpanderControl xpander2 = (XpanderControl)y; int result = 0; if ( xpander1.Top < xpander2.Top ) result = -1; if ( xpander1.Top > xpander2.Top ) result = 1; return result; } This mirrors the VB.NET implementation as close as I can get it.

• Smart Device Development CameraCaptureDialog Issues

  I've been having some issues using the CameraCaptureDialog class on an HTC Apache device (rebranded as the UTstarcom 6700): 1. After exiting my application, the device's camera capture screen comes into focus. This happens whether I dispose of the class instance or not, and the Close() method is protected, so I can't call that. Any ideas on getting rid of this lingering capture screen 2. On a seemingly random, intermittent basis, an InvalidOperationException will be thrown from within the ShowDialog() method. Sometimes this will happen after taking 4 or 5 photos, but other times it will work fine for 40 or 50 photos before I give up trying ...Show All

• SQL Server Using data from XML column as basis for LEFT JOIN...

  I have a primary key in table1 in a single column of type int. I have another table "table2" that has an XML column. This XML column has values from the primary key in table1. I would like to return rows from table1 where the primary key in table1 matches data inside the XML column in table2 (the primary key). I have worked with CROSS APPLY, but cannot seem to use it to replace the LEFT OUTER JOIN syntax. I know the following syntax is wrong, but I posted it so you can get a feel for what I'm trying to do.

  VBA question -  I have been maintaining a large macro within my workplace.  It is basically a find and replace macro that let's the users easily create client documents.  It is housed within the Normal.dot template and contains a "MyName" module and "AcctMgr" module.  I have just completed an upgrade and I simply want to replace the "AcctMgr" module with a new one.  Replacing the whole Normal.dot file just causes too much pain for the person to have to go into the module and then re-update their name in the "MyName" code..

• Visual Studio Tools for Office saving a range?

  Hello. Is there a way to save a range and be able to go back to it. I'll explain why. I'm currently selecting text and then hitting a button (homemade) that takes that texts and creates a page break and puts it onto the next page. But after that I want the cursor to come back up to where I started. That is the part I can't figure out.

• .NET Development What .Net Framework to use???

  Hi, I'm building a windows forms application to be downloaded from the Internet and allow the users to connect to a server and exchange information using Sockets. My dilemma is what version of .Net to use. I wanted to use 2.0 but I'm afraid that users will quit the download if they have to get a 20MB .Net install file. I know I can have an application stub and do all the downloading after user runs setup.exe but still it takes about 12min in a DSL to download the framework. At the other hand I don't want to stay back with .Net 1.1, which has a greater penetration in desktops; Visual Studio 2005 and .Net 2.0 have some great features. ...Show All
