Error embedding .swf in Windows Form C#

Hi, I am trying to develop a Windows Form application that loads a .swf file either from a server or the local computer. I have followed the tutorial outlined here (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/stock_history03.html). I am include the Shockwave Flash Object and drag and drop an instance of the object on my Form. It builds successfully, but when I run the application it crashes immediately.
Here is the line of code it crashes on which is in the Form designer file:
((System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize)(this.axShockwaveFlash1)).EndInit();
It throws this error:
Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
** axShockwaveFlash1 is the name of the object I am using
I have installed the latest versions of Shockwave Player and Flash Player as of 5/5/09.
I am developing in Visual Studio 2008 on a Windows Vista Business 64-bit machine. I have the target platform as x86.
Last note, when I close the IDE I get another error which only came up after adding the Shockwave Object COM to the toolbox. The error says "This program requires a missing Windows component". When I search for a solution it says to download latest version of Flash (already done )
Thanks in advance!!

Object Referenced Error When calling the Windows Form during Runtime

Hi,
I am getting Object reference errors when running windows form during runtime. In debugging mode in MS Visual studio 2005, I am not getting this error. I'm calling the window form from menu and called the window in a thread as suggested in one of forums . I don't see anyone in the forum mentioned this problem I have. Any help would be deeply appreciated. Below are the error and code samples.

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer Error in 1 Workstation after upgrade of PL

Hi all,
We just upgraded SAP from 8.82 PL02 to 8.82 PL15.
Afterwards, in just 1 workstation, Crystal Reports layouts have Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer error I attach.
Before the upgrade this error did not happen.
No permissions or authorizations were changed in the workstation.
The Crystal Reports layouts remain working fine in server and in the other workstations.
In the workstation following are installed:
- Operating System Windows 7;
- Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5;
- SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for. NET Framework;
- Crystal Report 2008 Runtime SP6;
- Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Native Client.
All, but the operating system, are equal to the other workstations.
User has edit access to SAP folders, temp and access to the attach path.
We already uninstalled SAP client and client agent and re-installed it but with no avail.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Pedro Mariano

Hi San Xu,
Thank you for your input.
However I'm facing problem with each software is suitable.

Crystal Report Windows Forms Viewer - No Error Popup

Similar to this post: Error message that says "No Error" from CR Viewer, I have just upgraded by Application to .net 4.0 and Crystal Reports 2010. The report viewer works fine the first time a report is loaded, but when I change the parameters on the report, and put the updated report back into the report viewer, I get the message shown above. The report does not change its parameters and the updated report is not displayed. The code in question is setting the date parameters for the report. The user can select new date parameters from the form that encloses the report viewer. The code subclasses the Report Object code to add additional functions through interfaces. The IDateRange interface provides a starting and ending date range for the report using a property on the report class as follows:
    Public Property EndingDate() As Date Implements IDateRange.EndingDate
        Get
            Return _endingDate
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As Date)
            _endingDate = value
            Me.SetParameterValue("EndingDate", value)
        End Set
    End Property
In addition, the immediate Window shows the following message:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.dll
The code in the Report Viewer looks like this, see line marked in blue for when pop-up appears:
''' <summary>

    Dim fld As FormulaFieldDefinition
    Dim bRefresh As Boolean = False
    Dim rpt As ReportClass = CType(Report, ReportClass)
    Try
        If CRV.ReportSource IsNot Nothing Then
            rpt = CType(CRV.ReportSource, ReportClass)
        End If
If TypeOf rpt Is IDateRange Then
    With DirectCast(rpt, IDateRange)
.        StartingDate = dtpFromDate.Value
.        EndingDate = dtpToDate.Value
    End With
    SetTitleLine2(DirectCast(Report, ReportClass), bRefresh)
    bRefresh = True
Else
    If TypeOf rpt Is ReportClass Then
       fld = rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields("FromDate")
       If Not fld Is Nothing Then
            fld.Text = "Date(" & dtpFromDate.Value.Year & "," & dtpFromDate.Value.Month & "," & dtpFromDate.Value.Day & ")"
            bRefresh = True
        End If
        fld = rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields("ToDate")
        If Not fld Is Nothing Then
            fld.Text = "Date(" & dtpToDate.Value.Year & "," & dtpToDate.Value.Month & "," & dtpToDate.Value.Day & ")"
            bRefresh = True
        End If
        SetTitleLine2(rpt, bRefresh)
    End If
End If
    If Refresh And bRefresh Then
        If dtpToDate.Value <> CDate(dtpToDate.Tag) OrElse _
           dtpFromDate.Value <> CDate(dtpFromDate.Tag) Then
                System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
            If CRV.Visible Then CRV.ReportSource = rpt ' The popup appears when this statement is executed.
            If CRV.Visible = True Then CRV.Refresh()
            dtpToDate.Tag = dtpToDate.Value
            dtpFromDate.Tag = dtpFromDate.Value
           Return True
        End If
    End If
Catch ex As Exception
    DisplayException(ex)
End Try
Return False
End Function

Problem has been resolved. I downloaded Support Pack 8 (v.13.0.8.1216) from this location. I then applied the fix from the entry above:
With CRV ' Report Viewer Control
    If .Visible Then
        If .ParameterFieldInfo IsNot Nothing Then .ParameterFieldInfo.Clear()
        .ReportSource = rpt
        .Refresh()
    End If
End With
And no more annoying "No Error" messages.

Can you define "sometimes" a bit more?
Is it after a number of runs of a report?
Is it on a particular report?
Is it after you do certain operations on the report (paging, zooming, dill down, print, etc., etc.)?
Can you duplicate the issue if you isolate the report to a new test app?
Did you happen to notice if the issue existed prior to FP 3.5?
Is this on your dev computer or a client computer?
OS?

Transparent Windows Forms in Windows Embedded Compact 7

I am looking for a solution to make the background of a Windows Forms in a Windows Embedded Compact 7 device transparent. These approaches have failed:
- override void OnPaintBackground with empty code block
- using the open source project AlphaMobileControls

Sorry, I thought that article had more detail. Now I look at it again it's rather less useful than I thought.
bitblt is copying pixels.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa452879.aspx
The way this would have to work ( afaik ) is you copy some proportion of the bits out the rectangle behind your window.
If you want low opacity rather than completely transparent you would merge them with whatever colour you want the background to look a bit like.
You'd be painting a picture onto the background in the onpaint.
If your user moves the "transparent" window then you need to copy the background from the new location.
If it were me I'd push back on the requirement.
Hope that helps.

Adding Engine component causes: "Compiler errors occurred when generating a Windows Forms wrapper..."

I got this error when I tried to drop a TestStand Engine class onto my main form in VisualStudio.NET.
Compiler errors occurred when generating a Windows Forms wrapper for ActiveX control 'AxNationalInstruments.TestStand.Interop.API'
The error message went on to say that it saved the source in ./obj/AxInterop.TS.cs so I added that to the project. When I try to build it, I get this error:
The designer must create an instance of type 'System.Windows.Forms.AxHost' but it cannot because the type is declared as abstract.
I am using TestStand 3.0 evaluation, Version 7.1.3088 of Microsoft Development Environment 2003, and .NET Framework 1.1 Version 1.1.4322 SP1.
Is this aximp.exe problem?
Can someone suggest how to fix this?
Thanks,
Jeff

TestStand installs pre-built interop wrappers for the TestStand engine and all the TestStand UserInterface controls. You can find them in \API\DotNet\Assemblies\CurrentVersion\.
However, the best thing to do is usually to add the ApplicationMgr control to your .NET form and then call form.axApplicationMgr1.GetEngine() to get the engine. Doing this automatically adds references to the interop assemblies to your project. You can find this control in the TestStand tab of your .NET toolbox when you have a form active.
Ideally, you should start with the .NET simple operator interface examples which are in \OperatorInterfaces\NI\Simple\CSharp\ and \OperatorInterfaces\NI\Simple\VB.Net\

Passing parameter to stored procedure from windows form getting error

I've written a procedure which shows the data in a table according to the table flag selected from the windows form. My code is:
--- stored procedure ------
CREATE PROC [dbo].[PROC_SELECT_TABLES]
@TBL_FLAG INT
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
IF (@TBL_FLAG = 1)
SELECT * FROM MHT_APPUSER ;
IF (@TBL_FLAG = 2)
SELECT * FROM MHT_ISA11 ;
IF (@TBL_FLAG = 3)
SELECT * FROM MHT_ISA22 ;
SET NOCOUNT OFF;
END
GO
Now, the module for calling the above procedure
namespace DAL;
public class DisplayData
SqlLayer layer = new SqlLayer();
public int tblFlag { get; set; }
public DataTable GetData(int tblFlag)
SqlParameter[] p = new SqlParameter[1];
p[0] = new SqlParameter("@tblFlag", this.tblFlag);
return layer.ExecuteDataSet("PROC_SELECT_TABLES", p).Tables[0];
Now the SQL LAYER, containing the ExecuteDataSet and database connection code:
namespace DAL;
public class SqlLayer
// sql connection code
public DataSet ExecuteDataSet(string commandText, SqlParameter[] sqlParameter)
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(commandText, this.conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.AddRange(sqlParameter);
SqlDataAdapter sda = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
sda.Fill(ds);
return ds;
Now the windows form layer:
using DAL;
namespace BookKeepingSystem
public partial class DisplayDataForm : Form
DisplayData view = new DisplayData();
private void GetData()
view.tblFlag = 3;
DataTable dt = view.GetData(view.tblFlag);
dgvDisplayData.DataSource = dt;
public DisplayDataForm()
InitializeComponent();
private void DisplayData_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
GetData();
private void btnExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
Application.Exit();
When I run the code I got the error:
"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application...
Procedure or function 'PROC_SELECT_TABLES' expects parameter @TBL_FLAG, which was not supplied"
I can not figure what is missing with my code. Please can any one point out please.
Thank You!!!

Try something like this for starting -- do just this procedure to see if it works first.
private DataTable GetDataTable(SqlConnection conn1)
SqlDataAdapter daS1 = new SqlDataAdapter();
daS1.SelectCommand = new SqlCommand();
daS1.SelectCommand.Connection = conn1;
if (conn1.State == ConnectionState.Closed) conn1.Open();
daS1.SelectCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
daS1.SelectCommand.CommandText = "yourStoredProcedureName";
daS1.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@ParamName", SqlDbType.Int, 4);
DataSet DS1 = new DataSet();
daS1.Fill(DS1, "tbl1");
return DS1.Tables["tbl1"];
Note: in the CommandText part place the name of your stored procedure. In the Parameter part put the name of your parameter exactly as it is in the actual stored procedure. Also, (if you have not done this already) make sure your stored
procedure runs OK -- first -- test out your stored procedure in Sql Server Management Studio. If the procedure runs OK in SSMS, then try it from you app. Just create a simple form with one button . Place GetDataTable() code under

Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms Error

Hello All,
   I have created a Crystal Reports .Net Executable and it runs fine on the PC that it was built on. However, when I copy the exe application to another system and try to run it, I get the following error message:

Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I am using Crystal Reports 2008 and Visual Studio 2008.
Thank you in advance.

A couple things here:
Your application is referencing the Windows form dll for the bundled version of Cr that comes with VS.NET 2008 and NOT the Crystal Reports 2008 runtime. You need to change the references in the project to 12.xxx assuming you have Crystal Reports 2008 SP0 installed (this is needed for it to work with .NET 2008)
You need to make sure you deploy the runtimes for the appropriate version. If you get your application upgraded to use all of the CR 2008 runtimes you will then need to deploy the runtimes to the machine you are deploying to. You can do this by using the merge modules or the server install msi to get them on the machine.

Embeding Flash Animation in Windows Forms

Hye!
This is my first questioin on this website, because this is
my first time working with flash animations. I've made a flash
animation in Adobe Flash. Now what i want to do is embed it in
Windows Forms Application. Im using Visual C++ 2005. How can i show
a flash animation on this form.
Please Help!

Hi,
the only chance I see is with a Java Bean that support Flash animations. I did search the Web a while ago when this question came up the first time, but wasn't able to find a bean that supports a recent version of Flash.

Firefox doesn't play embedded swf

I've looked on many forums, including Firefox, with no real answer. Running Firefox 4. It just doesn't play embedded SWF. My Adobe Flashplayer is up to date, so is the plugin. The page displays properly. But the area that should be displaying a movie is just represented by a tiny square. No error message appears. The same page doesn't show the movie in IE9 either.
Now from looking at the page information, it just requires Flashplayer 6 and above for the SWF area. I do have Flashplayer 10. The plugin says Shockwave Flash player 10 is up to date. Many other pages with different types of embedded movies play properly.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Dynamically embedded swf, has it ever worked

I have to repost it. Wondering what adobe will say about it.
I have tried this for a couple of days. I created a swf object in window.onload (also tried to create it directly while the script was loaded ), then call an AS function from JS. statically embedded swf works for both IE8 and FF, FF also fine for dynamically loading. In IE, this call externalinterface.call("echo", "as returns " + b); always shows "as returns false". The callback function has never worked in other approches with dynamic creation. Anyone has good experience?
Thanks.

has it ever worked or is an Adobe bug? anyone knows?
