    Structuring Application Question

    Hi all, Moving from VB/C# development to PHP and beginning to love it. Anyway, here is a question: I'm writing a web app, and it is basically to allow businesses to track their clients (this is a specialty app, not your run of the mill CRM). I plan on doing all the hosting for it, etc. In...

    Suggestion for tracking downloaders, people who purchase software, etc

    Sorwen, thank you for your insight. Any suggestions on a customer-management solution to track customers, licenses purchased, etc. I'd hate to recreate the wheel there, but can't really find much to track customers for software developers. Thanks, chris ~~ Chris ~~...

    Suggestion for tracking downloaders, people who purchase software, etc

    I'mm not sure where to post this but since I'm developing in VB.NET I'd start here :) Anyway, I'm just starting out a new software company and began releasing my software product. I'm trying to figure out how other companies track people downloading their trials, and sending a reminder email...

    Using column description as column header instead of column name

    I am currently using a DATAGRIDVIEW... I have several "configuration" tables, basically tables that hold lists like customer type, activity type, etc. and each table could have additional attributes (like checkboxes) for each item in the table. Instead of making a form for each table, I have...

    I finally figured out how to do this! lol I found a little hole in the wall that gave CODE examples instead of drag&drop / point & click examples of using Typed Datasets. Anyone else who may be confused, please visit: http://www.wewill.cn/n1787c22.aspx Thank you for your help Sorwen. ~~...

    VS2008 - Data Designer - How to do other db queries

    Hi Sorwen, I'm not really sure how to explain this but I'm going to try. Currently, I have NO database connections coded by hand. I designed all of the dataset in the IDE via the Data Designer. I have forms with GRIDS and point & clicked the connection to the data. I have forms with...

    VS2008 - Data Designer - How to do other db queries

    Thank you again, I got all that. I have several TA's designed, but I do not know how to use them from *code*. Example (just 1 instance of several): I have a username/password box. The user fills them in and clicks LOGIN. I want to, via code, verify the USERNAME/PASSWORD via the TA. Or...

    VS2008 - Data Designer - How to do other db queries

    I have them designed in the data designer in the IDE. So far, I've. Only needed to use grids and data entry controls to interact with the dataset/tableadapters. But I have a zip code field I'd like to be able to do a city/state lookup in the db and things like verify username/password and I'm...

    VS2008 - Data Designer - How to do other db queries

    Ok... How do I access table adapters and queries in my dataset. Example. Datatable named client and table adapter named fillbyclientid (or if I want to get just a single value--both are possible). Thanks! If you could give example code that would be awesome. Chris Sutton...

    VS2008 - Data Designer - How to do other db queries

    Ok, I'm completely confused here: I am using vs.net 2008 and have the forms all set up (grids, data entry forms, etc) using tableadapters i designed in the IDE using the data designer. However, sometimes I just want to get basic information from the database using a SELECT statement, or maybe...

    Data Access - I'm giving up on the 2008 stufff

    I'm trying to figure out this new stuff in VB.NET 2008 that didn't exist in 2003. I was trying to use the GUI to create some data detail forms using the DataSet wizard, but it is not saving any of my data when I do the updates. I've tried the adapter.endedit with the .update command...

    "Show More" details link

    Thanks Joe, but I'm not looking for something that simple. I want the detailed information to display in a panel or something on the same page, where the detailed info displays between record 1 and 2. Kinda like an accordian. Chris Sutton http://www.ruoktech.com

    When "Prompt for Profile" selected in Outlook 2003, OL doesn't work

    Ok.. this is a strange one and its been driving me nuts for a long time and cannot figure it out. I have 3 profiles set up for Outlook 2003. If I have "Always use this profile", Outlook will open up properly without any issue. If I have "Prompt for which profile to use", Outlook tells me...

    Join multiple colums in 1 table to 1 lookup table

    Thank you both for the information. I understand the normalization part. I was simply trying to do something quick and dirty today to have it done due to timing. I don't use Access ever, but I needed a quick DB so that's why I went this route.. thank you again!! Chris Sutton...
