Hello Kisran, I am not sure whats wrong at your side. But your code works perfectly at my end. In case you are not able to resolve it, you can probably try this slight modified version of your code. BEGIN CODE Dim dr As DialogResult = MessageBox.Show("Do you wish to close the Form", "Closing Form", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo) If dr = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes Then e.Cancel = False Else e.Cancel = True End If END CODE I hope this works.

Hello, First of all, you need to set the DataSource and DataMember for the BindingSource. Then you can use set the desired bindingSource.ColumnName in the Text property under DataBindings() in the Properties Windows(Located at the top on the window) of the TextBox. In the MoveNext and MovePrevious buttons, you can simply define the following code: BindingSource1.MovePrevious() or BindingSource1.MoveNext() For more information, you can visit the given link: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/grid/BindSourceBindingNavCS.aspx[^] I hope this will help.

Hello, This will not be possible to implement. Reason being that the AutoCompleteSource only takes String collection and would sort the colection only in string format. Regards,

Hello, Well if you do not want to select all rows and then delete, then you can implement that in Button Click or some menu selection. Use this code to delete all the rows. You will have to manually loop through the rows and delete them one by one. for (int i = this.dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 2; i > -1; i--) this.dataGridView1.Rows.RemoveAt(i); I hope this will help.

Hello, If I understand correctly, you want that each time application is started, the value in the TextBox should be incremented for the last value that was used. Well if thats the case then you will have to store the value each time the application is closed and then read it back again into the text box and increment the value. I hope this helps.

Hi, Well I am not able to find any such links, but probably you could try this given code which implements sliding of panels. The basic implementation includes decreasing or increasing the height of the panel on Timer tick. For example: We have a Panel, Timer and a Button control. On button control we are closing and opening the panel. BEGIN CODE bool close=false; private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (close==false) { if (panel1.Height > 0) panel1.Height -= 10; else { timer1.Enabled = false; close = true; } } else { if (panel1.Height < 190) panel1.Height += 10; else { timer1.Enabled = false; close = false; } } } private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { timer1.Enabled = true; } END CODE I hope this will help.

Hello Vijay, Define a variable in child form of type MDIForm. Dim _mrm As MainForm Now define a function in Child form which takes an argument of type MDIForm. For example: Public Sub parentmin(ByVal mainform As MainForm) _mrm = mainform Me.Show() End Sub Set the following code in the LostFocus() event of the childform Private Sub Form1_LostFocus(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.LostFocus _mrm.Focus() _mrm.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized End Sub Now From MDIForm, you should call the Child form in the following manner(Lets say on menu button click): Dim frm As New Form1 frm.parentmin(Me) I believe this should help. Regards, Allen

Hello, You can try the given solution. Lets say we have two forms Form1 and Form2. In form2 we define a function which takes the Form1 as argument. Form1 _frm; Public Sub ShowForm(ByVal frm As Form1, ByVal img As Image) _frm = frm Me.Show() End Sub Lets say we will return a value of type integer to Form1. For that we will have to define an integer variable in Form1 and a Property for that variable to set its value. Dim _val As Integer Property Val() As Integer Get Return _val End Get Set(ByVal value As Integer) _val = value End Set End Property On Button Click in Form 1 we will open the Form2 in the following manner: Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim frm As New Form2 frm.ShowForm(Me) End Sub Now in FormClosing of Form2, we will set the value. Private Sub Form2_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing _frm.Val = 2 End Sub I hope this helps. Regards, Allen

Hello, Could you explain your requirement on how and when you wish to pass the value to your method. Is there any specific action after you wish to pass the data. The normal procedure to pass the data could be in either of the given forms. For example: private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { //mymethod(this.dataGridView1.CurrentCell.Value); int row, col; row = 3; col = 2; mymethod(this.dataGridView1[col, row].Value); } public void mymethod(Object obj) { MessageBox.Show(obj.ToString()); } I hope this helps.

Hello, There is no other way apart from this to draw rectangles. However, the only problem was the calculation part which was working only when you draw from lefttop to right bottom. However, while doing vice versa, the height and width was getting negative values. Try this piece of code in MouseUp event()

    private void Form1\_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs mouseEv)
    {

        textBox2.Text = Convert.ToString(mouseEv.Location);

        Graphics graphics = this.CreateGraphics();
        Rectangle rectangle;            

        if (mouseEv.Y > mouseDownY)
        {
            height = mouseEv.Y - mouseDownY;
        }
        else
            height =  mouseDownY - mouseEv.Y;
        
        if (mouseEv.X < mouseDownX)
        {
            width = mouseDownX - mouseEv.X;
            
            rectangle = new Rectangle(mouseEv.X, mouseEv.Y, width, height);
        }
        else
        {
            width = mouseEv.X - mouseDownX;
            rectangle = new Rectangle(mouseDownX, mouseDownY, width, height);
        }

        graphics.DrawRectangle(Pens.Red, rectangle);
                    
    }

I believe this should resolve your issue. Regards, Allen
