    - Transpose Dataset? Hi, I have an aspx page that queries and displays data from an Excel file. However, the entries inside this Excel file are in columns instead of rows. Is there anyway I can "transpose" the dataset with ASP.Net? I know I can transpose the Excel file before uploading it, but I'd just like to find out if it can be done in ASP.Net. Thank you.

    - Is there a max limit on the number of Managed Windows Services that can be run on Win 2000 server? We have a situation where we keep hitting below error 1053 The .......... service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. whenever we try to start managed windows service above a specific number. On one server (SERVER1) it is 25, on another (SERVER2) it is 27. There are 9 different services, each 9 constitutes a release version. Were are trying to use the same server to handle multiple versions, however, we have this limitation where we can only get a max of 3 sites (3 x 9services) at best running. It does not matter which services are running, when we reach this limit no other managed service will start. If I stop one, I can start another. I don't believe it is a licensing issue, we do use Crystal however, the same issue occurs if I do not start those services that use the Crystal dll's. The environment is Windows 2000 server. Framework is 1.0. Any help on this is much appreciated. Rgds Yucel Tag: Start Up Tag: 95025

    - Regex parsing e-mail question. I basically am trying to match something like keyword: (the : and space is a marker. I want everything after that all the way up to the next Keyword: (where keyword HAS to begin a new line. I want everything before the next keyword. (\: ).*(\n[a-zA-z]) comes extremely close except for 2 things. The most important is that it is unable to match patterns where the "content" that I want spans multiple lines . For example in an e-mail it would skip over Received: from unknown (HELO barracuda.domain.com) (127.0.0.1) by 192.168.2.195 with SMTP; 24 Feb 2005 19:16:52 -0000 Also I am wondering if there is a way to specify that I want everything "after" the \: and before the \n .

    - MVP please help - WSAENOBUFS problem Hi, My application uses System.Net.Sockets.Socket class (asynchronously) to implement record sharing. There is a central task that accepts two way connections from multiple clients. There are usually 20-30 sockets open at a given time, but possibly as may as 50-60. As the client uses the software, it usually works fine for several hours, then slows down and eventually generates a WSAENOBUFS error (An operation on a socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full.) Pertinent information: 0) WSAENOBUFS is always reported by client task and never server task. 1) When a client shuts down, it does: Socket.Shutdown( SocketShutdown.Both ); Socket.Close(); 2) Sockets are opened by client and kept open for the life of the client. 3) Messages sent back and forth are always quite small, usually 40-160 bytes. An average of 40-50 messages in total per minute are sent at peak usage. 4) Maximum number of connecting tasks ranges from 4-25 or so. 5) Server task is always OK. This feels like a resource leak of some sort on the client side, but it seems as though the code is as per the documentation. Can anyone suggest what might be wrong or think of further investigation to undertake? Thanks in advance. Brian Hough Tag: Start Up Tag: 94993

    - Bug in ActiveDirectory access of .NET Framework Hi, I have an application in C# that manages users, shares and printers in the AD. This application sometimes runs on an error accessing the AD. This is not really reproducable, it happens often, but not always. Sometimes it runs on an error and later goes over the same code again and works. The error message is always a NullReferenceException on System.DirectoryServices.Interop.IAds.GetEx, for example: at System.DirectoryServices.Interop.IAds.GetEx(String bstrName) at System.DirectoryServices.PropertyValueCollection.PopulateList() at System.DirectoryServices.PropertyCollection.get_Item(String propertyName) at amt.user.UserManagement.getUserByDirectoryEntry(DirectoryEntry ADEntry) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\amt\sharp\user\UserManagement.cs:line 2098 at amt.user.UserManagement.getUserByProperty(String Property, String domain) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\amt\sharp\user\UserManagement.cs:line 1900 at amt.user.UserManagement.getUserBySAM(String SAM, String domain) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\amt\sharp\user\UserManagement.cs:line 576 at replication.RootDSEReplicator.checkUserReplicationStatus(AddEntry entry) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\amt\sharp\replication\RootDSEReplicator.cs:line 284 at replication.RootDSEReplicator.checkReplicationStatus(Object state) in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\amt\sharp\replication\RootDSEReplicator.cs:line 244 I haven't seen any pattern when this happens. The NulRef obviously doesn't happen in my code. It seems to happen in one case on this action: if(ADEntry.Properties["distinguishedName"].Value != null){ newUser.DN= ADEntry.Properties["distinguishedName"].Value.ToString(); } Any ideas what can cause this? What surprises me is, that the NullRef isn't thrown by my code, but from inside IAds. Regards Marco Tag: Start Up Tag: 94955

    - Webpage Authoring Currently authoring with Frontpage 2002 on Windows XP Pro. I have been using Visual Basic.net (because I can afford it) for desktop applications, but do not own the whole VS.net suite. I would like to author, and manage if possible, my website in the Visual Studio.net environment primarily because I have issues with Frontpage. Is it possible to build the whole site in the VS.net environment? I would rather remain with Microsoft than switch to Macromedia Dreamweaver and Homesite for web authoring tasks. What other VS.net products should I be looking at in order to build a slick, fastloading, and fully interactive website that includes XHTML code, XML and RSS feeds, and web based applications, or do I already have the resources I need?

    - Namespace usage I'm trying to figure out the best way to structure my code and how to use namespaces to organize it. I'm working on an application that will have a plugin architecture. It will have a main frontend application and some shared interfaces and utility classes. Then there will be the plugins themselves. The plugins will be standalone, so I don't need to include them in a namespace. However, I am thinking that I need a namespace for the main app and the shared assemblies. I've read through several books, and done some googling, but I haven't found anything that does much more than explain what namespaces are and then go on to describe the .NET namespaces. Nothing seems to explain the strategies of using namespaces in my own applications. Can anyone point me to some source of info on this? Thanks! Tag: Start Up Tag: 94947

    - HELP! Timeout when accessing Webservice. I have a solution that contains a web service and a web site. I was working on it all day Monday with no problems. Tuesday morning it stopped working, but ONLY when run from inside Visual Studio (VS). Now, when I run it from inside VS, my web site times out when trying to access the web service. The initial login page comes up OK so I enter my user name and password and hit enter, at that time the web site attempts to contact the web service, and that is when the time out error occurs. If I compile the solution and then load IE and access the website OUTSIDE of VS, everything works fine. After the timeout occurs my machine behaves very strangely. Applications that were already running continue to run, but I am unable to start any new applications even though the Start button continues to function. I cannot bring up the windows task manager and I cannot shut down windows. Ctrl-Alt-Del does nothing. My only option is to power the machine down. Here is what I have done so far to try to diagnose the problem (Note: nothing has helped!)... 1 - Restored a source backup from the weekend. 2 - Restored a source backup from last week. 3 - De-installed IIS and VS 2003, re-installed IIS and VS 2003. Because none of that helped, I then created a new solution. The first project was a web service called TestService with the following web method... <WebMethod()> _ Public Function TestMethod(ByVal YourName As String) As String Return "Hello " & YourName End Function ...and an asp web site with one page with one label with the following code... Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim WS As New localhost.TestService Me.Label1.Text = WS.TestMethod("Bob") End Sub After building the solution I load IE and go to http://localhost/testsite/webform1.aspx I get what I expected, a message saying "Hello Bob". But, from inside VS, I set the startup project to the web site and run it I STILL get a timeout accessing the web service. Any ideas? I can only think of one final option, and that is to rebuild the entire machine! RichardF Tag: Start Up Tag: 94945

    - Closing handle Hi, I've got the following problem: My current project consists of several clients and all of them use(read) a file, that is placed on a shared hard disk on one of my file servers (windows2k). So, every user that is logged on a computer the client software runs on needs access (exclusive) to this file. Now, the problem is, that sometimes the users leave the file in an open state - and do not close their handle - so no other client can access the file any longer. That's why I'm looking for a way to close all handles (even of remote clients) to a specific file "by violance". Is this possible? Thanks Peter Tag: Start Up Tag: 94918

    - Process.Start("http://www.microsoft.com") fails under Win2k Hi, I am trying to open a web page with the default browser from within a C# program. The code I am using is very simple: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.microsoft.com"); This works fine in WinXP, but not on Win2k. On Win2k this line throws an exception: "the system cannot find the file specified" (or something along these lines). The above code also work fine on Win2k if the default browser is NOT MSIE. I have also tried to run Windows Explorer instead of IE with the URL as a parameter. This works on Win2k, but surprisingly not always, and gives the same exception occasionally. Is there a workaround? Thanks, Vlad Tag: Start Up Tag: 94915

    - Reflection and XMLSerialization I have a C# App that allows users (other programmers) to load assemblies dynamically and invoke methods. The app itself uses a generic tools assembly (Tools.dll). If the user then uses the app to load the tools.dll assembly, any XML Serialization eventually called through Method.Invoke fails. I have verified this by simply removing Tools.Dll from the application and XML Serialization in the dynamically loaded tools.dll succeeds. The exception message is "Specified cast has failed." in the dynamically generatic XML serialization assembly. I expected the Assembly.LoadFrom might fail because the assembly was already loaded - however, tools.dll isn't loaded yet because it hasn't been used at that point in the program flow. I am confused as to why a reference to a DLL that isn't even loaded yet would cause XMLSerialization to fail. The pseudo code is as follows: // (Main app includes a reference to tools.dll - which is never loaded until this call:) Assembly assembly = null; try { assembly = Assembly.LoadFrom( "tools.dll" ); } catch( BadImageFormatException ) { // a regular DLL not an assembly - so skip it continue; } // blah blah blah - get the method the user wants to invoke from the assembly methodInfo.Invoke( assembly, null ); // if the method above calls Serialize or Deserialize, and exception is thrown. Simply removing tools.dll from the references list solves the problem - obviously however I need to use the tools provided in tools.dll so i can't do that. Somehow the reference to the assembly changes something however, I am lost and my google / usenet searches have failed me this time. Thanks, Todd Tag: Start Up Tag: 94912

    - DirectX interferes with ODBC? I have noticed a very strange effect that DirectX has on ODBC data storage. Storing a DateTime object in a database is normally not a problem, but once a Direct3D device is created the stored times only have a 5 minute resolution! A few steps are required to reproduce the problem. First create a Microsoft Access ODBC data source. Connect to it in the following way: OdbcConnection connection = new OdbcConnection( "DSN=TestDB" ); connection.Open(); Add a table with a single DateTime column: OdbcCommand cmd = new OdbcCommand( "CREATE TABLE TestData ( Stamp DATETIME )", connection ); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); Insert the current time: OdbcCommand cmd = new OdbcCommand( "INSERT INTO TestData(Stamp) VALUES (?)", connection ); cmd.Parameters.Add( new OdbcParameter( "Stamp", OdbcType.DateTime ) ); cmd.Parameters["Stamp"].Value = DateTime.Now; cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); So far everything works as expected. Now create a Direct3D device: PresentParameters para = new PresentParameters(); para.Windowed = true; para.SwapEffect = SwapEffect.Discard; Device dev = new Device( 0, DeviceType.Hardware, this, CreateFlags.SoftwareVertexProcessing, para ); Insert a new date/time in the database and you will notice that the stored time is no longer correct. Does anyone have a clue about what is going on? For the record: I'm using Framework 1.1 and DirectX 9.0c. Tag: Start Up Tag: 94909

    - How to read a partially locked file Hi! I'm having problems reading a partially locked file. The writer app (a 3rd party app) writes new data at the end of the file every second and sets a file lock for the last record which could be 160 bytes. My app (the reader app) tries to read the new data but since FileStream is buffered I get IOException "the portion is locked by another process" when trying to read an unlocked area of the file. It seems that the buffer size is 4kb. The result is a lock exception when I try to read 1 byte that is within 4 kb before the real lock and that is not nice! Of course the FileStream should not throw a lock exception when reading an unlocked byte with a lock 3-4 kb ahead. Using an unbuffered FileStream should propably solve the problem, but I cannot find such stream in .NET. The nearest I can get is to specify the buffer size when creating the FileStream, but when specifying 0 it well be set to 8 automatically which means that I cannot read the last 8 bytes before the lock. And of course using unbuffered stream slows down a bit. Obviously there is a bug in the buffered stream, it should not throw when reading ahead. Any ideas someone ? Some code: Dim fInfo as New FileInfo(filename) Dim fs as FileStrem fs = fInfo.Open(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite) Dim br as New BinaryReader(fs) br.BaseStream.Position(<an unlocked address>) br.ReadByte() ==> IOException: "The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file." -- Regards, Lars JÃ¶nson Tag: Start Up Tag: 94902

    - Using winforms to update a server object to play tic tac toe I am writing an application to play tic tac toe using two winforms that access a game object on the server. I want the forms to be able to update the game object and poll the game object to see if it is that forms turn. Once it is a players turn, I would like that form to have focus to start it all over again until the game over flag is set. I have done some work with .NET Remoting, and Web Services but I'm a little stumped on how to best update the server object and poll it for changes from the two winforms.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Server is running 2000 server, Vs.Net not installed, and .Net 1.0.

Hi,

Im not sure if im posting in the right place , here is the problem , I have
some code (written in .net) that is started up when the PC starts and runs
forms full screen with no borders. The problem is that, the program is
hooked up to a wireless network to the server, but if my program is loaded
at startup the wifi network doesnt connect, meaning that the program cant
get access to the server.

If the program is taken out of startup and loaded manually, the wireless
network has enough time to connect and everyhting is fine.

What im hoping is that there is some way of delaying the load on startup or
any other work around for this

Thanks

How about displaying a splash screen until you detect network connectivity?
