    Moving Outlook Express Files

    I'm changing computers and want to transfer the contents of several Outlook Express folders to the new machine. I'm running XP Professional and Outlook Express. How do I find these folder on the local drive and copy them to my new machine? I read prior postings that indicated that emails were...

    iis and network problem

    Thanks "FoamCow?......." I sat back a while and tried to figure out what was different. Seems that the latest version of XP Pro or its version of IIS automatically throws up a Windows Firewall for my protection. I turned it off and was able to pull up the pages remotely with no problem. I...

    iis and network problem

    I've done this before, but can't seem to get it right this time....... I have a new desktop running XP Professional and IIS. The desktop is on a local network with several other computers. From the computer with the IIS,I can browse to the index.htm file in the root directory...

    Validator Controls, Client Side?

    Thanks for all the responses. I think I'm getting it... Initially, I tended to think validation controls were all I needed to cover my tail. As I picked up more about how they worked I started to see potential problems particularly if someone wanted to do harm. I think Thomas Greer summed up a...

    Validator Controls, Client Side?

    Thanks for the quick reply. I realize that javascript will usually be enabled, but if it's not, I would be open to passing bad data back to the database......(crash) Hadn't given it much thought until a discussion of how controls work came up. You're right about validation server side as...

    Validator Controls, Client Side?

    aspx validation controls suchs as the required field validator are client side validators, right? That being the case, is aspx generating javascript (jit) on the client side to perform the validation? If it is, then a client with javascript disabled wouldn't execute the validator code? If all...

    Catch as Exception error........

    Thanks for the suggestion. It certainly sounds like the problem could be Thread abort. I'll add your suggested code and see what happens. The odd thing is that the exception occured when I loaded to the remote server then stopped occuring.......... I'll post findings Thanks again. TT

    Catch as Exception error........

    OK, I'm feeling a little dumb here......... I added the innerException to the email sent to me in the catch block and uploaded it to the remote server. Now, of course, there is no catch triggered when I response.redirect to PayPal......Go figure. I'll keep trying to get it to trigger the...

    Catch as Exception error........

    I have a Try --> Catch --> End try block in which I save input data to a database, send an email to the customer then (depending on payment type selected) transfer to PayPal or not. The block works fine and catches errors properly. The problem is that when I do a transfer to PayPal using a...

    CONFUSED: ADO Connection String not working...

    Ingresman, Thanks!!! for taking the time to re-post your instructions. You are, of course, correct. I was a bit (or a lot) dense yesterday when I was working on this. It was right there all along "ODBC". I just took an existing ASP.Net page and used it as a starting point for a Q&D attempt at...

    CONFUSED: ADO Connection String not working...

    I've just started working with MYSQL and have it installed on my personal machine. I can create databases and populate using MySQLyog. Where I am running up against a wall is with getting a connection string put together to connect to the database from an application. I'm used to using Access...

    asp.net and javascript?

    First, yes you can use asp.net and javascript in the same application. Net does the server-side stuff while javascript handles whatever can be done on the client-side. As to passing variables between the two, yes and no.... Asp.net and javascript don't share session variables, but you can get...

    Accessing DataGrid ItemStyle BackColor Property

    Thanks to both nooro and Isadore. I started the post not knowing how to change the datagrid backcolor at runtime and now have three methods! I really appreciate you taking the time to provide responses. Regards, Tom T

    Accessing DataGrid ItemStyle BackColor Property

    I finally found the basic solution to setting the datagrid row colors. In the onItemCreated event handler the following works: e.Item.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.aqua The limiting factor is that it use the system drawing preset colors which are somewhat limited and called by name instead...

    Using MsgBox in validation

    Validation controls, particularly the validation summary control are really good controls that can help make the page validation robust. The javascript popup I posted is good when you can't, for whatever reason, use asp validation controls, but if you can use them they are the way to go for a...

    Using MsgBox in validation

    You'll have to generate a client side script from your server side valication sub. If Not IsDate(txtHireDate.Text) Then response.write(&quot;<script language='javascript'>alert&quot; _ & &quot;('Hire date is not valid.')<&quot; & &quot;/&quot; &&quot;script>&quot;) end if

    Help me in setting backcolor of particular Cell

    If you can identify the row you want to work with, you can use this code in the ItemCreated event to set the backcolor of a cell. e.item.Cells(2).backcolor=system.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromOle(&Hff66ff&) Good Luck TT

    Accessing DataGrid ItemStyle BackColor Property

    Thanks for searching. I have found a syntax that works, but it looks way too clunky to be commonly used. If I put the following in the OnItemCreated event handler, I can get the row color changed: e.Item.backcolor=system.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromOle(&H99ffff&) I figure there has to be a...

    Accessing DataGrid ItemStyle BackColor Property

    Thanks Isadore. I have that code and have looked at it trying to figure out how to convert it to a syntax I can use to set the row color. I guess I need to figure out an event other than mouseover or mouseout to hang the change on. There should be some kind of direct way (ie without...
