Each windows from has a method called Show and ShowDialog. Each of these methods has an overload that accepts an IWin32Window). The MSDN documentation states that the IWin32Window is any "object that implements System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window and reprepsents a top-level window that will own this form.
If you were to do frmSearch.ShowDialog(someFormName), I think this would accomplish what you are after.

Apart from the above post, i'm pretty sure setting the forms .Owner and .Parent properties would work.
Also, to get main form from your employee form, use this.Parent. That will give you a reference to frmMain.
frmSearch = new frmSearch();<br />
frmSearch.ShowDialog(this.Parent);

Will this let me pass data from frmSearch to frmEmployeeInfo?
I need to pass RecId from frmSearch to frmEmployeeInfo because I need to read a record and populate the listbox in frmEmployeeInfo.
Thanks again, you guys are a life savor.

you should not interlink two forms to much (of course you could give the constructor of frmSearch a reference to a frmEmployeeInfo-object and use some public function of frmEmployeeInfo to do this - but I would advise against it) - better use something like:
- a event in frmSearch to post the info
- a callback-delegate that is passed to frmSearch (this is more or less the same than using an event - but the event has better VS-integration 
- a public function/property on frmSearch to query the data
I would advise:
- if you call the frmSearch as an modal dialog use the public property approach
- if not use the callback-delegate approach

Hi i have written the code below, its job is to bring up a popup when a button is clicked, however although the popup comes up when information is entered into the popup it brings back an error saying, input string was not in correct format.
Hi that works but it doesnt take across "WorkSchedule_ID" because although the popup loads, when i enter information into it, the result is still "input string was not in a correct format". I tried this but it didnt work, the offending line is "strPrimaryKey =e.Item.DataBind("WorkSchedule_ID").ToString;". WorkSchedule_ID is coming from the database and each recored has its on unique ID, how can i pass it through to the page?
protected void btnModify_Click(Object sender, DataGridCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "Submit")
{
string strPrimaryKey = (string)e.CommandArgument;
strPrimaryKey =e.Item.DataBind("WorkSchedule_ID").ToString;
//int intPrimaryKey = Convert.ToInt32(strPrimaryKey);
strEvent = "<script language='javascript'>\r\n";
strEvent = strEvent + "popup('sow_notes.aspx?WorkSchedule_ID=" + strPrimaryKey;
strEvent = strEvent + "&survey_id=" + Request.QueryString["survey_id"].ToString();
strEvent = strEvent + "&sow_type_id=" + Request.QueryString["sow_type_id"].ToString();
strEvent = strEvent + "&surveytype_id=" + Request.QueryString["surveytype_id"].ToString();
strEvent = strEvent + "&property_id=" + Request.QueryString["property_id"].ToString() + "');\r\n";
strEvent = strEvent + "</script>";ViewState["sEvent"] = strEvent;
}
}

1. You should have posted this in the ASP .NET forum.
2. I don't know ASP .NET, but I think there are better ways of popping up a window.
3. Why are you initializing strPrimaryKey?
4. strPrimaryKey =e.Item.DataBind("WorkSchedule_ID").ToString; shouldn't even compile - ToString is a method, you are missing the parantheses.
5. Have you stepped through the code? What are you seeing there?
Cheers,
Vikram.

Hi All,
I have 4 project that have dependencies on each other.
I want to compile them all together - but i want to use some "make" file to do it because i need them to be compile in some const order.
I know that i can use the pre-Build option to set the compile order - but i prefer to do it by using some "make" file.
I don't know how to do it ( write the make file to this mission ).
Thanks for the help.

You could write the file yourself, but why since Visual Studio automatically detects project dependencies in the same solution and compiles them in the proper order.
Or, if you want to rearrange the dependencies yourself, just click the Project menu and pick "Project Dependencies" to set it up.
If you really want to write your own MSBuild files, I guess you can get an overview of it from this[^].

Are you constipated? Are rabbits eating the cabbage in your garden? Are you on an airplane that has been hijacked? No? Then perhaps your problem is that you insufficiently described the "problematic" results you are seeing from running the above code, and will get NO help until you do. Be specific.

hello, everybody
my problem is the following:
I want to make a course project that would be applied in students payroll department in my university. this department has two units. each unit must have its own interface but the database would be shared for the two interfaces. so I made new project in MVS 2005 C# with 3 forms (LogIn Form,Form1,Form2). logIn form is the start form that link to the form1 or form2 based on username and password of the two units. and I want to make something like mail between the two forms.
my database has the following tables:
1. "Unit1Mail": to stores the mails of unit1 those unit2 sent.
2. "unit2Mail": to stores the mails of unit2 those unit1 sent.
so I put timers in form1 and form2 to check if there is new message.
so checking of new message will be done by comparing the old number of rows of the "Unit1Mail" or "Unit2Mail" tables and the current number of rows.
so in form1_load handler, I put this statement to get the old number of rows and stores it in global variable "i":
this.oleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(this.dataSet11,"Unit1Mail");<br />
i = this.dataSet11.Tables["Unit1Mail"].Rows.Count;
and in timer1_teck handler, I put these statements to compare the ole and current numbers:
this.dataSet11.Clear();<br />
this.oleDbDataAdapter1.Fill(this.dataSet11, "Unit1Mail");<br />
if (this.dataSet11.Tables["Unit1Mail"].Rows.Count > i)
this.label1.Text = " You have a new message";
and also I do the same in Form2
and then, I sent a message from unit1 to unit2 . but I don't know why it didn't work correctly (the label1 didn't show the string that u have new message)
so, is there any problem with these statements???? 
please I need help with this situation....

Hello to all you pro's,
I have a small problem i don't understand.
I have a constructor, in which i initialize some of my object members,
after that I wanna call btnOK.performClick() in order to call the buttons click event handler.
this is a login screen which I want to be able to run threw batch file.
I pass to Main the user and password, but it waits for a user to click OK.
I wanted to make it full automatic so inside c'tor i wrote btnOK.performClick().
this doesn't work, this program doesn't jump to the handler. what can I do about it????
here is some relevant code, don't hesitate if any more data is required.
thank you all for your help.
in Main()
if (!EltavGateway.Properties.Settings.Default.UseDefultLogin)
{
frmLogin frmLoginUser = new frmLogin();
if (frmLoginUser.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.OK)
{
return;
}
}
else
{
frmLogin frmLoginUser = new frmLogin(args);
if (frmLoginUser.ShowDialog() != DialogResult.OK)
{
return;
}
}
in function
public frmLogin(String[] args)
{
InitializeComponent();
//if the flag for automatic login is flagged true, then check that main was
//passed arguments for login(run from batch file). if not, go to regular login.
//enter an existing user and password
if (args.Length == 2)
{
tbName.Text = args[0];
tbPassword.Text = args[1];
this.btnOK.PerformClick();
}
}
P.S
sorry for the code presentation but for some reason I can't use the labels "pre" and "code",
since it tells me I am leaving the page and loosing all data.

Why are you even clicking on the button?? Don't bother.
Move the code that's in the OK button's click event to it's own method, say you call it PerformLogin, then call it from where you have your current PerformClick line. Obviously, remove this line since it's useless to you.
Rewrite your OK buttons click event handler to call this same method with the appropriate parameters.

Visual Studio 2005 Proffesional edition does not want to debug my .NET program because 'The Binding Handle Is Invalid'. I tried to disable Visual Studio hosting process and it worked for C# desktop app. BUT I cannot do it in ASP .NET project (there isn't such option).
After hours of Googling I found the same answer everywhere: I have to turn on 'Terminal Servises' or set it to the 'manual' mode. Unfortunately I cannot perform that -- I get a message "The service cannot be turned on because it is turned off or some of it's dependencies are turned off" (translation from Polish, don't know exact english version). And yes, RPC is enabled.
Please help. I would like to learn ASP.NET but it is difficult without debugging. Of course it is possible anyway but if I have $10.000-level MSVS I do want to use it's capabilities.
