Thanks, Most of what I have seen are asp.net controls. Most of the winforms stuff is overkill. I will take a look at the links.

Time entry 'lost' in dtp

I am using a dtp on a form that has an OK button. If the user changes the hour on the dtp and hits the enter key, the OK button_Click event fires without the dtp hour getting updated. How can I prevent this behavior?

For example:
before entry, the dtpMyControl.Value.Hour == 1
the user enters a change so the control looks like 05:59:59
then hits the enter key (the '05' being highlighted)
the validation code that reads the hour still has dtpMyControl.Value.Hour==1.

I found my answer.

simply add a Focus call in the _Click handler like so:

private void buttonOK_Click(..)
{
...
buttonOK.Focus(); // If the dtp (or other) control didn't loose focus, it does now
...
}

Time stamp

Hi, guys
I need a time stamp, which can remember time when the source code is compiled for the first time. So DateTime.Now is useless.
How can I get it?
Thank you very much.

You mean like the "File Created" date that every file on FAT/32, NTFS, and most other file systems has? If you want to access this from code, use the FileInfo class along with the local path of your assembly, which you can get form Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location.

Hashtable Item

I know I am doing something silly, but I cant seem to access the Item property of a Hastable:

Hashtable myHash = new Hashtable();
myHash.Item;

Produces a build error
"System.Collections.Hashtable does not contain a definition for 'Item' "
But it sez in help that Item is a public property of Hashtable. Am using VS2003 Enterprise with Frameworks 1.1 SP1
Many thanks

In C# the "Item" property is accessed using indexer syntax. So instead you would write something like this.

Hashtable myHash = new Hashtable();
object value = myHash[key];

The Item property of HashTable is the indexer in C#. You access it using this syntax:

object val = myHash[objKey];

Making function DragDrop to a treeNode

Hi there!!

I´m having problems here. I want to make a drag and drop operation with a TreeNode of a treeview. I found that if I want to make the drag and drop operation with the TreeView it is possible. I just want to know if it is possible to make the same operation with only one node of the treeView.

Thanks for your help, Sérgio

That's what the TreeView.ItemDrag event is for. It fires when you begin dragging a TreeNode. To handle dragging and dropping within the TreeView, you additionally handle the DragOver and DragDrop events at a minimum.

There is actually a good example of handling these events in the documentation for the TreeView.ItemDrag event in the .NET Framework SDK.

Note that unless you serialize your TreeNode it will not be available to other applications (or AppDomains - without marshaling in the source application).

You need to cast the value.

E.g. int theInt = (int) ComboBox.selectedValue;

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do but you can always use the debugger watch windows to determine the type of the object.

How are you loading the combo?

webhay11-Oct-04 11:36

this my code:

private void cob_SelectedValueChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
label1.Text = cbo.SelectedValue.ToString();
SqlConnection cnn = new SqlConnection();
cnn.ConnectionString = "workstation id=UNKNOW;packet size=4096;user id=sa;data source=UNKNOW;persist security info=False;initial catalog=TestDB;";
SqlCommand cmd = cnn.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
//int x = (int)cbo.SelectedValue;
cmd.CommandText = "Select * from Val Where Cat_ID = "+cbo.SelectedValue+"";
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter();
da.SelectCommand = cmd;
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds);
lst.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
lst.DisplayMember = "Val_Name";
lst.ValueMember = "Cat_ID";
}

Thanks for your time ....

I assume that this is working ok? Or is it Returning the object name? If not, how are you filling the combobox, databind or by item? SelectedValue is only used with databinding, a ValueMemeber must be set.

The following will not work because it will return the object name.

i filled the combobox with databind :

SqlConnection cnn = new SqlConnection();
cnn.ConnectionString = this.ConnStr;
SqlCommand cmd = cnn.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = this.SelectCommand;
SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter();
da.SelectCommand = cmd;
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds);
combobox.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
combobox.DisplayMember = ds.Tables[0].Columns["Client_Name"].ToString();
combobox.ValueMember = ds.Tables[0].Columns["Client_ID"].ToString();

You are not properly binding your combobox. Try this:
combobox.DataSource = ds;
combobox.DisplayMember = "TableName.Client_Name";
combobox.ValueMember = "TableName.Client_ID";

Note it is not recomended to use `ds.TableName' for the datasource.
