    - creating website programmatically using C# Hi, I have written some code in C# to programmatically create a website and an application pool. Both seems to be getting created alright with whatever settings I have applied. However, when I fire a request to the website, I get a "page can not be displayed" message". I get nothing in the event viewer logs. I read somewhere that from website properties > Home Directory > Application Settings, if I remove and recreate the application pool, website starts serving requests. This DOES work but I am unable to figure out how to accomplish this from my code. When I checked Metabase.XML file of IIS before and after doing this change manually, only change I noticed that following gets added inside <IIsWebVirtualDir>. UNCPassword="49634462500000000600000040000000bd77b5e56b3f000048866b15ac840f0bc531565bfc2a1b5c6eb77c9661f527ba8edd7344f93776e7cf6ae118bcdb8db8a6ea143d7ae1d03c8672ac2c84bd677cd3fde3c37cf6e6a0" However, my app pool is running under "local system" identity. So this string might correspond to some default encrypted string. Does anyone know how to get it working from my code? Thanks, Mandar Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232972

    - 2.0 program creates instance of programs of different dotnet version Dear All, I think it is a common problem in upgrading program from one DotNet framework to another. You may not have sufficient time to upgrade all the programs at one time and thus will upgrade and deploy them phase by phase, right? In my case, we have developed a program (2.0) which acts a common access point of all these programs. It uses CreateInstance method to initalize program as follow: Dim asm As System.Reflection.Assembly asm = System.Reflection.Assembly.LoadFrom(<Full path of DLL>) Dim ty As Type = asm.GetType(<Full Name of Class>) obj = Activator.CreateInstance(ty) However, I encountered the following error at CreateInstance() for 1.1 programs: System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException {"Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation."} Data {System.Collections.ListDictionaryInternal} HelpLink Nothing InnerException {System.IO.FileNotFoundException} Message Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

    - Console Application in .NET When I select File->New->Project, and then if I pick "Console Application", it automatically creates a file, "Program.cs". After I fill in some code in the Main method, the content of "Program.cs" is below: class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { double d = 45.66778; d = RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces(d); } double RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces(double val) { string decimal_adjusted = val.ToString("N4"); double val_adjusted = double.Parse(decimal_adjusted); return val_adjusted; } } However, this won't compile. The error is: "An object reference is required for the nonstatic field, method, or property 'Program.RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces(double)'" I must create a new class such as "MyNumeric", and add the method "RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces" to the class, "MyNumeric". Then I have to create in "Main" an object such as "mn" and use "d = mn.RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces(d);" It seems that I'll have to access the method "RoundToTwoDecimalPlaces" from an object instead of accessing it directly from the same class "Program". This doesn't make sense to me. Anyone comments on this? Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232960

    - Recovering jsc.exe How can I recover (restore) jsc.exe? I am using XP Pro. Silly me, I somehow overwrote my copy of jsc.exe, so now it is zero length. I was trying to make an nmake file to compile JScript .Net files and I must have done something wrong. If you don't know what nmake is then just ignore that. If you say that JSCript is not compiled, then you are just not familiar with JScript .Net. The folder that has my copy of jsc.exe is in is: S:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 If it is possible to do a repair install of .Net, then say so and I will try to figure it out. Otherwise, is there someplace I can get the correct copy of jsc.exe? Is there another newsgroup or forum that would be more appropriate for this question? I know about the newsgroup: microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.jscript but it gets very little use. Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232938

    - dynamic loaded ascx delegate event not firing in parent form I have am dynamically loading a web user control based on the click of a tab strip I load the default control for the first tab in the page load event after checking page is not postback. After that the controls are loaded/unloaded based on the SelectionChanged event for the tab strip and again in Page load because with a dynamic load viewstate has to be reloaded. I have a datalist in the user control and I am trying to create the delegate so the parent can handle the click of the edit button in the user control. Honestly I am not very good at event delegation the code complies but I never get the command to execute on the parent in the child control site.ascx I set up the datalist public event with code below public partial class Site : System.Web.UI.UserControl { public delegate void myItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e); public event myItemCommand dlSiteItemCommand; override protected void OnInit(EventArgs e) { InitializeComponent(); base.OnInit(e); } private void InitializeComponent() { } protected void dlSite_ItemCommand(object source, DataListCommandEventArgs e) { if (dlSiteItemCommand != null) dlSiteItemCommand(source, e); } protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { //get the data and fill the datalist } in the parent (Detail) I try to bind to the event in the Site.ascx When the page loads in the parent the procedure LoadUserControl() is called and in it after I dynamically load the correct control, I caste the generic control to an instance of Site so I can see the public event I created. Thats where I have got it wrong I am SOOOOO confused. The binding does not work when I click the edit button in the child datalist I never break into the event that is bound on the parent Below is parent code. Please I not this is too long an explanation but I have been trying and reading a long time.

    - PRB: DataTable.GetErrors.CopyToDataTable() Doesn't Copy the Column Errors I have a DataTable object and I iterate through the rows setting errors on columns when I find something wrong. At the end, I want a table that just contains the errored rows. So, I used MyTable.GetErrors.CopyToDataTable(MyErrorTable, LoadOption.OverwriteChanges) to get the table I wanted. Unfortunately, and frustratingly, MyErrorTable doesn't have the column errors set. I've tried a couple of ways to transfer them, but it is prooving difficult. Can anyone think of a cunning way to get the errors as well? I have tried finding the row in the original table in order to copy the column errors separately, but I have so far been unsuccessful.

    - Please help ... problem with DEP is driving me crazy! Hi, I have a folder in My Documents which contains a digital scrapbooking kit, and whenever I click on the folder I get the dreaded DEP message ... it is a paid for kit, and therefore ? unlikely to be a problematic file, but I'm so fed up with it that I'd like to just delete the thing ... the problem is, I can't delete it because the DEP thing happens before I get the chance to delete it! Grrrrr! :) This happened before, (with a kit from the same designer), and it took me the entire weekend to fix it and nearly gave me a nervous breakdown ... eventually a friend showed me a program which deleted the files on rebooting, but I can't use that this time, as it is necessary to right click on the actual file, (not just the folder), and I can't get at it!

    - secure method calls Hi; I Posted this on public.dotnet.security recently and it driving me nuts, can anyone please help me? I have a "special" requirement that only certain methods from certain classes can only be invoked from certain web apps (on our intranet). Othwerwise, it should raise security exception. I dont have any experience with code acces security so I started reading msdn and stumbled on SiteIdentityPermission class and I think that could be it. Maybe I was wrong becaouse it doesnt work. So, now i have in my AssemblyInfo.cs following : [assembly: SiteIdentityPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.RequestMinimum, Site = "http://Myserver/MyTrustedSite/")] And, just before method body I have : public class MyClass { [SiteIdentityPermissionAttribute(SecurityAction.Demand, Site = "http://Myserver/MyTrustedSite/)] static public void DoSomething() { ... and, it doesnt work, method DoSomething can be called from any other web site. What I am doing wrong? How can I make this method secure so that it could be called only from http://Myserver/MyTrustedSite/ for example? If I wasnt clear enough, my shared assembly and that web site are on the same server. Assembly is local assembly for now, but when I put it in gac I want to make sure that only one specific aspnet web site should be able to use these secure methods. I should be, it certainly sounds trivilal, but it isnt. There is no clear example in documentation or internet. Did anyone ever needed this? Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232888

    - V.Studio 2003 - unable to edit Crystal Report Using V.Studio .net 2003 and .Net Framework v1.1, I have successfully created a number of Crystal Reports (v9.1.5 is bundled with it) that use the cross-tab object, and all was copacetic: for some time now, the users have been using the asp.net app to access and generate the reports OK. Recently my boss asked me to modify the cross-tab to add a formula. In V.Studio, this is accomplished by right-clicking the crosstab obj and selecting "crosstab expert". For some reason, nothing happens when I right click the crosstab and select "crosstab expert". The crosstab expert does not appear, nor is there an error message in the Console. In fact nothing happens for any of the right click selections. V.Studio is not locked: I can do other things in it, and I can build successfully. I tried other reports, and the same problem exists. I restored from backup the .RPT file and associated .aspx.cs and .res files, but the problem persists. Q: I think its something in V.Studio, but what? How can I get this crosstab expert editing functionality back again? Something is "stuck" (for lack of a better word). Q: Where are formulas stored? I did a hex dump of the .rpt file but could not find the formula definition in .rpt file. A dump of the .pdb shows nothing either. I have only been backing up files from the inetpub\wwwroot\<appname> directory, and restoring these does not resolve the problem I am afraid that I might have missed some files in my backups that are in another directory, but which one(s)?

    - Adding Files/Links To Projects I am a hobbyist programmer, using C# and VS2008 and writing desktop apps. I am trying hard to take a modular approach to avoid re-inventing the wheel but I'm finding it a bit frustrating. For instance I have a ListViewEx class (based on a ListView) which has in-place editing and a sorter based on column content. It uses custom column headers and custom ListViewItems. In turn the ListViewEx may have a further class base on it and so on. It really came home to me when I set up a test app this afternoon to try and build a new class, I ended up adding links to about 30 files just to run a test. I appreciate that I could compile them into a class library but each time they are used I come across another property/function that I need and it is much easier to change the source from a project and re-compile than to have to open and re-compile half a dozen class libraries. The thought of doing this for a living where there may be links to hundreds rather that dozens of files is horrifying. What do other people do about this? I was very disappointed not to find a #include directive in C#. Is there a way I can structure things so that I can link to all files in a directory for instance, rather than to each individual file in the directory? I would appreciate any thoughts. -- Jeff Gaines Damerham Hampshire UK All those who believe in psychokinesis raise my hand. Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232834

We will prefer not make local references of the dependent assemblies (i.e. assemblies will need to be exists in solution installation folder) so that we can update the dependent assemblies if required without updating each solution. Example: Assembly1: depend on Assembly2 (strong named) & Assembly3 (weak named). Assembly1 added to the GAC. Do we need to add the Assembly2 to the GAC as well? The Assembly3 is not strong named, how we will manage the Assembly3? Does each solution will need the local copy of the Assembly3 or can we add to the "c:\program files\shared" and manage it centrally? Hope this make sense and thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    - Why is the Tooltip Bug Still not Fixed in VS2008? I have to take this personally now. Tooltips have been flakey since the dawn of .NET, but to still have to put up with a disappearing tooltip in VS 2008 is getting beyond a joke. Tooltips have always done this, so isn't it about time they were fixed? I have a tooltip that I assign to a button control on my form. I hover over the button and up pops the tooltip. I move away and the tooltp fades. I hover again, and back comes the tooltip. Great. So now I click the button, and the next time I hover: no tooltip. Never to be seen again. They did this in 2002, 2003 and 2005. And now 2008. Does anyone have a workaround, or will I have to roll my own yet again? Thanks for any help. Charles Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232804

    - Excel / .Net: Extract a given Range into Picture or X(HT)ML? Hello there, Is there any -reliable- way to extract certain, given ranges in excel files into either a picture (each) or into proper xhtml? I am asking because I am currently automating a document transformation from several hundred thousand xhtml datasets into a .pdf via proper xml + xsl-fo transformation, but one of the constraints is to open all file:// links that point to .xls files to appear in the .pdf, too. Now what we had in our old, very very flacky system was opening the excel files one by one, select the range, use the semi- stable .CopyPicture(...) method of excel and paste that (from the clipboard!) into a graphic file etc etc. Which, apparently, is bullcrap. Now with all the xsl-fo transformation hotness, we still can use images -or- proper xml or xhtml for that, but I am kinda lost what else there is to do beside utilizing the clipboard for only a range of rows/cells in a excel file without loosing the format and the actual data. Does anyone know any reliable, native .net excel/biff reading libraries that could accomplish this? Or does the Office Interop actually provide a stable solution for that kinda scenario? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Cheers & thanks, -J=F6rg Tag: MSDN License to Purchase Tag: 232802

    - Crime Victim Charleston General Hospital CAMC Inc WV Speaks out August 08 About two weeks ago in WV Court of Claims at the State Capitol Building in Charleston WV in a small room on the third floor a woman filed a request for Victims Compensation after the death of her 97 year old grandmother. She was visiting her grandmother at CAMC Charleston General when a woman wearing scrubs pulled a gun on her outside the 3rd floor room where her grandmother was a patient. THe woman was disarmed and the gun unloaded after the visitor was forced to beg and pray for her life in front of other hospital employees. The victims were not permitted to call police but the visitor managed to text message a US Secret Service Agent shortly after the incident (no she did not think she was worthy of Secret Service Protection she had a business number to an Agent in the Press Room on L St in Washington The District of Columbia) The hospital seems to have gone to extreme lengths to cover up the crime. The hospital seems to have engaged in unprincipled behavior. Request a copy of the complaint from WV Crime Victim Compensation Fund, Court of Claims the ten page typed complaint and attachments detail eight causes of action the victim wishes to bring forward to the community concerning not only the hospitals influence on administration of justice but also the degree to which she and her grandmother were harassed following the crime. The grandmother had to be returned to the hospital again and again Although the visitor telephoned the police later in the day when she left the hospital after finding someone else to watch her grandmother the police refused to provide a case number for the report until after the hospital reported the crime. The hospital canceled emergency training, had not enforced security measures appropriate to the industry, yet is located in a terrible neighborhood, has numerous emergency room incidents, and advertises the facility to those who drive miles to place their vulnerable family members in the hospital. The hospital has a web site soliciting suggestions and requesting input but fails to respond which in some cases could mean import information about patients in transport do not reach ER personnel in other cases the hospital simply ignores suggestions to require visitor passes and sign in for patient visitors and on and on. WV is corrupt. The hospital administrator approves allocations for building a new wing and advertising the public hospital but has not kept pace with surgeons requests for state of the art equipment (attributed to more than a few botched surgeries) or for security protocols standard to the industry. Many nurses are recruited from a lower rung nursing school, Shermansville College and do not receive records from ER thus demonstrating the hospital has records management issues as well. A woman from Virginia went to visit her grandmother at a public hospital in West Virginia She had a loaded gun held at her head in front of witnesses on the third floor of the public hospital and was forced to beg and pray for her life by a woman wearing hospital scrubs. The hospital attempted to white wash the crimeâ?¦ witnesses are named in a ten page typed document at WV Court of Claims in the City of Charleston. When the visitor who was almost killed addressed compensation because the time she was required to remain in WV caused her to loose her job or leave her grandmother in the hands of a dangerously negligent staff the response was, "What do you think you're worth anyway?" She lost her job her apartment and her furniture waiting for a city government which would not release the date of the trial or whether the assailant remained at large. The position assumed by the victim is that her brains are worth at least the salary of the brain surgeons who are well paid to operate on peoples brains and that her grandmother's final days were made horrifying. CAMC should show accountability, but in WV the professionals at CAMC can bank on the fact only 7 % of the population between the ages of 25 and 65 have college degrees. The state is so concerned with their public image it is impossible for them to acknowledge the rural industrial slum of Charleston, the capitol city, reflects a mentality often found only in countries with repressive political regimes. I would like someone to make it not so much fun for the inner circle which dominates WV politics to bully critics and repress grievances. Look up Charleston General Hospital CAMC and ask them to reply to your questions concerning these statements. THe hospital does not respond to the needs of the community.. Ask Senator Rockefeller of WV is he has a business interest in the construction company building a new wing, when what the community really needs is better security and equipment. Ask him if the Hospital Administrator graduated from Shermansville before or after the college was accredited and why he doesn't have a degree in Hospital Administration. Ask Rockefeller how many shares he holds in local newspapers who never covered the crime in Oct 07, It takes a Village, to support issues of importance to everyone WV is a behind a Wall of Silence in Coal Country and Coal is Dirty Business. WV rewards Censorship and Silence. -- Threats of lawsuits or any attempt to restrict my right to free speech and report crime on the basis of information and belieft are retaliatory will result in a lawsuit against perpetrators.

Your going to want an MSDN Premium Subscription with Visual Studio Team
Suite, which by the way retails for over $10,000.
