Where is this usually goes within your class? Do I place it before all of my methods< and it will affect all of them?
Thank you

Hi all,
My program is using MS WORD in automation (unvisible). Sometimes, in a case of failure WORD stays active in memory. I think I will find a solution in this forum to kill WORD in the tasklist (I have seen somethink here) but how can I prevent to kill a version wich I have not created by my program.
(I already hear the cusomer crying - where is my text)
Who can solve my problem
Thanks alot
Frank

This should do it
private int _WordAppProcessID= 0;
[DllImport("user32.dll", EntryPoint="GetWindowThreadProcessId")]
public static extern uint GetWindowThreadProcessId(int Hwnd, ref int ProcessID);
GetWindowThreadProcessId(this._WordApp.Hwnd, ref this._WordAppProcessID);
KillExcelInstance();
internal bool KillExcelInstance()
{
// Kill our instance of Excel...
if (this._ImportExcelProcessID != 0)
{
Process.GetProcessById(this._WordAppProcessID).Kill();
return true;
}
return false;
}

Thank you,
it seems to be the right way...
but I have the problem that _wordAPP derieved from Word.ApplicationClass() has no Hwnd. Do you know
where to get it ?
Thanks

Hi
How can i create an exe file written in C# which is not depends on the .Net Framework?
I want to run this program without any installation - a standalone exe.
I think that i'll get this goal using windows API programming but i'm not sure and i didn't find any good reference that teach me how to do this.
Am i right? do you have any idea how can i start doing it?
Thanks a lot

You can't. If you need a standalone executable you need to work in c++.

You can't. Period. End of story.

Not a chance. The .NET Framework comiles you code into machine code when it's executed, not when you compile it. When you compile your app, it's converted to processor-independant MSIL (MS Intermiediate Language) code. It's not actually runnable by any processor.
Also, the .NET Framework is required for compiling to processor specific code, memory management, object allocation and destruction, garbage collection, ..., the list oges on and on, ... and on some more, ... Just making calls into the Win32 API definately does not release you from requiring the .NET Framework.

Isn't the correct spelling definitely? A lot of people over here seem to use your spelling, I'm wondering which one is right.

Yeah, it's "definitely". I can type, not neccessarily accurately, faster than I can spell. I seem to make that same mistake alot, kind of like typing "hte" for "the".

An alternative that is available but not supported by Microsoft would be to use a .NET linker. Here are a couple...

Thinstall[^]
I have only played with the demo versions of these, but I have heard decent things about both (except for price).

Using the .NET Linker has it's advantages, but it also has a rather large downfall. If you try to install one of the .NET Framework service packs, it'll fail.

Dear All,
I am developing a DLL to allow other program to import as a reference (something like creating an API). As we know, when other program declares a reference to my DLL, and starts using it, after typing the object name followed by a dot ("."), a list of properties and methods available from the DLL will appear. What I want to ask is, is it possible for me to add Intellisense features to my DLL, providing a quick info to the properties and methods that I have in the DLL, to the clients of my DLL? I have heard that this can only be achieved if I develop the DLL using C#, not VB.NET, is that true?
Thanks alot for ur help

No, that's not true.
There are two things that you have to do. First you have to add documentation to your code, then you have to make Visual Studio create an xml documentation file from the comments.
In C# you use /// to create xml comments, in VB you use '''. Just type it on the line before the method, and Visual Studio gives you the start automatically.
I have described how to make Visual Studio create the xml documentation file before, in some of these boards. Search for it.

Hi Guffa,
I have written some documentation to my DLL, build it, seen the .xml counterpart of the DLL. But as I test it in another project, having imported the dll, copy the xml over to this project's bin folder (is this necessary?), I still only see the method signature from my DLL as the quick info, the extra description for the method, parameters, and return value are not displayed. Below is the snippet of my DLL source code:
///
/// InstanceCount property.
///
/// <value>The total number of the instances of CDemo.
public static long InstanceCount
{
get
{
return ClassInstanceCount;
}
}
///
/// Add two numbers together
///
/// <param name="a" />
/// First number.
///
/// <param name="b" />
/// Second number.
///
/// <returns>The total of two numbers
public int addNumber(int a, int b)
{
int c;
c = a + b;
return c;
}
Anything that I have missed over here?
Thanks for ur help

How do you "import" the dll? If you add the project to the solution, the dll file and xml file is automatically copied to the solutions bin folder.
Where did the xml go? The comments should look like this:
/// <summary>InstanceCount property.</summary>
/// <remarks>Gets the total number of instances of CDemo.</remarks>
public static long InstanceCount {
get {
return ClassInstanceCount;
}
}
/// <summary>Add two numbers together</summary>
/// <param name="a">First number.</param>
/// <param name="b">Second number.</param>
/// <returns>The total of two numbers</returns>
public int addNumber(int a, int b) {
int c;
c = a + b;
return c;
}
<small>---
b { font-weight: normal; }</small>

Hi Guffa,
I redid the dummy DLL project. Then import (right-click references from solution explorer) in a tester project, now I can see the explanation in intellisense.
Thanks alot for ur guidance

Hi
I have a program (buiusing windows API) that is running invisible and is being controled by shortcut keys. When a specific shortcut key is pressed i want to display a small image on top of the screen to inform the user that the operation succeeded or failed.
How do i display an image on top of the screen using windows API?
Thanks a lot

Of course, there are a thousand different ways to do this, but here is a very simple one: Just have a little hidden borderless window with a PictureBox having Dock property set to Fill; when you want to show the image, show the window, starting a timer that will stop itself and hide the window again after whatever interval you want.
Let stand for five minutes before serving. Season to taste. Enjoy.

I forgot the name of an add-in I liked a lot.
It was drawing a vertical line between the brackets in my C# code. I believe it did refactoring too. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I'd like to reinstall it.
Thanks!
Example:
if (0==1)
{
|
| Debug.WriteLine("Something is broken, Jimbo!");
|
}
