• Windows Forms Best Way to Make DataGridView Pick Box

  In VS 2005, ASP.NET 3, I would like to make a pick box which would be a form containing a DataGridView where: - The user could type in one or more characters into a text box - When they stopped typing for say 1/2 second, the program would find the first match, if any, of the chars already typed in, and highlight that ro in the DataGridView. - They could click on "select", key in CTRL + S, etc, and the form would return the primary key of the selected row, then close. My question is the quickest way to populate the grid, then the quickest way to loop through the records to find a match. Lets say the grid contains 1,500 records. One column is a company name. The primary key value is not visible to the user. I've used such a form in ...Show All

• Windows Forms Hide horizontal scroll bar

• SQL Server Problem with job

  Hi there, Actually I'm trying to replicate a production database to a development server using merge publication. (I'm using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.2047.00). When I created the publication job (automatically when creating the publication) I specified to get executed every 15 minutes, and later I created a subscription (push subscription) I specified it to execute continously. So I made some chenges on the data on the production server, and they get replicated every minute aprox. , and not in 15 min intervals as I defined before.... When I go to the server agent I can see the job for publication and It is supposed to be executing the publication every 15 min as I defined but this doesn't happen !!! Is this a ...Show All

• .NET Development Why are there extra items in List after Deserializing?

  Actually, I know why. What I need to know is the best way to get around this. Here's the deal: I have a class that exposes a List<>. In the constructor of this class, a couple items are added to the list. i.e. public class MyClass { private List<OtherObject> m_list; public List<OtherObject> List { get { return m_list; } set { m_list = value; } } public MyClass() { m_list = new List<OtherObject>(); //every instanced of this class starts with objects in the list m_list.Add(new OtherObject()); m_list.Add(new OtherObject()); m_list.Add(new OtherObject()); } } When serializing this object, everything looks c ...Show All

• SQL Server LIMIT'ed to TOP in TSQL???

  I have worked with TSQL quite a bit with different projects... I have recently had a slew of projects that got me to start using MySQL for the database... I know that may be sacralige here; however, it is relevant to my point. I have always had a problem in TSQL that the TOP attribute doesnt quite do what I want. I would like to pull the TOP 50 records from a data set, but I want to pull them after the initial 200 records. I have come up with several ways around this, however, none are efficient. The reason I bring up the MySQL usage is because there are two commands in MySQL to which work Postregres, Oracle, basically any PLSQL DB. LIMIT (start param, rowcount param) AND OFFSET (start param) These make page numbering very simple and effi ...Show All

• SQL Server LDAP - HOW DO I CONNECT TO LDAP DB FROM SQL SERVER 2005?

  This is something that should not be so difficult, but it is proving to be very cumbersome. I need to query an LDAP database on a Linux server FROM a sql server, namely sql server 2005. I have found bits and pieces, but can’t seem to put it all together yet – it should be easy, but it’s proving to be very difficult. It seems like you can either link an LDAP server through sp_addlinkedserver OR through enterprise manager/sql server studio, you can create a LINKED SERVER. The problem is HOW to do this. Here are the parameters for the ldap server: Server name: serverabc Ldap info (which I don’t know how to label) is: 'ou=Hosts,dc=mc,dc=vanderbilt,dc=edu'. I was able to somehow get this to work last week, but now it ...Show All

• .NET Development How does the web service uses the App_Code.dll

  I have noticed that the App_Code.dll is missing from \Bin directory when debugging a web service using VS 2005 but it does appear after publishing the web site. I'm using a web project that has been converted from VS 2003. My question is - how does the CLR run the web service code in debug mode without using a dll I guess the IL is being stored somewhere... Thanks! Gil, The DLLs as well as the PDBs are there.... but not in the bin folder. ASP.NET 2.0 uses a dynamic compilation feature and it now puts the DLLs in the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files instead of in the bin folder. Take a look at this folder you will find the missing files.... When y ...Show All
