C# Link Label Issue

[Pacmaney]

I'm working on a small assignment program for my programming class that involves making a small catalogue thing using structures. I tried to add a dynamic link label who's destination changes depending on the slider's value. However, I can't make the value of the slider's current position (named CurPos) a public variable which lets it be recongnized by the linklabel click event.

Here's my current code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace OOPAssignment
{
    public partial class FrmOne : Form
    {
        public FrmOne()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        struct Games
        {
            public String Name;
            public String Date;
            public String Engine;
            public String Score;
            public String Picture;
            public String Review;
        }

        Games[] Game = new Games[14];

        private void FrmOne_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string p = Application.StartupPath;

I've never worked with link labels before and I'm stumped, I would really appreciate any help I could get.

this line:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("IExplore", Game[CurPos].ToString());

won't work for a start, since you're casting the Game object to a string and not getting the URL you stored.

and you need to replace "Game[CurPos]" with:

Game[trbSlider.Value].Review;

[Pacmaney]

Wow it worked! Thanks man, shame the only I can do is rate polite

[Jinto]

I'd suggest letting it use the default browser the user has.

[cpp]System.Diagnostics.Process.Start( "IExplore", Game[ trbSlider.Value ].Review );[/cpp]

If you just launch the url, then it'll use whatever browser they have set as their default.

[cpp]System.Diagnostics.Process.Start( Game[ trbSlider.Value ].Review );[/cpp]
