• Internet Explorer Development Programmatically reading Cookies on Windows Vista using .NET?

  My toolbar (as referenced in my other posts) has a "Login" link on it, that dynamically changes to "Logout" if my user is currently logged into the website the toolbar is tied to. This code works fine in 9x, 2k and XP: string currentUser = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("USERPROFILE"); string[] cookieFiles = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(currentUser + \\Cookies , "*" + myHost + "*"); However, in my Vista Ultimate beta this code explodes saying, "Access is denied." On further investigation, there are no cookies in this folder. A different post suggested they were in User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies, but I can't seem to find them there either. ...Show All

• .NET Development line ending problem

  Hi, I get data from an oracle database (8i) by filling a dataset. <ds.fill>. When I check the data in Oracle, the lines ends with "0D 0A"(CR/LF).

The only way to terminate the job is with the "Stop" button on the Toolbar. Anyone know how I can get these back Thanks. ...Show All
