• Tomarn Create error log text file

  How do you go about creating an error log from a text file, then once the file is made, write back to that file if another error is caught I can take care of the Try,Catch statements, but I need a little help creating the file in a desirable location, then if it exists when another error is generated, find the file and add to it. The location would be a shared file, do you think there would be any share violations from a file that was created remotely I thought of using a db file but, if there are network issues, that wouldnt be good since this app will be shared across a network.

• Gpg Why enumeration?

  Hey guys, thanks in advanced. I am reading through a beginners C# book and it cover enumeration, but yeah in great detail as far as why to use it. Can someone explain why you would need or want to use enumeration over another option. And what are other options if there are Thanks a ton. Hello All. Anil: Yep, you can, if you don't mind casting them to (int) every time. See this topic for a discussion about that very thing. If you don't need the collection to be a strong type, and you only want the integer value, then you can use named integer constants, unless you don't mind the type casting. HTH.
