I have no idea what you're expecting. There is no such thing as a Paint event in a Web Form. It's impossible to convert this code, AS IS, to web forms equivilent because there is no equivilent event.

What is it you want to do in a web form??

You don't have to share the 4 sub folders of the root share you created. Nor do you have to set any permissions on the subfolders. The Share, by default, will show whoever looks in it the contents of the shared folder AND and subfolders. Permissions on the subfolders will also inherit from the parent folder.

You really need to pick up a book on how Windows Networking works...

Re: Strange problem: radiobutton checkchanged triggerd wen not wanted

I have a form where I load (dynamicly) a few radiobuttons lets say 10 groups of 3

everything works except for the first group

here's what happens and how I load them:

in a for lus I create, set the property's of the radiobuttons and put them on the form (each group of 3 in a groupbox)
in the first group the second radiobutton has to be true so I put hem on true (= parameter in db)
in the second group I do exactly the same

when I load the form the first radiobutton of the first group is put on true (witch is wrong) but in the second group the second radiobutton is put on true (as it should be)

when I debug I can see that for the first group the checkchanged event is triggerd (twice since 1 radiobutton is put on true and the other on false) but nowere in my code do I change the property once it is set. Also for the second (and folowing) group the event is not triggerd.

Any idee on why this happens

side note: this does not happen in c# (it's a converted prog)

any idee would we very appriciated

The code is obviously wrong somewhere. The radios don't get their values until runtime, so when your code starts up, the radio's get their initial values, which will fire the checkchanged events.

If the events are not firing for the other radios, it means they don't have their events wired up in your code. Perhaps you're missing some Handling clauses, or you haven't converted the C# event wiring code to VB.NET AddHandler's???

Re: Strange problem: radiobutton checkchanged triggerd wen not wanted

27-Jul-07 3:06

normally I would agree with you but the code is completly the same
how do I know this:
well beceause the radiobuttons are put on the form using a loop (because there are about 100 of them I didn't want to type in rbt = new radiobutton a 100times (I'm lazy that way Poke tongue | ;-P

))

and also at runtime everything works perfectly (when I change a radiobuttons state the checkchanged event is triggerd so that works)

it's just the first group of radiobuttons that creates a problem
apperently there (and only there) checkchanged event is triggerd when creating them

like I said a very strange problem Frown | :(

I dobn't have the the time right now, but I'll see if I can duplicate the problem. Post osome of the code that you're using to create the first few groups and I'll see what I find out.

as promised here's the code that I use for creating the controls (the custum created datatable would normally be replaced with one filled from the db but for testing purposes its enough) and I only included one row here otherwise it would have been too long (it's long enough already)but you can get the idea from it:

<br />
' Add columns to Datatable<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("FieldName", GetType(String))<br />
        ' Databasename of the field<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("FieldType", GetType(String))<br />
        ' Datatype of this field in the database<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("lblField", GetType(String))<br />
        ' Display label on the form<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("rbNot", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' Radiobutton 'Not'    checked?<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("rbIn", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' Radiobutton 'In'     checked?<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("rbNotin", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' Radiobutton 'Not in' checked?<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("SqlSelect", GetType(String))<br />
        ' Multiple selection - <br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("FlgSearchbtn", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' Multiple selection - Only one of these has to be true! - corresponding control has to become visible when checked<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("FlgSelection", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' Single selection   - Only one of these has to be true! - corresponding control has to become visible when checked<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("FlgFromTo", GetType(Boolean))<br />
        ' From/To selection  - Only one of these has to be true! - corresponding control has to become visible when checked<br />
        dt1.Columns.Add("txtSelection", GetType(String))<br />

I didn't forget about you! I've just been really damn busy both at work and home. From the test app that I've managed to sling together, everything LOOKS ok, but I've don't have the test data to really beat the snot out of it. If you could post the first few records of your table, it would help a lot.

I can tottaly understand that, I sleep about 5 hours a night and the rest of the time I work and still haven't got enough time so...

there isn't a table behind it.
maybe if I explain a bit better what the meaning of it you'll understand better so here I go (trying very hard):

I have a project where the user has to be able to search for records by filters he can set himself.
So I designed a form (frmsearch) that would do that and made that form dynamicly so that I can reuse it everywhere I want (I'm very lasy (don't like to copy paste or do the same thing to much);P)
here is how such a form would look like(described)

(label)name:
inside groupbox 3radiobuttons
(radiobutton) rbnot (= no filter)
(radiobutton) rbin (= record field contains whatever the user set in textbox)
(radiobutton) rbnotin (= record field does not contains whatever the user set in textbox)
and then a few more things for design purposes

this way all I have to do in the form that calls frmsearch is the next:

Dim dt As DataTable = clsSearch.createDataTable
        Dim dr As DataRow
        dr = dt.NewRow()
        dr("FieldName") = "ActiviteitTypeCode"
        dr("FieldType") = "string"
        dr("lblField") = "Code:"
        dr("rbNot") = True
        dr("rbIn") = False
        dr("rbNotin") = False
        dr("FlgSearchbtn") = False
        dr("FlgSelection") = True
        dr("FlgFromTo") = False
        dr("txtSelection") = ""
        dr("txtFrom") = ""
        dr("txtTo") = ""
        dt.Rows.Add(dr)
        dr = dt.NewRow()
        dr("FieldName") = "ActiviteitTypeOmschrNLD"
        dr("FieldType") = "string"
        dr("lblField") = "Omschrijving NLD:"
        dr("rbNot") = True
        dr("rbIn") = False
        dr("rbNotin") = False
        dr("FlgSearchbtn") = False
        dr("FlgSelection") = True
        dr("FlgFromTo") = False
        dr("txtSelection") = ""
        dr("txtFrom") = ""
        dr("txtTo") = ""
        dt.Rows.Add(dr)
        dr = dt.NewRow()
        Dim frm As New frmSearch(dt)
        frm.ShowDialog()

then frmsearch returns an sql string (where clause) wich I can use to select the correct data and display it on the form

I hope this clears things up a bit
if not I'm willing to send you the project (or part of it) so you test it for you're self but then I'll need an email account since I can't attach anything here

thanks in advance for all you'r help and time

Re: Strange problem: radiobutton checkchanged triggerd wen not wanted

6-Aug-07 7:55

OK. I just cannot break this thing the way you described. The check list to go through for creating a groupbox with a few radio buttons in it is this:

Create the groupbox
    Set Text, Size, Location properties
    Add GroupBox to host form's Controls collection

Do While more radios to create
    Create RadioButton
        Set Text, Location, AutoSize properties
        AddHandler CheckChanged event to appropriate CheckChanged handler
            (event handler must be in host form's class, NOT another form)
        Add RadioButton to host form's Controls collection
        Add RadioBUtton to host GroupBox Controls collection
Loop

yeah I know it's not easy to understand but maybe if I send you all my code
so here it is:

frmsearch load: (logic: we iterate true every row in dt and create the controls for that row (based on values in the dt (look at third code block to see an example of dt)))

Private Sub frmBedrijfZoek_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    If dt1.Rows.Count > 0 Then

        Dim x As Integer = 10, y As Integer = 0, yInit As Integer = 0, i As Integer = 0, len As Integer = dt1.Rows.Count, maxwidth As Integer = 310
        y = 0 '20

the checkchanged methode:
the first if is our 'bad' solution (doesn't even work everytime but its the only thing we'v come up with so far)

Private Sub rb_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        If counter < 2 Then ' This is a tricky solution for VB.Net (not C#) because this event is triggered in the load of the form
            rbNot(0).Checked = CBool(dt1.Rows(0)("rbNot"))
            rbIn(0).Checked = CBool(dt1.Rows(0)("rbIn"))
            rbNotin(0).Checked = CBool(dt1.Rows(0)("rbNotin"))

            counter += 1
            Exit Sub
        End If

        Dim idx As Integer = DirectCast(DirectCast(sender, RadioButton).Tag, Int32)
        Dim chk As Boolean = DirectCast(sender, RadioButton).Checked

        If DirectCast(sender, RadioButton).Name = "rbNot" Then
            chk = Not chk
        End If

        SetControlsVisible(idx, chk)
    End Sub

example of dt: (this will give 2 groupboxes of 3 radiobuttons)

Public Sub MnuSearch() Implements IfrmClient.MnuSearch
    Dim dt As DataTable = clsSearch.createDataTable
    Dim dr As DataRow
    dr = dt.NewRow()
    dr("FieldName") = "ActiviteitTypeCode"
    dr("FieldType") = "string"
    dr("lblField") = "Code:"
    dr("rbNot") = False 'bug only happens if this is false
    dr("rbIn") = True 'bug only happens if this is true
    dr("rbNotin") = False
    dr("FlgSearchbtn") = False
    dr("FlgSelection") = True
    dr("FlgFromTo") = False
    dr("txtSelection") = ""
    dr("txtFrom") = ""
    dr("txtTo") = ""
    dt.Rows.Add(dr)
    dr = dt.NewRow()
    dr("FieldName") = "ActiviteitTypeOmschrNLD"
    dr("FieldType") = "string"
    dr("lblField") = "Omschrijving NLD:"
    dr("rbNot") = True
    dr("rbIn") = False
    dr("rbNotin") = False
    dr("FlgSearchbtn") = False
    dr("FlgSelection") = True
    dr("FlgFromTo") = False
    dr("txtSelection") = ""
    dr("txtFrom") = ""
    dr("txtTo") = ""
    dt.Rows.Add(dr)

    Dim frm As New frmSearch(dt)
    If frm.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
        where = frm.sqlwhere
        sql = "select ActiviteitTypeCode,ActiviteitTypeOmschrNLD,ActiviteitTypeOmschrFRA,ActiviteitTypeKleur," & _
        "isactief,datum_creatie,user_creatie,datum_wijz,user_wijz from ActiviteitType " & where
        loaddata()
    End If

So where do you add the radio buttons to the GroupBox?? I don't see it and it was one of my items in the "Checklist" I posted.

yeah probably should have told you that this groupbox doesn't matter much it's just for lay-out purposes. The groupbox that matters is the gb groupbox that's the one containing the raio buttons and those are added with the following code:

gb(i).Controls.AddRange(New Control() {rbNot(i), rbIn(i), rbNotin(i)})

Missed that one.

What's with the arrays of controls? [ gb(i) ]

yeah I'm not quite sure why my college did it like this but I don't think it will make a difference

(I didn't write the code just have to correct it = real fun D'Oh! | :doh:

)

just asked him, here is his answer:

quote 'Because I can then fit it on to 1 line of code' end quote

o and I just tested it with adding them like this 'gb(i).controls.add(rbnot(i))' and it doesn't make a difference so...

I have an update on the problem:

when I use the following as the first datarow I don't have the problem

dr = dt.NewRow()
        dr("FieldName") = "ActiviteitTypeCode"
        dr("FieldType") = "string"
        dr("lblField") = "Code:"
        dr("rbNot") = True 'this changed from false to true
        dr("rbIn") = False 'this changed from true to false
        dr("rbNotin") = False
        dr("FlgSearchbtn") = False
        dr("FlgSelection") = True
        dr("FlgFromTo") = False
        dr("txtSelection") = ""
        dr("txtFrom") = ""
        dr("txtTo") = ""
        dt.Rows.Add(dr)

I didn't answer this question yesterday because I don't have a fricken' clue what you're talking about!! Reposting the exact same question isn't going to help.

You're description of what you want amounts to a rambling pile of _____ that I can't make heads or tails of. A much simpler explanation of what you want would help.
