Well that sure answers it. I'll have a look at the document mentioned there. Thanks mate! -Larantz for those about to code, we salute you Please refer to the Forum Guidelines for appropriate posting.

Hey First things first - check that the event is wired up correctly - think off the top of my head this is done in oninit or some other initialisation function within the page: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms743596.aspx If this doesnt fix it then make sure that ISS is using the correct version of .NET. If this doesnt work then google asp.net event not firing as there is loads of help (I had this problem too) - i cant remember how i changed the version of .NET but it is in the properties. Hope this helps Dan

Hi. Yes I'm using .NET 2.0, but it's not an SQL database. It's just a Windows Service which uses a xml-file for storage / database. My problem is the communication is through remote objects and events won't reach the client applications. Never heard of MSMQ. I'll google it :) -Larantz- -- modified at 5:19 Friday 11th August, 2006 Ah yes Messaging Queue. I tried that a while back with no success. Maybe I did something wrong back then. I'll give it another try. Thx. for those about to code, we salute you

i'm not sure whether somebody is still interested in this question, but the mistake is the using of proc.Handle. This is a process handle, but for sending messages you need a window handle. So take proc.MainWindowHandle.

Found another solution, though I'm still interested in an answer on the above question. The other solution is to pass other constants to the SHGetFileInfo(..) method so that the method retrieves icons corresponding to fileextension, and not from the file itself. I'll just post it incase someone else is having the same problems: In Win32 public const uint SHGFI_ICON = 0x100; public const uint SHGFI_LARGEICON = 0x0; // 'Large icon public const uint SHGFI_SMALLICON = 0x1; // 'Small icon public const uint SHGFI_USEFILEATTRIBUTES = 0x10; public const uint FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL = 0x80; public const uint SHGFI_TYPENAME = 0x400; In myClass hImgSmall = Win32.SHGetFileInfo( strAnyfilename, //this can even be a string to a nonexiting file Win32.FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, ref shinfo, (uint)Marshal.SizeOf(shinfo), Win32.SHGFI_USEFILEATTRIBUTES | Win32.SHGFI_TYPENAME | Win32.SHGFI_ICON | Win32.SHGFI_SMALLICON); -Larantz- -- modified at 6:55 Wednesday 31st May, 2006

I implemented iconbuffering now but it still flicks and takes up resources. I'll try with double-buffering. That should atleast take care of the flickering. When it comes to resources, maybe I can't improve that considering the fact that it's many paint operations. -Larantz-

If your camera's like my camera, I'm pretty sure it is :)

Solved it. I'll post the solution incase anyone else runs into the same problem. My extension is made up with dynamic contextmenus that vary in size and content according to the filetype etc. So I had identifier baseIDs like i.e: baseIDTxt 0, baseIDDoc 100, baseIDRtf 200; These baseIDs are then used when creating/populating the menus so it's easier to locate the correct commands when InvokeCommand is called. I'd just switch on the baseids: case baseIDTxt + 0: //menuitem index 0 //do something to txt file break; case baseIDTxt + 1: //menuitem index 1 //do something else to txt file break; The problem for me was that if I used a baseID larger then 100 for some of my menus, and the InvokeCommand for that specific contextmenu wouldn't show. So try and keep them below 100 and you should be fine. I now have a dynamic contextmenu with dynamic number of sumbmenuitems that varies for 4 filecases. I used four bases i.e: baseX = 0, baseY = 25, baseZ = 75 and baseLast = 100; -Larantz-

Hi, the DataGrid has an indexer which you could use: object value = myGrid[0, 1]; The other possibility would be to access the data through the DefaultView of the table you have bound to the grid. It is the one actually doing the sorting and thus accessing the data with it will always be in the correct order.
