• Windows Forms Deploy chm file with click-once

  I'd like to include a chm file with the application that I am deploying, but no matter what subdirectory of the project I put it in I can't seem to get the file to be included in the deployment. The help file does work correctly from my application on the development machine where I have it located in the project bin directory. Right now, my deployment is just to a directory from which I burn a CD. Thanks, jerryK Have you changed the BuildAction property of the file to "Content" I think that's about all I did to get it to work.   ...Show All

• Architecture General business object requirements

  For those of you who have worked on medium to large sized projects, or anyone who has an opinion , I would like to know what types of logic an application needs in the business layer. If the objects expose properties and collections, is a simple validation on write all that's needed I guess the objects also have methods that do various things. If anyone feels like offering any insight into the kinds of things their business objects do besides store bits of information that would be greatly appreciated. I'd also like to know what types of exceptions are generally thrown when persisting to a database. What about errors in the middle of bat ...Show All

• .NET Development HTTP and HTTPS Over My Socket

  I need to be able to HTTP and SSL over my own socket (Socket class).  The big picture is that I'm writing a combined client and server for a protocol that sends XML messages via SOAP over HTTP and HTTPS with and without keep-alive and gzip.  I'd write a web service, but it looks like that won't give me sufficient control of the underlying socket.  With .NET 2.0, it looks like my life will be eased with SslStream, GZipStream, and XmlSerializer with XmlTypeMapping to help with SSL, GZip, and SOAP.  I think that only leaves HTTP for the non-SSL case. 1) Is there any .NET class that can make my life easier to do HTTP when I’m ...Show All

My first thought were to put some code in the RowDeleting routine. I have tried putting in a popup message along with e.row.canceledit and e.row.rejectchanges but the row still gets 'deleted' (until I click on save and get the FK error) Any suggestions hi, you can depend on t ...Show All
