Programmatically you would have to get a handle of the window and then change the window text of the start button window. Programmatically you would have to use API. Otherwise you could use Resource Hacker to alter the dlls of the OS.

hey,
When I'm trying to delete one of my created files. My program saids it is in use (by himself) but that's because the program is to fast. When I let him wait 10sec the lock is gone... But that not zo good if you have to delete 20-50 files.
How can I unlock them automatically?
Thx!!!

How are the files created? Did you maybe forgot to call close on some streams?

There are all created with:
new DirectoryInfo(Path.GetDirectoryName(path)).Create();
StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(path);
writer.WriteLine(content);
writer.Close();
But than the locks are fine. But after all the files are created I zip them with "SharpZipLib" and is places locks that last realy long...
thx

Then there's a bug in the zip library, or in how you're using it.

But you have to know, he releases the locks It just takes to long

That means, something is NOT closed, but it is eventually garbage collected.

that works thx!
GC.Collect();
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers();

That's a hack. You should instead figure out what's going wrong with the zip library.

Well, I'd think if it's a problem in the framework, then others will have encountered it. If you find nothing on google, it's a bug in your code. 'If we have time at the end', means, we're going to leave it broken. At least, that's what I'd expect it to mean.

What do you mean with that?

hello again,
well I made a parent child form in C# 2.0 windows application with sql server 2000 and i'm having troble in deleting the parent record bcz it gives a constraint error that the table is also reffered to in another child table that is not being used in the current form. so can u plz tell me what I should do to delete that parent record when there are references in its child table.
thanks in advance
Rocky

i have also face the same problem in java.
At that time i have to delete the record from the child record and then to the parent node.
U can't simply delete parent record.
Try this out and let me know.

This isn't strictly true. You can do a cascading delete, but only if the database supports it and the tables have been set up to support it. I wouldn't recommend it, but you can.

If some constraints are specified between two tables. How do to overcome the constraints.
If the above sentence is true means. How do you delete the data with deleting the data from the child record.

It works by setting up a cascading delete on a foreign key. Basically, this means that when you delete from the master table, related entries are deleted from child tables. In SQL Server, you do this by adding ON DELETE CASCADE to the foreign key constraint.
As I noted above though, it is generally best to avoid doing this. You really need to have more control over what you are deleting because sometimes you may end up deleting things that you didn't want to.

well yes I didnt have the cascade option there but now I think its a better idea to have more control over it bcz these tables are bill and billDetails so one shouldnt be able to delete the whole bill along with all the detail records. Right?

|

well I have a little question: how do we chk for the existance of child records in C#. is it something like getChildRows() or something??
|
|
|
|
|
You actually need to query the tables that are linked to see if they point back to the row.

draw an organization chart on a form but the rectangles I drew exced the size of the form what can I do to make the form sizable
merwa

Look at Form property -> FormBorderStyle
If you can't find time to do it right the first time how are you going to find time to do it again?

EDIT2: Solved, thanks to CPallini. I was stupid not to see it in the first place myself. 
EDIT: The code that generates the random bools is in a different assembly from the code that calls it - caching is unlikely to work. Due to design constraints, I cannot change GetRandomBool's signature
I am trying to generate pairs of bools in a loop. Here's the relevant code with method and variable names changed:
for(int i = 0; i < rounds; i++)
{
bool firstPlayersChoice = GetRandomBool();
bool secondPlayersChoice = GetRandomBool();
}
public static bool GetRandomBool()
{
System.Random randomNumberGenerator = new System.Random((int) DateTime.Now.Ticks);
int randomNumber = randomNumberGenerator.Next();
if(randomNumber % 2 == 1)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
When I step through the code, executing the program step by step, the results are fine. However, when I run the program directly, I'm seeing pairs of the same value, i.e., many instances of (true, true) or (false, false). Statistically, half my outcomes should be identical pairs, but even when rounds is 100, I barely see a non-identical pair like (true, false). 
I'm guessing the program runs so fast that the two calls to GetRandomBool generate identical values for randomNumberGenerator and hence generate identical bools. 
Is there some way I can get bool pairs that are statistically similar to what I'd expect?
