• .NET Development ObjectDataSource Doesn't Work With WSE 3.0

  I have a web method which, when called, deletes a record from the database. I can call this method directly from the client and the method works fine. However, when I try to delete a record using an ObjectDatSource, the method never works. It fails saying that the usernameToken was not received. I finally discovered that the direct call passes the correct usernameToken to the web service but the ObjectDataSource doesn't pass one at all. All it passes is the parameter for the ID of the record that needs to be deleted. (I discovered this by inspecting the SOAP messages.) How can I configure the ObjectDataSource to also pass the correct S ...Show All

• Architecture scalability implies using web services?

  Hi everyone I am an analyst- programmer here in Spain(I don't know what is the difference with a programmer, i usually do the same things) I am studying a lot about architecture right now because i am in a very big project in the company that recently has hire me, perhaps the biggest project of Spain.

• SQL Server Is it possible not to keep together textfields?

  Hi, This all appears when exporting a report to PDF: I've a report with a label and textfield in the upper third, below the textfield there are some other controls. My problem is, that all works fine as long as the text for the textfield is short enough to fit the page. If the text gets to long I get a nearly blank page with only the label on it and the textfield on the next page. I found no property to change this behaviour. I want my textfield to split up to multiple pages, just as Access does it! I want to see the first part of the content on the first page and then page footer, page header and then the second part on the next pa ...Show All

• .NET Development tabControl bugs in VB.Net 2003

  I have been working with tabControls quite a bit lately and have noticed a couple of annoying bugs.  One of these bugs are that I set the order of my tab pages collection and when I compile my project the tab pages end up in a different order all by themselves.  Another problem is that when I try to delete objects that are on tab pages I am unable to do so by right clicking and clicking on delete; the delete, copy, and cut options are greyed out.  Selecting the object and pressing delete doesn't work most of the time either.  The only thing that does work sometimes is to delete the control from the "Windows form designer ...Show All

• .NET Development TableAdapters.....

  Is there a way to expose the SqlDataAdapter within a TableAdapter as a Public property even after re-generating the TableAdapter I can't use TableAdapters, because they don't expose the SqlDataAdapter as a Public property since I need to pass down the DataAdapter to a separate DB I/O method. Not a generated DB I/O method within the TableAdapter. I'm forced to use the Component Designer and create a SqlDataAdapter like I have been doing in VS.Net 2003. The following code is generated when creating a TableAdapter: <code> <System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCodeAttribute()> _ Private ReadOnly Property Adapter() As System ...Show All
