Hello,
I'm trying to save some properties of some windows controls into a XML File.
Most of the properties work when I save them as String
(TypeConverter. ConvertToString ). But some complex properties like image,
collections such as tabpage's cannot done with this method.
Anybody can help me on how to save and later restore the complex properties?
Thanks in advance...

Ozden,
I would try and use serialization to do this. You can use a
SoapFormatter to do this. The drawback to this is that the object has to be
marked as serialized. If this is not the case, you can try and use the
XmlFormatter. The drawback to this though is that it will only serialize
public properties, and some objects can not have their state fully restored
by just having the public properties set. For example, image data isn't
exposed publically (the raw bytes).
In these cases, you are going to have to serialize the data yourself in
some manner.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Image for example support ISerializable so it should be easy to serialize
it.
The problem are controls that do not support ISerializable , in fact all
controls has MarshalByRefObj ect in the inheritance line so they are not
serializables, you will have to do a custom serialization for them.
Cheers,

Hi Ozden,
Why do you not just look to the RESX files which are created when you use
the designer with VB.net forms and/or C# forms.
You have to open it and than look to it in the XML view.
If you use the imagelist from the designer on your form with some pics in it
you see also images
I hope this helps?

Hi,
I'm trying to save a bitmap file so I can print it later. I have
Image.Save("sImage.bmp",System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp);
The file sImage.bmp shows up in the bin\debug folder but when I try to print
it (or open it), it's completely black. I know Image is the correct picture
because when I immediately print it, it works. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

I want to be able to reset a complex property in a PropertyGrid. I know that for properties that are ValueTypes you can include System.ComponentModel.DefaultValue in the declaration of the property. But, for complex property types (e.g., instance types) this does not work because System.ComponentModel.DefaultValue requires a constant value
In order to indicate if a property should be serialized you can include a boolean function named...

Hi All
I have a program which takes photos of members using a web cam, then saves
them as bitmap files
The bitmap is used by a Picturebox to display the photo and clicking on a
button enables the camera and another button takes the photo and saves it
In VS 2003(VB) all worked fine, but since moving up to VS 2005 (VB) when I
try to retake a photo and save it I get error messages
