• Visual C# Working with database data in textbox controls instead of datagrid?

  I've learned how to display/update data from a database in a datagridview control. But when working with one row at a time, i would prefer to make a nicer GUI, with textboxes/checkboxes etc. Are there any easy way i can achieve that Reading and displaying is one thing, but what about updating Does anyone know where i can find any tutorials that demonstrates working with data in other controls than the datagridview Example: A GUI with a button that fills the textboxes with data from a data source, a button that updates any changes to the db, and buttons that lets me select previous/next records. Btw, i'm working with a Mysql database, so i ...Show All

• Visual Studio Undoing checkout

  Hi everybody, I'm trying to implement a continuous integration process here, and I'm using the following article as a baseline: http://dougrohm.com/cs/articles/56.aspx There's one thing there that's giving me problems, though. In one of the steps on the process described on the article, a "version.txt" file gets checked out, modified, and then checked in when the process is done. If there's a problem and the build process fails, the file never gets checked back in. Then say the problem with the build got fixed. In theory, the next build should succeed. However, it's failing because it can't check the version.txt file out, ...Show All

• SQL Server Nested Table Relations in SQLXML

  Hi Folks This question applies to SQL Server 2000 and SQLXML. I have a table with columns as follows: AccountID ~ ParentAccountID ~ AccountData Sample data: 1 ~ NULL ~ This is a parent account 2 ~ 1 ~ This is a child account As you can see, there is an inherant tree structure in the above data: ParentAccountID is a foreign key to Primary Key AccountID. I wish to query these using a FOR XML and retrieve a document like the following: <account> <accountid>1</accountid> <accountdata>I am a parent account</accountdata> <account> <accountid>1</accountid ...Show All

• Windows Forms Simplest inherited control

  Hello all, Just started looking at user controls for creating composite user interface elements, this is great in visual studio 2005. What I am now trying to do, is create a simple button control (with a couple of extra fields and a common look, let's just say red for this example). all the functionality I need apart from the extra fields is already in the button class. All I want to be ale to do at design time is adjust the size of the button accordingly (the button will obviously already be red after dropping it on to the form) to fit with different places in my application . Can anyone tell me how to do this I have look ...Show All

• .NET Development How i get new ID after inserting data in table through command.ExecuteNonQuery

  Hi,    I want to get newly inserted ID after inserting data in table. I am using command object's ExecuteNonQuery. I don't want to use MAX in another query. Is there any way to do. I am using ad-hoc query not a storedprocedure. Also i don't want to use @@identy because it is a global variable and at the same time if any other insert statement fires the value of @@Identy Thanks in Advance..... Mahseh... @@identity is limited to the current connection, so you will get the last id of the record that was inserted within the same 'connection' as the connection that you use to do the select @@identity. You can also ...Show All

• Visual C# CodeDomProvider.CreateCompiler - need a replacement.

  I am posting it second time today. For some strange reason the first post disappered after an hour or so. It is about the method: CodeDomProvider.CreateCompiler(). The method appears to be obsolete but it is used in a code sample I have copied from MSDN. There should be a replacement for this method. I would like to know what it is. Thanks. All the methods from the ICodeCompiler interface have been moved to CodeDomProvider itself.  So you dont need to call CreateCompiler on a CodeDomProvider instance.  You just use the CodeDomProvider instance itself. FYI: this is described in the MSDN docs for ICodeCompiler Hope that helps. ...Show All
