• Visual Basic ASP / MS access - BEST Practices

  PROCESS #1: I have IIS hosting an asp file that collects data (asp forms), then user clicks button and it gets sent to another ASP form that the user can verify all the data is correct and click another submit button. When you click teh submit button, the information is then added to a MS Access database. (access v11.6566) PROCESS #2: The information the user submitted to my access DB was a credit card and address information. My bank only excepts HttpsPost of an XML file and sends back an xml file of the credit cards processing details. I am able to do this with a seperate ASP form and read the xml file sent back and fill the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office The deployment doesn't work always...

  As I finally succeeded to install the RC VSTO version on my machine, I decided to deploy and to make it available to all my users... However, I just received 3 messages: 2 have been finally able to install it...one not again :(... As I can read here , there are some cases where even VSTO may fail... Any news about it Any possible solution Thank you LastHope Yes, I did (however, somehow I'm not sure it works correctly, even if I followed that guide : I thought that the installer would have installed the prerequisites, but it didn't, as my users told me) All of them tried to install my plugin made without VSTO many times, and they alread ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Frequent incorrect build results - projects skipped that are out of date

  I have a solution with 17 C# projects - two .EXEs and the rest DLLs, including a number of unit test projects. I can't begin to relate how often I run into problems due to incorrect build outcomes - one or more projects were not built even though clearly out of date. I see this sort of thing when running tests from the test manager (which sometimes completely refuses to even try to build anything and just complains that it can't find the output file of the build that it never initiated) as well as other scenarios that should cause a build.  I've checked that all the appropriate dependencies between the projects are specified in the ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I compare two TimeSpan objects to see if they overlap

  Is there a way to compare two TimeSpans to see if they overlap For example: (1/1/2006 - 1/31/2006) overlaps (1/15/2006 - 2/14/2006) (1/1/2006 - 1/31/2006) does not overlap (3/1/2006 - 3/10/2006) . I want to do programatically determine whether two date ranges overlap. How can I accomplish this Unfortunately TimeSpans do not contain dates, instead they contain the span of time between two arbitrary points in time. In order to determine if one date range is within another, you would first have to construct DateTime objects that represent the actual boundaries of your ranges with something like this: private bool ...Show All

• Visual C# How to check enum?

  I have an enum public enum ReadMode { All, FromEnd, FromStart } In my code there is possible to call Read(..., ReadMode.FromEnd | ReadMode.FromStart) but inside the method, how can I check what read mode is really specified (multiple modes are accepted) now I use if ((mode & ReadMode.FromEnd) == ReadMode.FromEnd) { } if ((mode & ReadMode.FromStart) == ReadMode.FromStart) { } but result is not as expected. It just works not properly. There is a really great article from Edward Smoljanovic about masks and flags: Masks and flags using bit fields in .NET . Here is a little resour ...Show All

• .NET Development (Yet Another) OleDB Database Update Problem

I have to finish a simple program by friday and although the code works I have a few problems: I have a database with 2 tables "Table1" and "Table2" Each Table have 4 fields which are the tablenumber + F + column number So in table1 we have 1F1, 1F2, 1F3, 1F4 And in table 2 2F1, 2F2, 2F3, 2F4 The code uses an OleDbCommandBuilder to create the queries.

This was ofcourse rectified by using [ ] around the tablen ...Show All

• SQL Server System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The item '/foldername' cannot be found

  I am trying to figure out how to correctly reference the directory to my subscriptions: Dim subs As Subscription() = rs.ListSubscriptions( "/SSS" , Nothing ) System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The item '/Hedi' cannot be found. ---> FYI: I replaced sss for privacy purposes only here because the "/" character is being escaped. You don't need to do this when using the SOAP API. In your code, check "rs.Url", and confirm that is pointing the the server and instance that you have actually created the item on. If it is, then confirm that you have appropriate permissions to actually see the item ...Show All
