Thanks SHelton, I will give it a try! Manch

I agree. They could have done a lot more with the groupbox.

Thanks for your response! It was because I had changed the backcolor of my form to a light color. It seems Visual Studio picks a color that is a good contrast to the forms background color when it can not properly display the etched effect. I should have figured that out sooner, one of those...

Can you make the groupbox border appear as etched. I swear I have seen this in many VB .Net screenshots. I have tried changing the flatstyle property but with no luck. If I change the flatstyle to standard I get a grey border, but not etched, and any other setting for flatstyle and I get a...

I have an application that will allow users to scan in images. Here are my questions: 1. Is the image box the only .Net control that can be used to dispay images in a Windows Forms application? (Not counting third party controls) 2. Is there a way to print an image from a picturebox? I have...

Anthony, I am just started to look for twain drivers for .Net but have not found anything yet. I was just wondering if you have found anything yet? If you have not I will pass along anything I find that is usefull. Manch.

vidru, sam2601 I will check the VB.Net forum and I will try using a formula field as a sql expression. Thanks to the both of you for you replies. Manch

Vidru, I am connecting to SQL Server using the SQL SERVER data provider in VS .Net 2003. Thanks for the info though, it is useful to know. Manch

sam2601, I am using the version of CR that is bundled with Visual Studio .Net 2003. From what I can see this version does not have a version number, but rather is just considered a special version for .Net. In my Field explorer I have only the following options: Database Fields Formula Fields...

Is there a way using formula fields or another method of retrieving values from records in the detail section and placing them in the page header section? For example, I have a report with 3 records in the detail section. I want to grab a value from a column in each of the three records and...

I would like to use a sql expression field, but can not find how to access the sql expression editor. I am using CR for Visual Studio .Net 2003. There is no Sql Expression Fields listed in my fields pane. I also do not see anything on the two toolbars included. I do not see any Crystal...

synapsevampire, I didn't think of including both tables in one dataset. I am new to .Net and still think in terms of the old recordset object. Thanks for the advice! Manch

First, I want to make sure I am in the correct forum. I am using the Crystal reports tool that comes with Visual Studio .Net 2003. If there is a more appropiate forum please let me know. My question is fairly basic as the last time I used Crystal was over a year ago and I am not a power user...

Kris11, In case you are interested, I did find a solution. Since I already know the column name I want and just need its index, I looped through the ColumnStyles and checked the mapping name for each column. When I find the column I am looking for, exit the loop. The value of my looping...

Kris11, I have already tried that. I also thought it would work, but GridColumnStyles.IndexOf actually gives you the index of a GridColumnStyle object within the GridColumnStyles collection. A GridColumnStyle object holds the actual DataGridColumns. Thanks again for trying. I will let you...

Thanks for the reply Kris11! Unfortunately, Grid.Item does not accept a column name (string) as its second argument. It only allows an index(integer). If you know of another way, of if I am incorrect, please let me know. I do appreciate your reply. Manch.

I need to dynamically retrieve the column index of a Windows Forms datagrid column. To reference the column I used the following code: Me.GridAddresses.TableStyles(0).GridColumnStyles.Item("StreetName") Unfortunately, the column itself does not have an indexof method or any property that...

I am using Visual Studio .Net 2003 and have a Windows Forms application. I have a strongly typed dataset on a form, and the controls on the form are bound through design mode to that dataset. When I enter an invalid date in a control linked to a datetime field, no error is generated when I tab...

I have a .Net 2003 WinForms application. I have a form that uses a SQLDataAdapter along with a Stored procedure to make inserts to a table in my SQL Server 2000 database. The table has an Instead Of Trigger for Inserts that checks a business rule and either raises an error or makes the insert...

I just realized what is causing it. I am using an InsteadOf Trigger in SQL Server for Inserts on this table. The Trigger checks for a condition and then either Raises and error or completes the Insert using the Inserted table. It seems that the .Net does not catch any sql errors that occur on...
