Hello, In my application (net2.0) I have a few threads. I want to stop the threads when the main form is closed. Now I'm not sure what I have to do. Normally I would implement a IDisposable interface. In the form exists this function already and it is not virtual. What is the best way to implement this? Which event I should use? Regards

Hello, If I use the tab to go through the datagridview it is added automatically a new item. Here I use the ListChanged Event and ItemAdded to Update another internal list. To hold the list up to date I have to remove also the items when a row is removed. When I have made no changes to the Item and I press in the last cell another time the tab key the last row is removed, and after that another time added. But now I have the problem that I can't find any event which happens before the row is removed to hold my list uptodate... Has anyone an idea? Regards Hansjörg

I have tested this also. it doesn't work. At the moment I have made an workarround in serializing the array as Register0, Register1 ... It is not a good solution, but it works. I hope to remove this workaround in the next days, weeks... Regards Hansjörg

I hope that nobody write this program for you!

Hello I have a strange problem. I have implemented the ISerializable interface for 2 classes. the GetObjectData implementation of the first class is: public void GetObjectData(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context) { List lstRegister = new List(); info.AddValue("Text", this.Text); foreach (Control c in this.Controls) { Register reg = c as Register; if (reg != null) { lstRegister.Add(reg); } } Register[] registers = lstRegister.ToArray(); info.AddValue("Registers", registers); } the serialization constructor is the following: protected VisualTabPage(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext ctxt) : this() { this.Text = info.GetString("Text"); Register[] registers = (Register[])info.GetValue("Registers", typeof(Register[])); this.Controls.AddRange(registers); } for the Register class I have implemented also this interface and it was working well: I have tested it with the following helper class: [Serializable] internal class SerializeTab { private string name; public List visObjects = new List(); public string Name { get { return name; } set { name = value; } } } Now if I Deserialize the object, there is a Register[] array with one item, but this item is null. Has anyone an idea what can cause this? Regards Hansjörg
