    Is it a good design to have a Class with List of class same class objects

    Let's look at your XML... you have an issue already with it.... you have two NRC/ARC in the root node... Do you mean to have that in the nested node and not the root node? I would probably just use the XML node writing functions already part .Net. Yours: <Bundle> <BundleId>...

    Strange keyboard problem

    I read it that he can use the keyboard to get into BIOS/etc which means the keyboard works... it sounds like to me he may have a specific driver loaded that is not compatible with this keyboard. Maybe use the old keyboard, remove the driver, load the new keyboard, and power back up... Walt...

    Modify Web.Config File Programmatically

    I would also recommend reading up on using a Try Catch Finally block. This way you can also catch and handle errors without totally crashing... Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    I am faced with a situation that I

    Mgmt should thank him for his excellent work. Explain that they are assigning those tasks to someone else because they would like him to concentrate on the tasks that are still remaining to him because they see those as more important at this time. Ultimately things have to be done for the...

    return to calling page

    You can store the page name in a session variable then call the "pop up" (really another page by your description)... then when you close the "pop up", redirect to the stored session variable. Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    Users moving to new subnet

    First, I would try to convince management to implement DHCP... makes life SO much easier... barring that, explain to them that you will have to spend a lot of time and money walking around to every machine and it may take a while. Personally, I can't imagine not using DHCP as it's such a...

    Dell vs HP vs IBM vs ?

    The client I am working for right now has gone Lenovo actually... you can try to see what they offer. They seem to be fairly decent. Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    I need a simple stand alone program written

    You would probably do better to either hire a student in college (or even high school for that matter) or try to develop this piece yourself. Even though it is simple by your description, the majority of people expect to get paid for work done. As a community, we help people with specific...

    Auto login after registration

    You can store a cookie on the person's machine and read that if it exists. Then if it exists, redirect to the proper page. This is one way of doing it... Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    Setting up 3 - 4 monitors with same screen displayed

    The other question you have to ask is, how far apart are these monitors? You don't want too long of a video cable if you can help it -- I think the longest that I've used was a 25 footer in a factory environment Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    Allow cookies to only be created once user gives authorisation

    This just goes to show you the depth of stupidity that our lawmakers possess to "protect us from ourselves"... sigh So, if a user decides not to use cookies, otherwise the site doesn't functino right, any idea of what you are going to do? Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half...

    Allow cookies to only be created once user gives authorisation

    Super Slow after use of Recovery Disks

    I'd seriously consider taking it back for service. To be honest, the recovery disks should configure everything the way it came stock, so if it is incredibly slow, that sounds like a hardware issue. Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    Advice to implement list of items

    Agreed, but the tree is still better than strictly a list... To OP: Go to nVidia's website and look for a driver for a video card... see how they do it (w/ filters I mean) Walt IT Consulting for Robert Half http://roberthalftechnology.com

    Advice to implement list of items

    Think of your data as a tree... each of your "sub categories" are "branches"... so to find a particular leaf, you have to first select the first branch from the trunk of the tree. Then as you move closer, you select another branch and so forth until the only left are the leaves to select from...

    How do you learn new stuff?

    Perhaps just get the jobs that you do know well... learn the other stuff on the side as a comparison. If you get a web development gig that uses C# w/ AJAX then great, do it. You can always spend a little time afterward or in your free time seeing if you can do it better in Silverlight. I...
