    Scheduled Email

    I used to have a program running in the background. I used threading and just made the thread sleep for 24 hours. I'm not sure if this is the most efficient way of doing it, but, at any rate, the task scheduler must be doing something very similar.

    tlbimp.exe

    I am trying to make a wrapper so I can export data from asp.net to excel. I know I am supposed to use the tlbimp.exe tool, but I don't seem to have it! I searched my entire c: and nothing came up. I don't have visual studio.net but shouldn't this be included in the .net sdk? I'd highly...

    Preserving Viewstate When Adding Dynamic Controls

    Perhaps the best option would be to use a datalist. Using a dataset, a row is emitted for every row in the datasource. Inside this row you could put your own table with colspans, rowspans galore. Perhaps you could put a div/panel around this nested table and turn visibility on/off for the...

    Best reporting option

    I want to be able to print reports with ASP.net. I've seen Crystal Reports a few time doing searches. I've also seen Active Reports. What is my best option for printing reports generated by asp.net? Exporting to .pdf/.xls would be useful too, but not essential. Of course, if I can do a...

    Datagrid Add Multiple Rows

    I've decided to use a datagrid to display the existing entries and have a separate control for adding entries. Seems to work.

    On click update command not taking new values

    Here's an abstract and a link. Notice the Page_Load Event Handler! Notice that the Page_Load event handler for the editable DataGrid only calls the BindData() subroutine when the page is first visited. That is, it is not called on subsequent postbacks. This is vital! If you change the...

    Preserving Viewstate When Adding Dynamic Controls

    Unfortunately, I don't have the answer to your problem. However, I might still have a nugget for you. "Because of the formatting of the Table, I cannot use a Repeater or DataGrid, also because not all cells in the table are DataBound." I don't this this can be true. The repeater...

    Help me subdue rogue, autonomous security

    You're exactly right. As it happens, I figured out the answer after a couple days. Too bad you didn't show up sooner! You still earn A StAr!!!! Thanks I'm a little hyper.

    number rows shown in dropdownlist

    How do I set how many rows appear in a drop down list when a user expands it? The default looks to be somewhere around 10 but I want to make it about 20. Thanks.

    Proper OO design for app; expert advice needed, please

    I'd say if your program is large enough to warrant two people working on it, it's probably too big to be in one class. Even if technically you aren't breaking any OO rules, for all practical purposes you are because the code is too bulky and unmanageable! Also, breaking code into different...

    On click update command not taking new values

    Ok, I think I see your problem. In your update function, you databind without having a datasource: DataGrid1.EditItemIndex = -1; //DataGrid1.DataSource = some source DataGrid1.DataBind(); As to databinding in (!Page.IsPostBack), generally it's a good idea. Databinding should be related to...

    String on a Bitmap

    Do you mean that you want one object, like MyExtendedBitmap, that has a Bitmap and a string in it?

    newbie: "missing using directive or assembly reference"

    If you must know about LATE... Very few people take good pictures. I happen to be one of the masses. When my friends and I received our yearbooks last year, we naturally found each others pictures as grounds for ridicule. I looked like a Colombian drug lord in my picture. Now usually I'm...

    Timer crashes app

    Have you considered using a separate thread? Or is that what you are already doing? You could make the thread sleep for .1 seconds and check the next performance counter. I'm not familiar with a timer per se - just using threads.

    Cost of .NET

    The only costs would be indirect - if you wanted to buy VisualStudio.net, SQLServer, antennae balls, etc. I use a free text editor (Crimson Edit 3.51 it's TIGHT) and mysql so screw you microsoft :P Of course, running .net means you run your server on a microsoft os using IIS. They don't...

    Cookies/session variable help

    Source code perhaps? The only other thing that comes to mind is something I read in a reference book. It was to make sure that you reference the cookies case-sensitively. Apparently some browsers won't deal with cookies how you want them to unless you use the exact same case. Otherwise, post...

    Report per Month - summation

    If you copied and pasted that, I see a typo. You are saying GROUP BY [DataDate] but you said SELECT ... As [Date]

    adding C# class to vb.net project

    Have you read up on the common language runtime? If not, the bottom line is that yes, you can use c# classes with vb.net classes. In fact, you can use any .net language with any other .net language. I suppose there's more to the CLR than that, but that's what affects us programmers earning...
