It seems from everything I've been told and seen so far that you can't access a sql server through anything, but WCF. Is that really true?
The application arcitect at work demonstrated a very simple app that used isolated storage and he said he couldn't tell it the location of the actual data storage. When he did it didn't put it in the path he specified.
Your thoughts.

You can access SQL Server through SOAP 1.1, i.e. a web service (whether it's a WCF Web Service or a good old fashioned WebMethod type).
This[^] should tell you where things are stored with Isolated Storage.

That's what my point is though. You have to hit a web service and cannot directly access the sql server with ADO.
Thanks for the link.

True - but when you think about it, that's a logical thing to want to do. Typically, your database will be behind a Firewall in a DMZ. This means that you really should have something in the way so that the DB doesn't have to be exposed to the outside world.

Most of the web apps here aren't exposed to the outside world. They are for internal use only.
I do see your point about the DMZ, though.

Hello,
I'm writing a windows application that uses the Amazon FPS web service. I would like to use WCF, though I don't have much experience with it yet. I thought that by adding a web reference to the service WSDL, that a proxy class would be created for me. The web reference was added, and I can browse the types defined in the WSDL in the object browser, but Visual Studio did not generate a proxy class.
What's the best way to proceed? Do I have to use svcutil to generate the proxy code?
Thanks!
Ian

You need to add a service reference.
Right click the project and [Add Service Reference]
Pop the service url into the address box and hit [Go]
Give it a name and click [OK]
...

Is this available in VS 2005? I couldn't find an options for adding a service reference. There were two options: Add Reference, and Add Web Reference.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Once I installed the VS 2005 enhancements for .Net 3.0 (WPF,WCF) I had the "Add Service Reference" options.
Thanks for your help, Jammer, as it pointed me in the right direction.

No problem fella ... I've only ever worked with .NET 3.5 / VS2008 ... never had the joy of using the VS2005 extensions.

Hi Everyone,
I am working on a project on VS 2008. It requires to generate reports based on predefined templates.
I will not be using the Crystal reports or the SQL reporting services.
IS there a way I can design a template and create report using WPF and VS2008
Any suggestion will be a great help to my project.
Thanks everyone,
Kasi

Kasi,
Getting data on a form is super easy in WPF.
However, you may want to direct your energy towards actually printing the report on paper and exporting the report to .PDF or other file format.
This is why, SQL Reporting Services shines. It does all this for you.

I have a Silverlight application and I want to add some DHTML to it.
Does anybody know if it is possible and how this can be done?
anyone had experience with something like that?
thanks

Hi
there is the easy way and there is the hard way.
I've seen a n example that shows a div above the silverlight but I diden't like it.
I used Visual webGui platform that allows me to do things in silverlight much faster like using there HTML box to display html inside Silverlight.
you should check it out.. www.visualwebgui.com
good luck

I have created a WPF Browser Application in VS2008. I've then added to XBAP to my webpage in a IFRAME
<iframe height="600" width="800" src="http://server/application/ClientBin/WPFApplication.xbap" />
This works fine, and displays the WPF. The problem is, IE never seems to clear its cache and get the latest XBAP once I've updated the WPF control. It always looks at the old control.
I've set my cache to always update every time I visit a page, and I've also cleared my history etc but it still looks at the old version.
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Regards,
Gareth.

Open up a Visual Studio Command Prompt, then run "mage -cc". Basically, as long as the version is the same it will probably not pull the updated version.
For more information go here[^]
Take care,
Tom
