Love CodeProject. When a comment or solution is added to a question, I am automatically added as a follower for that question. Can a button be added to follow a question without having to add a comment? Have the button change to unfollow if currently following a question.

Hmmm.... Can you be a little more vague?

Churchhill's mother was an American. His father was the duke of Marlborough. Winston was the second son so he did not inheret the title.

What is the tool?

Thanks for the help. I'm looking for the UI portion - the part to select the columns graphically. The data reading and parsing is the easy part. I did find this Column Definition Control[^]. I may have to convert this to C# for my use.

Is there a control available for .Net (preferably with source - C# if possible) for selecting the columns of a fixed width text file? I'm looking for something similar to Excel for the Text Import wizard (step 2 of 3) that provides the functionality for selecting the columns that the fields start. Thanks, cvogt61457

I'm maintaining some old VB6 code (eventually will be moving to VS2008) It has many circular references between objects. I'm looking for a way to enumerate the outstanding object references remaining at the program end to be able to verify that the circular references are all disposed of properly. Also, is there a way to get some notification or callback with a reference is defined? Thanks, Chuck

The file format used by the equipment is FAT. The disks written by the equipment can be read on a PC and vice versa. The equipment can format a disk and then be used with a PC.

It has to look like a floppy to the controller. Also, need both write and read. I have found something that might work... http://www.plrelectronics.com/floppy_to_usb.php[^] Thanks for the reply.

I have some old manufacturing equipment that has 3.5" floppy drives. I am wanting to replace the floppy drives with something else like a USB stick. I must use the FDD interface because of the limitations of the equipment. Are there any available products already available? If possible, I would like to access the storage over a network connection also.

There is a ListBox as a Private Internal class to my class. This is what VS is seeing and is causing the error. I can do one of the following: 1. Put a simple class derived from Control before my class in its file 2. Move the internal ListBox class to a different file. 3. Make a designer or attach one to my class. Thanks for the help.

I have a class derived from a DataGridViewColumnHeaderCell. When I attempt to open the file for viewing, VS attempts to open the file with a designer. I'm not sure what designates the file as having a designer. The DataGridViewColumnHeaderCell doesn't have one. Is there a way to prevent VS from trying to open the file with a designer? My Imports are:

Imports System.ComponentModel
Imports System.Windows.Forms.VisualStyles
