• Windows Forms What's the purpose of 'PreviewKeyDown ' event?

  What's the purpose of new 'PreviewKeyDown' event The doc doesn't say much. Is the only difference that it occurs before the 'KeyDown' event If everyone start using this instead, won't it simply replace 'KeyDown' When should I use one or the other This event is fired before the KeyDown event is fired. It only gives your an preview and you can't set the Handled flag. Use this event for logging logic, shortcut logic because this will be allways fired and can't be stopped by setting a Handled flag. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development RichInk control wrap mode

  In a rich in control you can send a RI_WRAPTOWINDOW or RI_WRAPTOPAGE message.  I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to make the window have no wrapping at all.  I pretty much just want the control to display the unicode character set that I am streaming into it and provide no formatting. I was initially just using an edit control, but there it seems there are some inherent problems with the control.  If I put over a certain number of characters in the control the window begins to not show the characters at the end of the control and starts behaving in a very strange fassion. As far ...Show All

• Windows Forms Null Ref Exception with Splash Screen

  I have added a splash screen to my application, it works like a champ in Windows XP, if I run the same app on Windows 2000 Professional then I receive a System.NullReferenceException when the splashscreen closes.  Now, if I choose to continue the application works like a champ.  Now, on XP this does not occur.  Now, I am a little upset about this because it will not trap with a try catch. Now, either I need to catch this error, or I need to place code somewhere to determin the OS and choose to use the splashscreen whrough the application properties window or the old fasioned way with timers (which I don't like the idea of). ...Show All
