Just a thought, Make the program. It wouldn't be that hard, Or atleast i don't think it would be.

Well at least you was not Teaching the Teacher on C# after you paid 400 bucks on the course and books. I was really pissed. I spoke to the Dean about it, she said that I should have asked more about the class before taking it. "ASKED MORE!?!?" GOD for bid me assume! the teacher might know somehting about what they are teaching!!

Are you tring to figure out how to show the form or how to show it while the program is loading? If you are wanting to show it while the program load, then what i did was loaded the "loading form" at the ever beginning of the other form. then when it was done with all the other stuff I closed the "loading form"

Good point.. here is the link for the solution that helped me. http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/msbuild/thread/8d761321-304b-41d0-8cb5-eac9a21efd01[^] The link was giving to me by PsychoCoder

DID, But got help from another site. solved

I recieved this error when i try to build my project

Files has invalid value "<<<<<<<<<<< .mine". Illegal characters in path.

All I did was clean up some basic coding. It doesn't have a line reference. I did a full solution seach but found nothing.

My poor choice of words, was from the lack of not knowing the correct terminolgy for the issuse I was having. I know now that I was wrong in my description of the issuse I was having. Sorry again for the mistake but was the result of learning. A wise man said- You never learn unless you ask for help. :)

Perfect. thank you very much. this was exactly what i needed to know and a explaintion on why it wasnt working.. Thank you again!

I am having a problem with a timer in my program. I am sure I am missing serveral things that someone else will see easly. this is a short example of my code. private void button_click_1(object sender, eventargs e) { starttimer(); Dothewhile(); } public void starttimer() { timer1.start(); timer1.interval = 1000; } private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show("hello"); } public void Dothewhile() { while (Run == true) { // do other stuff and when it detects its done it makes Run == false } } I am assuming the while statment is over taking the timer event and i just cant see when the timer hits but dont know for sure because i am stupid. But i would like to have some input on the ideal why the timer is never seen unless i turn the while statement off. thanks danzar Superman was my hero till he got a real job.

Thank you. I thought I had searched the MSDN forums good before posting But as always I was wrong..\ Thank you Danzar

What is the way to convert hex data to a ascii string?

Hi, I want to be able to send keystroke to anther app that is based directx. I am using SendInput for the major part of the keys, but there are serveral keys that dont work with this fuction. (most of the ones that dont, calls a action of some sort). I just woundering if my next step is to start looking into directx api hooking or is there another way that i can send the keystroke over the sendinput that might work. Also i have tried the Sendkeys function but all it gets is the same key action on all the keys (whish is the ESC key). thank you very much Danzar

Thank you for the reply. I have modifed my code serveral time to try to make the struct more like you said. but to no avail can i get it to work. this is the code I have this time. Let me know what you see wrong on this one.. Thank you very much Danzar http://rafb.net/p/uPx4EW73.html[^]

Hi, I was woundering if some of the higher level C# programmers could help me with my code. I have read all the Doc. that i can find about it, But i still cant get it to fully work. If I comment out the keyboadx ref's the mouseclickx works fine. If I dont neather the mouseclickx nor the keyboardx works at all. I cant get the keyboardx to work in any fashion. I made a link to a paste it site because i didnt know how it it is looked at about paste long code in forums. http://rafb.net/p/bmuAVm81.html[^]
