• .NET Development Best approach for Product/Order system

• Software Development for Windows Vista Rules Editor

  I must be missing something simple but I have been unable to use the "System.Workflow.Activities.Rules.RuleConditionReference" within my workflow (CAG specifically). Everytime I select this option and click the ellipse to add a New Condition , the popup closes. If I enter text manually in the ConditionName field and hit enter, it will create the worklow.rules file with RuleExpressionCondition line. Next I try to add the expression by clickin on the ellipse and I get an error "An item with the same key has already been added". I have hand coded a rules file using other examples in hopes of it being recognized but with no luck. Am I missing something Jesse Jesse, I would suspect that your condition or ...Show All

• Commerce Server Implementing Inventory Catalogs

  Hi, Is there any good documentation available on how to implement the Inventory catalogs. I have a system with a base catalog for a specific country (US) and I have built 4 virtual catalogs based on this base catalog. The virtual catalogs (Wholesale, Retail, ...) are developed so I can manage specific product/category inclusion and exclusion rules based on the type of customer. I want to have 1 inventory catalog from which all 4 virtual catalogs pool their inventory from. With the default behavior the inventory sku key is based on the catalogname which would be different for each virtual catalog. What would be the best solution for this That uses standard pipeline components! If I need to do custom pipeline coding that ...Show All

• .NET Development Bad Data Error with Decryption

  I'm using TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider to encrypt and decrypt Xml files that are generated on the fly in two different places. In one part I'm allowing a user to download file, an XmlWriter writes to my CryptoStream which writes straight to the Response.OutputStream. Before any writing I call the following Response.Clear(); Response.AddHeader("content-disposition","attachment; filename=myXml.xml"); Response.ContentType = "text/xml"; Response.BufferOutput = true; The browser prompts for download, and everything is fine. I can then upload the file and have an XmlReader read from my CryptoStream which reads from FileUploader.PostedFile.InputStream and everything works fine. Now in the other place, I have an XmlWriter write to my Cry ...Show All

• SQL Server ISNUll problem. Where clause doesn't work properly when I use isnull clause

  Hey. I need to substitute a value from a table if the input var is null. This is fine if the value coming from table is not null. But, it the table value is also null, it doesn't work. The problem I'm getting is in the isnull line which is in Dark green color because @inFileVersion is set to null explicitly and when the isnull function evaluates, value returned from DR.FileVersion is also null which is correct. I want the null=null to return true which is why i set ansi_nulls off. But it doesn't return anything. And the select statement should return something but in my case it returns null. If I comment the isnull statements in the where clause, everything works fine. Please tell me what am I doing wrong. Is it possible to do this without ...Show All
