You're correct; but what he is doing is COM interop

Does anyone know the best method to use to set the system time using C#? I am looking for the best way to programmatically set the time on my computer.
Thanks!

For this purpose I couldn't find anything more than API SetSystemTime().Its very hard for me to use win32 API in C# but for some jobs its the only way.

There are few suggestions i 've.
Try using "shell32" interop and
<br />
Shell32.shell app = new Shell32.shell();<br />
app.SetTime();<br />
This display the Date/Time properties..
If you still wanna change it programmatically , you cxan try running the time system command by creating a Process.
<br />
Process myProcess = new Process();<br />
ProcessStartInfo myProcessStartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo("time" "3");<br />
myProcess.StartInfo = myProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute;<br />
myProcess.Start();<br />

Hi
Here, "Time " refers to the internal system built command. Try creating a temp file called "time.bat" and write "time 2:45" into it ( just like how you specify the time command in the command line .. ) and use the file to create the startupinfo.
I am sure it will work.

I'm trying to make a custom installer. Is there some property of the OpenFileDialog that will let the user select a directory instead of a file? Or do I have to use a treeview to do this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, I must be an idiot. Isn't the point of a hashtable fast retrieval of objects based on their key? Cause I can't find any Get method for the Hashtable object in the .NET framework. The only examples in MSDN and on the web show the developer iterating or enumerating through the table, which pretty much defeats the whole purpose of using a Hashtable. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

object myStoredObject = myHashTable[myKey];

Sweet, thanks. I had no idea it was indexed like this.

No problem, its not obvious at first; basically if you see in the documentation that a collection has an Items property then you access it like an array in C#.

First of all, I'm not an expert on data access. But in my trials and tribulations with ADO.Net and ADO I've yet to find a way to update a database without it using SQL to do its work. It seems to me that if I have a large recordset that I create which I want to add to a database, it should be doable without the overhead of converting to SQL and then having the DBMS unconvert it on its side. Is this possible with ADO.Net, and if so, how?
Let's say that I have a simple table in the database with 200 double-precision floating point fields. If at some point, I have 4,000 rows to add to the table (6,400,000 bytes of data) how can I add this data to the database as efficiently as possible? It seems to me that converting everything to a text command in SQL when I already have the data formatted as a 4000x200 table is inefficient.

Convert everything to a text file and use the BCP (bulk copy) utility. This is the fastest way to upload to a SQL Server database (in reasonable servers, I got about 100,000 rows/second).
The second fastest way, much slower, but much more flexible is using DTS.

I was just thinking : how I can get the file structure for any software? for example if I want to read Lotus Notes nsf files, Brio Explorer, etc. Is there a way to discover how the file structure was built?

Hello everybody!
I would like to convert a Bitmap object (System.Drawing.Bitmap) to an Icon object (System.Drawing.Icon). I tried to use IconConverter class and ImageConverter class:
ImageConverter ic = new ImageConverter();
Icon i = (Icon)ic.ConvertTo(bitmap,Icon.GetType());
I got an exception:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.NotSupportedException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll
Additional information: 'ImageConverter' is unable to convert 'System.Drawing.Bitmap' to 'System.Drawing.Icon'.
Help me, please!
