• Visual C# Reading Registry Key

  I am working on a C# application that can take a computer name and connect to that computer over the server and check several of the local security policies and create a log of what policies are incorrectly set.  In a nutshell, it is an automated way of going through a security checklist rather than manually looking at each policy at each computer.  I am currently trying to read the "Audit Policies" such as "Audit Policy Change" etc.&n ...Show All

• SQL Server Relative paths

  We have a growing issue where we have a relative dtsconfig file (which stores the absolute base path of the ETL packages). This way we can keep the ETL projects failry portable - only having to modify one value in the dtsconfig file. The master package that defines the dtsconfig location (which is config/Default.dtsconfig) usually interpretates this location to be relative the project. The problem is that every now and again when you ...Show All

• Visual C# A newbie question on Interfaces - How to call the methods?

  hi,    I'm new to C# and OO in general. I can't seem to undestand the pertinence of interfaces.   From my understanding, the interfaces define the signature of the methods while the class implements these methods. How is this better than simply doing away with interfaces and simply implementing the method in the class   Apologies for the rather novice question, an example to illustrate the pertinence of interfaces would ...Show All

• .NET Development IHasXmlNode and XPathNavigator

  Reading the docs on IHasXmlNode I assumed an XPathNavigator object would always implement IHasXmlNode.  The examples always use CreateNavigator() on an XmlDocument object.  I assumed this was just an example. If I use CreateNavigator() on an XPathDocument object, that XPathNavigator object does not implement IHasXmlNode.  For example: XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(@"file.xml"); XPathDocument document = new XPathDoc ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to get newly selected item of a ListBox with multiple selection?

  I find that the ListBox control does not provide all functions that exist in its Windows native counterpart. For example, I have a ListBox with SelectionMode set to MultiExtended. I need to know its index when a new item is selected. But I failed to find what events to handle. Another less-used function is set focus rectangle to a selected item when a ListBox has more than one items selected. Or I might be wrong. Thanks for DMan1's rep ...Show All
