using System.Runtime. InteropServices ;

[DllImport ("user32.dll ")]
public static extern int SendMessage(Int Ptr hWnd, int Msg, int wParam, int
lParam);

private const int WM_NCACTIVATE = 0x0086;
// to activate
SendMessage(Chi ld.Handle, WM_NCACTIVATE, 1, 0);

// to deactivate
SendMessage(Chi ld.Handle, WM_NCACTIVATE, 0, 0);

there's also a select property, that's not intended for use from "your"
code.

Child.Select();

Maybe someone knows why it's not intended from "your" code?

There seems to be two ways to put things on the clipboard ( I don't mean different formats): SetClipboardData and OleSetClipboard If I want to get data off the clipboard do I care how it was put there? What about Drag/Drop; is there more than one way for the source to make data available Is it always OLE?

Hi all, I have read a lot of postings and web pages about drag and drop and treeviews, but could not find an answer to my problem. Sorry, if I missed something. I am trying to drag and drop treenodes defined by myself and don't understand, how to get the nodes data in the dragdrop event. I'm not very experienced in .NET and for sure there is a simple solution. I've written a short sample program, based on well known examples,

Hello: I have spent two days on drag and drop now and I'm getting no where. I am trying to drag an item from a listbox and load it into a datagrid (actually a child of the datagrid, but I'll be happy for now to get to the parent.) I can get the selected row of the target, but that is not the same as dropped_on row. I've tried to get the mouse_up event, but drag and drop seems to override the mouse_up. I've tried the hitTest but it...

I am wringing a small and lite Media Player to fit my custom needs for usage while programming. I had written some drag and drop functionality like i do with other programs, but hey, the ActiveX doesn't support Drag and Drop. I've been checking loads of search results, but no dice, no info on how to add drag and drop to an activex that doesn't has it by default, or a hack to get it to use the drag and drop of the form itself, or...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
