I would use two SQL statements, one to get the place ID from its name, then the big insert which needs the result of the former statement.
And I would:
- never publish code in a proportional font (they invented PRE tags to get readable code here);
- not build such complex statements; why not building a string first, so you can see it, log it, whatever;
- not take user input without validating it;
- use SqlParameters.
And finally you could consider creating a stored procedure to do this.

Presently working with C# programming book and using Visual Studio 2008 Tem Suite. One exercise requires that I insert the text:
MessageBox.Show ("Contact List 1.0. \nWritten by: Your Name", "About");
Although I have done this once successfully, I have not been able to repeat because the text within the parentheses is now shown in RED. The message box appears containing the notification "ClassSystem.String Represents text as a series of Unicode characters"
I am a novice and have tried to search this but have not found information to correct this issue. Guidance sought

There is nothing wrong with this code.

It's red by default. It's called "syntax coloring" so you can easily see that the item is a string. If you do not like the red color, you can change it from your Tools->Options menu item.
Why is common sense not common?

The text being shown in red is just Visual Studio's way of telling you that it is a literal string. MessageBox is a light blue because it's a class. Show is black because it's a function, and so on.
The "Class System.String..." message that appears when you hold the mouse pointer over it is Visual Studio telling you about Strings. If you hold the mouse over MessageBox or over Show you will see other helpful messages about them.
What issue is it that you are trying to correct?

The first attempt at the code insertion did not demonstrate a red font and so when the exercise was repeated I assumed the red font was an indication of a problem. I have visited other forums where such queries are met with hostility or ridicule. I am truly appreciative of the responses I get here.
Cordially,

Depends on the question here -- and timing.

It's strange that the first attempt wasn't colored red. Best not to waste time trying to figure out why not, I suppose. I wish you success in your future coding exercises.

As mentioned, these are the default colors for the text editor. You can always change and customize these colors as described here[^].

Hi,

You'll probably want internal. Check here[^]

I used internal keyword for class2 and it met my requirements. Thanks

If you use the reply feature at the bottom of a specific message it goes to the person who wrote it.
In this case, I replied to your message about internal, and the system sent you an email.
Your message replied to your original message, so no email was sent.
If you had replied to V's message he would have got one.
It's not important this time - but in future it's worth remembering as it can speed up responses. If you get a email, you can respond quickly. If you don't then it's next time you visit the page before you notice a reply.

Before checking V's message, "internal" solution came to my mind and it was working. So, for others(people facing the same issue) sake, I posted reply to my message. By that time, I didn't check latest replies.

Don't worry I've seen your post  .
But idd, if you want me to get the mail from your message, reply to my message instead of your own.
good that you solved the problem.

What you describe is normally called a Splashscreen.
If you search the articles on this site using that term you will find many examples such as A Pretty Good Splash Screen in C#[^]. I am not suggesting that is the best one, it is just the first from the list when I searched.
The other suggestion of using a backgroundworker could also be useful, in which case you might make your search term backgroundworker splashscreen.

This[^] blog might help you to work that out. If not, then I found that by using vs2010 how to add a template as a search phrase in my favourite search engine. It gives over half a million hits, give it a try.

Hi,
I would like to add a small box with ads (configurable by admin) on a Windows Application.
Has anyone tried one?
Thanks.

Telerik offers an adrotator for Windows Forms - see here[^].
This behaves similar to the image adrotator control that is used in ASP.Net to display various add images as a user is viewing a page.
Other than this, you can use a picture box and a timer to build your own simple adrotator custom control that you can plugin to your application.

My task is to convert an existing PHP application into a C# windows forms application. The PHP application displays report based on several criteria. This report is a mix of some text and some tables all stacked and centered in the form.
Please suggest how I can do this in a C# desktop application.
