1.How group textboxes and line and make line expand when dragging?

Hi John,

You can use the connectors in Word when the drawings/textboxes/shapes are within a MS Office Drawing canvas frame.

In Word 2002 and 2003 you can create a Drawing Canvas from
 Insert=>Picture=>New Drawing
In Word 2007
 Insert=>Shapes=>New Drawing Canvas

The drawing canvas size is limited to a single page in Word.

I remember doing this in the past, but forgot, how can i group/connect two
textboxes or other objects with line so when i dragging one of text boxes,
line is still connected to it and it dinamically expands?
Now i <<

3.TextBox WordWrap and Lines Property

Hi All,

I mistakenly just posted this to the VB group.  Sorry for the
cross-post.

I am working with a textbox in C# which pulls a set of lines (stored in
the database as text_type, text_line_seq, text_desc).  I am using three
text boxes to display previously entered text for selected users
(surgeons) to edit.  Each type of line has a specific maximum length
(55,56, and 74 characters).  The textbox must allow the users to format
their text (see EXAMPLE TEXT below) pretty much with just spacing.

I have the textbox properties set to multiline edit and I am appending
"\r\n" to each line as I pull it from the database and put it in the
textbox.

My problem is when a user typically adds a substantial amount of text
wordwrap will push "\r\n" down to the next line.  When saving back to
the database I am using a foreach(string Line in Lines) to save the
data and the result is that the line runs over the maximum length
allowed for the line.

Ideally, I simply would like to insert Environment.Newline wherever
there is a wordwrap.  I have been trying to use EM_FMTLINES (see
EM_FORMATLINES EXAMPLE) , but it has not worked so far.     I am not
sure where I should call the method (SendMessage) and exactly whether
this will result in what I require.

I keep telling myself I must be making this more difficult than it
needs to be, but the solution has not appeared obvious so far.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Mike


EM_FORMATLINES EXAMPLE:

public static extern int SendMessage(IntPtr hWnd,int Msg,int
wParam,int lParam);

public const int EM_FMTLINES = 200;

SendMessage(tbxDiagnosis.Handle, EM_FMTLINES, 0, new IntPtr(0));
