In my current project I want to implement a checkbox that, if checked, replaces all strings in labels, tabs, etc. currently being shown on a form with a different string.
For example, If checked, all instances of the word "car" would change to the word "truck" all through out the program.
I'd rather not go through a do a .replace on every single string in the code. I was wondering if there was some way to "intercept" output strings and replace them on the fly; something like making a string-listener. Any help would be appreciated!

I am no GUI/WinForms program but this would be my personal approach. Add all of these UI elements to a List<T> in the forms constructor. Then in the "replace box checked event handler" you can just iterate over the list applying the same change to all the items. It's by no means a perfect solution but it does mean you only have to statically reference each of the items once. After they're in the list you can operate on all of them very easily.

I am using Windows Forms .NET C# for this project
I am making a school project for a cafe ordering system. And the coffee aspect is a simple custom controller that allows users to pick out a size of the coffee, how many sugars and creams they want. My issue is that I then have to take that user control inputs and store them in the main form list and inside a ListBox as a display of an order.
Does anyone know how to store user control inputs into a main form List<>?
The best way is to create a class to store info about order, let's call it class "Order". Each order will be represented by instance of this class (you pass your control's values as parameters to the constructor). You can store orders in the List<Order>.
To add it to the ListBox, you must override ToString() method:
public override string ToString(){ return "onfo to show" }
This method will show info about order from your class in the way you like.
P.s. for more specific help provide sample code of what you have tried since now.

I have a website dropdown that is populated from a SQL query. The values in the dropdown are from a table column and are like:
ABC-0123
ABC-0124
ABC-0125
ABC-0126.01
ABC-0126.02
ABC-0127
DEF-0123
DEF-0124
DEF-0125.1.01
DEF-0125.1.02
DEF-0125.2
I have a button to generate a new number based on what is selected in the dropdown. For example, if ABC-0125 is selected, ABC-0128 would need to be created since it's the next number in sequence. If ABC-0126.01 is selected, ABC-0126.03 would need to be created.
I'm looking for ideas on how to perform this. I considered just using the dropdown or querying the database directly.
I've split the selected value as a start:
String strDocFamily = drpDocFamily.SelectedValue;
string[] strDocTiers = strDocFamily.Split('.');
This may be open ended, but I'm looking for some suggestions on how to proceed. Thank you.
A solution might be to split the storage of the data into two or more columns, one for the alphabetic part ('ABC') another for the 'family' (0128 - the first set of digits) and others for the other tiers. You could then directly look up the maximum value of the 'family' column based on alphabetic. For example:
SELECT MAX(family-number)
FROM table-name
WHERE alpha-part='ABC';
Here is a UniqueID generator that can be easily adapted to generate a similar sequence to the one you need.

if (Operators.CompareString(this.ParentForm.ActiveControl.Name, this.Name, false) == 0)
{
base.Focus();
}
From What I have experience in VB6,the above code doesn't work because they are never equal if the users didn't change to the same name.
From Example, the UserControl Name is ucCalendar, When I drag to my From, the name will automatically change to ucCalendar1,even though I can change to ucCalendar but usually we won't do that.
I think the coder want to compare whether the UserControl is the only control or ActiveControl on the Form so that he can force to focus it.
I don't know this C# works or not. Please tell me.
There is nothing in the WinForms code saying that two controls can not have the same name. The reason you think that is that you're looking at it from the designer perspective, when you use the designer it won't let you have two controls with the same name just because it uses there as field names for them in the code, and as you probably know there can not be two fields / properties / variables with the same name in the same scope. As a matter of fact there is no need for the Control's Name property to be anything.

I am using devexpress XtraGrid. If I filtered this grid using a value related to specific column, I want to get that column(s) and value(s) in c#. Can any body help???
Regards
It looks like you need GridView.ActiveFilter.Criteria property.
It returns CriteriaOperator which is actually expression tree (just because DevExpress gridview filtering can be complex - not by single column).
In your simple case (filtering by one value in one column) you can just convert it to string by .ToString() and then parse string you'll get.
It will be something like [columnName] = columnValue string, and parsing it not a problem.
In complex cases (when it's a real expression tree) you can create your own class having implemented IClientCriteriaVisitor interface and traverse expression tree using CriteriaOperator.Accept method.
See example of such traverse implementation here.

i am trying to create a table in c# which should look like at example above and it should be usable in a loop. example: i have two variables called "text" and "author" big box belongs to text and right bottom box belongs to author. those variables available in a loop. what i want to is fill those boxes and make it compatible with loop. i managed to solve this with textboxes but i couldn't figure out how to make them stay under another one.
The easier way (that i am aware of) to do what you want is with an usercontrols and a flowLayoutPanel so we do it as follow
Create an UserControl
create it with panels or textBox in the way you want your table to be, i did like so
Create a flowLayoutPanel
put it where you like it to be and set those properties
this.flowLayoutPanel1.AutoScroll = true;
this.flowLayoutPanel1.FlowDirection = System.Windows.Forms.FlowDirection.TopDown;
this.flowLayoutPanel1.WrapContents = false;
add as much table like UserControl you want in it the result should be as follow
