Don't use data for the name of an attribute.

add in some mouse events for the picture box. When the user clicks with the mouse, register its location (so, a start point) When the user releases, register the loaction and you have an end point. Now, create a new bitmap the same width and hieght as your selected area. Create a new graphics object from your new bitmap (Graphics.FromImage) Then draw the selected area of the picture box's image, to your new bitmap Rectangle srcRect = new Rectangle(start.x, start.y, end.x-start.x, end.y-start.y) myGraphics.DrawImage(myPictureBox.Image, 0,0, srcRect, GraphicsUnit.Pixel) Then, set your pictures image to the bitmap you created earlier. Don't forget to dispose of your graphics objects and whatnot. You also may need to add some checking between the start and end points, so you don't have any negative values around. As for drawing the rectangle you want to crop as your dragging the mouse, register for the OnPaint event, and draw a rectangle between the start point, and the current location of the mouse. I hope i havn't been to confusing there, i just kinda typed as i thought. My current favourite word is: Waffle Cheese is still good though.

Actually, it doesn't dump out of the loop if there's a space, it just doesn't append it to the output string. The while loop will continue to process until EOF is reached on the file. If you wanted it to stop the loop if an emptry string were to occur, you would need to add a break; statement in there. -- modified at 19:02 Thursday 23rd August, 2007 BTW, I am zerosity, just had to change the username for the forums as I never did that when I registered way back in time. :D

Hi, if you have .NET 2.0 or better, you can use generics such as SortedList<string,int> and that should allow you to do list[name]++; so it gives you the same base idea, a more readable source, and it eliminates the need to cast to int, so it does save some CPU cycles. I trust that is what you meant, but if so the HTML eater has swallowed it. list.Keys is the collection that holds all the key values, I guess you could feed it directly into a ComboBox through its DataSource property. If you need to know more, please read up on it either on your local MSDN that came with Visual Studio, or on http://msdn2.microsoft.com[^] :) Luc Pattyn [Forum Guidelines] [My Articles] this weeks tips: - make Visual display line numbers: Tools/Options/TextEditor/... - show exceptions with ToString() to see all information - before you ask a question here, search CodeProject, then Google

anyone?

could you give me a simple example

All I can do is guess that you are asking how to access the "columns" in the DataRowView. I really hope this is a school project. Anyway, I recommend you "read" some documentation on DataRowView from the MSDN Library which is available online from Microsoft. Also there are many MANY articles here on CodeProject that contain sample code for working with Database related issues. I would bet some of them show how to access columns of a DataRowView.

Have you tried here[^]. There is a handy search function you can use. only two letters away from being an asset

since your saying "chunk of data" i would prefer using datasets because..if your using datareaders each time u connect to the database whenever u execute a query..but datasets you can work in disconnected mode.. aneef

anyone or should i start a new tread?

doesnt seem to want to compile in c#2005

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("user","pw"); doesnt want to work Error Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Net.NetworkCredential' to 'System.Globalization.CultureInfo'

example please

I didn't mean my articles, I meant codeproject. Search for registerhotkey Api and you will find an example my articles

thats it thanks

Ok, that is sort of what I thought. I did find one property in the process class that may help you. It is called Responding. Here is the MS help on it: If a process has a user interface, the Responding property contacts the user interface to determine whether the process is responding to user input. If the interface does not respond immediately, the Responding property returns false. Use this property to determine whether the interface of the associated process has stopped responding. If the process does not have a MainWindowHandle, this property returns So I guess in that case you could have the other app always running and checking every so often to see if the winword has stopped responding. If after checking a few times it still isn't responding then kill it and relaunch. Ben

thats it your good
